isn't lightning tendrils better than ball lightnign?

Yeah it is. If you're leveling then maybe you should use that for single target instead, I will update the guide.

But if you're using Poet's Pen, you cannot trigger lightning tendrils in the wand.

How important are those faster attacks in your gloves?
Or should i focus more on life/mana and resistances if i can't find a decently priced pair with everything?

Not that important. You will need to shuffle some of the gem links a bit so that you at least have frenzy-fa (perhaps mix it into the barrage setup and drop accuracy support). Resistance and life/Mana should take priority.

Thanks.
More questions.
Will assasin's mark get triggered by herald of thunder then? (will i leave gloves with just 3 gems then)
and is there reason for barrage and frenzy to be at level 1 and 5

Edit: Got to equip the gem set myself now to try and herald triggers it fine indeed, got a 6 link body as well to include culling and using the spare glove slot for ice golem (couldn't think of anything better)

This is the most fun build I've ever played (okay, I really do love lightning spells in POE).

Made it up to Guardians so far, but keep dying more often than I'd like to...

Could you have a look at my POB
https://pastebin.com/xqbti2EN
and let me know what I could improve? I have like 10 Ex to play around with.

Also does the Accuracy Support do anything if not linked? (sorry if you've said that already).

Would really love to face Shaper but not sure if I should dare yet...

Thanks so much!

do you turn off herald of thunder when you are face tanking bosses? also i got this build to lvl 72, every thing but boots and a ring, but it feels so squishy when i try to face tank bosses. this build seems 100% squisher then any other build i've tried, especially on just about ANY boss. not sure how this works....

I Second your question, I'm the same - don't get me wrong this build is so fun to pay, but i have encountered a few problems myself, I'm not to sure if this build is an max 100 to fully get the experience of it ...

what i noticed is... before i was Poet's Pen MoM - Glacial Cascade/Frost bolt - T15 Elder/Shaper/Guardians/ Fast Mapper build from there now that is so awesome, face rolling everything that i did even bosses were fun..

this build i can't kill most bosses on T5 T6 T7 maps (as I'm still competing them) and most of them are res to my lightning - and another thing randomly i'm not to sure if its the server .

i noticed when im hardcore spamming, it seems to teleport when i get hit randomly sometimes?
is that apart of the build, i really haven't taken a good look at it yet..

thanks

Nope, it can be any level

PoB looks really good, the major upgrades now are:

- jewels with 4 relevant properties (usually cost >2ex each)
- boots enchanted with "damage penetrates xx resist" or "adds xx lightning damage" (this will provide 5-10% more dps vs a lone map boss). May need to juggle your resistances to achieve this, in the end it's not always worth it
- gloves enchanted with commandment of reflection (helps a lot vs melee bosses such as minotaur, chimera, phoenix)
- helmet with %reduced ball lightning enchant (I don't know anyone who owns this, lol)

Accuracy support gem does nothing if not linked to a skill

You can definitely handle shaper, good luck

I keep herald of thunder active.

Hey, there are a few things I think you could improve still.

I'm looking at your build and I only see your MF gear, so I must ask: are you using Berek's Grip? The leech will help a lot vs bosses.

You should craft your divine life flasks so that they have either Staunching or Bubbling prefix. Also, getting a Surgeon's Stibnite flask will be incredibly helpful, due to the large amount of crits generated by this build you will always have Stibnite active in a bossfight.

Your damage is very low because your Shock Nova is level 13 , Arc level 17, and your Ball Lightning is level 17. Level those up and you will clear red maps just fine.. Also , your damage will jump very high once you start grabbing more jewel sockets on the skilltree.

As for random teleporting when you get hit: You have Cast when damage taken - Flame dash. Break up the links so you have cwdt - immortal call and then flame dash - faster casting separately. Also, cwdt should be kept at level 1 and immortal call kept at level 3.

Fast Reply, thanks for that... yes i brought both gears listed you had MF and standard....
thanks for your advice.. yea map clearing is fine it was just mainly the bosses always RES to lightning for some reason, but i'll take what you said onboard and play around tonight but yes. i do have Berek's Grip...

thanks again, looking forward to it.. the build is fun!

one of the best builds i've played so far during my 3 years PoE experience. I would like to share my gratitude for sharing this fun build for us.

I can facetank shaper easily in a 3 player party which was quite surprising for a build that has such a massive clear speed.
