Scion Ascendant Builds

POE 3.5 Scion Ascendant Starter Reave + DS + BF Build (PC,XBOX,PS4)- High DPS, Cheap, Tankly, Good Mapping Speed

This build doesn't need super high cost gear, and very good to starter for shaper kill. You can also easily do all contents but if you want to kill uber-elder very easily and need some currencies (not very much)

Gems Setup

There is Two choice. all good. just do what you want.

Important: If you use VDS on body armour with bloodlust.

You have to use totem and reave for bleeding enemy so that your DS could work properly.

IF you dont like this style,

1.use chance to bleed gem instead of bloodlust.

POE 3.5 Scion Ascendant Powerful Elemental Hit Build (PC,XBOX,PS4)- High DPS, Tankly, Endgame

In most of this guide, we tend to have a Softcore player complete all the content in the game with a single build, so this build prefers a single target rather than a cleanup speed.

Some features of this build are enough for the player to endgame: All Content Viable, Tanky, Resolute Technique. It also means that expensive budgets are not suitable for league starter. But if you are looking for a powerful build and it is still strong in Betrayal League, then this will be a good choice for you.

Gems Setup

Elemental Hit

Single Target:

Elemental Hit - Elemental Damage with Attacks - Combustion - Mirage Archer - Fire Penetration - Damage on Full Life

Clearing;

Elemental Hit - Elemental Damage with Attacks - Greater Multiple Projectiles - Combustion - Mirage Archer - Fire Penetration

If you are using Frostferno I like putting my Single Target:

Elemental Hit - Elemental Damage With Attacks - Mirage Archer - Combustion

NOTE: Cold to Fire is top priority if you aren't using Pyre Ring.

NOTE: Experiment with taking out Mirage Archer for Faster Attacks if it suits your playstyle more!

Auras

None! This is a Blood Magic build. Before picking up the keystone: Anger/Flammability-Blasphemy/Herald of Ash/Arctic Armor can all be considered.

Utility

Cast When Damage Taken – Blood Rage - Immortal Call – Vaal Cold Snap

• Don’t overlevel your gems. You need to keep these gems relatively low level because we want CWDT to proc at a lower life threshold. By keeping it low – it also limits what level of spell it can cast. 
• Vaal Cold Snap does double duty here. It will automatically cast the non-vaal version of Cold Snap when you get hit (which applies a chill). Remember applying different ailments allows Elemental Hit and Yoke of Suffering to give you More damage! The Vaal Cold Snap can gives you the chill on demand.

Blink Arrow - Faster Attacks

• Great mobility and gap crossing.

Lightning Golem

• Gives attack and movespeed if you can afford to get the links.
• Can be annoying to recast and keep up so try having a high level Cast When Damage Taken. Culling Strike, Blind, and/or Increased Item Rarity are good ways to get more value from your golem.

Decoy Totem

• A great utility totem which helps for bosses.

Other Nice to Haves

Vaal Grace

• Some extra survivability for bosses.

Vaal Haste

• For all the speed demons.

With any of these Vaal Skills consider linking to Increased Duration!

Quality Priority

 

Elemental Hit > Damage Supports (All give .5% increase) > Attack Speed Supports (GMP)
