POE 3.9, Freeing Pulse Hierophant Build Detailed Guide


INTRO:
Welcome to my Freezing Pulse Totem guide for the Hierophant in POE 3.9! This guide is at the moment becoming updated for patch 3.9 Metamorph & Conquerors of the Atlas. With 3.9, many of the changes to this build are going to be related to the changes in itemization that we simply don't have enough information about at the time of this writing, so most of the gear recommendations are speculative and very much subject to change. Expect quite a few more changes to this guide in the days following the launch of 3.9 as we learn much more about what kind of power gains are to be made from the new Conquerors influence item pools.

In Path of Exile, How many changes in 3.9? First, No passive tree changes, No changes to core skills or build items. Multimode nerf means it will be a bit harder to craft powerful weapons in the midgame range, but this isn't really specific to our build. Shaper and Elder getting removed from the main Atlas progression means we likely have significantly less access to Shaper influenced items; this mostly affects the opportunity cost of acquiring a +1 to maximum totems Shaper shield, but dual-wielding is a perfectly fine alternative for this build. Chill & Freeze calculation changes will make it even easier to chill and freeze all enemies compared to 3.8. Lots of new power level gain opportunities at endgame, particularly things like Awakened Curse on Hit or Awakened Cold Damage support and new influence pools for our rare item slots. New Freezing Pulse visuals.

Overall the build is looking in fantastic shape for Metamorph, so you shouldn't have any worries about picking up the build for this league compared to 3.8.
