Forgot to add the gear section I recorded so here is an imgur link to see all the gear: imgur.com/a/9jPVWCV It's pretty straight forward, life, mana, resistances, dexterity, intelligence, and as many added melee skill gem levels as possible. Also, because it is an unarmed attack, shattering palm only scales from increased elemental damage with attacks on the weapon, so that is nice to get.

So many questions. It's spirit intensive. But to get the spirit, you need the evasion. So gear is critical. As well as being high enough level to make it to all the necessary nodes. It seems like this is a build you would respec into as opposed to building from the start. So what build would you suggest we use to farm the 1) gear and 2) levels? And then the breakpoints to make the switch? I thought I'd ask. I know it's a hefty question(s). Truly appreciate the ingenuity. Bravo!

Dude this is sick! I've been trying to keep up with all the invoker guides out there going to have to try it out! I've been theorycrafting using the weapon swap for palm skills. You are RIGHT next to all the juicy unarmed nodes, the Mark nodes next to the big Dex node AND some huge curse nodes next to the elemental damage increase nodes. It seemed like it might be clunky but with the right set up it might be insane.
@Hypsudo2 күн бұрын
I've tried weapon swap setups but didn't like the weapon swap delay. I also opted for more generic damage points over the unarmed points because when using our storm wave to trigger the shatter our heralds and shattering palm explosions would no longer benefit from that increased area of effect, also 25% reduced damage is hefty price to pay for spreading ice crystals a bit further. Blasphemy ended up costing too much spirit and did not have enough radius even with the curse points since we need to use magnified effect on our shattering palm. However, if you want curse effect and mark effect for single target I could see that being good. I was only level 89 and there is still room to grow.

I found using tempest bell with ruthless support helped a lot on bosses to stun them. You might also try Ice Strike instead of Tempest Flurry allowing you to get both a stun and a freeze on the boss. But yes, monk leveling was fairly rough in the early campaign, it suffers from all the same melee problems as warrior without being nearly as tanky. To help compensate for this a little bit I recommend the flat energy shield and evasion points at the start of the skill tree, they get a lot of value early on even though they will get out scaled by % increases later on.

@Hypsudo2 күн бұрын
Blasphemy has a very high curse penalty as well as very little radius in exchange for a very high spirit cost. I tried to incorporate it and use some curse points on the tree to extend its range but it just didn't seem worth it. With my current set up I am already one-shotting every white monster in tier 15 maps without needing to make them have negative resistances, and for those enemies that do have resistance our penetration will be penetrating it. Since penetration is applied last, bringing a rare from 40 res down to 20 with a blasphemy conductivity set up will just lead us to get half value from our 40 penetration and serve no real benefit at killing them faster. Also you don't need any fire damage on gear, herald of ash will be igniting enemies for us while mapping, and for bosses you can use infernal cry to allow your storm wave to apply an ignite.

This build looks so fun! i am currently playing flicker strike but In definitely trying this tmr. One question though. Do you think this build would work with Crit + Elemental Expression? Or does it not work with Shattering Palm. I was just thinking since there is so many procs and hits on this build, as well as attributes, that it would actually look cool and synergize well. Taking And Sunder My Enemies would remove the need for penetration too. But all of that is meaningless if Shattering Palm cant crit 😂
@HypsudoКүн бұрын
So crit scaling is relatively difficult in PoE 2, you really have to design your entire build around it and even then it won't be 100% more like 60% at best. This means Sunder My Enemies will only be ignoring resistance half the time making our explode chain less consistent. Also, shattering palm has a low base crit of only 11, whereas a good staff with added base crit suffix can get to like 16, so its likely not going to work too well. It's unfortunate but hopefully more crit enabling uniques or gems will be added to the game in the future to allow for 100% crit chance builds. I guess there is the option to use ambush support, but i still think the amount of point investment it would take on the tree would end up giving us less consistent damage overall. Explode really wants consistency because that allows the chain to travel the furthest, if at some point in the explode chain things don't crit it could mess with the distance it travels.
@lumineon.Күн бұрын
Gotcha. Makes sense. Thanks for the detailed response. I only really have 50% crit chance and that's with a 14% crit base and high DPS weapon. At max I can get it to 70% but as you said, it's a lot of investment on the tree, but at the very least you can respec out of any penetration. I may give it a try after I copy your build. Would be interesting to see how elemental expression looks with it more than anything lol.

So I’ve mostly set this build up identically, and my shattering palm isn’t causing the explosions everytime. Maybe 2 out of 5 times? Sometimes not even that.
@HypsudoКүн бұрын
Shattering Palm's initial unarmed attack is not always going to kill the enemy to start the reaction, as seen in the game play footage, this is why the normal combo consists of Shattering Palm followed by Storm Wave. If it was just a 1 button build it would be too broken haha.

@@Hypsudo gotcha, so shattering palm will kill on the initial hit once I manage to scale the Dmg from it high enough? And then whatever doesn’t die from it gets touched again with storm wave? Makes more sense now

@@JahazielArias It is possible yes. My tooltip is currently at 20,000 dps and that is not considering all the buffs that will be active. With 30 rage and ice bite and innervate active it can 1 shot as seen towards the end of the game play.

Maybe im not understanding the question but palm is the setup and damage but you need to be able to destroy the crystals in one hit of shock wave. So you dash to with palm it procs the crystals and then you use shock wave to destroy the crystals causing the explosions.

@HypsudoКүн бұрын
You probably can only afford one herald and one defensive aura. You definitely want to use Wind Dancer with evasion gear to help evade a lot of damage. I used tempest flurry + tempest bell with herald of thunder, but using ice strike + tempest bell and herald of ice is probably equally effective, if not safer because you will be freezing enemies.

Does this build work with Ice Strike instead of Storm Wave?

maybe you can use "8% of mana cost taken from life" on Jewels and when you have the 4% life on kill support gem or Vitality gem it would top off your life whenever you killed mobs and it would help for bossing as well since you dont have to wait for a kill to regain mana it would just take a little bit of the life pool when casting
@Hypsudo36 минут бұрын
I thought about this but it disables some "while on full life" points on our passive tree, would have to spec out of those. Also, on bosses, unless we have very good life regeneration, we would end up killing ourselves. I found just the 2% mana on kill jewel to solve my mana while mapping, flat mana on kill on rings and gloves can also solve it.

@Hypsudo2 күн бұрын
My gear is not actually that impressive yet, but yes some of the increased melee skill level gear can be pricey. I would prioritize getting a weapon with +6 and 100% increased elemental damage with attacks, and then use 2 soul Cores of Citaqualotl for 60% more. Weapons like this are actually quite cheap because most players prioritize flat damage. The support gems were organized by importance so just use what you have room for, but one trick is to vaal orb 3 socket gems for a chance at getting 4 sockets, they can't be further modified after this but can still be leveled up.
