mohamedibrahimel-emary2384: well I think I will start with this build, Thank you for your effort
TheNJSx: dude i love you, im new to poe 1 and can never find a comprehensive guide to any build. ill definitely be playing this build,
volxd: The POB doesn't seem to work. Says it's using an unrecognized version of the passive tree.
TaoKatsu: Nice guide. I was looking for a smooth/satisfying starter using a stat a bit off radar. Might take a try!
NJ-ce7yt: great build! thx :)
can u upload early atlas guide?
doygo0: Do you have a PoB release (not beta) version? Because I'm getting a "different version" error while trying to import your pobbin
nathancourcy8375: How do you thinking bossing is going to be ? how much investment to get dot cap do you think ?
Shellw2: Question: have you tried leveling with soulrend? I'm a bit iffy about trying to stand still and channel in the acts, when you have like 0 gear.
EldenSaul: Man's been playing so much poe2 that when he comes back to poe1 he's still playing a 4 button build haha.
Jokes aside, looking very solid. Trickster primarily for the defences i assume? Since occultist would be more dps, especially single target which is where this build i imagine struggles a bit more :S
Also, stream on youtube, twitch going under :^)
SharmaForLlama: Thanks for this, I was considering an occultist, but I will start with your guide. Looks good.
greatgamingendavour: Bait build , Dot has limit on how much at once it can deal danage unlike hit danage .
animateddude34: I like it.
robertunthank8067: you know what i miss ED/Contagion days. This will scratch that itch and seems to be better at the bossing then ED was. Thanks for the hard work
Chocoholic1337: Awesome! I've been browsing through all the league starters that people have uploaded.
But I think I will choose to play this! Thanks for providing us with the video and looking forward to see updates from you.
Subscribed! :)
Amonkira1029: Are the blue ghosts from the Necropolis Kirac pass? I feel like they're kinda essential for the visual flow of the build
the1onlynoob: what do you think about dropping bane for golems? some of the newer buffs golems provide seems relevant, and only really need a 3 link like 2 golem meat shield, then drop bane and just hard cast despair.
chaos golem gives 16% dot multi and 17% chaos resist, flame golem is 29% damage and 20% aoe, and stone golem is 20% all defenses, and can be scaled on the tree with stuff like golem commander.
dennismaes6319: Love the idea. I'll probably do a wintertide brand occultist, but I'm considering yours now!
On a sidenote - What is your lootfilter? I love those sounds
asthmaticninja4430: Quick question for you, can you talk through the reasoning behind your ascendancy choices?
Is there any benefit to other ascendancies? I know chaos dot in the past has been occultist as well
multipass8519: may be biased, but im trying to decide between this build and a sanguine/reap miner trickster. which one scales better? which would be better for ravaged blighted maps?
kevinmacwan48: I haven't watched the full vid yet but my immediate reaction was how well would this work on an occultist? I am a profane bloom enjoyer, And ifit works well on her I would rather play her even if I might have to let go of some level of tankiness.
ioanlascu5016: Hello, is it possible de go spellslinger until let's say yellow maps ? Did you experienced this ?
And other question : did you consider the new support gem Focused Channeling support ? Up to 60% more dmg, might be good for bosses.
Kyun9432: As you went back and forth between the games, what do you think of PoE2 compared to PoE1?
colehodgson7352: Hello chaos dot enjoyer, how much money do you think I need to swap into mamba?
Dizturb3dwun: This looks interesting. I wonder how it works in ravaged blight, and how it scales with investment
MAX-zl1cg: I am not very convinced.
Chaos dot builds have always had one weakness - Single Target dmg. In your maps I see all that rares alive all the time.
Also another weakpoint is they are very squishy especially when you stand still and need to channel for 3 seconds.
Another weakpoint is they are slow compared to those massive blasters.
Also I dont get why you select Trickster who got nerfed over witch who got buffed massively thx to Vile Bastion and few extra nodes very close to start.
