Anyway, any tips/advice on whether to use the Iron Heart Crusader plate from veterans? I'm dubious because the spell blocking limitation as that was what I was going to go for in the Cruel Lab.

I don't suggest using that chest piece. It basically nullifies one of our ascendancy nodes. It is lots of damage but at the cost of a large amount of defence.I think a nice rare chest with lots of life and resists (and the sockets you want) is best. But that's my opinion.

Thanks Wrecker, I came to the same conclusion last night after equipping it and seeing only a marginal damage increase. It's not worth the trade off.

So I finished Cruel Lab last night and although I got a crappy boot mod that added lightning damage only if I haven't damaged lately, I did find a nice sword with added physical and cold damage and 20% increase attack speed, so I finally have a decent weapon. The build feels like it's rolling again as I immediately began mowing down mobs again like the early days and rolled all the way to maps. The Lab also dropped a 6-link Chain Mail that I don't have enough Intelligence to use (my character that is, I know how to equip it). I'm looking for an easy way to get a passive node and use it, but I'm not sure I can get 5 red and 1 green link, so I may just keep rolling with my 4-link until I can find a strength based 6-link armor. We will see.



Might I add that the new little mini-quest to get the map device is tedious. I guess it has a story element, but after getting the map device last league, I was excited to jump right in only to find I had to do more running...

I'm currently hunting for Chaos Resist gear to get from -5 currently into the positive and of course, better overall gear and a 6-link.

Anyway, thanks again for the help and the great build. Really having fun and the first map I ran was great. Can't wait to spend some time cleaning out my inventory and getting ready for the Atlas progression. Level 74 and going.

Hey Wrecker, just wanted to add my thanks to the thread. Really enjoying the build. I hadn't played since Betrayal because I got frustrated with the performance issues leading to progression stalling at level 87. Got the itch to play again and someone linked to your builds on reddit and I decided to try this one out.

I probably should have read the thread first because I put too much focus on defense in my gear so far I think. I'll have to see if I can adjust things as I find other gear.

I'm at level 84 and hoping this is the first character I get to 90 at the very least. I stalled on the storm brand Iquisitor in Betrayal at 87. I'm never going to be a very good player, but this has been the tankiest build I think I've played on both PC and PS4.

Anyway, good to see someone that posts SSF builds and actually means it. So many I have found say they are, but then end up mentioning specific gear that you need to get.

Thanks for the time you put into this. It is one of the great things about the game. The community is filled with helpful people. With the complexity of the game that really helps keep people coming back I'm sure.

I'm already getting the itch to try another build. I enjoy my casters even though I always end up too squishy. But will be pushing this was as far as I can before the league ends.

So far I am lvl 83, first character I went so high on lvl because I lose fast my fun when builds getting complicated. Your builds helping me enjoying the game and getting stuff to try out more, thank you Wrecker_of_Days.

I am not so well into min and maxing out characters so I wanted to ask if this here is ok, or if I have spots I can improve.

what if i want to do dual axes instead of 1hand/shield? is that possible? can i just take the dual wielding nodes instead of the block nodes?

How have you gotten that axe and shield so quickly? Damn. I am lvl 85 and nowhere near having the 5-6ex it would take to buy those.

Then you would need to find something that replace Reckoning, because it needs a shield, if I am not mistaken.

Just checking in after the weekend (hey, it helps the work day go by faster to think about POE).

I hit level 80 for the first time. I realize I didn't know anything about the game at all prior to Blight and I still no very little.

I'm SSF, so no super gear. Still running 4-link armor with a 2-link addition that I'm using for a Golem. I switched out the Stone Golem for a Fire Golem to push the damage higher.

Changes I made over the weekend. I switched Leap Slam to a 3-link and moved Reckoning to a 4-link. Big difference! Even bigger when I switched out Bleed and Life Gain for Pulverize and Brutality.

I found this nice sword which bumped damage a bit.


I ran the Merciless Lab and added the Violent Retaliation to go with Painforged and Versatile Combatent. I just finished the Bloodless notable and life passives. I've pretty much maxed my skills and I'll be trying for +life nodes. I haven't taken Vaal Pact or Resolute Technique. Not sure about either.

Overall progress, I just killed Baran and got my first Watchstone and I'm still trying to find better gear, especially with chaos resistance. I may run a few labs to try to improve my glove modifier. I tried helmet and boots and got pretty worthless mods.

I delved a bit but I'm only down to about 20 and not sure if it's worth my while.

Overall, the build is a tank. I've died a few times to one shots, but I think my negative chaos resist helped. I'm comfortably running T5 maps and not sure if I should place the watchstone or try to open up another corner in the T1-T5 range to find another Conqueror.

I've only made like 30c in currency, but I"m having the most fun I've had in the game. My Necromancer last league was easy, but I don't feel it was as rewarding as this character. Really loving the in-your-face playstyle.

Thanks again Wrecker.

Cast dmg when taken? but with what links?

Just click Bladestorm and leap slam to next mob, pick up goodies, rinse / repeat.

Nice tip, I've been using Dash but leap slam seems more versatile.

Question for anyone - I was lucky enough to come across a 6L today, but it's corrupted and is 3G2B1R. Aside from Close Combat, are there any Dex or Int support gems that are good enough to make the 6L better to use than say a 4L that I can customize more explicitly?
