~[1.0.6] Top 5 Unconventional Builds (Standard and Domination)~
|
So, being an ardent fan of this amazing game, I've been looking through the forums for really fun/unorthodox builds, those that give an amazing mix of DPS and damage mitigation. Below are the top 5 unconventional builds in POE at the moment, in no order, in my opinion.
1) Kechari's Master Blaster Scion - Easily solos end-game content. - Allows player to kite difficult content. - Usage of 4 auras means that party members would be able to benefit greatly. Link to build: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/748618 2) DonaldF's Detonate Dead Scion - Very cheap to build around. - Pretty crazy DPS. - Runs Arctic Armor. Link to build: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/786517 3) Space's Incinerate Witch - Extremely tanky. - Decent DPS. - Excellent PvP build. Link to build: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/766094 4) Redzor's AFK-Discharge Witch - Able to obliterate endgame bosses. - Insane DPS when facing large packs of mobs. Slightly slower against single targets. - Works best solo or in small mapping groups. Link to this build: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/575998 5) Castablanca's Knockback Reaver Duelist - Extremely safe build, since you attack mobs while knocking them back at the same time, keeping them constantly out of reach. - DPS is pretty high. Link to build: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/782347 To my fellow readers, please discuss about the top 5 unconventional builds I've posted above. Feel free to point out other builds that deserves the spot more than any of the 5 above, and if many people agree enough, off it goes! These builds need to have videos showcasing its ability to handle endgame content! By endgame I mean 73-78! :) IGN: Asharin ~[1.0.5] 9K ES CI+VP+AA CoC EK-Discharger~ www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/730607 ~Top 5 Builds in Standard/Domination~ www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/599443 Last edited by Wishinan#1706 on Feb 11, 2014, 10:08:01 PM

Bumping a worthwhile thread. Surely someone has a newly viable Searing Bond build or somesuch to contribute?

Stay tuned, I'll be posting some original hybrid builds after Patch 1.1.0 is released. They're currently soloing maps up to level-71, but I want to update them with the revised Passive Tree when it goes live. Here are some hints on what's in store:

Loved the first two and the last one ^^

I've only looked at 2. and 3.
I really love DonaldF's builds. Always good offense and defense yet if you look at his build in link 2. his gear is seriously cheap. No.3.'s build is pretty bad DPS considering that clear speed with something like 500 ex worth of gear (seriously, mirrored weapon and shield, and legacy shavronne's, really high roll gloves and helm), only really good for shock stacking. I wouldn't even say it's good for freezing since he has no single target cold dps and the 3x cold snaps exploding together will kill off any white mobs if you want to use proliferation. I think a regular caster build has better clear speed/utility with that gear.

" That was the first build that came to my mind when making this thread but I couldn't find a build that had videos showcasing its capability in handling endgame content. IGN: Asharin

" Thanks! I did look through the thread but it does not have videos showcasing the build handling endgame content :/ IGN: Asharin

" Indeed, DonaldF is a very creative build creator. Best part of his builds is that the gear requirements are pretty low, and they scale extremely well with endgame gear. I also agree that No.3 is not the strongest build in this top 5. Link me to a better unconventional build :) IGN: Asharin ~[1.0.5] 9K ES CI+VP+AA CoC EK-Discharger~ www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/730607 ~Top 5 Builds in Standard/Domination~ www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/599443 Last edited by Wishinan#1706 on Feb 11, 2014, 4:26:04 AM

" I don't have any other build links in mind since I honestly don't look at many to begin with, I just wanted to point out that 3. only looks decent because of the ridiculously high end gear, and honestly the build isn't really unconventional since most Sunblast trappers use pretty much the same or similar setup, only difference is he has the cash for legacy shavronne's and low life bonuses.
