So basically its gonna be trickster league is it not?

Nah, won't be a trickster league.
1) You are forced to go ES. 2) The damage is the lowest of all ascendancies. 3) Mostly good for SSF who want to be lazy and take it slow. Uploaded an awesome Exsanguinate Freeze Explosion build on the forums - https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3508506

This build seems interesting :-)
Did you try turning it off and on again?

In the current state when instant kills are becoming more frequent. Builds have to work around damage mitigation, a huge pool of life with high regeneration, or to kill every before it comes any close or use minions as meat shields.
But the trickster is suppose to enter into close combat with low life and rely on the gods of randomness to dodge every killing blow. Last edited by B00b#4465 on Aug 12, 2022, 4:45:08 PM

" This will be bigger than most people think, suppression capped and pretty huge regen will make this tanky af. I wonder if it has synergy with Wicked Ward keystone. Unfortunately, apart from the polymath I don't see any real "wow" dps nodes. Also this ascendancy is no longer DoT based, builds will be hit based oriented. Hope the buildmakers get something op out of this as it's definitely fresh. Second-class poe gamer

" Yeah with Inveterate and mastery, and amulet suffix, that is 68% of spell damage suppressed. Or 36% less spell damage taken than just regular spell suppression character negating 50%. That is pretty nice... Last edited by trixxar#2360 on Aug 12, 2022, 7:08:10 PM

Tanky against spell damage for sure.
The Action speed node sets your base speed at 1.08x its whatever base value. So you can't be reduced to below that value, BUT you can be reduced TO that value. So not full immunity if one reads carefully. Still, strong. I PoB'd some builds and I felt forced to CI. But if I'm gonna CI, I'll just play Occultist instead and kill everything WAAAAAY faster. If I wanna do any damage at all AND be really safe I feel like I'm forced to put 6 points to the Escape artist wheel and then pick the damage node. How many different masteries is one realistically gonna run? 5? 7? We need a guard skill that scales by Evasion. Copy paste of Molten shell would be ideal, really. But with Molten shell around I'd rather get some Evasion to get a reasonable evade chance with Jade and focus rest on Armour running Determ and face tank mechanics in MS. In short: why should I play Trickster? :( Last edited by AlvinL_#4492 on Aug 13, 2022, 12:52:09 PM

" Would not this trickster be really amazing for death oath build going for the MORE damage and chaos nodes? I always wanted to just be walking simulator like in good old RF times, i wish for comeback of those builds. |

To me, it seems like the Trickster excels at defense, with minimum offensive scaling, which excludes every single skill in the game that actually requires investment.
Bring me some coffee and I'll bring you a smile.

" With offense being the best defense that sounds like you are telling me that trickster sucks and should never be played. |

No, as usual it will be a Tornado shot league with chances of wardloop >.> ...Even though divining olroth now will be a pain.
