Poe Does Frost Blades Beneffit From Melee Dmg

Posted By admin On 01.12.20
  1. Sep 08, 2019  Frost Blades Raider is a Top Tier Melee build for Path of Exile's Patch 3.8. Our in-depth guide includes recommended Items, Passives, Skill Gem setups, and leveling tips. Check out the best PoE Builds at Odealo.com.
  2. It is quite clear that melee physical damage does not affect Frost Blades projectiles just like it does not affect Lightning Strike projectiles (but it does misleadingly affect the tooltip/initial strike in both cases), so I would not expect Disembowling to work with the projectiles.

With at least 40 Dexterity in Radius, Melee Damage dealt by Frost Blades Penetrates 15% Cold Resistance With at least 40 Dexterity in Radius, Frost Blades has 25% increased Projectile Speed The winter that followed the Cataclysm was especially harsh. Wraeclast's few survivors fought to. Frost Blades is good at clearing maps because it has ok damage and homing projectiles. One attack is worth 8+ if enough enemies are on the screen - making it efficient. In boss fights you dont get any projectiles as there is only one target - you are basically using your default attack in terms of efficiency.

I'm currently leveling using FB, and I'm using FB+WED+MeleePhys+Multistrike+Melee Splash+Reduced Mana. I'm also using the Point Blank node. It seems to be working well atm.

I've just finished making a build thread for the Frost Blades build I've been running. I'm using an Oro's Sacrifice with the skill and it's working great! If anyone is curious, here is the link:

Have you tested chain instead of fork? I think it might be better.

Yes I did. Read FAQ I explained my point there.
It is actually better in clear speed on average but I won't call it huge advantage.
Melee: Frost blades, Frenzy.
Spell: EK, Firestorm.

Have you tried out pierce? I was thinking of trying it, seems it would be great for the projectiles.
Im actually finding the seeking projectiles adequate without fork too while leveling.

While I've currently switched back to Reave (the AoE clear is simply better to be honest) I've leveled up and mapped with Frost Blades.
Passive Tree
As you can see I've really only picked up either Phys or Crit nodes because of the projectile mechanics.
If you get enough crit using Herald of Ice will speed up the clearing of packs even more, it just sadly lacks behind Reave.


If I remember correctly the fully buffed tooltip DPS was around 75-85k with a 6L and Bino's.
Now the issue is that Reave just does more DPS because Melee Physical Damage is so strong or you can get the same DPS with more area.
Don't get me wrong, I really enjoyed playing Frost Blades but for maximum clear speed you're better off using Reave (or wait for GGG to buff Frost Blades :) )

A funny thing to do but totally NOT endgame viable doable with a fast 1h (usually 7 to atk/s) or a 6L wideswing:
FB + multistrike + melee splash + gmp + chain + knock back
Its funnier with a wideswing if you took the fending passives and both witch and templar aoe

Marauder? No you will struggle with accuracy.
Duelist. GOOD
Scion. GOOD
Ranger. GOOD
Shadow. GOOD
(..)


You can trade scions starting resist nodes 1:1 for marauders life/armor in your skilltree.
The only difference in terms of 'accuracy struggles' is: lvl1 scion has 20 dex, marauder has 14. Which means nothing at all.
So if your build makes a Scion not struggle with accuracy, same applies to a Marauder.

I need these resists to get overcap required to run ele weakness maps.
Of course I can play marauder, but playing it from the start with 0 accuracy is less comfortable. In end game it's not the case of course.

Poe Does Frost Blades Benefit From Melee Dmg 3

Jul 13, 2015  It's going to require at least LMP or fork/pierce/chain, if not both, to relax the target cap sufficiently to be able to clear Merciless pack sizes effectively. That's a damage hit that most other melee skills don't have to worry about, so Frost Blades is going to require quite a. Aug 30, 2018  Poe Burning Arrow is a ranged attack skill that fires an arrow dealing fire harm to a target with an enhanced possibility of igniting it. In Poe Metamorph League, Burning Arrow includes a new mechanic that applies a more stacking Burning effect anytime it ignites, dealing a portion of the ignite harm.This can stack as much as five times and allows you to get additional damage against a target. On level 16 start using Herald of Ice and on level 18 link your Frost Blades with Elemental Damage with Attacks Support. At level 24 start using your Hatred.In the early stages of the game bosses will pose a challenge, you can switch Ancestral Call Support for Melee Physical Damage Support if you want to kill them faster.
