Path Of Exile 2 - Acolyte of Chayula MoM EB 85% Dodge! Monk Mapping Gameplay

[@CraftingBenchGames]

I’m running Mind Over Matter, Eldritch Battery, and 85% dodge, and it’s feeling pretty tanky so far! I haven’t reached higher-tier maps yet to truly test it, but it’s holding up well. For power charges, I’m using Lingering Illusion, which pretty much generates charges whenever I dodge roll. Personally, I find this much better than Combat Frenzy-it doesn’t require as many skill points or resources. I’d rather just spam dodge roll and get my power charges that way! The build is still in the early stages and missing a lot of damage (only a 4-link setup right now). I’ll post another video once I’ve made more progress and improved the build. Oh, and I’ve only completed two labs so far. (I hate sanctum lol)

[@ROFLWAFFLELAWL4]

I was using Lingering Illusion too but still just campaigning. Seemed to be very enemy specific with what could kill it fast enough to give me the Power charge. Is there a setup you've got that helps with that? Or is it just a matter of getting to later acts/maps that do enough damage? I was half thinking about Chaos Inoculation to reduce my health which in turn reduces the Lingering Illusion health for a much easier way to kill it but still not 100% sure (and need to invest from my current build if I want to try it out).

[@CraftingBenchGames]

​@@ROFLWAFFLELAWL4 Oh yes I just found some good gems to add to Lingering Illusion, use "Profuson" (50% chance to grant additional charge), and "Persistence" (40% MORE Skill effect duration) this tends to be pretty good. Also yeah in maps mobs will easily destroy the clone no problem. I was also thinking about going CI, but I found mana leech to suck. As I really wanted to use the instant leech node, with CI. I'm just going to use Chayula's gift node instead, for double chaos res + 10 max chaos res. You can easily cap 85% chaos res with this node. Also doing EB, you can convert all energy shield to mana + MoM. So energy shield = more life. You can pick up the node "Adverse Growth" its close to MoM. This node gives 20% of damage taken recouped as mana. Also!! Theres a very cheap unique item called "Midnight Braid" gives you 50% of damage taken recouped as mana! Then you can also get a recoup as mana mod on your amulet. Note MoM cuts mana recovery in half. so if you got like 100% recoup as mana, it will be like having 50% recoup if that makes sense. However still very strong! New updated video in the future I will show case this stuff. Anyways hope this helps with your build decision.

[@CraftingBenchGames]

Also going the non CI route it feels safer, cause you have like 2 health pools. Your huge mana pool will have to go to 0, before your life goes down. Gives you plenty of time to not die, unless you just get 1 shot lol

[@joyboone4060]

Bro how did u pump up your attack speed and movement speed?? I am searching for a way to do that

[@CraftingBenchGames]

​@@joyboone4060 I have 25% increased movement speed on my boots, and I am using the "Falcon Technique" node on the tree, which gives 1% attack speed per 15 dex. Also, the main skill I am using "Tempest Flurry" attacks pretty quick by itself. Oh and make sure your weapon you are using has fast attack speed. My staff has 1.64 Aps currently. Hope this helps. Good luck!

[@ProbablePrime]

This looks speedy and movement based, which is what I wanted. Its somewhat close to what im currently doing but of course has a completely different passive tree. I'm adding this to my favorites to take a look soon. !

[@abreuxiii]

i decided to respec into your build but im having a really hard time managing my mana. Any tip on how u manage it so well?

[@CraftingBenchGames]

Hi, yeah its very tough to manage mana. What's your current mana pool? Are you using "Mana Remnants" aura? You can also use "Midnight Braid" unique belt. It gives 50% of damage taken recouped as mana grab "Averse Growth" notable its close by to Mind over matter. This node gives you 20% of damage taken recouped as mana. Also link "Font of Mana" onto "Tempest bell" this will give 40% mana regen when next to tempest bell. Also having high dodge = less times being hit. Meaning you wont lose much mana. After all of this. I still think mana recovery needs a buff to be honest. But this should help I hope. Best of luck! If you have any questions let me know!

My English is a bit wrong because I use Google translator. Thank you for the detailed guide. Am I right in understanding that the Monk with the Acolyte subclass is interesting and viable?

[@CraftingBenchGames]

Acolyte of Chayula is viable. But, currently I think Invoker is a lot easier to play to be honest.

[@ВиталийМатвеев-я3ы]

Don't quit this subclass. Few people play through the Acolyte. don't be like everyone else! follow your line comrade!

[@CraftingBenchGames]

@@ВиталийМатвеев-я3ы 100% Agreed! This is one of the main reasons why I choose the Acolyte! I think in the future when there's more skill gems, the Acolyte will be very strong

[@newclearrage981]

what tier is the map in the video? i really wanna try out that build

[@CraftingBenchGames]

Hi, the maps shown in the video are only t5 maps. I haven't made it to higher tier maps yet to test (I will probably post another video when I get there). Best of luck!

[@littlelakelean]

@@CraftingBenchGames i'm on freeze flicker chonk t12 farm much faster hope i can transform it into freeze mom or kinda like that soon but nice job interesting build

[@noxticfire6423]

Build pls how to got power charge

[@CraftingBenchGames]

For power charges, I’m using Lingering Illusion aura. It leaves behind a clone of yourself when you dodge. It gives you power charge when enemy hits the "clone" you left behind when dodging. You can also use Killing Palm to generate power charges, but it can be annoying sometimes to use. Hope that helps!

[@STOP57oO]

is it good for boss fights ?

[@CraftingBenchGames]

I'm posting a video in the next hour with some boss fights. Yeah I would say its pretty good at boss fights. However, I haven't tested it at uber bosses yet. So far I feel the damage to be pretty good on bosses, you just have to dodge the big AOE slams. As evasion doesn't work on AOE attacks

[@CraftingBenchGames]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5rVf36OlJyYh7M New video, has some boss fights

[@wutais]

what type of damage do you have? is it lightning or mixed with chaos?

[@CraftingBenchGames]

Physical Damage converted to lightning damage. Then the ascendancy just gives you a bunch of chaos damage on top of all that damage. So its like a little Physical + lightning + chaos damage.

[@wutais]

@ how do you know if reality rending is procced? i have that but not sure if its deal chaos at all

[@CraftingBenchGames]

@@wutais That's a very good question. I don't really have an answer for it unfortunately. Anyways I am still using that node, as I think it does actually work. The problem is there's no buff, indicator, or anything visual that shows it proccing. Tooltip doesn't show an increase.

[@bloodlinezgaming4193]

@@wutais Thats true i was trying to find this but im also not sure but anyway i think there a chance to deal extra chaos damage so im just gonna keep it as it is..

[@Spezialbg]

How you have that much spirit

[@CraftingBenchGames]

You can get 100 spirit from the campaign. I think the bog witch gives you like +30 spirit. You have to check your map to see if there's bosses you haven't completed that give you rewards. I'm using "Solar Amulet" base. This has spirit on the implicit it goes from 10-15. You can see the amulet here 17:27 On my chest piece, I have spirit on it as well. +49 Spirit 17:29

[@Spezialbg]

@@CraftingBenchGames Thanks alot you are the best i was missing some from the campain ! cheers !

[@CraftingBenchGames]

@@Spezialbg No problem!!
