(3.16) NERFED DO NOT PLAY THIS Raider Archmage BF/BB [CHEAP, Tanky, HCSSF viable, (100m+ dps)

I started TR Raider as a leaguestarter.... played to yellow maps, killed my first sirus.... then i decided to do a meta char.... but rerolled 3 times, didnt find anything enjoyable to play....

then i decided to respec my raider to the bfbb archmage since i had alot of fun playing this build in3.14

i could push to yellow maps but it didnt feel as good as 3.14....

i took a look at poe.ninja builds and found exactly one BFBB Raider

https://poe.ninja/challenge/builds?class=Raider&allskill=Blade-Blast

he has some adjustments to get more aoe and adapt the build to the 3.15 nerfs.... i swapped the gems and what should i say.... actually im running t14-16 without problems... only the single target damage is a bit low but i guess i have to level the gems first and need some new jewels...


but the bf/bb raider is still more enjoyable then totems or sst.....
fck meta. lets push this build again ;)



How about BVBB? A single 0.12 second cast gets up 5 blades 53% of the time, and a full 10 blades 47% of the time. Use a Divergent quality BV for the chance to create an additional blade, and then pump it with an Enhance Lv4 to get 47% quality. Unleash and Spell Echo gets you to 5 blades, and the 47% chance applies to the entire cast to get you to 10.



The AoE for Blade Blast is actually HUGE with 10 BV stacks. I thought it was just 80% more AoE for each blast explosion, but it's actually each consecutive blast gaining 80% more AoE. No joke.

Here's how big it is:

I thought I would need a Pledge for Greater Spell Echo, but regular Spell Echo is sufficient. I like having dual Sceptres for Cast speed, Mana, Spell damage, etc.
Played this build in 3.14 and was super fun.. So much fun that I have been tweaking with the POB for 3.16 league.

Are you planning to update this at all? Based on what I have been tweaking with in POB it still seems very viable.

Thank you!
Any thoughts on 3.16 with this?

Agnostic moved to the opposite side of the tree. Sad but true. Let`s hope it will be possible with scion.
