Ignite Build Theory Crafting for Path of Exile 3.25

The aspirational ignite build showcases impressive damage and tankiness, perfect for players who enjoy ignite mechanics.

### Theory Crafting an Elementalist Build with Five Mirrors
The video discusses an aspirational build for a burning ARA Vigor life stacking ignite Elementalist, focusing on the changes and crafts that could be made with five mirrors. The burning ground damage is calculated to potentially reach 120 million ignite DPS against bosses. The presenter suggests using awakened support skills and a corrupted Widow Hill for additional projectiles, aiming for a smoother clearing experience.

### Optimizing Gear for Spell Suppression and Damage
The Blizzard Crown is preferred for its damage boost and chill application, while a Warlord Redeemer with ignite and negative fire resistance is ideal. Spell suppression can be achieved by skipping the Thread of Hope and using Mage Bane with Reflexes. The quiver should have T1 rolls for life, damage, movement speed, and attack speed, with the option of a non-unique chest for additional six-link or Stone Brand setup.

### Optimizing Gear for Ignite Builds
Focus on armor evasion bases for gloves and boots, aiming for faster ignites and spell suppression through essence spamming. Prioritize fire exposure over fire damage multi for better DPS, and use fractured spells and chaos essences for resistance on the boots. Choose between Mage Blood and Head Hunter for the belt, and use a combination of flasks for optimal support, avoiding PR Genesis to prevent taking damage over time.

### Optimizing Corruptions and Jewels for Maximum Resistance
For corruptions, focus on increased attack speed and additional arrow fire damage for the Widow hail, while also prioritizing effects that remove ailments and provide damage immunity. Aim for maximum resistance jewels and mastery to boost overall resistance, and consider synthesized magic jewels for additional life and maximum resistance. The setup emphasizes a quality of life approach, given the already high damage output.

### Optimizing a Tanky Build with Malevolence
The build focuses on non-damaging ailments and maximizing damage through better shocks. Key elements include malevolence, dot multi, and damage immunity from bleed and poison. The strategy involves maximizing resistance, increasing life, and avoiding shocks to achieve a tanky character with high maximum resistance and life.

### Optimizing an Ignite Build in 25 Settlers of Kore League
The build focuses on life mastery, frenzy charges, and endurance charges, without the need for max power or endurance charge rings. Unbound El is not the best support gem; Alli damage with attacks is recommended for al reflect immunity. The creator plans to min-max the build and provide a safe path to follow for players interested in an ignite-focused gameplay.

### Path of Exile: Maximized Ignite Elementalist Theorycrafting with 5 Mirrors
* 🔥  The build aims to maximize ignite damage, reaching **120 million DPS against Uber bosses** and **30 million against regular bosses**.
* 🏹  The proposed changes include using an **Awakened Arrow Nova support**, **Awakened GMP**, and a corrupted Widowmaker with **+1 Arrow** for better clearing speed.
* 🎩  The helmet would be a crafted **Blizzard Crown** or an Apostate version with specific influences and mods to **optimize damage and survivability**.
* 🧤  Gloves and boots would also be armor evasion bases with specific mods, such as **faster ignites, spell suppression, and additional projectiles**.
* 💎  Jewels would focus on **maximum resistance** and **non-damaging ailment effects**, with specific recommendations for **corrupted and normal jewels**.
* 🍶  Flask choices would vary based on whether the player opts for a **Headhunter, Mageblood, or Dying Sun setup**.
* ⚙️  The gem setup would remain mostly unchanged, with **some flexibility for personal preferences**.
* 💰  The creator believes this is the **strongest ignite build** for the current league and encourages players who enjoy ignite mechanics to **try it out**.

Path of Exile 3.25 Comparison: Life Stacking Burning Arrow vs. EK Ignite Build

The new life stacking burning Arrow Vigor ignite Elementalist showcases significantly higher damage and tankiness than the EK ignite build.

### Comparing Life Stacking Burning Arrow to EK Ignite
The new life stacking burning Arrow build has half the investment but more than twice the damage of the EK Ignite build. It also offers better tankiness and speed, using the new Kaom's Heart for extra life. The main difference lies in the use of Ashes of the Stars, providing quality bonuses to skill gems and significantly boosting damage.

### Achieving Over 100 Million Ignite DPS in Path of Exile
A Path of Exile build can reach over 100 million ignite DPS with the right setup and against certain enemies like Ubers. The build offers the potential for extremely high damage and can also provide over 200,000 EHP and 300% movement speed, making the character very powerful. The build showcases its action in a map, emphasizing its clearing ability and the significant life boost from a specific quiver.

### Efficient Attack Speed and Damage Multipliers in the EK Build
The EK build allows for fast channeling of the snipe and offers ridiculous damage multipliers. It incorporates a frenzy setup and mirage archer for additional enemy resistance reduction. The use of Dissolution of Flesh provides increased life and a unique life reserve mechanism for added tankiness.

### Strategies for Navigating the End of the Map in the Delirium League
Fighting against powerful Delirium monsters with high life, using exploded flask with ignite proliferation for clear, and dealing with randomly spawning monsters. The key to success lies in being elemental and damage immune, while continuously min-maxing the build for optimal performance. The approach also includes quickly clearing monsters, preparing for the boss room, and efficiently farming for loot to save time.

### Strategy for Affordable Map Farming with Scarabs
Aiming for a low-cost map strategy using budget scarabs to keep the investment at 15 chaos per map. The build focuses on Burning Arrow with faster ignite proliferation and the potential for a circle clear playstyle. The Dissolution of Flesh combo is being utilized for its life regen and 30% more life, with a focus on evasion to mitigate the life reservation from taking damage.

### The Importance of Immunity in the Gaming Build
Having immunity to bleed and poison is crucial in the gaming build to avoid damage over time effects. The use of specific items and abilities, such as flasks and the Eternal Youth Keystone, allows for life reservation and continuous energy recharge, preventing damage. The build also prioritizes Resolute Techniques to disregard accuracy, making it a strong and cost-effective choice in comparison to other options.

* 📈  With quality bonuses from Ashes of the Stars, the build achieves **25.8 million ignite DPS** even without awakened gems, and has the potential to reach **over 100 million ignite DPS** with proper setup.
* 🛡️  The build's tankiness is enhanced by the **Dissolution of Flesh keystone**, which reserves life instead of taking damage, and **Eternal Youth** which recharges life based on energy shield.
* 🗺️  A map showcase demonstrates the build's **clear speed and survivability**, even against **tough Delirium encounters**.

EK Ignite: Tanky Version Struggles with Survivability, Path of Exile 3.25

The EK ignite build faced significant nerfs, leading to a shift towards a tankier version with damage mitigation and leech focus.

### Reworking EK Ignite Build for Better Defense
The 3.25 patch nerfed EK Ignite's defensive aspects, making it more of a glass cannon. The new tanky version focuses on damage shifting to mitigate cold and lightning damage, effectively providing triple elemental resistance. The build prioritizes the Tempered by War Keystone, Dawn Breaker, and Watcher's Eye modifier for Purity of Fire to achieve 100% conversion of cold and lightning damage to fire.

### Strategies for Achieving High Elemental Resistance in the Game
Prioritize achieving 90% fire resistance while also capping cold and lightning resistance to minimize damage taken. 
Using the "Divine Flesh" keystone and modifiers can help convert a portion of cold and lightning damage to chaos, allowing for a focus on maximizing fire resistance.
The reworked Val pact poses challenges for energy shield (ES) regeneration, requiring alternative methods such as using Breathing Jar to spawn worms and restore ES.

### Building Around Life and Energy Shield Leech for Effective Gameplay
Valak's blocking necessitates a focus on life and ES gain for effective gameplay, rather than formal skills. The build revolves around leech, with a focus on mana reservation efficiency to sustain casting while also utilizing the Everlasting Sacrifice for a buff. Despite trying various options, including divines for cluster jewels and gear, the most effective approach remains centered on leech for sustainability.

### Improving Delirium Mirror Farming in Path of Exile
Farming the Delirium mirror in Path of Exile can be challenging due to the increasing difficulty of monsters and high damage output. Building a tanky character for this may not be worth it, as it can lead to frequent deaths and stun locking. Instead, focusing on a glass cannon build with high damage output and ignite resistance can be more effective. Investing in affordable scarabs like Niko and Delirium can be a cost-effective way to sustain maps for this farming method.

### Ineffective Gameplay and Build Challenges in Path of Exile
The player struggles with a clunky character that is unable to tank hits, despite being a supposed tanky version. The build requires a significant investment in spell suppression and offers little life recovery, making it too squishy for harder content. The character's feeling of unsafety is leading to constant portal use, deviating from how the build is supposed to function.

### Reconsidering Legion Clearing Build Options
The speaker is dissatisfied with the current build's lack of physical damage mitigation and the negative effects of certain modifiers on endurance and frenzy charges. They are considering switching to an EK ignite or explosive arrow ballista build for better area coverage. The speaker plans to test the burning arrow version next and provide an update on the build's progression in the future.

### EK Ignite Tanky Build Experiment and Conclusion
* 🔥  The speaker discusses their attempt to create a **tankier version** of the EK ignite build in Path of Exile, following recent nerfs to the skill and related mechanics in **patch 3.25**.
* 🛡️  Two potential approaches were considered: one involving the **Dawnbreaker shield for damage conversion**, and the other using the **Mah's Subtle Machination shield for the Divine Flesh keystone**.
* 💼  The Dawnbreaker approach was abandoned due to the high resistance requirements imposed by the Temper by War keystone, making **gear optimization difficult**.
* 🧩  The Mah's Subtle Machination shield approach was pursued, but required heavy investment in **leech mechanics** to sustain energy shield (ES) due to the shield's **unique properties**.
* 💥  Despite efforts to make the build tankier, the speaker ultimately concludes that the traditional "**glass cannon**" EK ignite build is **more effective** for their gameplay needs.
* 🗺️  A map showcase is provided to demonstrate the build's performance in challenging content, highlighting the struggles faced in **sustaining survivability**.
* 🔮  The speaker hints at future build experiments, mentioning a potential shift to a **burning arrow build for comparison**.
* 🎮  The video concludes with a **thank you to viewers** and a **preview of upcoming content**.

### The Frustration of Transitioning to a New Build
The speaker transitioned from a Setic Strike, Chief Tain strength stacker to a strength stacking righteous Fire build, but was unhappy with the results. They invested heavily in energy shield and large cluster jewels to scale damage, but encountered issues with low damage and flask dependency, leading to frustration and frequent character deaths.

The speaker is reflecting on their recent gaming decisions, including trying out Righteous Fire with low investment on strength stacking. They are now considering a potential ignite strength stacking character after being inspired by a forum post from a few years ago.

### Creative Character Building in a Role-Playing Game

The character setup includes using specific items and keystones to achieve 90% cold and lightning damage taken as fire.
