[2.0] CI Elemental Cleave possibility?
Just a quick question for anyone who has attempted something similar. I was looking over this CI Sweep build: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1181968/my-posts/1/page/1 (that can also start from the witch area), and was wondering if it would be feasible to do a flat-ele cleave build from it instead of using sweep?
It would sort of take the approach of this slightly outdated Ele Cleave build in terms of offense: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/92670 (leaving cleave at level 1, lots of reservation to run as many flat ele buffs as possible, etc). Does anyone have a good reason why I -shouldn't- do this? Am I going to hate my life? | |
ofc ci ele cleave is possible i'm not sure if you would be forced to go crit or not but aoe nodes are mandatory since cleave has 18 radius. you might also look into doing zo to make up for not getting life potions.
you might mess around with something like this https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAwUA-d2LjEqYzGaUXMBmRUet8TwFMtEYXe98n9_r7jzvmjsc3KcImuBo8oKbuJOPRkWdQ2N8Duw47SAo-puhU1Kaz6dVKU-Fe1fiV8naOoLH99dxTVug5CKePGZUd-UNfIGv-eiESBpsjHbqurjQaHRca_fBtzG0DLEF2mKycMrTlKBilSpTvoqTJ6Ev74hsC_k3IvTXz20ZSbERUDW5pysdT1H7zRYfGH_GwcVYWlIpVeBGcYMJ4Ygdqv5J7Bhwu9kTL2-vbAthxq4MXxynU6XDbRhWl_RSUz1fLL8V14auVmM= gear you would look for would be armor/es with wep ele damage on pieces that can have it for a chest preferentially at least 300 es idealy 400+ and 500+armor as for weapons flat ele aps swords/axes auras might look like wrath clarity and vitality maybe purity's for some bosses keep in mind that auras don't give as much ele damage as they previously did Last edited by mageslay3r on Sep 6, 2015, 8:50:28 PM

Thank you sir, you have inspired me. I was tempted to reach down for the increased melee range by duelist to compensate for cleave's sub-par reach, but this probably makes more sense and is more efficient. I might grab the gem for turning life nodes into ES if I feel like dabbling around templar or marauder.
