Hey, i am playing poe for first time and your videos have cleared so many things for me. The way you explain things is very clear and on point to people who started poe for first time. the progression has become lot more fun and easier. can you please make a video on the stash tabs that i am seeing in twitch from multiple streams and its kinda intimidating. Also how to organize tabs(a template might be good) and what to store in tabs for trading or anything? if possible can you also through your stash tabs ? like to see more videos on particularly the thinking process that goes on while doing campaign and endgame. Thank you so much

[@Buzzkill3r]

Nice work!

[@Chronikz]

Thank you Buzzkill3r!

[@ErrorNaime]

What would you change if you go Gemlings ? I'm also wondering if the herald nodes on the left are worth looking into !

[@woodotis1032]

Thanks for the clean vid as always.

[@Chronikz]

Thank you for tuning in!

[@lucascerresi9000]

Any tips for the gemling ascendancy?

[@TacoTuesdays69]

Thanks for thr vid. I'm leveling up a merc witchhunter and I'd prefer not to run a grenade build. Could you answer two questions: what's the earliest you could transition to this (I'm thinking a3 cruel due to spirit) and are the support gems in the planner from left to right in order of importance? Thank you.

[@RexZShadow]

Lowest is 45 for the unique helm but you need a food xbow but that kinda true for every xbow build.

[@Chronikz]

@@TacoTuesdays69 You can play the galvanic shard version very early then swap to the helm and this version as soon as you can equip the helm. But the best thing is following the maxroll leveling guide until you have and can equip the helmet.

[@johnwayne4911]

where are you getting the spirit from for these spirit gems?

[@Chronikz]

Spirit on Amulet.

[@bigkano]

Hi Chronikz ! One super question, can I do this on my gemling I am getting tired of throwing grenades and having to detonate them ! I would really appreciate your answer!

[@Chronikz]

Yes you can! You‘ll need to adjust the supports though.

Hmm, I might give explosive bolt a chance^^ Been using galvanic shards and shockburst, it has no issues with bosses at all - they're the easiest part of the game for me (lvl 72). Ironically my issues are single non-massive rares, as I currently use a modified glacial bolt to trigger shock instantly, but that does not work for non-massive mobs that move a lot. "massive" enemies trigger the ice walls from glacial bolt, which means you can get around 11 hits for 1 bolt(x3), all of which apply a fairly strong ailment chance and damage. The only issue I have are those fast rares that aren't massive, they run around or through the ice walls.

[@ВладимирСергушкин-х3ш]

hey bro! how can I get this herald thunder? internet said that I need uncut gem for it, but I can only can upgrade my skills there, not passives.

[@Chronikz]

@@ВладимирСергушкин-х3ш Uncut Spirit Gem.

[@MrEdmie]

Thanks for the vid! I'm desperately trying to change my grenadier build to something else. Do you think this build is as good with Gemlings as with Witchhunter?

[@Chronikz]

Yes. But you need to change the supports.

[@MrEdmie]

@@Chronikz thx, if you have a couple of minutes to share your suggestions on the support gems, would be amazing!

[@LeutnantArko]

hello is this viable while leveling? i mean like for starters in act 2-3 , or is it an endgame build?

[@Chronikz]

@@LeutnantArko Ideally use the maxroll Mercenary leveling build guide and then swap to this when you can equip the helm.

[@zackt6337]

Where do you get ice damage from? I am just wondering if I can skip the whole herald note and take all the critical build?

[@Smokey1911]

from the head

[@zackt6337]

@Smokey1911 what i meant was if his fire were to do shock, then how did his herald of fire trigger? Since it needs to be ignited

[@BoiCleancut]

​@@zackt6337 there is no herald of fire, only herald of ash. And herald of ash doesnt need to ignite, it does the igniting for you base on the Overkill damage. BUT because of the mask, instead of igniting, it shocks. ALSO Herald of lightning now builds up freeze instead of shock because of the mask.

[@zackt6337]

@BoiCleancut thank you. So in order for the three dragon to work at full potential, all 3 heralds is a must i guess

[@sqnb]

Thank you ;D for build, do you had a problem / bug / issue that you can shoot with your crossbow ? I can’t just use explosive shot or any shot ;c

[@theApeShow]

Explosive shot can be finicky. Needs to be loaded before it can fire. Sometimes it seems to load the rapid fire, fail, then load the explosive shot. Could try loading the bolt, using a grenade, then firing the shot. Few times I've changed gear for treasure hunting and didn't meet the min specs so the skill disappeared.

[@sqnb]

@ thank you 🙏

[@zackt6337]

why don't you take elemental equilibrum note? the fire damage will cause lightning exposure

[@Chronikz]

Doesn't work. You remove Lightning Exposure with Shockburst.

[@silvergrim2381]

Would this combo work going thru act 3?

[@raptorisking7668]

Is this a Endgame Build or why is not a Atlas Tree in ur Build ?

can u include the base attributes needed to make all this work pls

It depends on your gear. I dont know your gear.

[@SugarRoll]

Got my three dragons for 5 exalt and it took me an hour messaging like 100 players. There were 1 exalt posts but I never got a response from them.

[@BoiCleancut]

one thing to note, because of all the builds popping up on youtube that uses the Three Dragons Mask, its gotten so expensive now.

@ F.

[@skoriox6868]

Palsteron posted that exact build for Deadeye around a week ago. I dont know if this is just a case of convergent thinking and you didn´t know about the almost identical build for deadeye. It´d be great if you could clarify if you or Palsteron was the one who first came up with the build as it makes it easy for people to think you copied his build 1 to 1 and didn´t even give him any credit as he posted and developed this build for more than over a week already. Seems to be adapted to Witchhunter as the only skill different/added is Sorcery Ward. Niceto have a 2nd perspective. Gotta look if there are any changes in the Support gems he uses. Im playing it for deadeye right now and I can recommend its great with tailwind from the Deadeye ascendency and you just speed over the whole map and 1 shot everything.

[@Chronikz]

I talked to Palsteron about my approach and I'm glad he taught me a lot.It's definitely better on Deadeye but we can leave the Witchhunter bros hanging.

[@Huntington1988]

I was also running it almost indentical and im sure many others were too. Nobody cares who 'invented' it man chill out.

[@Chronikz]

Kinda weird to edit a comment and add a weird direction to it after I responded to it.

[@jersh9024]

​@@ChronikzThank you for this! I wantes to try it as Witch hunter and was going to try and stumble through it on my own, but this saved me!

[@Afterhours.101]

Palsteron did this first, his guide is on maxroll

[@Chronikz]

@@Afterhours.101 Yes! Ive talked to Pal recently and we will publish the Witchhunter version on maxroll too.

@Chronikz awesome, did his version yesterday, cleared cruel act 1-3 in 4hrs, its insane

[@welshmonsterhunter7028]

That helmet is pricey for fresh starters at the moment

[@Chronikz]

It literally costs 1ex. www.pathofexile.com/trade2/search/poe2/Standard/8eGav7qcV

[@spencers1485]

​​@@Chronikz no one is selling those for 1ex. If they are they are getting sniped. Prices will probably settle down eventually but they are closer to 1 div than 1 ex atm

[@Christian-hp3ph]

@@Chronikz As spencers mentioned, the 1ex you first see is misleading. It's more appropriate to scroll down a bit and look at what is the most common price. Learned this the hard way while trying to buy the Radiant Grief Lace Hood, I was confused why no one was responding to my whispers for the 1ex offers and noticed that the sellers kept increasing the price after a few minutes. Scrolled down a bit and saw that the common price was actually 1 div and not 1 ex.
