[2.1] Non crit self cast IW Bladefall: 50k+dps|5k+life|8k+armor // Cheap
|
So i have been playing this build from about mid cruel. It has carried me all the way to T11 maps. The build feels very strong and is cheap to gear. It's also very easy to progress from no gear to atleast mid level gear. It feels smooth all the way.
Note: I'm not a POE expert, just doing some trial and error and stumbled on this. Current Stats: 35K unbuffed/53K buffed DPS 8.2K armour 4.9K Life Tree: Gear: Mings is very nice for the damage boost and chaos resist. The doryani is very much a placeholder item. A triple resist with life is better. I use a dagger for whirling blade. Shield needs more resists, shopping for one at the moment.

Gem links:
Spoiler
Bladefall - IW - Echo - Conc effect - Controlled destruction
6th link will probably be empower. CWDT - Immortal call - Increased duration - Bloodrage Extra defense and bloodrage for the charges. I use 4, gives me +25% dps. CWDW - curse on hit - some skill - warlords mark Leech+endurance charges All the other links are work in progress and not essential to the build. Other thoughts:

CWDT with warlords is unreliable. It works better on blaphemy, but we lose 25% dps because we can't use hatred in that setup. I'm still debating if it's worth it.
Conc effect adds huge amounts of DPS but the reduced AOE is noticable. On easier maps i replace it with added chaos or physTOlightning for phys reflect maps. I think this build is able to do 75k+ buffed dps with end-game gear and a scepter instead of a shield. Last edited by blastarus#5996 on Dec 24, 2015, 3:04:37 AM

Why can't you use Hatred in a Blasphemy setup? Not enough mana to cast Bladefall?
First 90 in POE in Essence League using a build that was definitely not Meta BV Pathfinder :V

Yup. With blasphemy and hatred i got 157 mana left.
My bladefall needs 58 mana per cast and i cast every 0.27 sec. So 157 is too small of a buffer. Running hatred+arctic armour now. The added defense is nice. |

What order for passive skills would you recommend while leveling

I have 6.5k ehp and 70k+ dps on a 5L on my hybrid crit caster. Bf gem is only lvl18/0q. Going non crit is just a stupid choice in this game in general...sadly.
