[3.21] 🌿Ultimate Claw Poison Pathfinder - Untouchable Viper - Molten Strike update by FEL

Quick question: Why is everyone using herald of agony buff effect on the ring? I have increased chaos damage mod. Is buff effect better?

You have a lot of sources of increased damage already, the increased chaos damage only gets added to that, which doesn't amount to that much.
But Herald of Agony grants you 10% MORE poison damage, the Ring effect increases this buff by up to 100% => 20% more poison damage.

"More" means it's a multiplier, contrary to the additive "increased" effect.
So yeah. 10% More is better than 60% increased.

Edit:
For comparison: Swapping my HoAg buff effect ring for one with 60% increased chaos damage costs me ~400k DPS, so it's actually quite a noticable difference.

Just to give you heads up, not to blow all your currency on this build although it's awesome.

I'm making brand new build. It's has some very interesting and new mechanics, it's super fun to play but it will be on the expensive side (not mirrors though). Something like good PF budget. My plan is to take it to lvl 100 for the first time ever.

It will be finished in few days with guide and videos. Don't want to spoil. :P

Sounds good, let us know when it's up ! :D

I added a Video (for a friend really) for my A5 Sirius kill:

I'll see if I can also upload my Simulacrum clear (1 death). I have another one ready to go and DPS is much higher now, so hopefully we can get a deathless one uploaded too :).

You gave me the idea, so I payed 4ex for Simulacrum in Standard to try it out with PF. Killed Kosis in 5s on wave 20.
Ill upload the video :D

Simulacrum last 5 waves full video

d, it shows as blue in POB, but doesn't affect the calculated dps.

Just hit this beautiful claw today in 40 4-socket resonator tries :)

Your luck this league man... xD[/quote]
Can you call it luck when mactomm1 probably crafted hundreds of claws this league?
Eventually you will hit something good or even excellent.

Sorry if it has been asked but there are a LOT of comments and I didn't find anything searching; could you explain why the PoB multistrike correction is 22% more damage?

I have read some math saying:

(1+1.22+1.44)*(.9)/(3/1.44) [<-Attack Speed] Which would result in a quotient of 1.583 (thus their argument for 58% MORE damage).

Then I thought perhaps PoB takes into account the More attack speed from the MS support:

(1+1.22+1.44)*(0.9)/3 = 1.098 so this damage is only 10% MORE.


I have been contemplating going for awakened MS support but it is a hefty investment so I wanted to be sure about the damage scaling of MS with hits before I pulled the trigger.

Love this build btw; seeing from fossil rolls has been the highlight of my league so far :).


Thank you for your time

Where to go from here? Don't really know whether I want to roll a new character or continue to optimize this one.

What are some key upgrades I'm missing?


Really appreciated. This build has been amazing fun.

For starters, you got the wrong enchant on your weapon. Chaos damage over time Multiplier is a LOT better than increased Chaos damage. The other weapon unfortunately doesn't have a free prefix, maybe you could craft a better one there.

Next you could maybe try to get an amulet with Chaos damage over Time Multiplier as well. Maybe some additional chaos resistance on the belt as well (especially helps against sirus).

Other than that the gear looks fine IMO

Edit: looked at your profile, you still play with Ancestral Call in your 6 link.
Oils really aren't expensive anymore and Melee Physical Damage Support is a HUGE upgrade, so I'd recommend getting Tribal Fury Anointment and swapping the Gem.
