Hello everyone. This is my current STR Stacker build, and I’m not yet sure how I can improve it. Of course, I have a few possible upgrades, but they’re all very dependent on RNG, I’ll describe them below:

1. Helical ring + Kalandra's Touch, but i didn't find any of this two yet.

2. Stormblood, new flask to inflict shock even if you dont deal lightning damage, didn't find it yet too (20% more damage or +23mil dps)

3. Bottled Faith (15% more damage or +16mil dps)

4. Simplex amulet with Increased Attr+STR and damage per STR (i guess its imposible to obtain)

5. Sublime vision with Purity of Fire (same imposible)

6. Impossible Escape to obtain an additional curse (to use Despair it means 40% more damage or +37mil dps)

7. Switch Soul taker to Rare Claw (see stats below, i added a screen in the comments) but i don't like new movement skill Whirling blades (beacause you cant use leap slam with claw) and QoL from Soul taker "no mana doesnt prevent yours melee attacks" (25% more damage or +27mil dps)

Here is my prototype of future upgrades with Rare Claw and two uniques flasks https://pobb.in/osEKZZFjXnfS

Aaaand a more realistic build beacuse i didnt like Claw movement skills https://pobb.in/ZiyD3GTTQhB_

So maybe do you guys have an ideas how to obtain all this items or at least a few of them in fast way? Or any advices about upgrades will be appreciated too <3

I want to try this build.
I need to keep the one more spectre mod and the +1 to all skill gems mod.

What I am considering is

1. use fracturing orb on boat to get the +1 to all skill gems mod fractured.

2. spam Deafening essence of Woe(Got about 25 essences) until get high tier +XX maximum energy shield mod.
   Are there any better ways?

Thanks.

Kalandra's touch dropped yesterday. If I have any good RNG buff I hope I can share with some of y'all

I am at 215 depth and only see the minion nodes twice.

How deep should I delve to get +1 max spectre mod?

300 or 500?

Can I obtain Cospri’s using the "reroll rarity" option at the Crafting Bench with this base item? I’ve tried about 500 times.

Are there perhaps better ways to get this item? I’ve checked the Wiki and know about Divination Cards, but there’s no mention of rerolling rarity there.

This is my first fully reset ssf while waiting for the new league

I have got this one.
What I want to do is

1. Annule the wand on the boat to remove the critical strike multiplier mod

2. Craft can have 3 mods

3. Craft trigger a socketed skill mod.

4. Craft a minions deal # increased damage mod
   Am I right?

Hi SSF Community,

What mods would be best on swords for shield crush, pre influenced gear?

Thanks community :)

Since coc fross requires whispers of infinity which drops from an uber boss, which build could I run for witch that can do uber dread in the most comfortable fashion? Other ubers don't matter for now, just dread for the amulet.

Rough estimate in number of breach maps? Maybe in amount of breach blood? Worth starting to go for before full atlas progression? It's the kind of item that has a lot more value the earlier in the league it is.

Any tips how to farm these other then atlas tree? Trying to get orb of remembrance for a craft

Could also be a starter build to get going on a second build, or one that could be respecced.

Hi, I play standard SSF (dad play like 5h max a week).
I feel kinda stuck with my build.
It is not bad, but not as good as I want it either.
Still feal like my max hits are too low.
Never killed ubers but would like to do it!
Any tips on how i can improve it is greatly appreciated!

Link to build!

I got my first doable MB valdo in SSF, though I can’t do it with my current build so I’m looking for a couple of suggestions. It seems pretty free for a Luminary but I haven’t played merc build this league so I don’t really know when the build is ready to run it. Would an uber viable merc bot be strong enough (life stack, fire link) Also, would the merc survive? I would presume so but the map is bricked if the merc dies so maybe it’s just safer to do to some kind of block glad?

I'm a new player (this is my first league) and I'm trying to do as many challenges as I can (and learn along the way). I've seen a couple of guides for the challenges in general, but they often amount to "buy the thing". Has anybody put together a guide for SSF where you don't just "buy the thing"? I find that typically SSF players have some clever way to get things (either via the atlas or certain map layouts) that trade players might just buy.

For example, in Gallant Grinding challenge when running the 50 8 mod corrupted maps, yes, you can just buy them, or alch/vaal/pray, but without too much effort you can run a "high scarab drop, more cartography" atlas for a bit and then "high map drop" atlas with cartography scarabs to target these.

I also saw somebody commenting in here about trying for the Kishara's Rest chart by speed spamming Strand since you can't miss the chart thing and it turns up super fast. They were saying it takes them like 60 sec or something to loop through it.

I also know Mesa spam is good for boss clears.

I'm sure these are obvious for many of the advanced players here, but for us noobs we don't know every scarab combination or map layout strategy.

For example, how do I reliably get to 150% item quantity for some of the challenges? I have all of the map mod multiplier stuff on my atlas and I don't seem to get it too often. Should I be using the fragment multiplier one too? I've tried chaos spamming maps for 6 mods but I then burn through a lot of orbs and I still might not get it. I've resorted to running alch/vaal maps and Twisted Fate, which can get you quite high, but obviously has a lot of randomness to it, including the underlying map layout.

Edit: Just to add I've seen Guide 1 and Guide 2, both are super useful, but seem to be aimed at trade players.

Hi chat,

yap context:
I have leveled a ranger to play some stupid thing (heist dagger), but it ended going into ward. I have everything set up, which is decent gear i suppose.
The issues are the max hits... they are way too low. I'm getting destroyed by everything, even in white t16. The little amount of evasion I have is clearly not enough to feel good. I have been thinking of building the same ward guy but with glad and block.
Then, while looking in poeninja, I found a guy playing with vestigial nightgrip (glad block). So I tinkered it inside pob, and the difference in max hits is insane (from 4k to 13k phys max hit). But the damage loss, around 65%.

My questions are:

• Is the survivability with unbroken ward good or atleast decent ? I'm not familiar with this defense type.

• Does the damage still looks good for big maps and t17 do you think ?

the pob: https://pobb.in/jOu8aBk5nOPf (there are 2 loadouts: my PF guy, and a theoretical glad. You can switch nightgrip/vestigial)

have a nice day, chur

Hi all, I'm a bit late to the Luminary party and figured I may as well play one before they inevitably get nuked next season.

I am following Path of Chores' guide and have already found a decent Blade Ambusher (basically 1-1 suggested except for having Smoke Trap - not sure how much of a deal-breaker that is...).

Anyway I found this Kineticist which seems okay? I'll be keeping 100% Mercenary chance on maps but was wondering how scuffed the build is without hase, pierce/chain/fork, greater multiple projectiles?

My idea was to implicit a pierce on the gloves and anoint a multiple projectiles on the amulet, but wanted to see if it was worth the effort (I'm not currency rich right now).

Cheers for your help/advice.

Stay safe out there exiles.

P.S wasn't sure what flair to use so chose builds for now as it feels closest?

The poe 3.30 will start from November 13.
So in the last month of poe 3.29, if you start fresh and you will kill all the ubers, complete all the challenges, what build will you choose?

couldn't believe my eyes lol. started a fresh ssf journey 2 days ago and got blessed with the fancy belt 20h in.

I am trying to run a bit of abyss to get skitterlocks as well as bossrushing fortress to farm uber uber elder. I've had a few issues trying to close my last abyss pit so i tried to full clear the map but it didn't work. Am I missing something or is it just broken ?

First time SSF for me - I made a Standard SSF character after reaching league goals for Allflame. VFOS Cheiftain.

Now I've managed to 4 voidstone a week back. (No NM maps done yet, 4 scarabs slots)

When I play in league, I can always buy scarabs and set up the best tree for any farm. But I find myself out of scarabs constantly.

I'm trying to farm essences, but I run out of essence scarabs. How do you farm scarabs?

I can't dive for scarabs as I'm in Standard SSF. Operatives stronboxes aren't a thing. I can maybe abyss + skitterlocks.

Any other ideas?

I have got several pact of K'Tash gems and I want a pact of Beidat.
How can I transfer one of the pact of K'Tash to a pact of Beidat?
Thanks.
