[Outdated] Lancing Steel Raider | SoftCore | Not league starter viable anymore

Hey I'm loving yoru build, i'm running it with the cast when damage taken 4 links on ice golem/ancestral and steelskin/haste and precision. My gems were level 20 but just upgraded them to 20%, but i can't seem to notice any casts. My ice golem is never up and I dont seem to get otehr buffs when i tank a big hit.

Bro you have a saviour+paradox but no 6 link and crap jewelery

Lions 5 link doesnt count since the stats aren't that useful late

thank you for the recommendations, my character feels much stronger now.

Hey Leckarion,

Thanks again for the build, no questions this time figured I might be able to throw a tip in here.

If you buy a "sinvicta's mettle Ezomyte Axe" you can weapon swap to it while starting a trial, kill a mob then swap back to MH/OH and you will gain and maintain rampage. I get up to 1k easy each time.

Has made some of the Trials for the Trialmaster easy for me.

Heya! Thanks for the reply! Bought one of that axe to test it out, feels a bit clunky but it's fun. Thanks for the tip!

Have a great one, buddy!

Your boots need to be linked together with an enlighten gem too

So first your helmet is unlinked.

Your ice golem is a manual cast since you dont have it linked to cast on damage taken

and on your gloves, haste and precision are aura not active skills, the VAAL Haste is an active but cast on damage taken doesnt cast vaal skills



My head/gloves for example, not perfect but synergizes

Lmao sorry dude, bad time to post a request really. I've swapped a lot out and capped my res properly now even with the thread of hope.

Can you check my build again please? Can throw you a few C ingame for the build and help too

Im hoping to fill out my large cluster and then get more life % skill nodes because I'm only on 4.4k

My damage is 4.5mil on pob with the beltimber buff and I dodge like crazy so my survivability is good.

Just all the major upgrades are ex, not sure what the best thing to save for is.

Heya! Just checked your PoB. Are you using Grace aura permanently? For a damage upgrade I can recommend getting pride aura and using only the Vaal Grace part of the gem, but for that you'll probably need to change a tiny bit your gem setups.

You'll have a dps increase if you buy a The Saviour rn, but focus on getting a Dying sun, since it will increase your dps, swap out the Lion's roar for it, since this is not a Melee build and Lion's roar doesn't increase LS damage.

Get a Watcher's Eye with the intimidate while using pride mod.

Try getting a large cluster with 3 notables, being Fuel the Fight and Feed the Fury 2 of them.(Smite the weak is the suffix notable that gives you the most damage out of the 3)

Try leveling up to lvl 90 and reallocating your passives link in this PoB, in it I already set up some of the changes I mentioned above.

After that level up a bit more and try getting a ryslatha's coil(and brace yourself for the resist hit you'll take when removing The Nomad).

Hope that helps for the moment. Have a great one!

Hello

I have a question. The items in this build are the same whether you play raider or champion?

Heya! They are basically the same equipment setups in the endgame, you can even use the same crafted body armour, but the Champion will have to either get Anomalous Blood Rage for the chance to get Frenzy charges on hit or get a Hunter/Redeemer armour with frenzy on hit + the usual +x% to attack critical strike chance and the you can apply an additional curse mods.

Champion fares better stacking armour and exploiting the passive fortify he gets in the ascendancy, Raider/Deadeye work better stacking evasion and dodge for the mitigation and reaching a good enough life that will prevent you from being one shot by almost all monster's attacks(expect bosses, but agaisnt bosses you just need to lkearn the mechanics).

Hope that Answers the question! Have a great one!

Your Path of buildings are kinda diffrent from the written guide, which one should I follow? Gear progression from low to mid budget doesn't mention buying The Saviour, instead it says to buy Paradoxica, while mid-budget PoB shows that the weapons we are using are: Beltimber Blade and The Saviour. There are some other diffrences too, like gem levels.

Heya! Thanks for replying!


TL;DR: Follow the PoBs and ask for any guidance and stuff here because unfortunatelly I'm currently not able to sit down and update every aspect of the guide because of work but will do that as soon as I have the time.

I'm having some time management issues because of work in the last 5 or so days, so I'm focusing on updating the PoBs first and answering questions people ask in the replies. For the time being I recommend following the Low-budget PoB until you have around 4 mil dps and enough currency to buy The Saviour, the get one and try to start transitioning into the Mid-budget PoB. I updated the PoB files with 2 beltimbers to reflect the current price of the weapon, because usually by this point in leagues The Saviour is easily affordable. I don't currently know exactly what's influencing its price in the way it is, but that's life. The Saviour greatly increases clearspeed and is actually a priority in the build, that's the reason it is descriped as that in the gear recommendation, and is actually supposed to be acquired in the low budget, but because of the prices I had to optimize the Low budget PoBs with 2 beltimbers in order for it to remain low budget and affordable. In some days I'll have a day off and will be able to go through all the guide and update everything accordingly, but for now the best I can do is update urgent stuff and answer posts in the forum between my work tasks. I'm really sorry for the confusion that this discrepancy might cause and will work this out in the near future.

Hope that answers your questions and explain the guide's current situation. Have a great one and feel free to ask any further questions.
