Hi there, hi Enki!
Is this build really so squishy and glasscannon? or may be I doing something wrong...

Im 84lvl so 4k life for now
All`s good with damage, but im actualy oneshoot in any boss/legion fight on hight tier maps
May be someone can checked my character?


Hey Arcanelover, i'm not a veteran or anything but maybe i can give you some pointers:

I don't see any assasin's mark on hit modifier on any of your gear? this should help you on some legion encounters atleast. I see your gloves are giving you some resistances, so in your case i would probably look for a ring with assasin's mark on hit.

In your talent tree you have gone for the late game talents before taking some potentially more defensive nodes, if you opt out of crackling speed and throatseeker (by the witch starter zone) and go for resourcefulness and the alchemist nodes to improve your flasks, furthermore you're also missing some jewel sockets which can lead you to more dmg and +max hp depending on the setup that you wish to use.

Also since your dmg is fine for now, you can opt out of using dual wand setup and maybe go with an Unyield flame shield which grants you more life/resists then your current setup. When you start to gather more currency you can attempt to craft a nice set of wands with a lot of cast speed which really impacts your lightning warp speed, which can really save you on some bosses, atleast thats my personal experience.

I hope some of these points can help you, good luck!

Jup jup!

GGG please remove that comment, it's not relevant anymore and the player publicly quit years ago. It's so old, there's not even a report button to get some attention to this!

Leveling this Build

Extensive Version

Your journey through the ten acts can be seen as an extensive tutorial, slowly confronting you with the majority of game mechanics and increasingly more difficult enemies to learn to counter.

This section will help you while playing through the ten acts and shows the recommended
passive tree progression, gem setups, quest progression and exp farming zone for each act.
Keep in mind that it may also include some major storyline spoilers, if you care about that.

If you want to explore zones or do quests not mentioned here, or even want to level with
a completely different skill then do that, this section is just an aid.

______________________________________________________________________

General Advices during Storyline

‣ Use a Lootfilter. You will soon realize that there's lots of redundant loot in this game, a good Lootfilter reduces screen clutter and also highlights potentially valuable or important drops.
Here's my custom version of Neversinks Lootfilter, you can further customize it if you want.

‣ Keep your Flasks updated. I recommend to start with 2x Life Flasks, 1x Mana Flask and
2x Quicksilver Flasks, switch to a quest reward Flask whenever the guide mentions it.

‣ Upgrade your gear. While not as relevant at first, it's important to look out for gear with solid life and resistance rolls. Ideally you want to have all three Elemental Resistances capped at 75% at the end of Act 3, only Chaos Resistance may be at whatever value.
Rare or Unique gear pieces are not always the best for this purpose, sometimes you're better off with Magic gear giving life and a single resistance.

You can easily craft your own gear, ideally on already 4-linked pieces you get from vendors or drops, however only use Orbs of Transmutation/Augmentation/Alteration at this point, everything else is a huge waste!

‣ The Crafting Bench allows to refine gear pieces with things such as resistances, attributes, life or mana. All crafts need to be unlocked first, scroll down at the Crafting Bench to see where missing recipes are located.

‣ Great Uniques for leveling are Lifesprig, Axiom Perpetuum, Goldrim, Wanderlust and Tabula Rasa, but prioritize a good lifepool and capped resistances!

‣ We don't use the full gem setup during the acts. If you happen to get a 5-linked or even 6-linked Intelligence-based gearpiece, check the Arc setup in Gem section to know what to add.

‣ Use Portal Scrolls and enter town to refill flasks during bossfights.

‣ Get all waypoints you can find. I mention specific waypoints you will definitely need, but generally it's recommended to get them all, since you never know if you may disconnect or need to get back to that zone for other reasons.

‣ If there's multiple gems listed to get, it means you're supposed to get one of those as quest reward and buy the rest from the gem vendor in town.

‣ The passive tree goals for each act are just a pointer, if you're short by 1-2 points or overleveled that's not a big deal.

Mapping & Bossfights

Spoiler

Mapping

Before you start mapping, make sure that you have:

"
‣ atleast 3.5k Life and 1k Mana

‣ Fire, Cold and Lightning Resistance capped at 75%

‣ all Spells and Movement Skills set to "attack without moving"

‣ the correct Pantheon powers activated (unlock extra powers as you map)

‣ a proper Flask setup (check the Flask section above)

‣ a way to sustain mana (check below)

Mana Sustain Options

‣ Hallowed Hybrid Flask or Eternal Mana Flask

‣ Mind of the Council

‣ Watcher's Eye with Lightning Damage leeched as Mana while affected by Wrath

Your first maps shouldn't be an issue with this, just keep on progressing through the Atlas.
Here's a comprehensive mapping guide you can read up on for more information.

Two more things you should read up on are monster mods and map mods to understand what everything does and how they may affect enemies or yourself.

Your character will naturally progress while mapping - your gems level up, which is especially important for the Arc gem itself, your character levels up and you will build up currency for upgrades, even if you just do Chaos Recipe. Don't focus on "what DPS should I have at this level?" or such, as long as you play and follow what the guide says, you can't do anything wrong.

Try to find a good rhytm between Arc, Lightning Warp and flask usage. All enemies give you some cues and time to react. Very often, their skills also lock target on the position you're at during their animation start, so in that case simply move to avoid all damage. Sometimes you can also use the environment as defense and last but not least, don't forget that Arc is a ranged skill.

______________________________________________________________________

Bossfights

The same logic pretty much applies to bossfights - they're all mechanical, so your focus should be on learning how to play around them.

Usually a good strategy is to drop Orb of Storms at their feet, then circle them with Lightning Warp while casting Arc between each warp. If the boss gives you enough time to damage for a few seconds straight, drop Orb of Storms, use your damage flasks and spam Arc.

POELab has a section with guides & GIFs for all Endgame Bosses. The Map Reference Guide covers all map bosses but isn't updated for 3.7 yet, boss attribution is still correct but most tiers are off.

For highest tier bossfights, I recommend atleast:

"
‣ 4.5k Life and 1.5k Mana

‣ 500k sustained Shaper DPS

‣ (surprise) 75% Elemental Resistances

‣ Leech Watcher's Eye or Mind of the Council

‣ some additional Attack- and Spell Dodge

‣ upgraded Pantheon powers

‣ a good Flask setup


______________________________________________________________________

Mapmods

While we can run all mapmods, decide for yourself if it's a good idea in that combination or against that boss. Things that are usually harmless can really start to hurt with the wrong mods!

The following mods require special attention:

"
all Curses: Counter them with your Warding Flask

Projectiles chain: Can be completely ignored with Soul of Lunaris upgrade

Chance to avoid Elemental Ailments: Worst one for us, huge damage & safety loss

Elemental Equilibrium/Resistance/Hexproof/reduced Damage from Crits: Damage loss

Less Recovery Rate: Lowers our recovery from Leech, Regeneration and Flasks

No Regeneration: May require a backup Mana Flask, play cautiously

No Leech: Requires more Life Flask usage, play cautiously

Dodge is unlucky: Safety loss, play cautiously

@splitando
Wave of Conviction + Increased Duration instead of Armageddon Brand and Blind.

Assassin's Mark on Hit still beats out Mark of the Shaper, and you can get some resistances, mana and other stuff on it too.

@Donnamartin347
I'd recommend a 5L Inpulsa and buy a secondd one, 6s it and then spam all fusings you find until it 6Ls. Also save up for a Watcher's Eye with Mana Leech, Lv21 Vaal Arc and a good DPS amulet, then continue from there in the Upgrade Order Guide.

@Hoopitywhatwhat
Your gear is pretty decent for SSF. I'd recommend to chance Sadist Garbs (which you probably do already) and spam prophecies until you have a Mind of the Council. This can take a while, on my SSF char it took me 5 tries and until Lv98. Also try to craft some shaped gloves and a Stygian Vise next, and run some Merc or Uber Labs for boot enchant.

@spooky_myself
Sounds like an overall loss honestly, the cold/fire damage parts are not really high enough to be worth scaling unless you really go all out on it. Still, with how cheap Inpulsa's is you won't benefit much from shatters and bosses still won't freezelock.

@phatschtuff
The build never used Warlord's Mark to begin with. Leech comes from Ascendancy and Watcher's Eye respectively Mind of the Council (not literal mana leech, I know).

Unleash was mostly meant as a way to improve clearing without Inpulsa's, before I could know how cheap it will be this league. If you check the bold line at the beginning of my guide and then my Legion char, i'm not even using it anymore. Will very likely get kicked out of the build if I continue into 3.8.

@duabijitelur
Yes, all the videos linked in this guide.

@simenthora
Lightning Spire Trap rather. Used it for the 3.6 version and it's awesome for stationary bosses and absolute shit for mobile bosses and bosses with any AoE that destroy them before the traps go off.

@ArcaneLover
Warmy already mentioned lots of things. Jewel sockets are extended lifenodes and one of the reasons why I recommend to take them before some of the nodes you already took, and the Alchemist nodes are really strong both offensively and defensively. Replace the Divine Life and Quicksilver Flasks with a Catalysed Eternal Life and Experimenter's Quartz Flask. Use the right Pantheon and upgrade them if you don't already do this. Eventually, multimodded Tiger Hooks can add another 12% attack dodge chance if you wanna improve tankiness further.

@TheChosenOne_
I've done all major bossfights and all challenges I currently have within the first ~2 weeks of Legion, haven't played since. Corrupted Guardians, Shaper and Uber Atziri were technically done on a 4L (5L Inpulsa with Hypothermia, didn't notice my Cold Damage jewel was still "with Shields" after switching to DW so Hypo barely ever did something.)

Would we need super expensive (to me) gear like 5+ex for each gear or can we spend 50c or less on each piece of gear and still beat anything in the game?

6L Inpulsa, Lv21 Arc, Mana Leech Watcher's Eye and some decent gear and of course a little practice. Took me less than 2ex early league (way higher prices than now) to do everything but Uber Elder, could've very likely done him too but by the time I got my last memory frag, I was already able to afford my multimodded weapons and double Wrath Watcher's Eye.
twitch.tv/enki91
Where would you recommend new(er) players to farm and how long should we expect to take to make good money from everything including selling drops, currency drops, etc.? Just keep on doing highest tier maps we can handle and do them for dozens of hours?

Hello!

This is my first post and I am a completely new to Path of Exile (but not to Hack'n'Slash genre). Enki's Arch Witch build is the first to help me get to know the game - although I do not stick to it 100%.

What do you think about using such a ring with this build? Mark of Submission with Conductivity gem? Combined with Essence Worm + Wrath, it seems to complement it?

Hi!

Kind of new to PoE and have been playing this build since the legion start. I feel like I'm currently standing still and having a hard time seeing where I should out my effort in terms of gear upgrade. I'm trying to get Oskarm, but I feel like my weapons and helmet are bad and I do not use all of the gems as is.

I've been reading this guide like every day but it feels like my mind is melting right now.

Would be so happy for some feedback!

thanks!
