PATH OF EXILE 2 UPDATED WITCH BLOOD MAGE FREEZE BUILD DESTROYS T5 T8 - POE2 BEST WITCH BUILD GUIDE

[@jamesfinlayson95]

You can get more crit for less points by grabbing critical exploit and moment of truth wheels instead of spending 13 points travelling over to the melee side of the tree for the crit there. 85% crit chance, 15% crit damage and 25% crit damage if you've not crit in the last 4 seconds vs what you have now which is 75% crit and 20% reduced mana

[@Societiesdeadpoet]

would the sanguine diviner wand with the 25% mana cost as life for spells lessen the life loss and only make it do 25% of the spell cost instead of 100%?

[@xclusiveclown5333]

If you have increases in critical chance it functions based on how much critical chance the item has. If it starts at a base 5% and you get increases to critical chance to 100% from passives you will only get a 5% increase to critical chance for a total of 10%. Increases from stats on item function differently and change base chance If you get let us say for the example 5% increase it changes the base critical chance to 10%

[@Crazymrpipz]

true and u can just look at the skill and it will showu the increase when u turn the node on and off

[@PxstaBeats]

I just can't clear fast with this build i am really trying to make it work idk if its a skill issue or i am doing something wrong

[@mikoajnowak5734]

Why i cant socket unleash to cast on freeze with comet ?

[@jesusflores7323]

Imo you're spreading yourself too thin unnecessarily. For having FOUR comets in your build, the gameplay did not showcase it at all. either go coc or cof and use 2 copies of it. then respec your tree to focus on freeze build up OR crit. this jack of all trades approach is almost never worth it. And if you are going crit, extending down to get vulgar methods doesn't just cost you 10% less max mana, you also have to ask yourself if 75% inc crit chance is worth 20 POINTS. Unless you're pathing that way for other nodes I don't see how that could possibly be worth it. If anything pathing right to "Deadly Force" cluster is much more worth it.

im having trouble leveling up im 37 i feel like im not doing enough damage. on Act 3.

[@Societiesdeadpoet]

missed opportunity to call it the coldblooded build, how to counter blood loss from acendancy early game while leveling and putting this build together. maybe a leveling guide in the future?

[@NoxMedicant]

Nice build Pip, makes me wanna start the BM

[@agadhithegreat1339]

I really want to try this build, however, what's the best way to get to this point as far as abilities are concerned?

[@joeswosinski5220]

you can use almost any set of abilities to get to that point. i used summon skeleton arsonist, contagion, frostbolt, frost bomb and unearth as my main abilities until half way through act 2. then i swapped out contagion for frostbite, and im almost end of act 2. end of act 2 ill probably swap out arsonists and unearth for comet and ice wall + the proper support gems for them. any weapon/armor piece that has (+ to either summon or ice abilities) makes the game so much easier because the + (1-4) scales really hard unlike a lot of other things in POE1/2 hoope this helps :D

[@Societiesdeadpoet]

frost bolt cold snap spam with unleashed on bolt walk with the bolt while holding onto cold snap also have execute on cold snap

[@TheDamnCook]

When will builds for other classes come?

[@Crazymrpipz]

ill start soon! right now I got a insane blood mage build im working on :D literally destroys everything but im still cooking it so need some time!

[@robinorrben1850]

@@Crazymrpipz Just in time, i'm in the room to choose ascension. in hindsight, still Blood mage the right choice? i dont like minions.

[@Crazymrpipz]

@@robinorrben1850 I think blood mage is cool but in terms of POWER the other ascension might be better, that said if u dont like minions probably BM :)

[@xkiissx]

Seems cool! I'm trying it with my new character

[@Yuy978]

I use like 2 skills on my bloodmage build just got to T2, feel like im doing something wrong

[@xMaidinChina]

I really wanted blood mage to work with minions :( maybe if they come out with some more phys spells and buff blood mage to work a bit better with minions I’ll pick the acc up again (at lvl 46 on that acc) currently running monk at lvl 42

[@Crazymrpipz]

im working on something for that!!!

[@stormysurge9083]

Go detonate corpse with t3 gem that lets you sacrifice your own minions. Scales based on minion hp, have fun

[@EvgeniBel]

what are you actually get from blood mage? You can pick crits without all this blood orbs thing and have normal spell cost. Where is blood synergy in this build?

[@Crazymrpipz]

what? u get crit damage and double HP from orbs, thats what u get as u get through the ascenancy ull get increase in crit chance at a BASE LVL which is huge

[@EvgeniBel]

@@Crazymrpipz In the video itself you only say that it's fun.

[@medusa-_-5690]

Yo some one who got the same idea as me ❤

[@TheGeoNemesis]

naaa i play hexblast-crit and do my 10-15 maps and with only lvl 74

[@Crazymrpipz]

that ones sooo good
