Velyna's Explosive Concoction Ascendant, Ascendancy, Bandits & Pantheon (PoE Settlers of Kalguur)
Due to the latest balancing changes, we do not recommend playing this build anymore, as it does not meet the high standards we apply to our guides in terms of fun and performance. We are leaving it up as a reference and it might be revived in a later patch.
Ascendancy
First Lab – Points towards Pathfinder
The first 2 ascend points only give us attributes and 1 talent point, so don’t worry about doing it right away.
Second Lab – Pathfinder & 1 point towards Slayer
Pathfinder fuels a lot of your charge generation so I recommend grabbing it first.
Third Lab – Slayer
Overleech is part of our defensive layering, and we get big value from the AoE as well because we are one of the few shotgunning skills in the game.
Final Lab – Path of the Ranger
This gives us 2 additional skill points, and allows us to swap our tree over to starting from ranger area.
Bandits
Kill them all, or help Kraityn for 8% movement speed.
Pantheons
- Major: Brine King at first for the defenses, later on it becomes more flexible.
- Minor: Lot of options here but Shakari is the easiest way to get some protection from poison, or if you want to get maim and blind immunity for the new map mods you can go the upgraded Garukhan.
