[3.1] Bashtart's ELE POISON GLADIATOR<>Volkuur's Molten Strike<>Red Elder/Shaper! Budget friendly!

Without watchers eye i cant get full conversion. elemental overload is useful with only 60% ?
Probably old version of tree (without overload) not will be better?

I want the helm enchant so bad but its just too rich for my blood right now. theres a lightpoacher up for sale with +3 molten strike projectiles for 5ex. Maybe if I liquidated all my stuff from other characters I could afford it but then I'd have nothing left. plus switching from stark. to lightpoacher is quite a HP drop for me

the enchant on a starkonjas is ideal but then you're looking at 9ex+. The reality is though I feel that enchant is just a luxury item. its a huge boost but even without it you can do everything

The watcher's eye is not that important... elemental overload makes alone about 1/6 of my dps ... so yeah I think you should get it.

Yeah the prices for the enchantment are crazy... maybe just go with additional 40% molten strike damage instead.

hey there,

I'm currently playing your build and I love it so far. Awesome DMG, very tanky and nice art of playing ^^

I'm just curious, because I first used your leveling guide (going towards block (ranger cluster) and shadow for a bit crit), but then I saw your new tree and adapted towards it. My HP and my DMG seems to go down, but I'm still able to kill the mobs the same way I used before.

So here's my question:

Is your build build around Dendrobate or should I be able to use a rare chest and Chernobog's Pillar? I mean I'm currently using more fire dmg, then poison/bleed :-/

Here's my current gear:





As you can see, I'm not using your curse setup, but the Enfeeble from Cherno. Shall I adapt my skilltree now more towards fire, or can I still use your skilltree?

current skilltree:

I would be happy if you could take a look and help me a bit. ty ^^

best regards

Look the great thing about volkuur‘s is the synergy between elemental damage and poison because when you scale your fire damage you automatically will increase your poison damage. Not sure what you mean with your damsge is going down... do you mean your tool tip?

The build is very flexible... you can go more tanky or more dps... I feel the best way to max your dps is with Dendrobate and poison scaling. With your current setup you will be more tanky ... so I guess you must decide which way you want to go. You definitely should get a coralito‘s signature flask because this will increase your dmg a lot.

I would recommend that you go with the new skilltree ... imo it is better optimized.

I love the build so far. I got lucky on my uber lab enchantment and ended up with a starkonja with "volatile dead destroys up to 1 additional corpses", then i sold it for 16 exa and bought another starkonja with "+3 additional molten strike projectile" enchantment.

My gear




Very nice build. I was looking at the https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2068178 but wanted to do a melee version with molten strike.

1. I noticed that your abyss jewels don't have double added fire roll. I think you could increase your damage if they did.

2. Do you think adding more projectiles through GMP would increase damage by having more balls from molten strike apply more poisons?

3. What about gems like conc effect?

4. The other build emphasizes WED gem as a great boost to DPS, what do you think about it?

Oh yeah I seen that build... he came up more or less with same build concept one day after I released mine. I musst say his build is really cool... glasscanon style but to see how he just melt shaper in a few seconds is pretty impressive. I even toke the idea to spec into elemental overload from him.

1. Yes you are right... I am just very lazy and so I just did not do it :)

2. I tested GMP but I am not sure if it is worth it. I feel fore vile toxins just gives more dps.

3. Atm I used increased area of effect as 6linked for mapping and conc. effect / unbound ailments for hard bosses

4. For hard boss I change in WED for Ancestral Call
