Path of Exile 3.8 Blight League - The New Assassin Ascendancy (PoE 2019)

[@LiftingNerdBro]

No camera today guys, had a bad hair day. The assassin certainly looks appealing, right? Do any of these changes make you guys excited to try out the class in 3.8?

[@fatknacker46]

Unlike Mathil ;-)

[@Datharass]

Just shave brodeo. Never worry again :P

[@simonruitenburg]

wanted to play necro as start but venom gyre together with assassin is just too tempting to try out

[@Ashtarte3D]

So to clarify on Elusive they talked about it on Reddit (I'll go see if I can find the thread) but it starts at 100% effect and any increases to Elusive effect stack on top. So for that node you'll start at 125% effect with it running down like normal. I believe they said currently if you take all Elusive bonuses you can almost reach 200% effect which also doubles it's uptime since it needs to run down to zero unless you use Withering Step to activate its special version of Elusive which falls off instantly upon another action like Phase Run.

[@LiftingNerdBro]

Makes sense l, thanks for the info! :)

[@weertangel7231]

Great video! with this league some many new(and old) build ideas become possible and going assassin certainly seems fun to do :)

[@bastabey2652]

May all your days feel wholly glorious

[@swaziwazi]

I'm so excited I need a glory hole.

hi

[@Ventus_S]

Taking no extra dm from crit is HUGE in deep delve.

[@SophiesEarthquake]

The assassin looks like a great alternative for a fast map clearer with some further hidden potentials. Looking forward to start league with it.

[@FurrKnight]

awesome info and always well explained, thank you!

[@accountsuspended4284]

Finally. I'm actually excited to play the Assassin this coming league.

[@xyzqsrbo]

"looks like 128-130" while in the back ground it starts a new stack at 143% lmao.

[@Mattismen]

I think you misread opportunistics buffs as having the same trigger. The damage reduction is applied while there is MORE than one rare/unique.

[@karmoth6666]

Love your videos, more of it pls

[@reggaeonabike]

Very clear bro! What do you think about the new combat lash skill? I would love it to be strong!

[@donkatsu18]

Hey, man, nice video as always. I have a question: which one do you think is more effective for a poison stacking build, Opportunistic or Ambush? I’m not sure whether the 20%more damage against enemies on low life is worth it more than the constant 20% multiplier for bosses with Opportunistic.

[@iStacktheBacon]

LEAGUE STARTER VIDEO WHEN??? I'm starting to get anxious nerdbro

[@kamisori13]

Are you serious dude? Any youtuber/streamer thinks about starter builds and other meta only after a full patch notes comes out. With all changes and numbers.

[@iStacktheBacon]

[@jzmmm]

Hey LN BRO, what do you reckon is a good starter for the league? Last league I decided on ED by chance and it ended up being decent. Need something similar in potency (not necessarily play style)

[@ytwyrm]

LNB, from what I understand about the 2.0% crit chance increase from Toxic Delivery, it will apply to even attacks/effects that cannot normally crit. Like Heralds.

[@Pahgo442]

Nice video as allways lifting

[@phase911]

GLORY HOLE

[@Xirpzy]

Am I reading the patch notes right that combat focus now works with wild strike? Another build I have to play then.

[@EmoEmu]

How does one apply to join your guild? :)

[@ivodijkman137]

So... Spells now work with the Assassin? (Don't know if it already did, but especially in 3.7, everything changed really was only for attacks)

[@drt4527]

Spells always worked with assassin

[@ivodijkman137]

@@drt4527 Ah, right, thank you! :3

[@chaiandrew5284]

poison is base damage or damage from weapon?

[@corereject5796]

iam still not sure if i should take mistwalker first

[@Prosyri]

If you play poison.. Don't. Take toxic delivery first, then mistwalker at merc lab, just before starting maps

[@mule5832]

I believe the Assassin changes were good but not enough to challenge the PF ascendency for poison dominacy. Also the Raider changes were lackluster imo

[@Hazetheassassin]

prolly not but ass is now 100% better at bossing than pf

[@sjvan182]

Thinking about toxic rain assassin

[@ВикторКостов-м6о]

U must do the Quill rain poison assassin now U MUST . So far the damage was low but this new ascendancy is the thing for you master ! I belive u are the person who makes the best builds in poe

[@junk3996]

Mistwalker is not a strategic pick over something else. as a 2 point node, mistwalker is op as fuck and completely required for all assassin builds now, lol. it is insane.

[@frankmiller6212]
