[3.25] The Dancing Mistress - Chaos/Poison Dancing Dervish Necro

You're right that it's not for impale; It still prevents the situation of "suddenly take almost no damage,".

As for the the rest of your post... I don't know who you are? All I know is your previous alias that I don't recognize (which you seem to have wanted wiped so I wont mention it here) and that comes from Raskoril who has credited you so I'm just really confused right now? If you think I was talking down on Raskoril how about you ask him yourself what he thinks of his PoB skills lol.

As for the OG of this particular Dervish meta, the OG is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6gqrsXHVFc who I learned of after Tarke brought the subject of Dancing Duo up and talked about them on a Delve Baeclast. The OG OG of Dervish is Megadarth, who kept a regular detailed blog about Dervish since their release up until 3.4. Then there's Yordle's, whose Animated Arsenal build was the first guide I ever followed and used that build as a springboard for my own build and guide. It's the build with the s

Not the OG. I played this build when the sword got reworked in 3.1.0 and kept playing it until my official first release being back in 3.4 Delve, and I then kept it updated up until and including 3.8. Though I'm not the OG, either. I borrowed a basic concept of some other guy (with credit, though), who used a different playstyle because this was before the sword's first major rework. I later adapted it when the rework came out.

None of the people you mentioned are the OG, they are just the ones that were covered the most. As we all know by now, content creators tend to not do a background check on where the original idea is from, and that's how build thieves slipped through the cracks. In this day and age, with how many people have played this game, however, there are bound to be some overlaps. This type of stuff was a major issue back then due to how fresh the game was and people were trying to "make it" on YouTube. Not that it really matters anymore anyway.

I do apologize for my snarky remark and I'll edit it out, but I was under the impression you came here to start something, as I see no particular reason for you to be here when you have your own guides and videos. And it's kinda rude to pop into someone's thread to then talk about your own builds. Your initial opener didn't exactly come across as polite, despite your disclaimer, it reads like a backhanded remark. You may not remember, I still do, but we used to clash over this exact build for... reasons. It's not worth getting into, it's been years at this point, I just don't forget this type of thing. No longer any hard feelings, though.

Anyways, I didn't exactly spend much time on this. I crafted most of the stuff pretty cheap with Harvest bench, nowhere near "70 Div in cluster jewels", and I left this guide to rot because I will not be updating it. Just another little side project from when I was bored, as tends to happen quite a lot these days. Game hasn't been the same for me since 3.9.

Ah I see, you're right I am coming in on a bit of a high horse but that also comes from that 90% of the time Dervish is mentioned, I and more recently definitely Raskoril (look what you inspired, the current King :P) get brought up. If not I usually show up because I just enjoy discussing Dervish. That kind of feedback doesn't just end at me though ;)

I do actually like your build (and have edited my earliest response with what I like) but felt a weird vibe coming off you with the aforementioned focus I pointed out and felt I had to defend the "quality" of the current state of my build which I'm pretty proud of as you could tell.

Thanks for enlightening me, it's nice to know some more deep lore on the item. It's always nice to meet someone who enjoys Dervish, especially someone before my time which is rare for me, sorry I didn't make that clear from the beginning.

Next to Eye of Innocence, it's actually my favorite item in the game! Always loved the concept, but also always hated its main drawback. It's 2024 and we still need a second gem slot for Predator and the swords are still not permanent. I want to see something like this in PoE 2. I wonder if they are gonna add it.

Anyways, all good. Glad we could clear the air. Take care.

Hey, just want to chime in with a few things here:

Yes, I am TERRIBLE with pob, and only use it for my build because people constantly bug me to. After five years straight of playing the build I have the entire thing memorized and don't use any outside tools.

I agree chaos is superior in nearly every way- as I've stated to many people before the main reason I play impale is because I like the sounds. I'm weird like that.

The current state of my build is reasonably tanky, and if I were a more patient person I could reliably hit 100 through mapping or delve. I prefer bossing, and can reliably kill ubers as Bella has said. Whether this is because of the build or my 12 years of experience in poe is debatable.

Regardless of where I stand now I know you guys and more are the true original masters and I generally try to reflect that when I talk to people. I still think it's wild I get people I don't even know messaging me or talking about me, when that's how I still feel about YOU guys. I'm just some weirdo who loves flying swords, and I'm glad we can get others to enjoy this funky little item GGG has given us =)

Also I want to say a big THANK YOU for your original guide. It rekindled my love for poe after years of stagnation, and my excitement for playing hasn't dulled since 3.7. If you ever want to try the impale version again just for shits I'd be happy to tell you whatever I can =)

Well, you're welcome. I'm glad at least one of us still gets as much fun out of it. For me personally, the game peaked around 3.7 to 3.8, and went downhill since 3.9. I'm actually glad that PoE 2 is playable now; I was already bored to death with PoE 1. Have fun.
