PASSIVE SKILL TREE TOOL
--------------------------

So for the group (and maybe for myself) I'm thinking a shock witch would be fun.

Heavy investment in Shock damage, Crit chance, and Energy Shields.
Energy shields because I would move toward the Chaos Innoculation Keystone which makes me immune to Chaos damage, sets my HP to 1 and increases all energy shields by 50%.

Why would I want that? An energy shield regenerates very fast, no need for health pots so I can have more mana pots available, and items that have bonuses "when at full health" are constantly active.

For a group the minions are less valuable, and if anyone uses cold damage, many mobs will shatter making them useless to re-animate.

This is what I have so far.

I am debating two options.

Marauder:
Geared towards one handed mastery and shield mastery as well as armor. Gives me two options. Sword and shield for more damage absorption or go duel wield for more damage. Depends on the situation. Figure him to be the groupie as he can deal damage or take it. Not sure how DPS heavy our group will be or if a tank will be needed.
Group Love

Duelist:
Some shield help but more speed and avoidance plus blocking when duel wielding. He might be my solo guy.
Speedy Soloer

EDIT: May reverse that as the duelist is quite fragile. Soloing he goes down quite fast.

Something to think about and may need to be confirmed.. I know ..

:Fact: POisons and Bleeds ignore Energy Field and go right for the good stuff .. HPs ..

Now wether that translates from player to Mob from Mob to pLayer i dunno..

I think it would...

And another thing .. you will notice after playing a while ..its suttle .. and i think balanced well but you will notice that some mobs will use your exact tactics against you..

Something to consider .. to the left of the main Hub where you grabbed Fire/Resistx2 and Ele resist 6% all .. I think it would b worth a look to skip past that go down and back up grab the 40% mana regen then hit the Elemnetal damage hub , 31% incresed damage there and you will get 10% Ele resist anyway .. bUt you need to pick up a couple more points elsewhere to get that ..

31% is a lot of Damage... But overall a pretty interesting approach

From what I can see, Poisons are considered Chaos damage, and as such would be mitigated by the chaos immunity.
Bleeds would be in the same class I assume.

the 5 damage types in the game are Physical, Fire, Cold, Lightning, and Chaos.

Duelist can use a bow by the looks of the tree so I might see what I can do that way instead of the shield. So far I am liking the Marauder the best. Might just make two. One for solo and one for group.

Good call.
Pulled back on some things, like shock duration, the buff effects, and a lightning specific increase in favour of the overall elemental increase.

I'm assuming it's physical, but if it ignores energy shields now it's likely chaos as that's the only one of the 5 damage types that ignore energy shield.

Please note: for linking builds with the BBcode checkbox set in the tool, you have to remove the quotes from the URL.

Example:
Code: Select all
[url="http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAgMA"]Passive skill tree build[/url]


needs to be:
Code: Select all
[url=http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAgMA]Passive skill tree build[/url]
