Hello all,
As title, I'm getting bored with CoC BM, planning to make another char, I will focus mostly on temple so need a build have high MS possible with good clear (& ofc not dying randomly by normal mob). Have eyes on Poison PF & Reverse chill Iceshot Sw (budget of 3-4k div)
Any recommendations? No melee or shapeshift plz
Flicker strike is ranged but you are the projectile trust
Ice Shot PF, Poison PF, Temporalis shenanigans on Oracle, self-chill variations (Ice Shot or Whirling Assault imo), Spark PF
Poison PF is super for it. The thing you need is speed and consistency while moving through a map. Having stuff die for multiple screens with proliferating poisons and being immune to chills, temp chains, hinders, slows etc is peak in this game.
I had a pretty geared CoC Disciple of Varashta which I did all content in the game with, but chilled ground + temp chains maps made me tear my hair out.
PF is the best for grinding out large quantities of maps quickly imo.
I just use reserve chill gears on my BM. No need another build
Lol you're spreading playing the best build. If you don't want to play melle good luck. It'll just be more of the same
If you’re running a CI build or a no-ES build (armor or EB/MoM), this perfect essence modifier may do more for your build than the hybrid modifier on your chest. 15% physical taken as chaos is an enormous reduction to physical damage when you have good chaos mitigation. For me, I am a Chayula with 90% chaos resist thanks to ATD.
[Based off this concept of using invulnerable Unearth minions.](https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile2builds/comments/1nquubx/chaos_walking_simulator/) Since Blackflame turns Incinerate's Ignite into a Chaos DoT and Contagion-afflicted minions can proliferate all Chaos DoTs (not just ED), in theory the Compounding ignite stacking people are doing with Oil Grenade should work here too. This could be one of the fastest builds in the game, especially with how many instances of damage we should be getting. The new minion support from passives and gems make them faster, and they are already invulnerable with Brutus' Brain (which does not block their Contagion-touch from dealing damage). The issue will be solving single target (since we won't have Contagion'd minions during solo fights or fights with long downtime), which may be as simple as just running a Crossbow on Set 2. Class and gear options are pretty open. Lich, Oracle, PF and Varashta may be good immediate picks. If someone tests this before I get the chance, I'd like to know how it goes.
That about sums it up. So far I have made: oracle (ice wolf, plant, reap, choir, coc comet), shaman (bear), varashta (djinn/minion, plant, whirling assault), stormweaver (infusion), blood mage (coc comet, blood spear), pathfinder (poison, ice lance), titan (whirling assault, ember fusillade), smith of kitava (whirling assault), mercenary (crossbow) Fully admitting I have a problem. With that embraced, any ideas on what to go for next?
