Sharing Bloodmage Bone Cage + Bonestorm endgame build

11

Hello, I'm just sharing my updated build for a Bloodmage Bone Cage + Bonestorm.
Build details : https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/74e48e12-2dc3-4c1b-8f0a-8727f0d42b33/builds/163be57b-3b51-4434-a978-84a44f25e556

It's a close range build, you run, you spam bone cage, you win. Like a righteous fire but with 1 button spamming.
Bone Cage clears well but feels more difficult to build than a Detonate Dead build.
Bonestorm humiliate bosses and helps on some rare monsters.

My build has still a lot to optimize, so it's far from completed. I still need boots with movement speed, Amulet anointment, few elemental resis, level 20 base skill

My currenty questions about what to optimize :

  • Still not sure about passive tree nodes, but it currently gives me enough DPS and survivability
  • Not sure how many crit chance to aim. I'm currently at 70%. I would like to remove "Careful Assassin" from the passive tree to get extra passive points and crit damage but I didn't test it yet.
  • For Bone Cage support gems, I don't know if Ambush support can be usefull or not. Same question with Unleash. I'll try it later
  • I don't know what the best anointment to get on amulet
  • I want to test to remove Atziri's Disdain, I don't know if it's a good idea or not
  • I recently switched to Energy Shield + Evasion combo as I struggled to survive on T14/T15 maps before this switch. I think it costs more passive points than just stacking ES passive node, and I would love to invest in strength instead of dexterity for ascendency crit damage, but ES + Evasion unlocked my build to reach T15 maps so I guess it's better to aim for maximum suvivability when you have enough DPS to clear maps

I made few endgame build optimizations inspired from this post (Spell Cascade on Bone Cage instead of Spell Echo, ES + Evasion build) : https://www.reddit.com/r/PathOfExileBuilds/comments/1hk3ttk/bone_cage_bonestorm_tried_making_it_good/
