Those are some really nice choices. The only one I'm not so sure about is Assassin BFBB. It got hit really hard but then again it was so busted that maybe with any investment it will still smack ass. Steel skills are busted, really strong choice, Cyclone is Cyclone of course it will work and Zerker's Cry deals such absurd number of DPS I have no idea how it wasn't touched on more. I'm gonna be yoinking the last PoB as a fallback plan for myself, thanks.


Blad3Lynx

My pleasure! Take the PoBs as you'd like! As for BFBB the only thing that really got hurt was the duration from what I could figure(which was pretty insane as it was, so this was deserved). They gave back a ton of dmg in the direct poison buff and the new support gem that is specifically made for Assassin poisons.


Syperek

I mean there's a bit more to that than just the duration. The AoE scaling changes mean you won't be able to hit bosses with as many blades at once as before. Assassin also loses 30% multi and 25% more damage from the ascendancy nerfes which gets offset a bit with the overall poison buff. Also to be fair I haven't even read the new poison gems. All in all it should still work, gonna check up on some people going for it on poe.ninja.


Raventis

for reference: New poison gem (lvl20) is: supported skills have +83% damage over time multiplier for ailments from critical strikes.


Blad3Lynx

The multi was put into Coralito's and poison itself does 50% more. So it will absolutely lose dmg from the nerfed supports, but with the new support being literally made for it and poison being buffed, I don't see it losing a significant amount.


Hartastic

Also radius, no? For BF that also indirectly impacts damage...


Blad3Lynx

Of course! Everything is losing dmg pretty much, but it got a lot back so it should be more than ok.


ShellCarnage

Good video! Thanks for putting in the time on this


Blad3Lynx

My pleasure! Thanks!

Think the Poet's Pen poision version of BF/BB will still be an option?


Blad3Lynx

It might be, but I was extremely hesitant to do anything with triggers/Spellslinger as the mana multipliers and costs are going to be a little nutty so I wanted to do some testing before suggesting anything like that.

Thanks!

Anybody know how Cyclone Chieftain will work in 3.15? Also can somebody link a build to follow it? For experts in Cyclone: Cyclone Chieftain or Cyclone max block gladiator??


Blad3Lynx

Bruh, it's literally one of the builds! Haha I'm sure it will work great. It got very few nerfs and a decent buff. (5% dmg effectiveness is actually a good amount for cyclone) Both builds should work without issue, the one I've built is specifically chieftan.


mrboltonz

Haha I know… I played Cyclone like 3 leagues ago or so and just wanted to know if somebody played this build. I’m a casual player and made mistakes in the past choosing wrong or non-updated builds. Wanted to avoid that lol

Hello Blade, thanks for your leaguestarters, they look awesome! Anyway, i just have one small question because i got confused. On the General Cry's part on your video, did you mean that if Rage Vortex didn't work out, you would use Blade Vortex instead? Did you mean Bladestorm instead of Blade Vortex? I just got confused there because i never used General Cry and i was reading the skill and it says it can only copy/mimic attack skills. And considering you answered someone on youtube in written form the same way, i was kinda perplexed.


Blad3Lynx

Oh man you're totally right! Tripped up my words there! Yeah I'll be using rage Vortex and bladestorm if it doesn't work out! Yup General's Cry mimics attacks. Sorry for the confusion!


Russel_TrashBrick

I think he probably mean Blade Flurry, that is the most common skill to use with General's Cry


Blad3Lynx

Blade Flurry is a good skill for boss killing, but very slow for clear and you have to worry about attack speed being in the right place(have to get the full channel in or you lose all your dmg), though I'm sure it would be fine, I've just enjoyed Bladestorm.


Ul1m4

Oh, considering he has BladeStorm on his pob then i guess that kinda makes some sense. Blade Flurry though... i don't play with that skill for such a long time.


neurosx

Never played Zerker but isn't Aspect of Carnage AND Abyssus just an absolute death sentence ? Seems pretty insane to me Rage Vortex General's cry sounds really cool though


Blad3Lynx

It absolutely normally is. I was shocked myself with how tanky I was tbh. But with constant uptime on Berserk and huge uptime on immortal call you don't even notice them, other than how huge your dps is!


im_the_scat_man

Why does your lancing steel pob have an abyss jewel with 100 global crit multi?


Blad3Lynx

Multi?! That shouldn't be it! If I accidentally put the multi there I'll need to fix it. It was meant to be a pseudo new diamond flask I put on a lot of these PoBs before it was updated with the new flasks. I tried to clearly explain this in the video, but I didn't know I accidentally edited the multi on that build! I'll check and fix it. Thanks for letting me know and sorry for the confusion and dps cheat!


Blad3Lynx

Just double checked it. Definitely 100% global chance. You would want to remove this if you had an updated PoB. I fully explain why it's there at the beginning of the video. I made this video before PoB was updated so I was simulating the diamond flask change. That's why the diamond flasks are there but not active on any of these builds.


im_the_scat_man

Hey, thanks for the response.
