3.23 EXPLOSIVE ARROW BALLISTA ELEMENTALIST - League-Start to End-Game. Easy mode.

"
I need some help here, folks.

I have played quite a bit of PoE, but more casually, and my last real league has been Heist.

I like to run maps, go delving, run heists - just to earn a bit of currency, and improve my character. I would like to hit level 99 at some point, something which I have never achieved ;) My favorite character was an ED Trickster, but that doesn't seem to be a good choice anymore.

I'm currently sitting at level 77 with this build

and I'm struggling massively with survivability. I haven't yet managed to get through a tier 3 map, have run the lab as far as I could, and I'm struggling with currency.

I have around 50-70c to spend. Damage seems to be fine so far, but I die much too often and much too regularly for comfort. I don't mind a death every now and then, but if I struggle to kill a map boss for tier 2 while running out of portals, that is more frustrating.

I have a feeling I'm missing something here, and I cannot really figure it out what. Any help would be appreciated.


Took a quick look at your pob. I am not an expert, but here are my 2 cents.
Have you been following a guide?

The belt that is most commonly used is the Dyadian Dawn, which is fairly cheap to get. It is probably time to upgrade your bow and chest as well. Getting your spell suppression up to 100% would really help. Consider a Hyrri's Ire, or a rare with Grace/Determination reservation enchant and spell suppression.
A +1/+2 bow should be fairly straightforward with Essences of Dread.
If you level up your Grace and Determination, that should help with survivability. I use a Devouring Diadem to fit all auras, including a Malevolence/Purity of Elements.
Your chaos resists are -60%. Try to get that up to at least 0. Consider an Atziri's Promise flask. Or get a Progenesis if you can afford it.

Best of luck.
So I think i've maxxed this builds potential. Wow its the best i've played since joining poe. yeah i'll lvl to 100 tomorrow but...

and yes, i chose champion over elementalist after trying both, but i think its a question of skill. Frankly i'm awful so i need the extra toughness, but if you are a true player elementalist likely better.

if you have some some suggestions to improve i'm all ears!
Well I’m trying that for fun. Converted a toxic rain champion I was playing around with while trying to get the EA witch to 100, a slow process. At 40% now and running blights at about 1/2% a blight zzzzzz.

So started doing the Champion. Found a pob on the Champion forum. Certainly some changes I probably wouldn’t have noticed. Have one more Ascendancy to run. It’s very tanky with 100% spell suppression. Just need
to get my gems straightened out and do some more retrofitting. Might be a league started depending on where the nerf hammer falls.
Can anyone confirm that "Commandment of Flames" triggers elemental equilibrium and hence hurts the build?

Edit. OK, glove enchants with "on hit" or "on kill" don't trigger with totem skills. On the plus side boot enchants with "if you've not crit recently" are on 100% of the time.
Current Build: Level 100 Elementalist EA Totem

How is this build applying exposure? I don't see anything that is doing that.

Elemental Equilibrium keystone. As long as you don't have any added fire damage on your build, any amount of cold or lightning damage will apply fire exposure.
i'm confused about the combustion+trap set up. when looking at poeninja, there are a lot of characters, usually the ones with the highest damage, that don't use a combustion trap set up, which is wierd because to my understanding, combustion trap set up is used precisely for single target, and not used while mapping right? so i dont get why this is, specially since these characters look more bossing oriented. also, POB shows 100% ignite chance even when used with totems and along with Ancestral Bond. so if someone can help clarify this for me i'd be really thankful, because i assume these characters are not just wrong, like they have great gear and seem to know what they're doing.

But what if... you get to 100% accuracy? :D


Yep, got an armour with mana reserve efficiency and got precision up to lvl 20 and that did it.

Then. I got different armour with increased applying curses and lost that so yep still need to! Thanks for that, appreciate this.
Why use a rare quiver over the skirmish two-point quiver? Are the stats enough to outweigh the extra totem?
