PoE 2 | GIANT'S BLOOD EXPLODING WARCRIES WARBRINGER - Path of Exile 2 Build Concept Showcase

[@Alliee]

DISCLAIMER - Please remember this is a BUILD CONCEPT. We have no way to know what will be good or bad in PoE2 until we get to play it. This is simply a showcase of a possible build that has a lot of concepts that come to gather and seem to synergize well. To add to this, I am 100000% sure that this build is bound to have more skill gems that are just a no-brainer to add in that can make it even stronger that we don't know about yet. We have a very small window into the skill gems available currently.

[@kylebuschmann]

During the la showcase they mused past a node that was warcrt damage and it was on a small node so I assume they hope we may be able to run the screamer build from d2 seems like a cool buil I'll probably roll titan slam to start but maybe when I see the tree in full I'll say f it and play a warcry spammer. I can just see infernal cry once or just spamming it for screen clear

[@MightyMouthDFT]

Okay newbie here , but let's say you use armor breaker, and you use brutality. tho it says the skill can deal no elemental damage, could you use armor explosion. So when you full break armor it converts all physical damage into fire damage. Would it work? Because it says it can't deal elemental but armor explosion says it converts physical to fire. These are the things I need to know

[@kylebuschmann]

@MightyMouthDFT brutality makes it so you can do no elemental damage so it takes it completely out of the calculation. That's because it is supporting the same skill so if you want explosions drop brutality. This would be different if you have explosions from another source brutality just makes that skill unable to do it cause it has an elemental tag. Can't tell if they have changed the way they calculate things so you may check if it works cause it's a support-support problem you'd have to test it yourself.

[@MightyMouthDFT]

@kylebuschmann yeah I figured it couldn't work but it says it converts it to fire so I didn't know if it was somehow a loop hole I'm just a Poe newbie asking probably seemingly self explanatory questions but the wording is it converts all physical into fire and the skill can ONLY do physical so I was curious if somehow it would calculate all the physical damage then convert it to fire but probably not

[@Dayudocama]

Screams so loud enemies bleed out to death and explode

[@MrHighRaw]

Sounds like my wife.

[@Max655]

Thank you for the great info as an excited POE2 noobie ready to dive in! Look forward to more videos !

[@chriscrawford567]

Corrupting blood does not state that it stacks like in Poe1, it will most likely be a single dot

[@xzilla]

It stacks

[@kream5429]

Yes! Thank you for this information!

[@TheChemixer]

This is great. I knew I wanted to try a war cry build as my first or second one, but had no idea what I would use for single target dmg.

[@AmayaPvP]

Nice build/concept as always. I'll probably playing end up playing merch, since it looks fast paced and the crossbow is a really nice and versatile addition to the game.

[@Reezico]

im between monk, mercenary, chronamancer. i know if i play ranger, imma not want to play another class haha

[@stillprophet7529]

10:30 Execute supports says hit damage only sadly and that rage warcry support also doesnt apply to the warcry damage itself

[@barryz7819]

I was trying to follow something similar, but when I went to buy the Giant Blood, it said I didn't meet the requirements. Could you help me figure out if I missed something or if it's a bug? Thank you!

[@Alliee]

Im not sure what you mean by buying glants blood. I assume you mean allocating it on the passive tree, if so, giants blood sadly was nerfed before ea started to require 3x the attributes now making a 100 str mace require 300 str to equip now. It might just be a case that you didnt have enough strength when you tried to pick it up and it disabled your weapon.

[@pathwaystoadventure]

Do we know if Taunt works on Bosses? If so this build would be even better for multiplayer groups! I'd love to be able to run this as a good clear build with "meh" boss potential if my teammates can run better boss-crusher builds while I take care of the boss's attention.

[@Alliee]

Taunt in poe1 unfortunately did not do anyhting on pinnacle bosses. I would expect it wount in poe2 as a lot of mechanics are being ported over 1:1 but, as weve seen with the life mana and es changes, some thigns are changing and we cant really know.

[@squidmysterm]

Like most poe2 builds i feel theres hope, but then i ALWAYS find something that kills it. I wanted to do this as a gemling and super stack strength.....then i noticed they had to add "inherent bonuses" instead of just flat stat bonus. So all the scaling of strength i wanted to do got nuked. I want to make this work so bad bc i love the concept. but the dmg seems soooo bad. Might as well just play a slammer bc thats what your really gunna be doing anyway

[@thuc753951]

Great vid

[@zachdressing]

About Vaal Pact, what about Charms being there? You cant use the Life Flask but the Charms Should to prevent status effects and give buffs?

[@Alliee]

I would assume you can use charms still yeah, pretty much every build will want to use their charm slots but outside of "they can clense ailments" we know so little about them that its hard to say more. One stat we saw was life on use so there will be more than just charges gained/used but its too early to give any recommendations.

[@oxenham7560]

is it possible to get the 2 extra curses in the tree for the blasphemy set up?

[@Alliee]

Well, given that we now know that Whispers of Doom is a keystone and cannot be anointed, the best we can do is 1 curse which can then either manually casted or linked to a blapshemy to be automated

[@MetalMMagic]

Blasphemy has no Meta tag so you can probably just link one curse to it...

[@Gingr_Beard]

You can only use this support on a single warcry though yeah? You can't use the same support on different skills which will prevent it from working on "all of our warcries". Not sure this will impact the build at all, but slightly misleading statement in the intro if someone wasn't aware of that limitation.

[@Alliee]

That is a fair point, I coudve worded that better to "makes all uses of the linked warcry." But yes, you can only use it on 1 warcry at a time, thank you for correcting me, I didnt catch that and it flew past my head when I said it.

[@doombybbr]

@@Alliee Also of note, you actually do not want your warcry to inflict bleed because of its very low base damage, it is probably better to pick a warcry that boosts supercharged slam/hammer of the gods then to go for its initial damage(or even pick a warcry for some other kind of utility). I would even go so far as to mention that there would be skills such as lacerate that would have inbuild bleed scaling(and slams may not be a good choice). You probably want to use the other 4 warcry support slots specifically to scale the currupted blood damage as high as it would go instead of trying to add bleed as well.

[@volatile1595]

@@doombybbr i dont know how poe 2 will do it, but in poe 1 only the highest damaging bleed does damage. This means that using a warcry that can deal damage can be supported by damage based support gems. In case it inflicts bleed you can just over write it with a better bleed

[@g_od2080]

was thinking dual wield two handed titan build

[@johanna1153]

Yeah!

[@DCUOCover]

Im going to play an Armour Breaker setup with Sunder Crit bonus build. Sunder consumes the fully broken armour to guarantee a crit. I was thinking if I could get the armour break attack to attack relatively fast with also using the support increased armour break for 80% and splinter support which breaks armour equal to 15% of Phys damage I could break armour very quickly all the time always benefiting from the guaranteed crit. There's also the exploit weakness support which also consumes broken armour to deal 50% more damage which I would use with sunder. now im not very sure how the break armour mechanic works so will need to wait it out, fuk i dont even wtf im talking about 🤣

[@MetalMMagic]

I was thinking very similar but I don't think you can use exploit weakness and sunder together since they both "consume" the status. My biggest worries lie in attack rating... You have a way to solve it?

[@DCUOCover]

@@MetalMMagic Yeah we will have to see how the interaction works. Im sure we can solve accuracy on the tree somewhere.

[@jax6950]

Never played PoE before do you have anything explaining half of what you said in the video. Lol

[@Alliee]

I am currently working on a very extensive beginners guide that I hope to have out in a few days! I realized that there will 100% be a lot of new players looking to try out poe that will definetly benefit from having a lot of concepts explained to them.

[@Euduchaus]

​@@Alliee As a new player I'm looking forward for that! Thank you.

[@linemat7887]

There are no guides to poe2 afaik, cuz noone could actually play it. Connerconverse has a vid with sort of clarifications/disclaimers on poe concepts

[@mikeshinoda-e4f]

i hate the slow ass 2hand shield and warbringer is what i been looking at too
