can someone tell me which fossils im meant to use to craft those claws? i cant find it in the thread

I’m a relative newb to high level crafting but I will tell you what I did. Used perfect fossil to get a level 84 Gemini claw to 30% quality. Then scrub it and use corroded, metallic and aberrant fossils.

Once you get a claw that has the double dmg and chaos dmg mods, then you need to be able to fit the “can’t change prefixes" mod on there. If there are already 6 mods on there, or 3 suffix mods, you will need to annul a mod off first before you can fit the "can't change prefixes" mod. Hopefully you don;t brick the claw at this point.

Once you get the "can't change prefixes mod" on there, then scrub it and you will be left with just the double damage mod, the chaos damage mod and maybe one more prefix mod. If you have the extra prefix mod on there, you will need to annul it off, so there is another good chance you brick the claw at this point. If you successfully, annul the third prefix mod off, then proceed to multicraft.


I’ll tell you I probably had to do part or all of this process 30-40 times in order to get the double damage and chaos mod and have them both survive the annuling steps. Maybe there is a better way, but that is what I did.

Going with just the double damage mod and then multicrafting +phys damage is way way easier and an order of magnitude cheaper though. And to be honest, with the PoB being so screwy for poison, I’m not even sure if the +chaos dmg mod even yields more dps, although in theory it probably should. That being said, I went off of other peoples analysis and crafted my own +chaos damage Gemini claw. :)

Hello guys,

I see a lot of questions in this thread and a lot of people asking what to do and so on.. it would take too much time to answer every question, but I stream this build almost daily at:

and I gladly answer all the questions I can :)

For all those wondering, who I am - I am the first guy who had Uber Elder down with this build and uploaded some videos on this thread.

Cheers!

Hi, what is the best mod to craft on those claws?

% increased physical damage is probably the best one

Whats gems are you using for bosses?

I haven't switched any of the recommended gems out for bosses and just did Hydra and Phoenix no problem last night. There is no downside to using GMP since we aren't worried about the projectile damage penalty at all and each hit adds a poison and if you are using a claw, LGoH. The spread of projectiles also helps with targeting obviously.

Plague Bearer is the MVP for Bosses.

Hi, what is the best mod to craft on those claws?

I'm getting the most dps in PoB out of claws with

add x to x phys damage
% increased physical damage
% increased attack speed

only problem is chaos damage multiplier doesnt work in PoB so im not sure how good that one is.

Best weapon route for Standard Blight? Just looking to kill some low key bosses, get into red maps for a bit to try the new poison builds.

Claw+shield or dagger+dagger? I really don't feel like doing large respecs since I have to do that on another character and need all my regrets.

Recently change from poison Cobra Slash/ Venom Gyre to Pestilent Strike and find way more success using it as poison Claw Assassin.
Much better clear/ Blight encounter with 100% win rate ever since the swap. (All in t14~16 maps)

Video Demonstration: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=31JNDYRG9rc&feature=youtu.be
(Forgot to show the map, but it's t15 Cove with 80% qii.)



This setup use the exact same setup as the Cobra Slash/ Venom Gyre set up, but with much smoother clear than both of those skills. All you need to do is swap out 3 gems, using Pestilent Strike, Ancestral Call, and Melee Splash.

This build function like a melee ED Contagion/ Melee Worb.
The AOE from Pestilent Strike do seem to "shotgun" the whole packs when using Ancestral Call + Melee Splash, much like how Worb works.
This result into a more deadly poison proliferation effect.
The bigger the packs the higher this build damage becomes.
Even blight unique melt in 2~5 seconds IF there're packs around it.

Amazing clear, amazing Blight clearer. (So far I haven't fail a single blight in red maps ever since I swap to Pestilent Strike. It literally melt every packs no matter their size). In addition it has better synergy with Plague Bearer because of the melee zoom zoom nature.

However, this build requires you to swap out 3 gems when facing real challenging end game single target boss like Shaper Guardians . You need to swap to Viper Strike, Multistrike, and Fortify to feel smooth fighting those.

Also this build is still a melee so it's more risky playing it. Good thing is 75% dodge, blind and 50% evasion do trivialize most mapping encounters.

POB code: https://pastebin.com/V36XrRat

PS: My gears are far from optimized yet.
No dps on rings, very meh Amulet, no good glove like Fenemus, and only using medium tier weapons. (1 ex worth) With lv21 Pestilent Strike and better gears the build should be even smoother/ stronger.

OK I lied. I put blood rage back in, but I took the Growth and Decay nodes, which gives you 2% regen. That plus 1% from Heart of Oak and 0.5% from Resourcefulness gives you 3.5% regen, which makes it so you are barely losing health between packs.

That being said, because I am a bit OCD, I think I am going to try and get 1% regen on my helmet.
