[Expedition] PoE 3.15 Mauarder Bladestorm Juggernaut Cheap Starter Build

 

How to Play the Build

Run around spamming your attack. Keep in mind Multistrike takes 3 attacks to reach max DPS, but don't stand around for too long.

Leap Slam can be linked to Culling Strike/Power Charge on Crit, so use your mobility to stay alive, kill low health mobs and gain Power Charges.

Leap can also be linked to Blood Magic, if you have mana issues.

If you want to run Precision, you will need "-mana cost" on jewellery (Replica Conqueror's Jewel + "-7 mana" on ring was enough in my testing). I did not use Precision in the Standard Test videos above.

Keep your Protector totem up for max DPS!

Pop Berserk + Dread Banner + Ancestral Protector + Vaal Ancestral Warchief when you want max DPS.

Use your Warding Life Flask after getting hit to remove Temporal curse and gain Max Rage from belt, then pop Berserk.

Pop Vaal Molten Shell for "ohh SHIT!!!" moments.

Swap Warding Life flask for Ignite/Poison for Conqueror's that require it.

[Expedition] PoE 3.15 Mauarder Molten Strike Easy Juggernaut Build

  • + VERY tanky: many layers of defense
  • + Lots of life: 9k without GG gear
  • + Lots of damage
  • + Can do all content
  • + Excellent lab runner
  • + Fast mapping
  • + Can start on a budget, a good league starter too
  • + Scales greatly with better gear
  • + No clunky mechanics
  • + Can do any map mod, rippy maps isnt a big deal anymore
  • - Not a "ZOOM ZOOM" character like deadeye TS\KB (but is it really a con? :P)
  • - Could get expensive if you try to min\max the build

 

Main SkillsMolten Strike - Multistrike - Combustion Ancestral Call

You get Immolate and Conc effect from the helmet's elder mods so they are automatically linked. For hard single targets swap Ancestral Call with Elemental Damage With Attacks.

Movement skillWhirling Blades - Faster Attacks Blood Magic

You can use fortify instead of BM.

AurasAnger- Blood and Sand - Herald of Ash - Enlighten

Enlighten gives us more room to breath with the mana, also its a great QOL in no mana regen maps. Anger and Herald of Ash gives more damage.

Vitality

since 3.12 vitality is a flat mana reservation gem so we keep it at level 1 just so we could use the vitality life recovery mod from watchers eye.

CWDTCast With Damage Taken - Immortal Call - Summon Lightning Golem - Wave of conviction

The totem wont proc with CWDT, just there for the attack speed boost on bosses.

DPS boostersBlood Rage Ancestral Protector

Gives attack speed and frenzy charges on kill for even more AS.

Poacher's Mark

this is our curse, you "mark" the enemies to apply it. Note that since 3.12 you can only "mark" one enemy at a time so make sure you are targeting the bosses and rare monsters to get the most out of it.

 

Pantheon: Solaris and Tukohama

Bandit: Kill All

Leveling

Not much to say here, normal leveling items: Tabula RasaGoldrimLochtonial CaressWanderlustThief's Torment

Use Thief's Torment as early as you can get it. This ring can also be your endgame ring if you manage the res and dex.

I used Molten Strike from level 1 with ancestral call. You want to link it with faster attacks and multistrike later on.

You can add ele dmg w\ atks and added fire damage to the setup. Damage is high right from the getgo.

For a weapon, try to get a fast attacking claw\sword: The PrincessIchimonji

when you get to lvl 68 you can equip Beltimber Blade. This is the closest to a grelwood while you are saving for the real deal.

[Expedition] PoE 3.15 Mauarder Impale Cyclone Berserker Fast Build

  • + Very fast clear speed
  • + Good boss damage
  • + mobility
  • + Stun immunity
  • - Not a spectre build
  • - Not a VD build
  • - Not a wander build
  • - Not a aura stacker
  • - not 25% culling strike due to berserker over slayer

What can you expect from this build? Baseline 20m dps with average gear. High end damage reaching 80-110m dps with rampage active. My current non-rampage damage is sitting at 122 million dps in Standard and 99 million in Ritual. 

Gems Setup

6L1: Dread Banner - Flesh and Stone - Pride - Blood And Sand - Precision(Rank10-12) - Enlighten Support

Explanation: This will be your main source of auras. Enlighten lvl 4 is required to get all 5 of these auras on due to high mana reservation cost.

6L2: Cyclone - Infused Channelling Support - Fortify Support - Awakened Brutality Support - Awakened Melee Physical Damage Support - Impale Support

Explanation: Main Cyclone link. none awakened versions of gems are fine. If you can not afford a 6L then cut brutality out until you can get a 6L.

4L1: Vaal Ancestral Warchief - Berserk - Empower Support - Maim Support

Explanation: Vaal Ancestral Warchief will give you a massive boost to damage for bossing. Same with Berserk. You will want to pop these on bosses only for the most part. Berserk will grant you movement speed, more damage, less damage taken and more attack speed at the cost of rage. Since we are taking certain accendency nodes, you want to only go bellow 25 rage sparingly because we don't want to get stunned. Maim is taken to give extra damage during bosses. Empower is not required and is something I put in to level a gem.

4L2: Second Wind Support - Blood Rage - Enduring Cry - Blood Magic Support

Explanation: Enduring Cry is married with blood magic and second wind to get two interactions. Second wind will reduce the cooldown of Enduring Cry by roughly 1.5 seconds. Blood Magic will allow us to use these enduring cry at the cost of health since we have such a limited mana pool. One common technique is to put Enduring Cry on your left click so it has a high uptime.

3L1: Leap Slam - Blood Magic Support - Faster Attacks Support

Explanation: Leap Slam is going to be your main mobility skill. Married with Faster Attacks and Blood Magic we can zip around the map with no mana required.

Marauder Chieftain

[Expedition] PoE 3.15 Mauarder Tectonic Slam Chieftain Tank Build

[Expedition] PoE 3.15 Mauarder Bladeblast Chieftain Starter Build

 

[Expedition] PoE 3.15 Mauarder Tectonic Slam Chieftain Tank Build

 

+ High Damage: 330M max slam and damage scalable with currency
+ Tanky: 90% phys reduction, 80% chaos res, 40% block, fortify, 15% dodge, 50% evasion during mapping, 1k+ life regen
+ Insane Clear Speed: clear the screen with one hit
+ Safe: long range damage makes it safer than other melee builds, you don't need to be near the boss to kill it, check out the simulacrum wave 20 video for illustration
+ Enjoyable Play Style: slam skill has very satisfying visual and sound effect

- Can't do Elem Reflect
- Not a Lazy Build
- May not be new player friendly, managing charges may be overwhelming

 

Gems Setup

This skill section only display end-game skills, refer to POB for other budget level's skill.

For information about alternate quality gems, please go to gear section.

Main skill setup

Tectonic Slam - Awakened melee physical damage - Awakened elem damage with attack - Fist of War - Pulverise - Fortify

Pulverise can give us a lot of damage boost on single slam attack. Fortify gives a good offence/defence balance

Aura setup

Enlighten - Anger - Blood and sand - Herald of Purity - Summon Skitterbot - Phase Run

We only need to run anger after getting a watcher's eye and reduced anger reservation amulet.

As for blood and sand, we can always use blood stance because we have enough AOE already.

skitterbot can chill and shock enemies, giving us great damage boost and defense. Works on both mapping and bosses.

we will manually triger phase run before hitting bosses. Remember not to use phase run during mapping because it will consume frenzy charges.

We only need 5L here because phase run does not need to be linked.

Second Wind setup

second wind - flame dash - intimidating cry - enduring cry

Flame dash is the best movement skill in mapping and boss fights. Intimidating cry and enduring cry can benefit a lot from second wind and give you good dps and good life regen

Totem and Golem

combustion support - vaal ancestral warchief - summon stone golem (or lightning/fire) - seismic cry

Totem and golem can distract enemies and give you good dps and life regen, linking them with combustion can decrease the enemy fire res too. Bottled faith's huge life regen area + smoke cloud can keep golem alive during mapping.

As for the choice of golem, it is more of personal preference. If you need more attack speed to clear faster in maps, then lightning golem. If you find golem dying often or do not have enough life regen, then stone golem. If you need more damage boost, then fire golem.

CWDT setup

CWDT(12) - Immortal Call (14) - Wave of Conviction(15) - Phase Run(or increased duration)

When you can gain endurance charge easily, Immortal Call can make you impossible to get one-shotted. I experimented many levels of CWDT and found that level 12 CWDT is the most comfortable level for all contents. Wave of conviction can lower enemie's fire res.

If you like to self-trigger Phase Run during mapping, then you can switch the phase run in CWDT for increased duration. Otherwise, I suggest the double phase run setup, one for self-casting in front of boss, the other one for protecting you in other situations.

 

Ascendancy: Valako -> Ngamahu -> Hinekora -> Tasalio

Pantheon: Solaris(before early end-game), Arakaali(starting early end-game) and Shakari

 

Bandit: Kill All

  • - super clearspeed requires explody chest but it’s totally fine without.
  • - Map mods: Elemental reflect is impossible => insta rip
  • - Like any other build the super endgame items need effort and currency
  • - You have to cast two spells, so the playstyle can feel abit clunky. but when you get use to it and have some castspeed gear its not bad.

 

Blade Blast 6-link

Controlled Destruction - Blade Blast -  <>Awakened Increased Area of Effect - Elemental Focus - <>Awakened Fire Penetration - <>Inspiration

If you have 4 blue, you could use Intensify .

Blade Fall

Blade Fall - Spell Cascade - Unleash - Combustion

+ the conc from helmet. 

A very big upgrade for this build is Awakened spell cascade. it allows you to drop 25 blades pr cast when your spamming since unleash is on cooldown. its like a 30% more damage doing most bosses, and also improves map clear alot. its expencive. but deffently a thing to aim for. i first got mine around half way thrue lvl 99, and regret i dident spend the currency earlyer.

Trigger weapon

Tempest Shield, Flammability - Wave of Conviction

IF you got curse on glove or ring you can maby use purifying flame for free concecrated ground. its regen and more crit chance.

Auras

Herald of Ash - Summon Skitterbots - Clarity

+ ASPECT of the spider(crafted) you can play around with the level of clarity needed, this is not a mandatory skill and can be ofset by good regen or -cost crafts, clarity is in the shield as a 1 link.

Mobility, utility 4 link

Enduring Cry - Flame Dash - Second Wind - Arcane Surge

Here we get both effect of second wind with to flamedash and enduring cry. Enduring cry is put on movement bottom so it auto triggers when you move around.

CWDT

Immortal Call - Cast when damage take

until you got your uber lab i suggest using steel skin.

If you can substain your mana without Clarity. You can now put increased duration on the setup Increased Duration
