It Literally Jumps Through The Maps! Gladiator Leap Slam + Lacerate Build, T17, Ubers [PoE 3.25]

[@K2Gaming_]

"Your acrobatics skill increased" 😁 Even though it has 17M effective hit pool (and infinite with fortify) - it doesn't mean it's immortal. It can tank many small hits, but few strong hits can still oneshot, also many skills of pinnacle bosses cannot be blocked, so be careful, with dots too. Good luck and have fun! Thanks to everyone who supports my channel, love you guys! :)

Nice build! I've made my version of it with 79/77/77/75 res, 100% suppresion, 91/88 block, elemental ailment immune and it feels great :D

[@K2Gaming_]

thanks, nice work! Just wonder, it was very tanky already, so with even more investment into defenses, how much dps left? or you have mirror tier axe?

[@JakeL-r3r]

Nice build! A quick question though - why do you use bladestorm of uncertainty vs regular bladestorm?

[@K2Gaming_]

thanks! it's just to be more exotic :) no big difference, just bladestorm of uncertainty has bit higher base dmg and it alternates between blood and sand storms, so sand storm can move, sometimes it feels better, for example when I opened abysses (or when levelled on Coward's Trial maps) I often stayed and held bladestorm, so with moving storms it's move area coverage. But for its main purpose as culling and maim on bosses - normal version is just fine

[@TaleBr003]

Nice build!! Just a noob question, how i put 88/88% block chance? Am stuck at 65% hahahah

[@K2Gaming_]

thanks! As I mentioned here 12:16, 88 block is with "lucky", so we need to set "blocked recently" in config. But if you set it already and still 68 - then not all passives taken, or you have less block in your shield

[@gabbaman18]

It looks funny just jumping around 😂 great build. Would the mageblood be also good for the build ?

[@K2Gaming_]

thanks! as for MB - yes and no. It will be faster (higher and constant movement speed for taking loot etc) and more tanky (higher armour), but without ryslatha's coil dps will be much lower, in my POB it drops from 21M to 13.7M

[@wihalleycarvalho1563]

Nice build man, what Atlas tree do you recommend to farms using this build?

[@K2Gaming_]

thanks! I am not sure it's the best tree for it, but I took all strongboxes, shrines, exarch altars, inc scarabs drops, effect of map mods for regular fast mapping. Can focus on something specific if you want, like harvest or ritual or anything else, it's good enough almost for anything

[@pawel17471]

Why do you use Jagged Technique ascendancy when you have Venopuncture/The Tempest Rising combo? Doesn't it have the same effect of making enemies count as moving?

[@tylerpickens1096]

Yes, use one or the other. Never both.

[@K2Gaming_]

yes, it's kind of overkill in most situations, I thought to take Weapon Master or War of Attrition instead. But on maps with 100% avoid ele ailments enemies cannot be chilled (or other sources of this immunity, like expeditions mods), so they will not count as moving. Anyway, War of Attrition that many people take works bad, it gives good bonus to dps only in very long boss fights, literally useless on maps. So Weapon master looks better imo, at least works always when life of mobs/bosses drops below 50%

[@pawel17471]

​@@K2Gaming_ thanks for answer, I didn't think about ailment avoidance, I will keep that in mind when mapping, but I'd rather take Weapon Master in that case

[@Dislukee]

Hello. This build feels very fun to play! Can you explain which map mods are bad to run?

[@K2Gaming_]

hi, thanks! only phys reflect is not doable (at least without changing pantheon and 1 ring or flask). Less recovery is bad if has high effect 85-90% less, reduced block is also very bad especially in combo with dmg mods. 80+ avoid bleeding is doable but annoying, need to hit some mobs few times. And as for almost any build - combo of 2-3 dmg mods is dangerous, minus max res, crits, extra dmg etc

[@Dislukee]

@@K2Gaming_ thank you for answering and sharing the build!

[@wights6365]

and ailment immune is a no go depends as well how you did your atlas

[@ivanandreev9571]

could you tell me how you deal with stuns? and what about using Immutable Force here?

[@K2Gaming_]

For stuns I have upgraded Brine king pantheon, with 5k life it's ok enough. You can add Immutable force if you want, but imo it's overkill, no need it

[@ivanandreev9571]

@ immutable force will increase block recovery significantly… could you tell me please why nowadays nobody stack block recovery? Especially on high block chance builds

[@K2Gaming_]

​@@ivanandreev9571 because with Brine King pantheon you will have 2 sec immune to stun after you have been stunned, so in worst case scenario it's 1 stun every 2 sec if you staying under heavy hits, and for bleed build it's not a problem at all, because we just need to apply 1 strong bleeding, dps will not drop if you miss few hits while stunned, as with crit builds for example especially if they also rely on leech, then it will be a problem. And once again, we have 5k life and not bad max hits taken, so it's not too easy to stun us. Ah, and I also have 80% stun and block recovery from my sulphur flask + 30% from brine king pantheon and 12% in gloves. POB says that stun duration is 0.17 sec, and then 2 sec of stun immunity, I guess it's not s big deal. At least it worked well for me, I didn't feel that I need to change something

[@ivanandreev9571]

@ yes, I got you. I mean not about stuns now, but about block recovery) As I remember in previous leagues gladiators stacked block recovery, because even with high block chance, block is “not working ” until block is not “recovered”. But now people don’t stack it for some reason

Hey there. Wondering why on the far left side of the passive tree in axe mastery that we are going with damage/ area while in blood/sand stance. Is there something in gear that gives that skill use im not seeing?

Hi, the only update I would make in future - mirrored axe or maybe even completely different setup of items with frenzy charges stacking, but it's very expensive project, I don't even have enough currency for that, doing slayer build now. Btw, in this setup Ashes (with 30% roll) gives 3.9% less dps than my amulet, also no life, less attributes, no capped chaos res, no aoe. I don't see the reason to change my amulet.

hey sorry for the stupid question but how do you get frenzy charg, what i do miss?

[@K2Gaming_]

from blood rage, on kill effect, but it doesn't work on bosses, so I didn't include frenzy into base dps calculations. As an option - can use frenzy of onslaught on bosses, hit few times - then use lacerate. But for mapping, blood rage is easy and enough

Maybe in future a leap slam focused build? instead of bleed. I would love it!

[@K2Gaming_]

Maybe, but it works just fine with bleeding. If make it 6L crit leap slam - it will be much lower dps than other melee skills that scale better, so I am not sure it's possible to get 20-40M DPS on leap slam with same tankiness, but I will try later in POB at least, just busy with my next build atm

[@aberges]

Any normal lacerate build is going to do enough damage through shield charging to pop white packs anyway

[@K2Gaming_]

for me leap slam of groundbreaking is much better than shield charge, big 360 degree aoe, higher dmg than shield charge (because I do not use high armour/eva shield), no need another movement like frostblink to jump over obstacles etc. And I can even kill rare and magic mobs with leap slam

[@Ortnok]

I have only 62% blocks, I don't understand what's wrong, I checked everything

[@K2Gaming_]

should be 65%, then in POB we need to enable "blocked recently" for that lucky block from ascendancy

Thanks for previous video build, i iam away poe for years 2016-17, so when i follow the build it didnt much powerful after i check everything, found that i miss the acendancy point. After 8 point been added, it become playable and enjoyable😂 And for this build my question is how much physical damage i search for not same tier as legendary weapon in previous build

[@K2Gaming_]

If you can't afford high dps (500+) reaver axe atm, then just use Jack The Axe with good roll, it's not much worse in terms of dmg, it's very cheap and gives a lot of life regen in battle. In this high budget POB - if I use Jack the Axe with close to max rolls, dps is 16.5M, still not bad, but few other items are also expensive

[@kjetilknyttnev3702]

Try out Shavronnes revelation in the left ring spot -solves all mana problems and gives you flat 250 energy shield. You can now run determination on top, and add Aegis Aurora with 100% shield defensive bonuses, and you have about 1500 energy shield that replenishes every time you block. This frees up a lot of options and skill points, and adds 70 intelligence as well, for item stats and minor passives for tattoos.

[@K2Gaming_]

First of all, I do not have any mana problems here because I use Blood Magic. in theory everything sounds cool, but did you test it on practice, or even just in POB? If we remove blood magic, then we can't use pride on eternal blessing alongside with normal mana reserved Determination and Vitality, need to use lower level Vitality and still need to invest in some mana reservation efficiency to run all 3 auras. Next, with those changes of ring and shield we actually don't have 1.5k ES, just 882, and if you ever played life/ES build with aegis aurora, you know that it has a big downside when it comes to dealing with chaos dmg (or big hits that remove all ES and some life too), zero ehp on block against chaos dmg, your life just drops while ES is full. Another thing, mana cost, you think that 40 flat mana regen will close all your mana needs, but no, total mana regen will be 53 per sec, while just Lacerate will spend 137 mana per sec, plus we need some mana for vulnerability, molten shell, enduring cry, leap slam. Adding lifetap to most links will require more jewel sockets and we don't have them, need to remove something useful. Overall, it can work, but I would not say it will be better than 5% life on block shield, EHP drops from 17M to 1.4M and need to fix problems with mana reservation and cost, and even need to get some ele res to have at least 10-20% over maximum to negate curses on maps.
