[3.13] Power Siphon/Kinetic Blast Poison Assassin - Very fast and tanky poison wander

Finally crafted my wand...took like 20 ex, 10 ex alting for the poison mod with a workable suffix, 5 ex beast imprint + regal, and finished for 4 ex. Was hoping for flat phys on the regal but I couldnt reroll that t1 chaos.

Currently sitting at 7.2 mil dps though, so I will take it!

Damn that wand looks amazing.

Btw, for anyone interested, I was messing with cluster jewel setup and this is what I came up with:

https://pastebin.com/jmPL9Aq8

Basically its:
- 2x Feast of Flesh (small) (lgoh + life)
- 2x Haemorrhage (medium) (deeps)
- 2x Wasting Affliction (medium) (faster poisons, big qol)
- 1x Unspeakable Gifts + 1x Overwhelming Malice (large) (explody + unholy might)

btw for your tree I strongly suggest a thread of hope, like I have in my tree:

https://pastebin.com/SPvHNG4w

you literally save 10 points.

Even if that message was not aimed at me, that was a very good point. I'd give you a +1 if forums had that functionality.

That is very good spot, completely missed i, thanks. Allows us to also pick Soul Raker and Hunter's Gambit for some extra leech and even faster poisons.

Technically, faster poisons isn't really that good for us, as it means they will also expire faster and stack less.

But the chaos multi on the notable is good anyway, so I guess it's still worth it in the end.

Nah, they are very good because we can achieve ridiculous amount of increased poison duration. Faster poisons do not change overall DPS, but they reduce the ramp time by a lot what is very important with a lot of duration.

EDIT:

To give you an example how OP faster posions are. Lets say I set my poison stacks to maximum (131):

- With default tree, now my poison duration is 30 seconds, that means I have to attack boss for 30 seconds to reach my full DPS
- With cluster tree with ~60% faster poisons, my poison duration is 11 seconds

In both of those scenarios the DPS jumps to 24M, but with default tree and less amount of faster poisons ever raeching this number is very unrealistic.

Small build update:

- Added cluster jewel tree

This tree contains 2 huge cluster jewel clusters and 2 thread of hopes to minimize points spent. As mentioned above, this tree has *a lot* of faster poison sources, resulting in marginally higher damage burst.

For people abusing cluster jewels, you can use the above jewel + antivenom (small chaos cluster jewel) to double the number of poison stacks applied, which doubles ramp up time. It is also a cheap way to get a ton of chaos resists + corrupted blood immunity (not as cheap)

And to add on top of this, also amazingly fun way to run maps if you roll for poison sextant :d Basically HH levels of speed

I feel stupid, but how does that jewel double applied poison stacks?
