PoE 3.9 Mauarder Blade Vortex Chieftain Safe Build (PC,PS4,Xbox,Mobile)
We use Blade Vortex as it is a very strong skill that scales with our % Damage Increase and Chieftain Ascendancy nodes. With decent gear you should have over 20.000 Energy Shield, 1.5 Milion Shaper DPS from Blade Vortex, 2-4k Energy Shield regen per second!
Quick Jump
Pros & Cons
- + Cheap to start (No legacy gear required, can be done with cheap uniques)
- + Exceptional boss killer: Uber-elder in 2-3 minutes with just unique items
- + Extremely tanky with no currency investment
- + Not a stereotype type of a build (we play as 15k ES Marauder who stacks strength and spell damage)
- + Non-meta build -> low chance for a nerf (unlike cyclone and other melee skills)
- - Not SSF friendly due to Unique item requirements
- - Clear-speed could be better
- - Blade Vortex is not for everyone (you need to recast it every few seconds)
Skill Tree
Ascendancy
Tasalio, Cleansing Water -> Ngamahu, Flame's Advance -> Hinekora, Death's Fury -> Ramako, Sun's Light

Gems Setup
Chest (6 link)
Blade Vortex - Increased Area of Effect - Iron Will - Combustion - Unleash - Empower
Use Conc Effect for difficult boss fights for example Uber Elder
Weapon/Shield (3 links)
Clarity - Cast when Damage Taken - Immortal
Shield Charge - Faster Attacks - Fortify
Helmet/Boots/Gloves (4 links)
Righteous Fire - Efficacy - Swift Affliction - Elemental Focus
Note that I get, 30% more elemental damage from the helmet, as well as Level 20 Conc Effect and level 20 Burning Damage (If you don't like this approach you can skip using Vaal Righteous Fury)
Herald of Ash - Discipline - Enlighten - Anger
Cast When Damage Taken (level 1) - Wave of Conviction (level 1) - Curse on Hit (level 20) - Enfeeble/Flammability (Level 20)
When you are hit for more than 528 damage, Cast when Damage Taken will trigger Wave of Conviction (Aoe/Cone spell that applies -25% enemy fire res by itself) and triggers Curse on Hit setup with Enfeeble (I choose Enfeeble for Survi, you can replace it with Flammability for more damage). Remember that order matters! Cast on Damage taken needs to be in top left socket and Curse (Enfeeble or Flammability) needs to be in bottom left socket! otherwise this won't work properly.
