Self-Galvanic Field Autobomber

https://pobb.in/8hjYi0DX-QF5

If the pathfinder node prevents the tripping from archmage-scolds self damage you could potentially build around recovery and get extra procs from the Valako's spell. The skill granted by lightning coil actually scales pretty well. Valako's and Galvanic both proc CoA and CoC skills as well, so if you went this route you could have a wider screen clear.

Sometimes have to be careful when applying galvanic, if you have chains happening they will attach to the mobs and not you. Also may not be worth using headhunter, there's time where it makes your galvanic the size of the screen, and others where it makes you immune to shock so you cannot reapply to yourself.

If you don't want to use palm of the dreamer, you can use electromagnetism as well in Choir Bolt which will have nearly the same clear its just not as instant.

Alternate build could also be applying 5 fields to yourself as Elementalist, which would be higher dps but a more active playstyle.

Let me know what you think, and if anyone has a way to make this kind of setup better or faster. Thanks! @u/Undead_Legion if you're still around take a peak?

really cool

Nice work! Always cool to see something creative and new, galvanic field is very under-explored.

can you use overcharge for self inflicting the shock?

Something I always mention is the best second skill in the game:

Thunderstorm with Shock Conduction 2, Lightning Exposure, Static Shocks, Coursing Current and Electromagnatism.

Not sure if there's anything you can roll into your autocast setup from there, but permanent shock and exposure might be useful for bosses.

Awesome foundation here that I did not know was possible. I started to mess around with this, and I think I have a way you can get rid of the body armour. Haven't figured out how to remove the helmet, but the helmet is at least providing some benefits (mana, spell damage, respectable ES for a unique).

The notable "Catalysis" does something very similar to the body armour. The type of damage you take is random, so you may have to spam a few extra times to make it actually shock you. I grabbed a cheap megalomaniac to test this out, but could also anoint it.

This comes with some other downsides like randomly freezing yourself, but might be worth exploring to at least free up the body armour. Really too bad that it is elemental damage with attacks and not just elemental damage or it would also be beneficial. Could potentially use a dream fragments to avoid the freeze/chill since you are kind of mana stacking.

Afterthought: Maybe its possible to use volatility to shock yourself with this same tech? A little messy though.

I think you can use galvanatic field as a way to also trigger CoC maybe? Since it counts as a “Skill you use yourself”. I know this cuz it proqs blazing critical from my testing. Was also doing this build but with Archmage. I did not continue because of a bug that evrytime I use GF I get perma stunned

Hummm maybe this can work with chalupa monk you can get like +300% (or even more) extra damage as chaos damage for "free" with asc + some volatility nodes xdd Maybe this can increase a lot the dps for bossing

Sick build, since you said this can use CoC+CoA wonder if we can go with the infinite loop route.

I decided to try stacking energy shield - at minimum level.

I got bored at this stage in the league and decided to spend many of my hard earned divines on a small project. Wouldn't it be funny to stack Energy shield for a min-level char? [https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/1a027](https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/1a027) Tabula rasa has relevant jewel mods noted on it in POB so the math actually works out since it doesn't seem to work properly in POB. second screenshot is with a lvl 29 discipline aura with 36% increased aura magnitude - I didn't wanna spend another several thousand divines on a support character, I just wanted to see how well it would work theoretically >3000 ES without aurabot is possible, however, its basically impossible in practice. As of now, there are \*18\* 2 socket uncorrupted crown of thorns left on trade - on average it takes \~11 to hit a 30% and then another 1 in 3 to get a 3 socket one. Hitting a double corrupt on said 3 socket would be better then my current one, but that's not plausible sadly. Same for the boots. Hitting a better double corrupt on the gloves and focus would likely be plausible, but I couldn't buy more bases from Finn. Grip of Kulemak 59% ES \*should\* be possible, but it already took me over 40 attempts to hit 57% so I think I'll just leave it as is. Belt I didn't find any other way besides the 25% corrupt to get ES without a level requirement - if anyone has any idea tell me. Amulet could sanctify for 19/19 but again, would require silly amounts of currency (each try is \~30 div as is with annoint + sanctify + quality). I \*think\* patient barrier should be best annoint, but correct me if I'm wrong. Total investment into this character so far is about 3000 divines, probably a bit more. further thoughts \- maximum technically possible is 3112 ES at level 2 unless I'm missing something important. POB [https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/1a02a](https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/1a02a) \- doubting this but: is it possible to get an ascendency at this low level by skipping straight to geonor with a helper? In which case it might be possible that xp penalties kicking it would allow me to ascend at lvl 2? This would allow +20% +20% (ascendency) +60% (jewel) ES, which would get me to 3218 ES (actual build) / 3732 ES (max technically possible) Did I miss anything?

Rakiata who?

Rakiata who?

I made an elemental crossbow varashta sorc this season as my starting build (goal was to exploit yoke of suffering's full potential, you can find poe ninja below, don't be fooled by the dmg tooltip, it kill ubers before they can move) and so since I was in the intel side of the tree I used my weapon swap to maximize exposure (with whispering ice) and curse magnitude. Here with some non-optimized gear I'm reaching a total of -338% res (that's -169% on bosses), meaning it's better than rakiata's. I use cursed ground support to apply the curse and icestorm (which comes with the staff) with prolonged duration and potent exposure to make the exposure last longer. This tech doesn't require much investment apart from your weapon swap and a few sockets at most so it can be plugged into many elemental builds. As it is now, it requires you to cast the spells with your weapon swap, so I use it mostly for bosses, but i might cast icestorm on bulky rares in juiced maps once in a while. If you have a skill dedicated for mapping, it'll propably better to use rakiata on it, and remove it or use another skill for bosses. Here's the poeninja: [https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/McZaatar-0907/character/Dendjala](https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/McZaatar-0907/character/Dendjala) I might make a build showcase if people are interested, it's a fun league starter build. With yoke and the electrocution node on the tree, enemies have 120% damage taken, more if they're cursed, on top of the giant res drop, plus you benefit from a lot of the "damage against enemies with ailments nodes" so that's why the tooltip is low (explosive grenades indicate 60k in game but they hit bosses for like 2M) at first I was playing with permafrost bolt with frost nexus + navira's fracture + fragmentation rounds, it was a fun combo and really strong for leveling but I couldn't scale navira's fracture damage in late game (I had command + minion nodes on my second weapon instead of the curse/exposure at the time) Hope this inspires some of you!
