Five practical witch builds in POE 3.5 that you don't know

1. PoE 3.5 Elementalist Builds For Thunder Punisher with Doryani's Fist

Ylfeban's Trickery provides shocking ground every time you will be hit, delivers lightning harm, curses NON-CURSED enemies using a random curse and has higher ES enhance. Since we're using Enfeeble in our 6-Linked defensive around the armour, the curse effect of Ylfeban will not do too much because it won't override your Enfeeble with an additional curse at random. It can usually trigger on targets which might be hit by your Herald of Thunder and/or Doryani's Touch.

Geofri's Sanctuary delivers medium level of resistances, relatively higher ES pool, Zealot's Oath that converts Life regen into ES regen, and provides additional ES primarily based on your Strength. This armor is often changed with an addition of one's option - a lot of people would use Carcass Jack due to the AoE boosts of both damage and region of impact radius, other folks would just use some higher stats armor. If you're applying higher stat armor right here, I will propose to prioritize Power Shield and attack speed as well as Lightning/Elemental Damage.

Esh's Visage is an essential item here - it provides comparatively high ES enhance, Life and the majority of all - the chaos harm does not bypass your ES. That is offered each of the time due to the fact you might rely mostly on ES, and your life will not go down bellow 35% for longer than 1-2 seconds, neither your mana will go bellow 35% because you're reserving much less than 50% of one's mana as well as your capabilities require insignificant quantity of mana. Therefore, you may constantly have this function readily available;

Doryani's Delusion - These boots have many mods, and if you're utilizing them, you'll want to get the ones with added lightning harm. These boots might be changed with other folks that would give superior stats of one's choice;

Doryani's Invitation - This belt will be the best item for the slot because it provides leech, harm and also a high boost of resistances. It really is also affordable.

Chayula's Presence. I know it's not inexpensive but this little point provides as well quite a few very good points to become avoided - initial, it offers immunity to stun. Possessing the truth that we use a talent that is ordinarily slow, Stun immunity can be an ought to. Second of all - it gives a pile of 60% chaos resistance which is quite extremely handy. Third and very crucial may be the conversion of life into ES. The good news is the fact that, due to the fact we're boosting the ES within this make, when this amulet converts 20% of your max life into ES, the ES bonuses apply for the converted amount of life, as a result you wind up with two and even three times far more (maybe much more) ES than the life converted.

The Pariah - this ring gives enhanced attack speed, and we will need it to become socketed having a blue gem, so we are able to get the 100 flat ES to enhance. The blue gem is perfect for our lightning golem which could be boosted with two levels, therefore, offering 10% enhanced attack speed also.

Le Heup of All - this one particular is normally hugely preferred among the players because it has too randomized mods and high rolls would end up the item getting pricey, but you will get it for like 20-30 chaos orbs and nonetheless to match its location into the creation. Its positive aspects are clear, but you are able to place a ring of your selection right here.

Doryani's Fist- No need to clarify I consider. Perhaps simply to add that possessing them because the key object of your creations, your attacks are thought of "Melee/Unarmed".

Pros & Cons:
+ Relatively Tanky

+ High damage

Pantheon:
Soul of Solaris as your Major God.
Since we clear trash very well as it already is, we want some extra defensive layers in a boss fight. Soul of Solaris gives us just the defensive tools we are looking for in a boss fight. We also have a chance to avoid area damage which is also a plus. Any of the captured souls are also beneficial to us and just provides us with extra layers of defense. You can see why this Major God would work so well in our favor.

Soul of Gruthkul as your Minor God.
Soul of Gruthkul will be your Minor God for this build. As mentioned earlier along with our Major God Solaris, we want to have more defensive layers because we are going to be maneuvering a lot. Soul of Gruthkul gives us 1% physical damage reduction when we take a hit up to a maximum of 5%. Though it might not seem like much, these small percentages could sometimes determine if you die in a hit or not. We have some other physical damage reduction already so having some extra physical damage reduction will never hurt. Capturing Erebix slows our enemies attack speed by 8% as well, further increasing the layers of our defense.
