Off-tank Banner Tactician - 70k armour / 70% MS - In depth guide

I wanted to play banners since 0.1 but had no build that I really liked so I decided to create one when I found the armour explosion wind dancer techniques. I Also wanted to be much more tanky than the amazon I was playing and who was constantly getting stunned and dying from one shots. The result is a Tactician with 70+k armour (72k with banner + scavenged plating) and 70%mS thanks to the defiance banner. The war banner gives us 57% more damage and a much needed +330% increased accuracy. What I really like is the 40% of armour applying to elemental damage, which helps mitigate those by a lot (in the mapping video I intentionnaly take 2 meteors from shrine to test it). And we use really good numbers of life leech to always stay at max life even if we only have 2500+ As we use the +47% elemental resistances per banner our gearing is much more easier and I would consider this build to be quite affordable, the real spendings being chernobog (less than a divine nowadays) and ofc a big bonky hammer. It's the first build that I create myself, with obvious borrowings from ForfeitFPV, Kaltorak and Frenly Chonk for the wind dancer tech. As armour is right now not the best defence, and because we lack powerful ways to pump up maximum life, I fully expect this build to improve in terms of defences if nothing is nerfed (looking at you deepest tower helm). If you have suggestions or questions I'd be happy to hear them!

Chaos Plant Still Persists After Rare Dies - Patch Notes Inaccurate

[In these patch notes](https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3787044), its stated: "Volatile Plants & Empowering Volatile Plants now disappear when the rare monster that spawned them dies." This is not in effect. I would hope when they fix this, they do the same for Lightning Mirage, as it presents the same issue in that it follows you for quite a long time on killing the rare. You can see the date in the bottom right of the video. It's not an isolated case, it happens with all rares. This is just an example of it.

what is the difference between Path of Exile 1 and Path of Exile 2

Damage conversion works in different way. In poe 1 you can have pure physical damage 2h axe, scale it with increase physical damage passive nodes, more physical damage support gems, and than convert all that damage into fire and scale it from increase fire/elemental damage passives. In poe 2 it will only scale from fire/elemental damage passives, and conversion will work only for base physical damage.
