Thanks for the guide...this will be my league start ssf. Good luck all!

Awesome Royella!

Your welcome and good luck as well!

Thanks! I hit level 20 this morning before work. I play Xbox ssf standard. I like to keep a log of gear progression, it's fun to look back at how your toon grows. Here is my gear so far:

*whistle*

I'm pretty new back to PoE, but am I missing something? Playing Metamorph league, I'm at level 43 and have found 4 unique items, none of which were really useful for me at all. Your gear is better than mine, at level 20. Is there some sort of particularly effective way to farm for decent lowbie gear?

Thank you for a lovely build!
Any advice how I can improve damage?

I've been playing this build in SC SSF and have had a lot of fun. A few of my recommendations to those starting out:

- Add in Leap Slam for mobility if you like that style. I think removing culling strike or Tempest Shield if you don't have any other spots and/or if you have high enough block already
- Avoid the Vaal Pact node if you are doing Lab Trials or the Labrynth. Having no regen really sucks for those. I haven't found Vaal Pact necessary in my build yet but that could change later.
- There are some metamorphs which do a lot of chaos damage (not sure really what goes on but my health drops a lot sometimes). I've found having chaos flask or remove poison flask is helpful to substitute in right before the fight.
- This build is amazing for mobs who come at you and attack. It can be a bit frustrating to kill tanky mobs who don't really attack (e.g. they summon stuff or run around). Sometimes best just to leave them and move on to kill other mobs quickly :)
- I'm still not clear if I should use gear with any Evasion because I'm concerned that means I won't block. If anyone knows the answer let me know. I have Thousand Teeth Temu but I'm not using it for that reason.
- Finally I found the belly during a metamporh battle after killing Tolman in Act 8. Haven't had much luck yet with any chase uniques otherwise but here's hoping :)

Cheers!

Well, I loosely followed your build, and got to lvl 89.5.

It's not bad! I replaced main skill with lacerate, with focus on bleeding. It's wrecking through the content quite safely.

Everyone's welcome to look at my char - Anhedonian

I farmed all that gear with a previous character and had it sitting in my stash. Good luck on the grind! Hope you find some good stuff.

Ok, hit level 61 SSF and just killed Milagro. Still progressing very smoothly, I'm taking it slow and enjoying the ride, clearing all levels and doing the metamorphs. I also ventured into the mine a bit at the end of the night last night to play around.

The build just wrecks standard mobs without even bothering to think about anything. Just click Bladestorm and leap slam to next mob, pick up goodies, rinse / repeat.

A couple notes. I gave up on Tempest shield to add Reckoning to go with Vengeance. Seems better and I really notice the counter-attacks flaring up all the time.

I heartily endorse Leap Slam to jump into the very middle of packs. You want to be surrounded and being able to get out should you get a strong boss is equally important. I just maximizes your Bladestorm and speeds up getting around. Also very underrated to be able to leap across small gaps, especially in the lab.

I did the first lab and I'm getting ready to do the cruel lab soon to get the Ascendancy to block spell damage.

I'm still using Double Strike (Vaal) as my boss killer as I think it's better than adding Riposte at this point. It just shreds them at this point, even with a crappy rare sword I used an essence on. I still don't have a 5-link or six-link yet. I have a six socket armor that I'm running a Stone Golem on for life regen (mainly for labs). Hopefully I'll find something soon. I gave it about a dozen tries to six-link it but was unsuccessful and decided to save my links for a higher end armor.

I died a few times to some high Chaos damage bosses before I got a decent flask to combat that. So far it's still passing the fun test and using the Vaal double strike on bosses while using Bladestorm to clean up the masses and whittle down bosses is working like a charm.

The character still passes the fun test and it's great to play Melee and feel tanky for once, especially after running a Necromancer glass cannon in Blight.

I've really enjoyed this build, I took the bottom wing of the skill tree for mana leech and then went to the left, now almost done with the right section in act 9 and will finish up the middle for the life nodes. 4 life flasks and 1 mana (which isn't used much anymore) has worked fine, it's rare to need that much life, I might switch 1-2 for boss tankiness.

It's been really fun finding a new weapon which has nice physical damage, I found one last night and my dps jumped 50% from the previous.

The only issue I've had is massive lag spikes which started with this league, some of the metamorph boss spawns are killed before my screen even refreshes 1 frame, so being able to hit a potion and pray works really well with this build thanks to its tankiness. Even walking across a zone as each little pack of trash come on screen, I get a 1 second of 0fps and big lag spike. Medium texture to limit the special effects helps some, but again this tanky build is great for these circumstances.

Hello everyone,

I've been enjoying this build a lot! Currently at level 86 with the following gears:



Everything seems to go very smooth, my only problem is with events that require you to quickly kill multiple monsters like Blight or Legion Encounters, does anyone has any tips on what gear should I pursue now to advance more?

Nice gear! My biggest tip is six link that armor so you can use the fully linked bladestorm. I am lvl 80 and running a tabula, just creaming things. I focused on leveling another build the last few days so have neglected this build a little. Hope to get back on it, here is my gear atm (ssf):
