[2.3] Pathfinder CoC Poison Build (1min Gorge run! ShatterChuck-like DMG! Easy Uber/Core!)

Hey Exiles,

This is Rayamn. I've made New Era of CoC Discharge recently. Today, Im gonna bring another CoC build with Pathfinder Ascendancy class. It's the one which is closest to ShatterChuck so far. Note that this is not a budget build.

Now that the intro is over, let's get into the fun stuff shall we?

Core nodes in Pathfinder Ascendancy class that we will take:





Minimum item requirements:












Feel free to ask here, I will be happy to answer when I'm free.

Added a Core Run video demo with void battery, some randome amulet, and a decent shield.

You can say thanks there... it also has a budget section, better defense with Grace and fire about twice as many projectiles.

Just checked your post. The only similar thing we have is that we both use bladefall and Glacial cascade, and I feel many people are using these 2 spells combo alrdy. Not just you or me.

Im trying to maximize poison dmg with 3 area spells, I take aoe dmg on tree, linked with iaoe or conc effect which are double dipping. But you cant cause you use EK.

Im achieving to refill all my flasks with 3 multi hit times spells in practical from "10% gain charge when U deal crit", and I proved I can in my video. So that I can rely on flasks almost anytime. But I doubt you can do that with EK in ur 6L. (actually I tried before, and No your setup cant)

For defense part, ah... I can always use Grace instead of anger if I want to. I didnt do that cause I feel flasks give me many defense alrdy. Its pointless to compare defense part cause I can use wat u use.

About the barrage mechanism, pls do some research about it or check my Barrage CoC APS Criterion for some quick result. With 6 projectiles barrage, the breakpoint (cause the cooldown time is 0.05s) is 2.0 aps. Your single target Proc rate will be decreased if you get more than 2.0 aps. (If you cant find any related info on google, I will tell you in more detail how to calculate the breakpoint.)

Besides, when you reach the breakpoint, your single target proc rate will be max. That means
3.0 aps with 4 proj barrage and 2.0 aps with 6 proj barrage are having exactly same single target proc rate. But obviously, In clearing speed, 3.0 aps will be faster than 2.0 aps.

In my case, my stats is exactly 3.0 aps with 4 proj barrage which is better than 2.0 aps with 6 proj barrage in clearing speed part, but we have same single target proc rate. Needless to say, my stats beats urs not only in single target but also in clearing speed. So, you better correct this in your guide to stop misleading people.

Last, about the spells we're using. I suggest you to try bladefall / GC / BV / IAOE first, and you will see how faster speed it does than bladefall/ GC / EK. More precisely, EK only take care of your front direction which bladefall and GC alrdy do. But BV can take care of all monsters around you in different directions. well, its hard to describe, you better try it by urself.

Thanks for your replies. Your answer on reddit about scamming people pretty much said everything about you.

Apart from that, my version has Grace for additional defense, the same ES like you and runs a 12-14 projectile barrage. But whatever. Not gonna discuss this with a person like you.

Best of luck in your life.

Alrdy explained in "random blabla" that I could also use grace, and ur 12~14 proj barrage with 2.4 aps is totally wrong investiment which will low down ur proc rate.

hmm on reddit? didnt you say that you want me to get banned bcz of doing scamming? But I said sadly for you, Im still here which means I didnt do shieeet. Thats the logic there. Pls be smarter. (This Topic stop here. If you wanna discuss about the build, sure no problem. But if You wanna trash talk, We can meet at my trading thread. But pls dont bark in my guide.)

Im feel rly sorry for You to choose to be ignorance, or maybe you just pretend not to understand after you found out you are wrong. Anyway, I'll kindly give you some hint. https://goo.gl/9poSZl
Check it pls. As a build guider, you cant mislead ppl with wrong info. you're welcome.

((1/A)*0.6) / P = Time between projectiles is the formula.

So, assuming we want to run 12 projectiles (Barrage with 2 volley fires) and use the exact cooldown time of 0.05 seconds of barrage, we'd have... oh wow exactly 2 APS so you'd hit every 0.025 seconds, that's twice the cooldown.
With 14 projectiles and 2.5 APS (which is my setup) you'd have it three time within the cooldown.
This totally neglect the fact that movement towards the enemy can influence this, but anyways.

So our main difference is that I prefer more hits over less hits, simply cause you won't always hit (hint: Accuracy on gear) and because you won't always crit (crit gets double checked with accuracy) and because you won't always trigger the spell (70% chance).

Oh btw the crits from barrage refill flasks...

Thanks for reading, now go back to flipping and scamming people with your secondary accounts.

Thats the correct formula.

But its pointless to talk about cooldown time in clearing speed case, bcz we always use one barrage to kill a pack. So for clearing speed, the faster ur aps is, the faster ur clearing speed is. I hope you can understand that.

We only talk about cooldown time when we are single targeting a boss which requires us to shoot more than one barrage. That was why I keep saying with 4 proj barrage vs 6 proj barrage. In single targetting, volley fire projs wont hit boss cause they're shoot at diff directions. So the way you calculate was totally wrong.

In my case, I dont use +2 proj enchantment, so my barrage is 4 proj in singletarget.
In your case, you use +2 proj enchantment, so your barrage is 4+2=6 proj in singletarget.
According to the formula, the breakpoint of 4 proj barrage is 3.0 aps.
According to the formula, the breakpoint of 6 proj barrage is 2.0 aps.
Got it?

So even if you had 2.0 aps today, we could have the same single target proc rate. But in clearing speed part, obviously 3.0 aps > 2.0 aps, cause we always use one barrage to kill a pack.

Volley fire wont help in ur singletarget proc rate. It only helps in clearing speed and it does helps a lot. OFC I also use two of them on my tree (4+8=12 proj if you really care about it) but no need to mention about those volley fire projs when you calculating ur single target proc rate.

And again, trash talk or say some disrespect words at the end won't make you become the right side.

just another thread where they come with big prejudice that 'rayamn doesnt know anything about game', but got rekt in the end.

move on. typical another day in poe.

Updated a shield charge playstyle video and related gears/trees.
