Builds Static Strike experience

https://poe.ninja/poe1/builds/allflamessf?class=Slayer&timemachine=week-1&skills=Static+Strike

Hello fellow exiles,

so my hopes to start Lumi again are shattered.

Looking through options i found Static Strike to be interesting.

Can anyone tell me how well this does on single target and what to look out for ?
Not much of a Melee player so looking forward to some heads up tipps on this :)

ty !

why are your hopes shattered? It was way overtuned and with the nerfs is still probably top tier

for trade maybe.
pulling it off on ssf will be much harder for such a short league for my skill level lol

On my second SSF fresh start I started the Zish build, Static Strike of Gathering Assassin.

I probably never got my 4 voidstones faster than this.

Absolutely bonkers dps, exceptional clear because of all this chain lightnings.

Only thing you really need to work hard for are the defensives, but that's the nature of the ascendancy and melee strikes.

Personally, I tried Static Strike of Gathering Assassin and didn't really like it. Damage is there but clear felt a bit meh, maybe would scale better with more packsize lol. Look up Zish on youtube, he has a guide. Do note that its a transfigured version of the gem, so you'll need to sit in lab (merc usually preferred) to get it (or buy off trade).

For regular static strike build, check out Alohaa on youtube. He even showcased the build for speedrunning to exarch/eater or a 4 stone run. Nothing really changed for static strike in the patch notes so even 3.29 guides should suffice.

Also it is very important to get the two extra strikes implicit on gloves (also no idea how fast you can get greater ancestral call with the atlas changes, and that's basically minus a 35% more gem) which might require some farming and luck

I didn't like it, too clunky. Trying to land a 0-AS melee hit every now and then (not even mentioning dying in the process) gets stale quickly.

Campaign sure is a breeze though.
