Path of Exile - 3.8 Blight Ready Build Outlines - Trickster Fireball Ignite (Non-Crit)
46Buffs to Ignite for 3.8 have been largely ignored by the PoE community.
Here's my attempt to rectify this! Set your enemies on fire, then burn the ashes.
Changes it benefits from:
There were changes made to global gem levels. +5 to all fire skills staves, +2 wands/daggers/scepters added.
Burning damage gained a new stat. Fire damage over time multiplier.
VAAL FIREBALL STILL STRONG
Those were big power increases. But it's not all great. Mana changes will hurt. MANA FLASK MANDATORY so minus 1 flask.
Ascendancy
- Swift killer - good value node. No super strong interactions but it just does a lot.
- Patient Reaper, Prolonged Pain - DOT specialist nodes
- Ghost Dance - Solid defence if not being constantly hit.
MANA RESERVATIONS:
Malevolence.
Also consider Clarity, depending upon your mana needs, and any aura you have a strong Watcher's Eye for (as/when those become available).
SKILL GEMS
Use six of the following:
Vaal Fireball - Combustion - Burning Damage - Ignite Prolif - Deadly Ailments - Unbound Ailments - Greater Multiple Projectiles.
While levelling, start with Fireball - Lesser Multiple Projectiles and add the other skills as and when able.
Gearing tips:
- Try to get a Tabula Rasa as soon as practical.
- Upgrade to a Skin of the Loyal with a single good corruption when these become available in your league.
- Ultimately look to get a 6L Shaper chest with good caster stats, or a Skin of the Loyal with 2 perfect corruptions.
- Before crafting endgame rare items look on Reddit for any new item mods that have been found. These might impact your crafts!
- Work towards Opal rings with fire damage modifiers. Until then, use life and/or resist ones.
- Work toward a belt with lots of fire and/or ailment damage. Until then, life/resists.
- Boots: Movespeed/life/resists
- Weapons: Prioritize the new global +gem level mods.
