Hollow Palm is fun

Had a thought the other day about how no one is really playing hollow palm right now, so I wanted to try to make it work in the current state of the game based off of the knowledge I've gained over the last few leagues. I was originally using Shattering Palm to jump into a pack, then hit with ice strike for some nice explosions and damage. But then I noticed that as I got a bit more optimized with my tree/gear my Shattering Palm was nuking. So I just started using that and that alone for 99% of my mapping, as you see here. I do struggle slightly with bosses in damage sometimes. But with the hand of chayula setup that I swap to, mana siphon with freezing mark helps a bunch. This build is so much fun for mapping overall. You're almost insta-freezing with Shattering Palm, which also procs your ice bombs from the skill itself, elemental expression, your cast on crit with arc, and also your double heralds since Arc shocks pretty heavily. Taking advantage of mana remnants as well since I am critting so often and killing enemies afflicted by ailments, which keeps the build topped off. This is more of a showcase and all of my gear is self found/self crafted, but if anyone is interested in trying to gear out a HP monk, here is my poeninja: [Profile - WyattGirth - Path of Exile 2 - poe.ninja](https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/Acusar-9857/character/WyattGirth)

Homebrew Scarred faith/Barkskin/RedbladeBanner is doing well so far

I tried doing a guidless build. Simple plan was to be tanky enough so i can stand still and channel volcano. [https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/19b59](https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/19b59)

Shield Wall Infernalist – Nebuloch - 2500% Crit Damage

Hello everyone, I’ve been experimenting with a Shield Wall Infernalist setup and ended up finding a pretty fun interaction using Nebuloch that allows the build to reach around 2500% critical damage. The core idea is Nebuloch allows our attacks to consume an Endurance Charge to guarantee a critical strike. To generate Endurance Charges consistently, the build uses Redflare Conduit with the corrupted mod: “Gain a Power Charge every second if you haven't lost Power Charges recently.” Resonance converts Power Charge gain into Endurance Charge gain instead. Interestingly, this conversion does not count as losing Power Charges, so the condition is never broken. In practice, this means the build generates Endurance Charges automatically every second. Once the crit is guaranteed, the next step is stacking as much critical damage as possible from the passive tree. One interesting class choice here is Infernalist. The Grinning Immolation node gives 50% more Critical Damage Bonus. Since this is a “more” modifier, it multiplies the total critical damage rather than just adding to it, which scales extremely well. Another big damage boost comes from Garukhan’s Resolve. It allows our hits to critical strike twice. The downside is that it reduces your maximum critical strike chance to 50%. However, since Nebuloch guarantees our attacks will crit anyway, that downside effectively doesn’t matter. So the build ends up stacking massive crit damage while bypassing the usual crit chance limitations. I tested it mainly as a boss killer and the damage felt surprisingly strong for a relatively budget setup.

Smith of Kitava Endurance Charge Tech

Just tested a tech to generate excessive power charges passively in my Chayula and could see this working really well with Smith Nebuloch or really anyone who wants power or endurance charges. But this could be super good for Smith. Fire Spell on hit with Boundless Energy 2 + Firestorm + Overabundance 1 + Compressed Duration + Elemental Discharge. Then run Siphon Elements with Harmonic Elements 2. You will gain lots of infusions, and a charge per infusion spent. Firestorm can consume one of each infusion, and infusion of power grants a power charge on consuming a charge. With my Chayula I was hitting max charges non stop using reapers invocation with numpad trick to test. Could work really well with CoC on a weapon guarenteed to crit as well. CoEA and CoC also viable.
