probably should be able to base a flame wall build off any old scorching ray more or less.

necro, elem, or templar.

elefocus, spiritural aid, divine judgement.
orb of storms to proc EE likely. with added cold damage to spells gear. dont make use of added fire damage to projectiles yourself. I would think EE would be more damage, then using spellslinger and power siphon/barrage, whatever.

probably not use spell cascade. let you cast walls in different locations, instead of 3 in one spot.

Can get real fancy with burning arrow, and ignite. just remember Burning is not ignite. Burning is not an ailment. Elementalist bacon of ruin for example, does NOT effect burning.
go herald of ash/golems if you go elementalist.

which actually, yeah. elementalist EE.. discord and elemancer.
herald of lit, ash, and ice. Ash does not ADD fire damage to spells. it "gains phys as fire". so orb of storms will deal ice and lit damage. While Ash will buff your burning damage greatly.

A triherald orb of storms ought to autobomb most trash as well.

super basic start. self cast. not even getting into uniques, or any thing.
may back this up with Holy flame totem+immolate. Insane added fire damage from flamewall, and immolate.

I really enjoued chieftan bladeblast. You can get mega fat if you want to and rock like 3k regen etc.

Not sure I'd use glancing blows again after the further nerfs, a staff for two 6-links might be more appealing now.

Can use glancing blows with a staff too though.

Think I'm just going with Alkaizer's Earthshatter build. Looks solid I didn't play with the new slam shit last league. May end up hating the extra amount of keys but we'll see.

Glancing blows actually feels pretty underwhelming when you can use a rumi and get to like 50% block/mitigation or mitigate 0,35 dmg * 75% block = 26,25...Unless you're a trickster with ES on block.

from 3k to 50k in queue i hope it was worth it

The patch is possibly not necessary though so I'm just gonna keep going like that see how it goes and if there's weird shit I can download it after, doesn't really make a difference.

Granted I'm at 19k anyway so doesn't really matter what I do. Hell I don't even know if I'll play more than a couple of hours either.

how shit is the league? I need to know before going to bed
Stay up for 3 more weeks and we'll let you know.

Going elemental Kitava's Thirst Bladefall/Bladeblast Inquisitor. Low end have to split cold/lightning, but high end I'll go full cold. Bit experimental, but didn't want to go Chieftan again. Chieftan is definitely incredibly solid though.

id settle for scam patch.

Please note: Patch 3.11.2 contained a broad restructure to Path of Exile's file system that necessitated a complete redownload of all game files. If you did not update the Path of Exile game client in the week prior to this release, this update will be very large. We suggest you begin the update process early.
oops.
