Hey everybody, Ron right here, and today's video is a little unusual. Are you tired of dying and keep losing experience in maps? Bosses take ages to kill, your bleed doesn't bleed? Well, let's fix it. I have looked at more than 100 path buildings of different people this league, and it fixing your build stream as well. So in this video, I want to address the most glaring issues and the most common mistakes people make when doing leaguest and some other builds in general. This video will mostly contain a compilation of fixes I addressed while looking at your pubes during PEB fixing streams. Check the timestamps for particular things to improve, and let's go. Let me showcase, guys, that's a very common mistake. You have two flasks in there, so Granite flask and Quartz flask, but both of them have increased armor during effect. Those bonuses can stack, so only one of them is working. If you have 52 like increased armor during effect, you don't need a second flask with the same bonus. You can pretty

much piig flask with a bonus like reduce Cur effects, for example, and that's a very good idea because a lot of people are picking flask with the same bonuses. So, first off, when you pick a large cluster jewel, it's very important to make sure that each cluster jewel is kind of working for you. So, it's not for different weapons that you're kind of using. You need one for excess or for attack damage. You have one for stuff here. It's not good, and you should keep it in mind. So, you will probably need to reck it up. There's also a pretty common situation, guys, when you are picking the ring flags up. You need to click it with blast orbs to change the implicit. So, you have 23% of implicit right here, but if you click with blast or that cost nothing right now, it will be so easy to reach 30. It could be much better for you to balance your resistances for such cases, so keep that in mind. In some situation, guys, people are picking Mastery like life Mastery, but right now

life Mastery is giving you only 70 life. If instead of life master here, you would pick any random point for life, like here you receive 112 total life, so that's about 40 life more. So instead of spending Point here, you can just drop it, and you can just pick life here, and you will have more lives that way. It's almost always better to pick a 6% Point than going for life master right now because life Mastery been n. So guys, another cool trick. So right here, you have allocated proficiency. You need a little more dexterity. Your dexterity is 113, and you need 16, right? So you spend a point and allocate proficiency. But there's another option for you. Instead of allocating proficiency, you can save that point by just checking replica budge Brotherhood and clicking it with pretty much catalysts for attributes. So Catalyst for attributes is going to give you enough attributes so you will compensate the three. So for example, if you will create new replica badge browser code, if you'll just create new replica, and we will P

catalysts look for attributes, and we will click it. As you can see, it will give you four dexterity. So for dexterity, it's pretty much enough for you to reach your cap. For dexterity, it's perfectly enough, so you will be able to save that point, and you don't need proficiency anymore. Just click your replic with attribute catalysts, and it's going to be enough. So guys, another pretty cool bonus. If you are using steel skin and you have a lot of armor, like 20K or 30K, you can go for molon shell and stad. So molon shell is going to provide you better super ability than the steel skin, as you can see. And in some situations, molon shell could be better. Another cool part is that molon shell has better duration. So the duration of molon shell is like 3 seconds, and steel skin is only 1.5 seconds. So the only cool part that steel skin can provide us is immunity to bleeding. Otherwise, molon shell fails better. I definitely recommend to use it if you

have a lot of armor here, so it could work better than the Ste skin if you're going for an unwavering stance for Mana build or for blood mag build. Always pick the socket because you only need two points, and you can get pretty cool bonuses from the socket itself, so it's always recommended to go for the socket. And if you don't have it, it's a mistake most of the time. You need to pick it. So, one of the most common mistakes that I see in L right builds when you don't have spell block chance C. There are two options. There are two options to pretty much cap it. You can take a Mastery, so just like one% to chance to block attack damage, and it's going to cap you so 65. Or you can just simply use a tattoo. And tattoo is pretty much cap you in two tattoos. You can save a point and just use double tattoos to pretty much C your block here. But it's a very important part because it's very important to cap your block like that, so try to use

status or use that Mastery if you are not capped in that part. So here in your build, you're using vanquisher already, but you're not using the mastery. The Mastery is pretty cool; it can give you 10% of DPS per only one point if you will be able to roll high as bleed. So, it's very important to just pick the Mastery. So, if you are playing that like a vanquisher, you definitely need to pick the Mastery. Make sure the Mastery is picked because it's a huge step for the belt. You can also need to anoint it. For example, right here, you have an amulet, and you don't have a single annoy on it. So, you can just go and for ler build, for example, you can just take V blade for Amber Veron and indigo. That's a very cheap annoy, and you can pretty much do that for like a few KES, but you'll get a cool bonus and about 7% of additional DPS on your amet that way. So, please anoint your amulet as fast as possible.

because it's a way to get more DPS for free. And even if you're playing different builds, that always on the three cool bonuses like that. They don't require a lot. Like if you're a physical build, you can take like Bone Breaker, for example, Sep Te Indigo. It's so simple and it's basically free. And for Less rate like weak blade at the start is feeling pretty all right. So guys, if you're running like recoil, you can just click it with attack Catalyst. And that's a very cool bonus. It's going to raise the amount of more maximum physical attack damage that you're receiving and going to raise your whole damage. So try to do that. So guys, when we are talking about basic build like that, it's a very important part to pretty much get important and good Shi with life on block for better durability and then move to improving other items such as body armor, such as rings, for example, or maybe helmet. So always start with a shield because Shield is going to give you Sur ability and that's a big

step forward so another very simple mistake. You have a lot of items right here, like body armor, gloves, boots, but you never rolled Elder implicits on them. So rolling Elder implicits on items is a very simple but cool way how you can get a little more power. You just need to take ELD currency, open like Place H your item in your inventory, and click it with ELD currency. That pretty much will give you ELD implicits too, and that's a very important part. So you will need to roll ELD implies on all of those items. So one of the most common mistakes when you're picking body armor, it's kind of basic. It got armor and evasion, and it's looking not that bad, but the amount of life that you have there is pretty low, and you don't have any other bonuses. So no suppress, no physical damage reduction, no any other bonuses. So most of the time, it would be a great idea to just repeat such armor and get one with some cool bonus like physical damage reduction or SP suppression, and

with a lot of health. This is the best way because getting dexterity on armor, on body armor, is not important. You can get dexterity on your rings, for example, or on other items. On body armor, you need to aim for one cool bonus and a pretty much higher amount of life. If you will be able to get higher armor and evasion, that would be good too. You have a decent amount here, but life is low, and you don't have any cool bonuses: no mana reservation, no suppression, no physical damage reduction. So, any of those bonuses would be very good. So, if you like to use a vate, you can always just add main to because m is going to help you with dealing damage with your main skill too. So, for example, for leray, if you will add M and enemies like main, it's going to give you more damage. So, as you can see, it gives you about 7% of additional damage. So, if you can hit an enemy with serate and M enemy Vis AIS serate, you're going to receive 7% of

damage. That's a very cool bonus, so take it, and I definitely recommend it to combine that way. I think it's working very good. You could use Light of Minion right here, and you could receive much more damage than that. If, for example, you're going to use Light of Minion for physical damage right here, for physical damage, it costs about 40 divines only. Your damage will improve from 3 million up to 4, like 3 million 700 up to 4 million. It's a very strong option, so Light of Minion, that's pretty much what you need. Another pretty important trick when you're buying medium cluster jewels, guys, you need to make sure that they are pretty much for damage over time, not for C damage over time. You have a jewel right here with cold damage over time instead of normal damage, and it's not providing you bonus from a small node. It's not a big miss; it's only about like 1% damage missed, but it's still a pretty nice steep when you're buying them.

make sure they're giving you just increased damage over time and not cold because cold is not good. You're not doing any cold damage. Slaughter is happening in the build like it's happening pretty often. If you have a Slaughter in your late build, respawning for cleaving would be a better option in terms of DMG, even if by a little, but try to resp it. I think it will work better. So that's been my compilation of common mistakes that people make when they're building based on my Pub fixing stream. Hope it can help you to fix some parts of your builds and it will make your gaming experience a little better. Thank you very much for watching. Subscribe for more RPG content and see you next time.

[PoE 3.25] FIXING Beginner's Builds - BEST TIPS vs Common Mistakes  - Path of Exile Guide

Many players struggle with dying and losing experience due to common build mistakes.

Using multiple flasks with the same bonus is ineffective, and it's better to diversify their effects.

Properly allocating cluster jewels, using blast orbs to change ring implicits, and prioritizing life points over mastery can significantly improve a character's performance.

Additionally, using catalysts for attributes can help save skill points while still achieving the desired stats.

Optimizing Attributes and Skills in Gameplay

Using attribute catalysts can help you reach your dexterity cap, allowing you to save points and forgo proficiency.

Molon shell is a better super ability than steel skin for players with high armor, offering longer duration and additional benefits.

It's crucial to pick sockets for bonuses and to cap spell block chance, either through mastery or double tattoos, to optimize your build.

Using Mastery is crucial for a Vanquisher build, as it can provide a 10% DPS boost with just one point.

Anointing your amulet with a cheap option like V Blade for Amber Veron and Indigo can offer an additional 7% DPS.

Prioritizing a shield for durability and then improving other items like body armor, rings, and helmets is essential for a strong build.

Rolling Elder Implicits and Choosing Body Armor

Rolling Elder implicits on items like body armor, gloves, and boots is a simple way to gain extra power.

It's important to prioritize body armor with higher life, physical damage reduction, and other bonuses, rather than focusing on dexterity.

Adding "M" to your main skill can also increase damage dealt to enemies, providing an additional 7% damage boost.

Using Light of Minion for physical damage can significantly boost your damage from 3 million to 4 million for only 40 divines.

When buying medium cluster jewels, prioritize those that offer increased damage over time rather than cold damage.

If you have a Slaughter in your late build, respawning for cleaving may provide better damage output.
