PoB: pobb.in/fpYwjv0WtVuW Huge shoutout to Peuget2, the grandfather of tonkiness: www.youtube.com/@Peuget2 And of course poe.ninja for allowing me to copy everyone's homework.

[@delko3741]

you sir got a sub. Great work, was getting tired as i though my Gladiator was not gonna finish to the endgame, but seeing this calmed me, nice work.

[@JosephGuerrero]

Great guide! Surprised you didnt have more videos with how quality this one was. subbed righr away to you man. Just got my trickster leveled up and starting to gear it now! Excited to implement some of this.

[@ShadowPoE]

@@JosephGuerrero Thank you for the kind words! I’m definitely planning on putting out more guides in the upcoming league.

[@imaqtkat]

Loving the guide!

[@ruanruanpotgieter4339]

Implementing this build as we speak, love it!

[@eliyar608]

This is the best build guide so far . This is my first Poe league and character. Started as Zizaran guide then felt squishy changed to Pueget was super tanky but lacking dmg . I tried to change some pob ninja builds I couldn’t work it out . Until I found you . Thanks for your build and I really think you deserve more viewers. And I’ll be your loyal subscriber from now on . Super detailed I understood everything. (Btw i lived in Den Haag for 8 years and i hold Dutch passport, could easily recognise your accent 😊). Please keep continuing these kind of builds . And I’ll follow everyone of them Dank je wel 👍

@@ShadowPoEis it possible to share your T17 or T16 regex ?

[@ShadowPoE]

​@@eliyar608 This is the T17 regex I use: "!rune|vola|efe|eche|wak|lier|ld f|wni|ur$|k at" Keep in mind I don't block meteor on flask usage due to mageblood, and elemental reflect is not blocked, so if not running awakened elemental damage with attacks (lvl 5) keep an eye out for that too. As for T16, I don't have the exact regex anymore but you can generate your own using poe.re things to look out for: Less defence, monsters block, you have no chance to block, monster crit and monsters can't be leeched from.

​@@eliyar608hi new player I am done playing this league, would you like some free items?

[@vicon8954]

I'm thinking about transitioning to this build from my Hexblast Trickster (CI version pretty much achieved). I was wondering why you didn't take es% tattoos, and how much better is this block version vs an pure ES version ? Thank you for you guide !

[@ShadowPoE]

The intelligence provides just as much energy shield as a %es tattoo, assuming you have specced in increased intelligence on tree and as corrupt implicit. By leaving those intelligence nodes intact we have more int, which translates into more evasion rating with the evasion and energy shield mastery. The non block based version (evasion based) would allow you to run something like an Atziri's reflection to deal more damage (due to curse effectiveness) and curse immunity. However, it will be less tanky, it's mostly a preference thing, both versions will work.

[@PavelBe860]

hey just quick question, why action speed on boots doesnt work? i see about half ppl using it half not... thx

[@ShadowPoE]

@@PavelBe860 If you have your action speed is at least 108 from trickster (One step ahead ascendency) it doesn’t do anything (unless you have other boosts elsewhere pushing your above 8%) I assume the people using action speed boots don’t have ‘One step ahead’ assigned.

[@yuriyvanov7587]

Can I use splitting steal instead of ls? ty.

[@ShadowPoE]

@@yuriyvanov7587 Yeah you could, though you might want to reconsider some of the support gems. poe ninja should give a good indication which ones would be best.

[@YFPO2D]

What’s up bro. Is there a way to link the gear so we can buy something similar.?

[@ShadowPoE]

You can find all the gear in the PoB if that's what you mean: pobb.in/fpYwjv0WtVuW

[@YFPO2D]

@@ShadowPoE thanks for the reply. I’m following the build now,Trying to get the gear together. Can you please tell me what cosmetics you are using for your build! Your client looks sick!

[@ShadowPoE]

@@YFPO2D I have bad news because most of the pieces are from the Voidborn Core supporter pack from 2023 and unavailable because of it. Armour: Helmet: Celestial emperor helmet Body: Voidborn body armour Gloves: Voidborn gloves Boots: Voidborn boots Back: Wormhole back attachment Weapon: Nightfall weapon (runebind weapon effect) Shield: Mage-Hunter's Energy Aegis Skills: Void Emperor Lightning Strike Stygian molten shell Nightfall Aura effect

[@TrilogySamm]

Is this build hc proof? I am only playing HC and can't seem to find alot of content for it

[@ShadowPoE]

@@TrilogySamm I would say so yes. However it’s definitely a build that needs a decent amount of investment. Personally this would be more like a second build for me.

[@shadrsabirov6412]

best build for hc if you already have the gear

[@TrilogySamm]

@@ShadowPoE alright man thanks for responding! Good content keep ik uppp

[@artemshitov8988]

how many divines need for builld ?

[@ShadowPoE]

I've invested well over 1000 divines into this build. But you can get started as low as 10 divines and upgrade from there. Noteable purchases: Voice of the storm Resolute technique ephemeral edge Well rolled Aegis aurora Double rage lethal pride The rest of the gear can be crafted very budget with the use of dense fossils, or if you are uncomfortable with crafting there is plenty of items available on the market. If you have any other questions do let me know. :)

[@G9_Freestyle]

hi bro. You can go TITANIC 4000 WISPS BLIGHT BOSSES ? you have VDO plz bro Ty.

[@ShadowPoE]

@@G9_Freestyle I’d say titanic whisped blight bosses are too tanky for a setup of 50m dps. This build focusses mainly on tankiness and comfort over maximum damage. You could scale this to very high dps with a doryani’s and a lot less focus on the defensive aspects. But at that point you are almost building a completely different build and I’d recommend penance brand or vaal ls slayer.

[@G9_Freestyle]

@@ShadowPoE Ty bro.

[@G9_Freestyle]

@@ShadowPoE I want to play build you.Can you test it for me, brother?

[@ShadowPoE]

@@G9_Freestyle I tested it on a T16 map and it's kind of sketchy, I did manage to complete it, but with some bad luck/rolls it can go very poorly. Would definitely want at least 100m dps I'd say, so like I mentioned a more dps oriented variation of this build.

[@G9_Freestyle]

@@ShadowPoE Ok ty bro.
