BUILD 1: RIP 100% Chaos Spark ~the build that killed chaos conversion





ABOUT THIS BUILD:
Voltaxic spark was fun, everyone played it, if det dead did not get me this character would have gone further, it was the highest I had been in HC and most expensive character I had made at that point.

I learnt a lot playin this , I generally play the left side of the tree but it was nice to dabble with evasion for a change. I liked chaos conversion mechanics, I would have liked to play more voltaxic builds and a few consuming dark builds (at least for another couple months).

Also completed normal atziri several times for my first time on this character, fond memories.



We will miss you 100% chaos lightning you died too young

BUILD 2: Hardcore RF Dual Totems



Build Base: Milky's RF totem build
https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1510181


Main Differences:
Less dps, more defense , focused on Hardcroe league play
No ele equilibrium mechanic
No searing bond
Very simple , dumbed down version of milky's excelent build
DPS is still sufficient , and you can almost afk in lab traps with 500+ health regen


Build Notes:
This build earned me the #19 Chieftan in the HC perandus 2 week flashback event (i couldnt even kill it on the last day).
I am bored of this build but it is fully flushed out and did exactly what I built it to do which was stay alive. Clear speed is good thanks to just dropping totems and using whirling blades, play style is safe but not super engaging.


REQUIRED GEAR:
Daresso Passion \ Doriani catalist
Doedre Damming
Carcass Jack
High armor and health shield

GEAR & Links:
Spoiler


NOTE:
Dex on a lot of gear due to high requirement of daresso
es or es\dex gloves for 3b 1g
No real need for a 6l, a doriani catalist would be a better investment
Doriani would remove the dex requirement and allow better gear flexibility



BUFF's & AURA's:
Spoiler

Vaal Grace
Tri curse:
Enfeeble
Flammability (Elemental Weakness better in group play)
Temp Chains



PASSIVES:
(92 build)
Whatever army I have, I'll lead against them...
...until I've won or I'm dead.

BUILD 3: 2H RT Cyclone



Build Base: (2.2) [Lighty] 2H RT Cyclone
https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1302337


Main Differences:
Mana based , not using blood magic
Exploiting essence worm to run additional aura's
has both endurance charges and frenzy charges (blood magic\warlords mark)


Build Notes:
Perfectly functional, fun, high dps, I want to try this again late 2.3 as another ascendency.
Need reference of this build to later re make and refine.
Several support gems still level 19 and 0% quality, dps is scaling really well.
Played with a less OP weapon for a while , build was fully functional.

REQUIRED GEAR:
Essence worm
High pdps 2 hand weapon
Would be interesting to test with a 1 hand and shield to see how gimped the dps is.

GEAR & Links:
Spoiler


NOTE: Vaal moltern shell was being tested, not worth running



BUFF's & AURA's:
Spoiler
Blood rage
Warlords mark
Herald of ash
Hatred
4 endurance charges (5 @ lvl 93)
5 frenzy charges
~add vaal grace to this build
(currently playing with perma fortify from ascendency)
will drop faster attacks for fortify as another ascendency



PASSIVES:
(89 build)

2.3 Witch elementalist EA (WIP)


Build Base: No base build , this is an original created by me due to the elementalist reflect changes, I have not seen any other EA witch builds at this point because prior to 2.3 there is not really any point.


Main Differences:
None see above

Build Notes:
I have done extensive testing on a marauder for this build , it gets a lot more leech in 2.3 but I have decided for HC the reflect mitagation would probally be better.

This build is being crafted for hardcore prophecy as a starter build, I have been and will test this on standard when 2.3 hits then make a full guide.
Reflect mitigation is the main reason we choose elementalist as EA has very high spike damage and can easily kill yourself to reflect.


----
MANA
Mana is a concern in this build , ea is a 100+ mana (current testing setup with 6l is 125 mana)
The biggest decision with the build is if it can be done without blood magic

Blood magic (from tree)
More life
No mana points wasted on tree.
Negative: EA is massive mana , spamming costs 375 health per second negating most of your regen, you can also no longer reserve any mana (you can but i will not reserve life in hc)

Mana version
Herald of thunder curse (this build wants some leech , this provides it and endurance charges)
Mind over matter (massive for this build in hc, we already need good mana regen, this one point makes the investment worth it in my mind)
Blasphemy curse (im trying to avoid this atm, thunder will apply less but can apply at the edge of screen)
Negative: to make this viable it will have a considerable tree cost 10+ nodes for mana

The witch has mana nodes available but some gear with mana on it will need flat mana to scale"
Rings & necks
+mana prefix, 65-68 t2, 69-73 t1
+mana regen, 50-59 t2, 60-69 t1

If a ring and neck would be enough endgame dual curse with a doryani ring would be cool , it has mana and regen on it too.

Eldridge battery could be viable for this build , I will not be considering that , current testing gear in stand has litterally 0 es
----


GEAR & Links:
Note this is a starter build , thus it only requires low links and shit gear atm.
Required gear:
1) 2-3 slots with mana and mana regen (ring\neck) flat mana is priority we can get %mana increase on tree.
2) Quill rain
3) any 5link, pref armour or armour \ es
Note: this build would love a doryani fire belt, possibly a koams heart and acuity neck would be amazing
4)Damage leech on boots is the best boot enchant for this build, Explosive Arrow Radius is prob the best helm enchant

Bandits: oak , none, none , endurance charge possibly it could be nice (pending testing if we can sort mana and run warlords as a hot curse)

5-6L
EA, GMP, INC AOE, SLOWER PROJ, LESS DUR, FIRE PEN, (OPTIONAL leech, replace fire pen i guess)

3L
HoT , Curse on Hit, Warlords mark.
Note: Our ascendency ensures 20% shock, this should proc often applying warlords for leech (mostly lacking from this build otherwise) and endurance charges wich are always nice.
Gems: witch can not buy warlords

3L
Immortal call, inc dur, CwDT
Note: I generally put a golem in here but due to ascendency a low level golem is stupid , chuck arctic breath or anything else you like in there.

4L
Fire golem, stone golem or chaos golem (level both, stone will be nice in lab if you use chaos), minion life, minion dmage
two golems may aswell boost them , posibbly replace minion life with minion speed but fu*k summoning them more than once.

2l
blink arow, faster attac

2l
Frost wall , spell echo

vaal skills , most aura type vaal skills are really good for this build , grace , haste etc

Idea: Possibly level a single target burning arrow and see if its worth it , some build synergy
BA, Fire pen, Slow Proj, weapon ele, GMP
