Hello,

Im considering to make new class 4fun in standard. I have like 300-500ex currency. I dont know much about builds. Im pretty casual, i make currency farming 3-5k spider forest/vault maps last league.

REQUIRMENTS:

*maximum possible Qant/Rarity. (bisco+2xVentor ring+Quant Gem+ Flask? + Something else ?)
*ultra fast for clearing shaped shore/strands with sextants, with big AOE damage and good single target.
*nice if we can find guide for best possible build for my requirments on youtube / forum poe.



I make little research, from gameplay, mechanic i like the style, clear speed of: wander elemental pathfinder / Lifebased Windripper Raider / maby something diffrent?


I dont know wich build can be best for what i want. Please experienced players advice.


Thank u alot.

Are you familiar with the term "Return on Investment" ?

Even with an investment of 1EX in MF gear, it would take a VERY long time to recoup your 1EX in gear.

Are you familiar with the term "Opportunity Cost"?

What are you going to do with the things you might find with your uber magic find build that you couldn't buy with the 400-500ex you have.

Why are you all bullshiting him so much? He made a statment and then a question, it doesnt matter if you guys find it ilogical or whatever, hes asking for advice about a build, not for your opinion about if it would be effective...

I understand you totally, also love the feeling of maping with high rarity and quantity to get the view of phatloot on bosses even with an strict filter.

My knowledge of poe is pretty scarce so I doubt that I will be of any help to you, but I'll try my best.

The thing with MF is that the more you invest on it the more you gimp your character, being able to roll maximun possible MF and still map like you would with a normal character its quite diffcult without HUGE investment and by HUGE I mean you would only be able to buy a couple of optimun jewelry pieces with your budget.

Physical based builds are best suited for your goals, because you can get good damage and good MF on them if you have the $$$, and would let you fit a increased quantity/rarity gem in your six links. For the clear speed I would go with bows plus the added suvavility of being ranged (or a wander for what matters) there are plenty of physical wand/bows guides out there, the thing is that "no one" writtes a guide about what you want because thats not what most people are looking for, hence your best hot is to adapt one of those guides yourself.

Just do a shoping list and try to fit a glyphmark (or whatever mirror bow is top right now) and try to fit as much MF gear on it as possible (all the uniques you mentioned for starters) then start playing with it and invest more as you earn money (mirror rings, amulet, etc).

You could also try golem summoner build, they do perform incredibly well and youre supposed to be able to wear full or almost full MF gear for mapping at the cost of clearing speed (you move slower) and you're also able to kill bosses while dead.

Hope I helped you atleast a bit, good luck ;)

Windripper, Greed's Embrace, Bisco's Collar, Bisco's Leash, Ventor's Gamble x2, Aurseize, Sundance, Divination Distillate and a rare helmet.

This here is true.

What you want, basically, isnt a windripper/phys wander super awesome clearspeed build, because you dont have either ringslots nor amulet for ipd/flat elemental/wed.

I'd go for something like essence drain/caustic arrow/summons/explosive arrow or similarily builds like it that simply dont give a damn about equipment.

If you do want to build a HH build, i'd go spell-based physical damage something like EK nova or bladefall, similarily builds that dont miss too much DPS from heaving bad rings (for damage)


Just take a look at build guides on those keywords, take the one that looks the most fun to you and start building up your MF gear. If your goal is to just clear t11s at a steady pace, there is no real magic involved. Pretty much any decent one can do it.

Do note that i think with ED MF builds, you can link IQ/MR with contagion and dont lose out on dps on your main link, as long as you use contagion on your target first. Same applies on weapon switch explosive arrow, but sequence doesnt matter. Those builds get fuck all from HH though. ED has LL going for it, so there is that.

Dunno.. this looks like pretentious trolling. With 300 ex you have already everything you want several times and any extra is dunno.. not necessary.

this was my exact thought. Veiled bragging? trolling? I don't even.

Dont take this the wrong way but why spend 300-500EX on a MF build?

Isnt the point of a MF Farmer to get going with cheap investment and to build wealth?

With such a budget it would net you mor to just build a super efficient clearing char, forego the whole MF stance and build as fast and survivable as possible, get a strict loot filter and clear the shit out of content. Killing more things in less time will not only net you better loot but also levels and allows you to push further and get to loot others cant easily achieve.

MF really is something for a summoner league starter e.g. to gain uniques forbuilding a currency pool for a seccond char :)

regards

how else is he suppose to make back the 300-500ex spent on the build if not through MF???

Possibly good builds : Caustic Arrow, Nova EK, Explosive Arrows,golemancer.

Wouldn't it just be easier to learn to play the game?
