Path of Exile What Builds Survived the Searing Worlds Gauntlet?

The Gauntlet is usually where the tankiest tanks survive, but this time was so brutal that I doubt these builds will be good for normal PoE, though a couple might be alright. Yes I know a few days have passed since the filming of this video, so not everyone will be alive.

0:00 - This Gauntlet is Brutal
1:36 - Fire Trap
4:23 - Spark?
6:25 - Toxic Rain Pathfinder
9:01 - Melee is not Viable
10:21 - Herald of Juggony

I got to Act 2 after 6 tries, got bandits and Piety done, farmed some levels and went to bed. The next day I was deternimed on not dying to the Weaver, and on my way there, 5 seconds after leaving the waypoint, got off-screen chain stunned by a blue pack of the new "skeletal spriggans" that make exploding pods on the ground...

Imagine if someone made a TR build guide using Ballista Totems for single target. That would be sick.

Overall excellent video. Your "rambling" is 10x as coherent and focused as most people's full guides. Good work

Yes I participated, got to Hillock. :D

So i played Zizarans EA Build and got to lvl 89 where i died in a T10 map to a really strong poison and because i had my flasks down too greedy to portal and then in the last 31 hours of the gauntlet i had my next char past spider and was ready to go, lvl 90 in 30.5 hours finishing at about 21:30 o clock.
The last half level i suddenly got so tired that it got really exhausting and took me about 2hours when before that i was really efficiently grinding.

got two characters to lvl74 and 81 (stole "Alkizers starter build") Spectral helix champion

Took a slow and steady RF inquis with 5 end charges, to 90. Wish I had more time to try a few bosses.

[mobilenerdgames]

My record was end of akt one i cant handle the boss so i stopped thereafter i had 50 or more tries to just getting to end of act one lol

[gopalayoung]

My first death was to Hillock after a 4 minute fight. That was enough for me.

[poppanoxiana]

i got to act 5 on tr raider and died to lag got deprecion and joined a cult cant wait for next one!

[driocku]

What percent of those builds are running spell suppression is the real question.

[tonytopp]

level 87 raider Helix died in heist in a hard blueprint 🙂' and its hard really

[yaythereal]

I don't know where steel skills get their only leveling reputation, lancing steel is one of the most crazy damage scaling skills in the game

[danielhovan]

Question, would chieftain running physical traps with full conversion into fire be ok, or would damage suck?

[fucgoogle]

Hardmode is gonna be a huge success...

[voodoo]

Did act one then died and the idea of doing the coast again made me not want to log back in. I enjoy the gauntlet for a day or two outside of the coast where it is just super lame that the best you can do it run from one end to the other and cross your figures you don't die because fightning most of the stuff there is a trap. That isn't fun game play in my book personally.

Otters is a ssf hc genius, absolute underrated god tier player and he did amazing in gauntelet too! I died on act 2 three times so i gave up after a couple days. I learnt so much, I usually only play SC, even though i did a HC to lvl 80 a few leagues ago. Gauntelet teaches you a lot, everyone who is "serious" about poe should try it out

[akimezra]

Farthest i got was end of act one .... With 24 tries....

"Melee is not Viable"
Hasn't been viable for some time. GGG seem to not like people "Standing and Delivering", so they make impossible AOE based damage to force people to move.
The closest we can get is a big hit of DoT or Spectral Helix and then spend some time repositioning for the next hit.

I've been playing poe for over 1.5k hours, but still never got to Sirus. For me, the meaning of the game is to find your own path, a unique non-meta build, since there are many opportunities for this in this wonderful game. I plan to put together my own reliable build for the next big event for 3.18.

[aaronbstful]

Splitting steel isn’t melee tho lmao it’s just bad
