[2.3 WIP] Grand Devotion
|
Goals: To create an open ended skill tree to build currency at the start of the league.
To do this I am planning to utilize the Templar Heirophant ascendancy node Illuminated Devotion to create pseudo 5L skill combinations. I am also planning on utilizing the new unique Grand Spectrum Jewels. http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Grand_Spectrum The cost efficiency (READ: Viability) of using this build to start with will largely depend on the cost/rarity of these jewels. I am planning to use full viridian Grand Spectrum jewels. For defense we will utilize a primarily life build with additional reduction through MoM. We will have a small amount of ES due to the Sanctuary of Thought ascendancy node, along with any ES through gear. We will also be using Enfeeble+Temporal Chains in a blasphemy aura. Pros and Cons
Spoiler
Pros: 204% increased maximum Life Not Unique-Dependent for Gear Generic build for your choice of skill. Cons: Have not addressed Life Leech/Reflect. Not specialized. Caster Variant Tree and Details

In the caster variant tree, we allocate 6 jewel slots. This will give us 216% increased elemental damage from jewels alone. List of possible skills:

Ice Nova Firestorm Flameblast Lightning Tendrils Storm Call Detonate Dead (With Desecrate) NOTE: Magma Orb, Fireball, and Ball Lightning are possible, but I have not decided if LMP/GMP would be worth it in a pseudo 5L. Example Skill Links

In the melee variant tree, we allocate 7 jewel slots. This will give us 294% increased elemental damage from jewels alone. We remove spell related nodes, change the pathing to the witch area, and unallocate Elemental Overload so that we can get Resolute Technique to deal with accuracy issues. List of possible skills
Spoiler
NOTE: If using a physical weapon you will need to convert it to elemental to fully benefit from this tree. Ice Crash Molten Strike Cleave Earthquake Static Strike Sweep Sunder Cyclone Reave Interesting gear choices
Spoiler
1. Kaom's Heart. 2. Devoto's Devotion, can allow the use of dexterity/bow skills. 3. Bringer of Rain, with Physical to Elemental conversion (possibly need Avatar of Fire). 4. Oro's Sacrifice 5. Doryani's Fist (with Ice Crash) IGN: EmptyPalms Last edited by EmptyPalms#0028 on May 30, 2016, 7:27:14 PM Last bumped on May 30, 2016, 7:32:33 PM

Not unique-dependent, eh? Except for all those unique gems that you've built around.
It's unique-dependent. |

" Sorry for not being clear. I meant that you would not be required to use unique items out side of the skill tree. Such as requiring a Voltaxic, Shavs, Voll's Devotion, etc to make the tree work. If the jewels are too rare at the start of the league, I may need to tweak the tree a little to compensate. IGN: EmptyPalms
