Path Of Exile 2 Top 7 Items On The Trading Market: Why Are They So Popular?

POE 3.26 injects vitality into this game at once, and you can still believe in the charm of this series. The rich and diverse skill combinations and unique items form a rich builds combination, giving players a sense of satisfaction to harvest monsters in different ways. As for Road to Exile 2, let’s throw this monster aside with a high value, low drop of items, and only Lightning Spear Amazon build.

The update of POE 3.26 has adjusted all aspects such as skills and monster resistance, and has added a lot of new unique items, which has led to a change in the strength of the build. So what powerful builds are there in this league?

1. Lightning Arrow Deadeye Build

The iconic skill of this build is Lightning Arrow and Artillery Ballista. It quickly cleans up any monsters with a high-speed bow.

You can use this build at the beginning, it cleans up the map very quickly. If it is just dealing with ordinary monsters, Lightning Arrow is completely enough. If it is dealing with bosses, it is to summon Artillery Ballistas, and while allowing the crossbow to shoot, it is constantly moving and attacking with Lightning Arrow.

The disadvantage is that it relies more on equipment, or more on weapons. You need high critical strikes and high attack speeds. Secondly, this build is very fragile, so you need to keep moving to avoid being attacked. If it is a new player, maybe he dies a few times while dealing with the boss.

2. Volcanic Fissure Of Snaking Berserker Build

Volcanic Fissure Of Snaking Berserker Build is a very violent build, and it has not been much of a change compared to the previous version. He can carry out multiple fatal blows on the enemy and constantly explode under his feet, causing fire damage.

And this build also has high blood-sucking ability, which allows him to act as a tank. The disadvantage is that it may not see the ground clearly because of constant explosions. Second, it is not that powerful when facing the boss that restricts blood sucking.

3. Poison Concoction Pathfinder Build

If you like toxins and don’t have too many POE Divine Orbs, then Poison Concoction Pathfinder build is perfect for you. You don’t have to worry about not being able to deal with elite enemies. As long as you keep throwing your poison bottle, your toxins will help you deal with all enemies except the boss.

4. Summon Raging Spirits Necromancer Build

This build is the favorite of all players who love summoning gameplay. You can start to build it at level 8. Your summoning objects can help you solve most of the things. You just need to follow them and pick up POE currency and other items.

This build is new to be friendly and is enough to melt the boss, the downside is that it takes a little time to accumulate damage and does not have much defense. If your equipment is poor, some bosses with large-scale attacks may destroy all your summons in one go.

5. Eviscerate Bleed Gladiator Build

This build is also a low-budget build. You can buy POE currency or items to increase its damage. Of course, the weapons and items which you find yourself, are not inoperable.

The advantage is that he can withstand high damage and farms very quickly, but the disadvantage is that he plays bosses a bit slowly, and has many buttons, which are slow.

6. Explosive Arrow Ballista Build

This is a build with multiple attack methods, and you can use crossbow arrows, traps, or explosions to create damage, and it also can penetrate elements.

This build mainly produces fire damage, and its advantage is that it is very powerful. Whether you have many Divine orbs or not, there are equipment suitable for you, but the damage limit will be different. The disadvantage is that the gameplay is relatively difficult and is not suitable for all players.

7. Poison Concoction Slayer Build

This build uses the life stealing of slayer and toxin scaling. By maximizing chaos damage, use a fatal blow to hit high explosions.

It is actually quite good in terms of survivability. As long as the boss cannot kill you instantly, you can rely on the blood recovery skill to recover. So this build has excellent performance whether it is dealing with bosses or farming maps.

8. Ice Shot Miner Deadeye Build

Bows and arrows have always been one of the most satisfying ways to play, and this build uses Ice Shot to slow the enemy down and has excellent single-body damage. When dealing with monsters, it uses the ballista totem paired with Barrage, which also has a satisfactory performance.

In terms of survivability, this build has the same common problem as other bow and arrow builds, and the amount of health is very low, so you need to frequently use dodge to avoid attacks and use blood recovery to recover your life.

Another disadvantage is that this build has high equipment requirements. If a good bow and arrow cannot be dropped from the monster’s drop, you have to use POE Divine Orbs to exchange for a good three-element rare bow.

9. Vortex Of Projection Archmage Hierophant Build

This is a very classic mage build that can produce satisfactory cold damage and has plenty of manas to maintain your shield and cast.

The advantage of this build is that as a Hierophant, you can have good AOE damage and also can survive provided by the energy shield. The disadvantage is that it does not move fast enough, is a bit bulky, and is also more dependent on equipment.

10. Ground Slam of Earthshaking Slayer Build

This is a melee AOE, which has a very fast attack speed, and it can trigger range damage by quickly attacking the enemy in front of you, so the farming is at high speed.

This build is very survivable, and its exorbitant amount of armor and powerful life stealing makes it almost impossible to avoid the boss’s skills. Its gameplay is very simple, and even new players can easily master it. The disadvantage is that it is difficult to acquire weapons and equipment.

The above are the several builds recommended in the Path of Exile 3.26. They all perform well in the endgame, and of course they also have some shortcomings. You can choose the build according to your preferences.

One of the biggest features of PoE 3.26 is the mercenary system, which players can hire by challenging and defeating mercenaries. Each mercenary has his own class, skills and equipment, and they will undoubtedly become your important helpers.

Although each mercenary has his own equipment, their gears are not very powerful, but fortunately players can manually change their gears, so what POE items are more suitable for these mercenaries?

Main Weapon

In the choice of main weapon, you can choose weapons for mercenaries that can either provide auxiliary aura effects or control monsters, slowing them down or weakening their elemental resistance.

Some unique items that have negative effects themselves but can protect allies are also great choices, such as Sign of the Sin Eater. Before, perhaps no one was willing to exchange for this unique item with his POE Divine Orb, but now it is one of the most suitable equipment for mercenaries.

• The Anticipation: Allows your mercenary to always be Intimidated by enemies.

Helmet

Helmets are also unique items, but it does not mean that you have to prepare all the perfect equipment for your mercenaries. Your POE currency is mainly used to improve yourself. If you get the following unique items during farming, don’t rush to turn them into Divine Orbs. You can check whether they are suitable for your mercenaries first.

• Crown of the Tyrant: Deals fixed damage to the enemy. Also reduces all resistances of nearby enemies by 10%.
• Ylfeban’s Trickery: Applies a random curse to the enemy when hit.

Amulet

The above are the most suitable equipment for mercenaries. They can form a wonderful combination with you, but you have to allocate equipment according to the attributes of the mercenaries. In addition, you must remember to take off their equipment when you dismiss them, otherwise they will take away your equipment worth hundreds of Divine orbs, and disappear forever.

Path of Exile 2 0.2.1 has been officially released. Besides the new currency and runes, the most noteworthy are the 9 new unique items. So what do these new unique items do? Can they appear in the player’s endgame builds?

1. Constricting Command Viper Cap

• Increases (80–120) to maximum Life
• Increases (10–15) to all Attributes
• Increases (8–12) Life per second
• Pin Enemies (when the target is Primed for Pin)

This item is obviously not very valuable, because it is not too difficult to Pin enemies in the game, and its unique effect is not very meaningful. But it can provide the character with maximum health and all attributes, and you can use it as your transition equipment.

2. Mind Of The Council Death Mask

• Increased 60–90% Evasion and Energy Shield
• Increased 60–90 to maximum Mana
• Increased 20–30% to Lightning Resistance
• Each attack costs an additional 6% of your maximum mana
• Each attack adds Lightning damage equal to 6–9% of your maximum mana

This unique item has great potential. If you are a Monk or Huntress, this unique mask can significantly increase your damage, and all you need is to stack maximum mana.

If you don’t need this unique item, I believe there will be other players willing to trade it for POE 2 Divine Orb.

3. Lioneye’s Glare Heavy Bow

• Increased 150–240% Physical Damage
• Increased 300–500 to Accuracy Rating
• Increased 10% Attack Speed
• Increased 20–30 to Dexterity
• If you haven’t Dodge Rolled recently, the next distance is increased by 2 meters
• If you have Dodge Rolled recently, the next distance is reduced by 1 meter
• Attack with this bow, and it repeats +1 times if there are no enemies around (default radius of 4 meters)

This unique item obviously increases your base damage and allows you to continue attacking as long as the enemy is standing 4 meters away from you. This is a powerful unique item, but it is not without alternatives. It is currently rarely used in top builds, and its potential is still untapped.

4. Murkshaft Toxic Quiver

• Gives Skill: Level 16 Bursting Fen Toad
• 10–15% chance to Poison Targets on Hit with Attacks
• Adds 6 to 17 Physical Damage per attack
• get 10–15 Mana per Enemy Killed
• Increases Poison Duration by 10–20%
• Increases chance to Poison on Hit with Attacks by 20–30%
• Blind enemies when you Poison them

This is a cool unique item that summons a poison frog that jumps into a monster pile and explodes when you make a kill. It doesn’t work when you’re dealing with bosses, but it’s really useful when you’re in a dungeon or tower.

5. The Last Lament Desolate Crossbow

• Grants Skill: Level 13 Requiem
• Increased 250–300% Physical Damage
• Increased 10–20% Attack Speed
• Leech 5–10% of Physical Damage converted to health
• 10–20% chance to add an arrow to your crossbow skill on killing
• When you have no arrows, consume 300 health to add an arrow
• Reduced 40–60% Reload Speed

This is an absolutely insane unique item that provides high base damage and gives you nearly unlimited arrows. The most extreme is the Level 13 Requiem, which provides 400% attack speed and up to 900% base attack boost.

If you use Lich, this can be used as a weapon for your endgame build. It is hard to drop, and you can buy POE 2 Divine Orb and trade it with other players.

6. The Whispering Ice Permafrost Staff

• Grants Skill: Level 17 Heart of Ice
• Grants Skill: Level 17 Icestorm
• Increases 2–4 to Level of all Cold Spell Skills
• Reduces Cast Speed by 10–20%
• Increases Intelligence by 5–15%
• Spell damage increased by 10 points of Intelligence
• Attacks cause Cold Exposure on hit, reducing the target’s total cold resistance by 20–30%

This is also a very interesting unique item, and you can use it to create a very interesting build. Its two skills slow nearby enemies by 60%, and you can farm in a very safe position.

7. Cadiro’s Gambit Primed Quiver

• Increases Attack Speed by 7–10%
• Each Arrow fired could be a Crescendo, Diamond, Splinter, Covetous, Reversing, or Blunt Arro

This is a very useful unique item for every player who uses bow, and all the arrows you shoot have a special effect. No matter what stage you get it, it can be used for something.

8. Adonia’s Ego Siphoning Wand

• Grants Skill: Level 4 Power Siphon
• Grants Skill: Level 15 Pinnacle of Power
• Increases Maximum Mana by 100–150
• Increases the level of all Spell Skills by 3
• Increased Cast Speed by 15–30%
• Reduced 10% to all Elemental Resistances every Power Charge
• (-1–1) to Maximum Power Charges

This is a very versatile Wand that consumes Power Charges to increase your elemental damage and reduce the elemental resistance of your enemies. As long as you stack Power Charges, you can get a pretty scary damage increase.

9. Palm Of The Dreamer Shrine Sceptre

• Grants Skill: Level 8 Impurity
• Adds extra Chaos Damage to allies you are with
• Increases all your attributes by 7–13
• Light Radius reduced by 23%
• Skill duration reduced
• Gain 27% of damage as extra Chaos Damage
• Gain Dreaming Gloom Shrine effect (killed enemies explode, dealing 25% of their maximum health to nearby enemies)

This unique item is really crazy because of Dreaming Gloom Shrine effect. With this effect, you can almost instantly clear half the screen of monsters, and it’s worth a lot of Divine Orbs on the market.

Most of the 9 new items are very powerful, and some can even greatly improve your endgame experience. But given the low item drops in POE 2, you may have to farm for a long time in the endgame map to get these new unique items.

After a long wait, we finally say goodbye to 3.25 and welcome 3.26. The developers also proved in the preview live broadcast that they are not lazy, and there will be enough content added to the game, almost equivalent to a Diablo 4 DLC!

To summarize briefly, the content of Path Of Exile 3.26 covers new endgame content, including new plots and three new Pinnacle Bosses, which can be defeated to get new unique items. In addition, new mechanism mercenaries have been added, and you can choose to recruit them or rob their items.

In addition to the above two important changes, there are many more added content, and let’s inspect.

Endgame

When the player reaches certain progress in the endgame, you will encounter a mysterious NPC, Eagon, in a Memory Tear. After interacting with Memory Tear, you can start a new Endgame mainline, and Eagon will also move to your hideout.

Memory Petals

After opening a new main quest, there will be some maps affected by Memory, where the monsters will carry Memory Petals. You can increase the counter to special memory abilities by killing these monsters, and you can activate special abilities after the counter reaches a certain level. The petals required for each ability are different. For example, Memory of Disbelief requires 30 petals, while Memory of Panic requires 50 petals.

Each map can only unlock one ability, but you can freely combine these abilities to make the monsters drop the loot you want.

• Memory of Disbelief: After activating the ability, the monsters affected by this effect will only drop items such as POE currency and maps, and no longer drop equipment
• Memory of Panic: After activating the ability, the monsters affected by this ability can be resurrected once after being killed, and you can get double experience points and loot.
• Memory of Impatience: After activating the ability, you can continue to absorb the souls of affected enemies to gain temporary enhancements.

New Pinnacle Bosses

As you explore the main quest, you will eventually encounter three Pinnacle Bosses, Incarnation of Dread, Incarnation of Neglect, and Incarnation of Fear. Each boss will drop a new unique item:

Starcaller (Incarnation Of Fear)

• Unique Abyssal Axe
• Trigger level 20 Starfall on melee critical hits
• All Attributes + 16-17
• Increases physical damage by 123-168%
• Increases critical chance by 22-30%
• Increases area of ​​effect by 12-20%
• 46-56% weapon physical damage converted to random elemental bonus damage

Wine Of The Prophet (Incarnation Of Neglect)

• Unique Gold Flask
• Increases maximum charge by 60
• Increases charge by 48% peruse
• Grants a random divination buff for 20 seconds when used

Enmity’s Embrace (Possibly From Incarnation Of Dread)

• Unique Vermillion Ring
• Increases strength by 49
• Increases fire damage by 14%
• Reduces fire resistance by 55%
• Affected by 449 when using a skill Fire Damage
• Damage Penetrates Fire Resistance equal to your Overcapped Fire Resistance

Prospero’s Protection (Possibly From Incarnation Of Dread)

• Unique Iron Ring
• 5% chance to block attack damage
• Increases Strength by 18
• Increases maximum health
• Double armor provided by equipped shield
• Cannot gain armor when equipped with body armor

The above are some of the new unique items in Path Of Exile 3.26, which can completely change the gameplay of some builds. However, they require you to defeat Pinnacle Bosses so you can get them, and if you want to get them and complete your build as soon as possible, you can trade with other players as long as you have enough POE Divine Orbs.

Memory Strand

In the affected maps, items dropped by monsters will also contain new modifiers related to Memory Strand. You can use the following three new currencies to influence Memory Strand:

• Orb of Remembrance
• Orb of Unravelling
• Orb of Intention

Mercenaries Of Trathus Challenge League

Mercenaries are a new mechanic introduced in Path Of Exile 3.26. These mercenaries appear in every city. They have unique skills and equipment, and they are also divided into strong and weak. Some mercenaries will have the affix “Infamous”, which means they have better equipment and are stronger than other mercenaries.

These mercenaries follow the following mechanics:

• You need to defeat them before you can unlock them for hire.
• You can recruit up to three mercenaries, but only one will fight with you, and the other two will stay in the town.
• You can change the equipment of mercenaries.
• You need to upgrade mercenaries manually.
• Mercenaries can be resurrected in the town with gold after death.
• Mercenaries will not drop items when they die.
• You can exile mercenaries, and such mercenaries will not appear in the next ten encounters.
• You can loot mercenaries.

There are also Mercenaries challenges, which reward you with unique items after completing a certain number of challenges.

Kingsmarch

With Settlers of Kalguur league settling in Kingsmarch, the quality of life of players will also change:

• Players will no longer need to build a town from scratch every time.
• Passive skill tree points unlocked in Act 1 are reset.
• Act 2 unlocks gold trading.
• Act 6 unlocks currency exchange.
• Players can now pause almost any time (some Pinnacle Bosses cannot).
• Players can hire workers to transport ore from various places back to the port, and complete the transportation to get Runegrafts as rewards.

These are still not all the changes brought by Path Of Exile 3.26. This is undoubtedly the best update so far, and whether you are a returning player or a new player, you can experience it for yourself after the update on Friday, June 13.

Path of Exile 2 Dawn of the Hunt has a lot of new content that players can play for a while. The emergence of the new class and Ascendancy class has disrupted the previous builds rankings, and the new class Huntress quickly replaced Monk.

Classes Evaluation

Before you choose a build, you must first determine the class. At Dawn of the Hunt, I recommend you to play Huntress and Ranger. Currently, both of them are the builds that can cause the most damage. Next are Witch and Sorceress. They can bring a pleasant experience in the early stage of the game, and the damage is also very high in the endgame.

The damage of Monk and Mercenary is not worse than any of the above classes, but their mechanisms are a bit complicated and players need to adapt for a while.

Warrior has excellent survivability, but is not good at causing damage. Therefore, in the endgame, whether it is farming maps or bosses, his efficiency is a bit low, and he also needs to use currency to roll out good modifiers for equipment.

Build Rank Criteria

Because of the freedom of building in POE 2, a criterion is needed to rank builds:

• Damage: Determines the overall damage of builds in high-level maps, making it not only efficient in clearing ordinary monsters, but also capable of dealing with bosses
• Survivability: Since there is a death penalty in the game, the build needs to avoid death and map failure as much as possible.
• Investment: Some builds require specific modifiers or unique items to operate smoothly, which requires players to buy POE 2 currency. Builds that do not require special modifiers and unique items are more popular.

S Tier

• Lightning Spear Amazon Build
• Glacial Lance Deadeye Build
• Spark Blood Mage Build
• Bleed Blood Mage Build
• Cast on Ignite Comet Infernalist Build

Lightning Spear Amazon is one of the most powerful builds currently. With Frenzy Charges, Lightning Spear Amazon can easily cause tens of millions of damage. Lightning Spear Amazon’s skill set is already quite good, so you don’t need to prepare any POE 2 items specifically. If you have a lot of Divine Orbs, you can trade her spear for a Soul Core of Quipolatl.

Glacial Lance Deadeye Build also benefits from Frenzy Charges. Glacial Lance, Combat Frenzy, and Disengage are all related to Frenzy Charge, which makes Deadeye’s DPS very high, but this build requires Thrillsteel Spired Greathelm and Nightscale Pauascale Gloves to increase skill speed and critical strike rate.

Bleed Blood Mage Build has super single-target damage. She can easily kill the boss of a 4-man team on the highest difficulty. In most of time, you can hardly see the boss’s next phase. If you like the one-hit-kill style of play, then you should try Bleed Blood Mage.

A Tier

• Dark Effigy Lich Build
• Slam Bleed Titan Build
• Bleed Bow Deadeye Build
• Ballista Tactician Build
• Storm Wave Invoker Build
• Poison Bleed Rapid Assault Ritualist Build
• Poison Pathfinder Build

S Tier builds can easily pick lv15 maps, while A Tier builds are slightly inferior in output limit, but can also pass normal areas without pressure in the endgame.

Dark Effigy Lich Build does not rely on summons. You can think of it as a caster that mainly deals chaos damage. It can cause large-scale AOE damage and can avoid damage from melee enemies. It can be said to be an attack and defense in one. The disadvantage of this build is that it consumes a lot of mana.

B Tier

• Flaming Smith of Kitava Build
• Lich Necromancer Build
• Bleed Twister Amazon Build
• Thorns Smith of Kitava Build
• Grenadier Gemling Legionnaire Build
• Fire Grenade Witchhunter Build
• Lightning Arrow Deadeye Build

B Tier builds either have low damage caps or very strict gear requirements. If you can’t meet the corresponding requirements, the damage of B Tier builds will be greatly reduced.

Flaming Smith of Kitava Build can deal large-scale damage and has high elemental resistance. However, its disadvantage is that its ability to resist physical damage is relatively weak, and it relies on stuns and stun accumulation.

C Tier

• Warcry Warbringer Build
• Ice Lightning Invoker Build
• Spark Stormweaver Build

C Tier and below builds are in a hard situation in the endgame. They have various problems, such as insufficient survivability, reliance on mana management, and low movement speed. This makes them very easy to die when facing powerful bosses. If you don’t particularly like this build, then it is not recommended to try it.

Leveling Builds

Leveling builds are only needed as a transition in the early campaign. Their own strength is not enough to deal with the content of the endgame, but good leveling builds can make your upgrade faster. The following are recommended leveling builds for each class.

• Strike Warrior Build
• Lightning Ranger Build
• Spark Sorceress Build
• Arsonist Minion Witch Build
• Lightning Mercenary Build
• Lightning Monk Build
• Bleed Huntress Build

The above are the builds worth using in Dawn of the Hunt. They can rely on their powerful damage-making capabilities to allow you to push every map in the endgame.

There are a lot of useless unique items in Path of Exile 2, some of which are even worse than rare items, so they are called the shame of unique items. But if you think all of they are not as good as top rare items, you are wrong.

You need to know which unique items are useful and use them. Even if you don’t need them for the time being, you can use them to exchange for currency.

No.1 Ingenuity Utility Belt

Drops from: King in the Mists (Pinnacle Version)

Effect:

• Increase the rewards obtained by equipping rings by 40-80%.

The benefits of this belt mainly depend on your rings. Fortunately, in POE 2, rings can bring very generous gains to players. They can provide characters with high elemental resistance, or increase the character’s casting speed and mana, etc.

The utility belt, which can increase the effect by about 50%, is already very valuable, but it can still be replaced by other rare belts. The belt that can increase the effect of the ring by 70-80% is more sought after by players.

No.2 Tangletongue Forked Spear

Drops from: Random Enemy Drop

Effect:

• Increases physical damage by 14-18 to 30-36 points.
• Increases critical hit rate by 10-20%.
• Increases intelligence by 15-25.
• Forked critical hit.

10% of skill mana consumption is converted to life consumption.

Tangletongue Forked Spear seems to have a relatively low DPS, but in fact, its main part of increasing damage comes from Forks Critical Hits. This is the best spear for the critical hit school, and almost all Amazon master players have one.

If you want to get this spear, you need to have at least a dozen Divine Orbs, otherwise you need to buy POE 2 currency.

No.3 Olroth’s Resolve Ultimate Life Flask

Drops from: Olroth, Origin of the Fall

Effect:

• Restores life immediately.
• Each use replenishes 100-150% of the charge.
• When restoring excess life, the extra part acts as Guard for 10 seconds.

The biggest use of this unique Life Flask is that it can restore life immediately. Ordinary Life Flasks all slowly restore some of your life over a few seconds, and the amount of restoration is less than Olroth’s Resolve Ultimate Life Flask.

It can restore more than 1,000 of your life in one go, and the excess part will not be wasted and can be converted into Guard. Whether in a boss battle or on a farming map, it can save you from emergencies.

No.4 Sacred Flame Shrine Sceptre

Drops from: Arbiter of Ash

Effect:

• Make 40-60% of your damage as additional fire damage.
• Allies and summons around you gain 20-30% of damage dealt as additional fire damage.
• Allies and summons around you regenerate 2-3% of their maximum health per second.
• All elemental resistances of enemies around you are based on their lowest elemental resistance.

This sceptre is perfect for Witch players, as it increases the fire damage of minions, heals them, and weakens enemy resistance, thus improving the ability of summoned troops all around.

In addition, as a unique sceptre, it can also provide 100 Spirit as a secondary, which can be used in most builds that deal element damage.

No.5 From Nothing Diamond

Drops from: King in the Mists (Pinnacle Version)

Effect:

• Keystone passive skills within a certain radius can be activated without being connected to your talent tree.

This gem allows you to assign a passive node to any location in the passive tree, as long as it is within the range of the keystone that can randomly generate this gem. For nodes outside the gem range, you must link them to your talent tree, and the areas where From Nothing Diamond can be embedded are mainly on the edges of the skill tree.

No.6 The Deepest Tower Spiritbone Crown

Drops from: Random Enemy Drop

Effect:

• Increases armor and energy shield by 70-130%.
• Increases maximum health by 70-100.
• Increases chaos resistance by 17-23%.
• Reduces presence range by 50%.
• Reduces light radius by 10%.
• Monsters in front of you will be treated as low health.

This helmet can be used in conjunction with Execute. The effect of Execute is that you increase damage to low health enemies by 40%. With this helmet, you will be much more efficient in farming POE 2 currency.
