[PATH OF EXILE | 3.25] - HERALD OF THUNDER - MY FAVOURITE WALKING SIMULATOR!

[@CBATOTHINKOFANAME1]

i have never seen him do that laser shit before where he chases after you hahahahaha

[@Calekoflight]

He spawned the pillar underneath his own feet making him move as he spun around...it was bullshit to be sure.

[@wsbe]

hillarious

[@titogeesoon]

HAHAHAHA WHAT THE FUCK? I've never seen Black Knight do the laser and walk! High level comedy with your reaction

[@akito4201]

the funny thing is, he always starts to say something and after that the game immediately starts trolling. so funny

[@Schlaechter789]

That boss ignored all the laws of science just to fuck your challenge up xD

[@Benvilledot]

Given this a go as I really needed to give my wrists a rest. Don't normally play a league this long but SoK has been so good. It's a very smooth build and highly satisfying....when it works. When it doesn't, you're going to die. A lot. Pros Just walking around and things melt Zero buttons to press Fast clear...sometimes Cons Random big phys slaps are going to put you down regularly. Jesus the budget. I'm 250div down and still don't have the corrupted chest and the bleeding corrupted ring. The quiver just doesn't exist. Sometimes it's just clunky. Full phase run is only full phase run if you press nothing, but you've got plague bearer to press. Plague bearer is good in big packs, but having no phase run in big packs = death. Counter intuitive design. The helmet is a huge cost with the mana efficiency and without it you aren't running arctic armour. Arctic armour on a build that never stands still? huh? The list of map mods you can't do is long; less recovery, reduced flask charges, no regen, avoid ailments, reduced resists, ele weakness etc. It's so stat starved on strength and you will seriously struggle without min-maxing clusters and paying even more. For a "walk around getting gold" build it's fine. I've come from a couple of builds (LS, Shockwave Totem) where I'm farming 8 mods in my sleep. This thing struggles with alch and go, and it's cost me 250div for a build designed just for alch and go. Is it bait? I don't think so, when the creator made it things were cheaper. Is it worth the cost now at this stage in the league? Struggling to say yes.

[@Benvilledot]

So I fiddled with this build a bit and have to say I've gotten it to a place I am now enjoying. 1 - ditch the double curse setup. Swap anoint to Vampirism for more survivability. Temp chains is nice and all but Vampirism is nicer. 2 - clusters. I swapped one of the mediums for a Megalomaniac that still has Lone Messenger and also Unspeakable Gifts. Who doesn't like screen wide purple pops right? 3 - secondary buffs. Move three points to pick up Herald reservation and exchange Arctic Armour for Petrified Blood. Pblood just goes so perfectly with Progen and all the recoup we have. 4 - change the bow setup. Borrowed this tech from 3.22 Magefist version of this build. CWDT crackling lance with overcharge, innervate and culling strike support. It just zaps across the screen constantly applying shocks and debuffs and culling for pops. 5 - other. I'm away from my game PC right now but I shuffled gems to get a stormbrand with overcharge support. Just tagging a boss with a brand is easier than trying to hit a shock with lightning arrow that only has 81% accuracy even after slotting in 20/21 accuracy support. It's still the most expensive alch and goer I've ever played, by a huge margin. Probably put well over 300d into it now. I am however using it for 5 div cloister farming to huge effect and it no longer dies.

[@Deadl007]

for bleed you can craft ruby flask with bleed immune, cheap and simple

​@@Benvilledotcan you share your pob?

@@Benvilledot sounds fun, got pob?

[@metaknight3335]

@@Benvilledot how did u get a megalomaniac with lone messenger and unspeakable gifts? isn't the only way to get lone messenger from calamitous visions? or are u saying you completely gave up a medium cluster to use megalomaniac? where did u put the gem that was in the medium cluster? or did u give up the blue dream? or did u path down to the outer rim for the socket? also i'd appreciate if you could elaborate on your changed gem setup. thanks

[@arroF]

used to watch the autobomber builds all the way back in 3.14, glad to see theyre still in the game

[@MrDeothor]

not many left and they are in very weakened state. This build here uses inflated numbers. It still has solid DPS for content it does, but it's DPS is much much lower.

[@blrwllm4357]

@@MrDeothor well just missing out on the +4 implicit on the chest is like 4-5Mil dps loss on an already ~15M pob dps. didnt really confirm exact numbers but just clicked a few things on his POB like just removing the +4 from his chest

[@nik_ms]

THE DUDE JUST FUCKING WALKED WITH THE LASER HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[@fredmiller906]

Man does this build take me back. I miss when builds like this could keep up with the rest of the meta. You made it look solid though! Loved the vid :)

[@SkillsBeyond]

Hahaha, the telebeaming at the boss! amazing moment XD

[@metaknight3335]

Do you have a pob for the final version? You said there was stuff missing such as mageblood etc.

[@The-Real-aPOC]

That mofo was not going to let you avoid the laser beam challenge, he would have chased you across Wraeclast and all the way to Kalguur to make sure you fail.

[@ross.neuberth]

This game is a challenge for regular people. The challenge for streamers is to break the spirits of the devs. Good luck sir.

[@brandoncarter2624]

Now the real question will be how much do all these items go up in price! 😂😂

[@Lakosius]

At least the Dendrobate Jacket isnt very rare , but the double corrupt with +4 skills is very spicy to get

​@@machettie86 Who cares about links , fusing are rly cheap , 2 divs in fusing+vaal and is linked or even cheaper , 5 link and tainted fusing

[@deccy1307]

Was watching u play this on stream while u were eating with the other hand lol made me want to play it ever since

[@distructed1878]

The Light of meaning is a good way to fix attributes imo, at least until the final stage of the build. You have 13 passive points on your top jewel slot radius, which mean 26 of each Attribute.

[@MorbidAnimosity]

Wait okay my biggest takeaway, i actually had no idea the shock effect poison interaction

[@krmunoz2169]

I modified this build to use Caspiro jewel so no requirements plus lightning coil/cloak of flames and it gets much much tankier. Also I use the perma life flask node and went crit based with perfect agony because why not. Damage ended similar but more consistently tanky.

[@fiquin2054]

Build is squishy bait. DO NOT BUILD

[@godlymikey]

i spent my life savings for this.... u cant rush in or u die very squishy i spent at least 2 mirrors for the whole build kinda ridiculous

[@Deadl007]

progenesis flask is mandatory

[@nigelmrweirdo]

His builds are always bad, I tried other build of his in other league and they were always high cost and squishy. Nice to watch, not fun to build

[@dado380]

If you have like me 90% of life recoup and at least 30% of damage taken as life this build is very good.I am currently lvl.97. Vampirism is crucial for herald of thunder build cuz 60% recoup is not enought,you need at least 85% and bleed,corrupt blood immune.I find it that I am better without petrified blood.

[@vegasrider7287]

Good recommendation on vampirism, it is still super squishy even with several hundred divines. Interesting and kind of fun but can also die instantly.

[@akromvaleth]

In my dreams, ppl will one day create a POB of a build like this, for less than ten gazillion mirrors...

[@JayM928]

I have that same dream

[@kensnyder7693]

If you're fine with being squishy, the classic elementalist version is a ton of fun. It's quite cheap to start and blast T16s with but it has issues scaling defensively.

[@jojojokokomo]

Do you have a recommendation for how to league start or transition into this from another league start? Seems fun to me

[@bestofhit]

cost of this build to be playable?

[@AchieveVibes]

Было бы круто еще посмотреть, тоже на забытую сборку, через грозовой переход. Которая супер быстрая, вроде как ты делал несколько лет назад. К тому же, сейчас есть очень интересные вещи, вроде ботинок, которые ускоряют перезарядку скилов передвижения.

[@kailanirhys6107]

I wanted to make a HOT build so bad. But I found it very difficult. Glad to see you could pull it off.

[@nicksmacro]

Giving this a solid go, question, to put my mind at ease... Progensis is the one and only thing keeping this build alive, right?

[@csac1979]

Two questions: First: You have 100 % spellsupression. Why not use the talent "suspressed damage cant inflict elemental alignments"? With this talent you are already immune to these alignments? Second: You could also play as Elemetalist with "hits always shock"??

[@MrDeothor]

Can you keep up Elemental overload? Can you get to 15 wither stacks and keep them up? it kind of looks like your DPS is inflated and set up "when planets align", while its usual dps is somewhere like half, at best.

[@arbornation8509]

do you have an updated version of this build with mageblood or other items

[@murray9535]

How many divs was this build? I understand that the market prices will be a bit different now though.

[@HeDidWhatNow]

is progenesis required at entry level or can we start it budget and work towards it? @mbXtreme

How is bloodnotch working ? You are not more likely to be stunned since they removed from the tree the stun threshold based on ES

[@mareksvejda2542]

[@Chronor007]

Do i see this right that you are not utilising the blue dream to get power charges at all? Not sure if i was missing something.

When he started chasing you with the laser I was crying lmfao wtf. Games be cheating at the worst times man.

[@aaronerror6819]

I'm running HoT autobomber on Champion and looking for help. Champion gives 25% life recovered anytime you gain Adrenaline; ward refresh got changed to 2 sec; Olroth's Charge gives Adrenaline for 3 sec; 33% slower ward recharge puts ward refresh right on 3 sec; that's my heal loop (and 100% damage + move speed). (Fortification helps too) Cane of Kulemak with +3 to support & lightning damage, HoT + Enhance = lots of triggers per second What would you suggest for AoE to clear out mob packs? I was thinking of dropping a ring and adding Call of the Void + HoI?

[@Asymat]

You can't gain adrenaline when you already have adrenaline. I might have missed something here?!

[@aaronerror6819]

@Asymat 3 sec adrenaline, 3 second ward refresh. Storm secret hits ~8 times a second with my build, which breaks ward. So every 3 seconds, adrenaline is reapplied and 25% life is recovered.

bit cheese to mark as stationary with artctic armour in pob, as a walking simulator. Yet I didn't see enough to say if you stand on bosses or not. Anyhow, 12-14k pHP is nowhere near "tanky".. or 8k w/o progen 🤡 pob champ... at this point don't mind me leaving 👎 cheers o7

Brilliant construction you made here man, I know you dig autobomber style builds, I been trying quite a few of them myself over the years. The last time I did an autobomber with HoT, I was using corrupted soul and dual leeching, to mitigate the dmg from the rings. But that is another way to build it, I like how you solved the self damage issue, seems more streamlined. When I grinded some more money, I might also look into autobomber, there was some runes I was looking at for it, I thought looked interesting.

[@nicksmacro]

Also, I don't think your bloodnotch is doing anything. You can't get the stun moved to the ES with out a different ring, and using that ring feels real shitty.
