This is my CWDT Forbidden Rite Soulrend Occultist build. This build costs a minimum 100 Divine Orbs and in my version is around 150 Divine Orbs.
First, let’s talk about items. We use the unique item Cane of Kulemak and you should only purchase or unveiled this stuff with these three modifiers: level and quantity of socketed support gems, increased spell damage, and crit multi.
So, don’t purchase another Cane of Kulemak without these modifiers. If it’s too expensive for you now, you can purchase another rare stuff (Rapture Cry Imperial Staff) with few damage, crit multi, and level 2 chaos gems.
Next is the helmet. I recommend grabbing the helmet by yourself just spamming Reforged defense in Harvest. So, purchase a Cataclysm Ward Runic Crown with Forbidden Rite lab enchantment and look for 500 plus Ward and resistances.
Next item is the amulet. We need plus two chaos gems with crit multi. So, what you should do? Just purchase an amulet with fractured crit multi and learn how to craft a +2 amulet.
As a body armor, we use Skin of the Lords with Glancing Blows for maximum block or other passive that doesn’t destroy your build. So, check what passive does before purchasing. Also, be careful because on these body armor, sockets cannot be modified. So, purchase with right colors. It can be 3 blue, 1 green, 1 red as I use or it can be 2 blue, 1 green, 2 red.
Next is two rings. We use Hardbound Loop and you should have only 420 physical damage taken on Minion Deaths. Without that, your build will not work right. If you have enough POE Currency, you can purchase rings with Zealotry increased effect implicit. If you don’t, it’s okay.
Next, is gloves. I recommend crafting gloves like a helmet, so we need only resistances in words. You should purchase Bramble Mitts Runic Gauntlets with fractured T1 elemental resistance. And just go reforge defense in Harvest until you get good resistances and 400+ Ward.
Next is the belt. On the belt, we look for strength, increased flask effect duration, reduced flask charges it uses and increase cooldown recovery rate. You can purchase this belt for around 70 Divine Orbs or just craft it with Harvest Reforged Life and have increased flask effect duration fractured.
Next is boots. On the boots, we need Ward resistances and movement speed. Also, we should have increased cooldown recovery rate in implicit and I craft in the same way as gloves and helmet. About all Eldridge Implicits in these builds, just do the same as I have.
Now is about flasks. We have only three flasks and first is Olroth’s Resolve. This is our main flasks and this flask should be always active when we fire our skills because when the charges run out we die. So, craft Reused At The End Of This Flask’s Effect or just purchase with this enchantment.
Next flask is Dying Sun. We use it because of two additional projectiles, increased area, and Fire Resistance. Because in this build it’s hard to get some elemental resistances on items. Also, we need the same enchantment here and the last one is Quicksilver. Craft additional elemental resistances on these flasks. Also, you need to craft user and charges reach full. The last important item in this build is weapon swap. You should always have two Wands with trigger Spectral Spirits on the swap. Because without it, this build doesn’t work. Just purchase two Wands and use Essence of Insanity for this modifier.
Now about skill gems and after gems, I will tell you how actually we start our Forbidden Rites and Soulrend. So, now, let’s talk about all the gems in this build and awakened versions you can replace with regular ones if you don’t have enough currency. But about alternative quality of gems, you should purchase exactly the same.
It is very important that your three Divergent CWDT gems should be at level 20 and have 20 quality. In these builds, we have two 6-Link skill gems that deal damage. The first is Forbidden Rite. And we use it in our stuff with Increased Critical Damage for crit multi, Awakened Void Manipulation for more chaos damage, level 4 Empower for level of gems, Greater Multiple Projectiles for 4 additional shots, and Divergent Cast When Damage Taken.
Next sixth link is Soulrend in Hexblast. We use it with Greater Volley for additional projectiles, Divergent Cast When Damage Taken to trigger these skills, Awakened Void Manipulation and Arcane Surge.
Next one is mark and minions. It should be Divergent Assassin’s Mark, Divergent Cast When Damage Taken, Anomalous Summon Skeletons and Anomalous Minion Speed with level 20 and 20 quality.
About minion speed, it’s so important to have an exactly anomalous version and have 20% quality. Because it reduces 40% minions duration and in this build, we should have a total 99% reduced minion duration, so 40% from this gem and 59% from unique jewels. Next one is our Despair curse and Phase Run. We use it with regular Cast When Damage Taken level 20 and Enhance level 3.
And the last gem set is the Zealotry aura, Frostblink or Flame Dash for movement, Divergent Eternal Blessing and Righteous Fire. That’s all about skill gems.

Now, let’s talk about passive tree and finally how we should activate this build. Here is my passive tree for maximum passive tree level and there are a few important things that you should know about this build.
First is To Dust unique jewels. As I said before, you should have 99% reduced minion duration total to trigger our main skills. So, we have 40% reduced duration from Anomalous Minion Speed and you need to purchase 3 To Dust jewels with a total 59% reduced skeleton duration. And it’s two levels with 20% and one with 19%. They are not too expensive, so it’s easy to buy exactly with this amount.
Next one is Timeless Jewel. We purchase something with increased critical strike chance and look at the Conqueror. So, before purchasing Timeless Jewels, you should import it to your password building or you can use the website for Timeless Jewel.
Also in this build, we have two large cluster jewels and four medium jewels. One large cluster jewel gives us Conjured Wall for spell damage and block spell damage, an Essence Rush for damage and leech. Also, we have two identical medium clusters. They should be with 6 passive skills, adding small passive skills. They also grant increased flask charges gains because our flasks equal our damage and survivability.
Next is the large cluster jewel. You can purchase or craft with any passive skills that give you chaos damage. You should have two medium clusters: one is Fasting and Brewed for Potency, and another one with Circling Oblivion and Dark Ideation. Also, in this build, we have Impossible Escape jewel with Iron Grip. So, we can take these two passives for life and mana without being connected to our tree.
The last important thing on this passive tree is Watcher’s Eye unique jewel that gives us increased critical strike chance against enemies on consecrated grounds. Another will show you how to actually activate our skills.
Finally, when you have 99% reduced skeleton duration, two Wands with Spectrals Spirits and increased cooldown recovery rates, you’re ready to play this build at full power.
When you enter the map, you should activate your flasks, then do weapon swap, two times activate your Righteous Fire, and go kill monsters. Your skills will be shooting and you will not die as long as the Ward flask is active.
If your skills stopped, just reactivate your flasks and do swap your weapon two times or you will die. If you killed all the monsters on the map and want to take the loot, you should take off and put on your helmet and you will not die.

In the ongoing Path of Exile 2 Dawn of the Hunt league, the newly added Huntress is a hybrid class that focuses on both melee and ranged attacks, and is good at using its spear to deal with various situations in combat. However, in the current game, many players are more accustomed to playing it as a character that casts ranged attack damage.
Here, Huntress build with Lightning Spear, a spear skill as the core has become the main choice for players who like ranged combat. Although this skill may cause low damage to enemies in early exploration, if you choose some correct support gems for it and other skills that can match it, your build will be very suitable for the leveling stage that requires fast map clearing and efficient farming.
Since there are more than a hundred support gems, skill gems, and gear belonging to Huntress in the current game, this guide will recommend some of the most suitable options for Lightning Spear Huntress build for you, as well as some precautions you need to pay attention to during the battle.
As mentioned earlier, since the core of Lightning Spear Huntress build is this powerful spear skill, all other options in the build are basically based on maximizing its damage, while using the electrocute effects provided by Wind Dancer, Ghost Dance, and Electrocute to provide you with strong defense.
When you are fighting against some bosses or enemies with strong survivability, you can use Storm Lance as your auxiliary attack skill, which will help you have higher single-target DPS. At the same time, Lightning Spear will also be enhanced to a certain extent by the addition of Storm Lance, so you will have amazing damage capabilities when rotating skills.
In addition to the physical defense provided by regular gear, you also need to pay attention to the gains they bring about Evasion Rating and Energy Shield, and you should buy POE 2 Currency as much as possible to improve their specific effectiveness. When you combine these gears with Ghost Dance, it will be difficult for the enemy to cause any substantial damage to you, making you more tanky.
In the early stages of your quest in POE 2, you’ll want to first use Explosive Spear and Expedite skill link to Detonate Storm Lance, as this skill combination gives you strong damage and clearing capabilities in the early stages of the game.
Then switch to Lightning Spear once you have it, but remember to use Cull the Weak or Parry mechanic to execute some low-health enemies to accumulate Frenzy Charges, which can be used in the next Lightning Spear or Storm Lance skill you cast, giving you a greatly improved damage capability.
In fact, the true power of this Lightning Spear Huntress build only begins to show after you gain Frenzy Charges: with the help of Electrocute, Lightning Spear can apply stackable lightning damage to enemies, and with the link of Pin and Wind Dancer, you will continue to perform Frenzy Charges, and your Lightning Spear skill will also be strengthened to make up for the shortcomings.
But it should be noted here that you should not add Sniper’s Mark to your build until you unlock the first Ascendancy point and get Critical Strike, because your Critical Strike chance is very low before that, and you cannot use this skill gem to its maximum effect.
After you meet the above conditions and activate some nodes that can provide you with critical strike buffs in your POE 2 passive skill tree, you can use Sniper’s Mark to deal super high bonus damage to higher-level bosses or enemies with higher health and have Frenzy Charges.
Although Barrage can be used to double the number of Lightning Spear throws to provide higher DPS buffs, it costs a lot of mana, so if you have gear in your build that can generate mana for you continuously, you can consider using it.
Before you are ready to enter the endgame, you will find that your dodge rate is very high, so you can use Ghost Dance to add an extra layer of defense to yourself. It will restore your energy shield according to your dodge rate when you are hit to increase your survivability in combat.
When making a Lightning Spear Huntress build during POE 2 leveling phase, it is important to find a very powerful spear for it, especially those that can increase your physical damage or lightning damage, which are worth the large amount of POE 2 Currency you spend on upgrading.
If necessary, you can also use Artificer’s Orb to add a slot to your spear and place an Iron Rune or Greater Iron Rune in it for higher damage buffs. Please note that after you make a spear with the properties you need, please recycle the items with qualities or slots in time to obtain the large amount of currency needed to upgrade the spear.
For your armor, you need to choose those that can provide you with dodge rating so that Ghost Dance can better provide you with energy shield. It is also very important to have items that can provide you with some mobility, such as boots that increase your movement speed.
In addition, you should try to keep the elemental resistance capped at 75% when possible, because this is an important factor in ensuring that you can fight against monsters or bosses that focus on elemental damage.
The above are some options and precautions for Lightning Spear Huntress build that is very popular in Dawn of the Hunt League in the current POE 2 Early Access. I hope you can use this powerful build to successfully pass the leveling stage and get more loot that can be used in the endgame stage. I wish you a happy game!
Of all the new content Path of Exile 2 Dawn of the Hunt has to offer, perhaps the most exciting for players is the addition of the new Huntress class, who brings new vitality to the game with her abilities in both melee and ranged combat.
Not only that, Amazon Ascendancy it provides has become one of the current players’ favorite Ascendancy classes. This is a hyper-offense-focused archetype and focuses on turning your character into a mobile artillery by stacking critical hit rate and elemental damage to destroy numerous enemies from a distance.
Of all the passive skill nodes that Amazon Ascendancy provides you, Elemental Infusion is the most powerful one. It gives Huntress a skill called Infuse Weapon. In this skill, your own elemental damage ability is super-highly buffed, so that you have more combat advantages when fighting against enemies or bosses that are vulnerable to elemental damage.
Although each skill gem and passive skill in POE 2 has its own description of how it works, if you learn more about the background information behind them from this guide, you can master them more skillfully and comprehensively, and can play their greatest role in actual battles and campaigns.
Infuse Weapon is a passive skill of Huntress provided by Elemental Infusion node on the passive skill tree of Amazon Ascendancy. To activate this node, you first need to complete Trial of Sekhemas or Trial of Chaos to unlock Amazon, and get 2 Ascendancy points from some rooms in these two trials to activate this node.
It should be noted here that although Ascendancy points can be obtained by completing the trial with the lowest difficulty, it is more challenging than in the regular campaign, so you may need to buy POE 2 Currency in advance to appropriately enhance some of the gear in your current build so that you can complete the corresponding challenge in one go.
Since Infuse Weapon is a passive skill exclusive to Huntress, you don’t need to place a skill gem for it, nor do you need to right-click or press the skill button to activate it. It always remains in the background ready to be activated, and can be activated as long as the conditions are met.
Before discussing the specific effect of Infuse Weapon, you need to understand the role of Elemental Infusion node that activates it in POE 2:
In short, this node allows you to provide you with some elemental damage infusion when you make some necessary charge consumption, and in the description of Infuse Weapon skill activated by it, the gains of these elemental infusions are displayed through the weapon you use.
When you use a weapon with Elemental Infusion to attack a non-melee projectile, your projectile’s damage capacity is increased accordingly, and it explodes after it ends, causing secondary explosion damage.
Note that Infuse Weapon skill itself does not consume charges, and can only be triggered and gain Elemental Infusion after you use another skill that consumes charges, and the type of element here also depends on the type of charges you consume.
In short, if you use some skills that generate charges, such as Cull the Weak, and then cast a skill that consumes such charges, such as Lightning Spear, during combat, Infuse Weapon will be triggered, and your weapon will be infused with the corresponding element.
During this process, you cast a non-melee projectile skill, such as Twister, to consume the infusion, so that the projectile you throw out has super high elemental damage and will trigger a large-scale explosion at the impact point.
Here you need to be reminded that the infusion has a 15-second cooldown before it disappears, and the number of infusions of the same type cannot exceed 6 at the same time. So you can get up to 6 Fire, 6 Cold, and 6 Lightning Infusions through Infuse Weapon skill at the same time.
At this stage, Huntress has 5 active skills that can trigger this passive skill: Lightning Spear, Explosive Spear, Storm Lance, Glacial Lance, and Whirlwind Lance.
As mentioned above, one of the triggering conditions for Infuse Weapon skill is to have enough Charges in your build, but the fact is that the active skills that Huntress has can’t provide you with enough Charges, so you may need to specialize in a main way to generate Charges.
In addition, Frenzy Charges are the easiest for Huntress to generate of the three consumable Charges, and the skill set that generates this Charge works perfectly with Lightning Infusion obtained by the weapon.
The most effective way to generate Frenzy Charges is to activate Combat Frenzy node, which will provide you with a certain amount of Charge every time you use Electrocute, Freeze, or Maim on the enemy.
Here, it is highly recommended to cast Electrocute directly on the enemy through Kitoko’s Current Unique Gloves, because it will increase with the increase of subsequent Lightning damage you apply to it, making it impossible for the enemy to resist.
What’s more, you can also utilize Resonance node to convert all Frenzy Charges into Power Charges, thus increasing the effectiveness of your cold infusions, which is perfect for players using a Freeze Huntress build.
The above is the specific effectiveness and combat strategy of Infuse Weapon passive skill provided by Amazon Ascendancy in the current POE 2 Early Access Dawn of the Hunt League. I hope you can learn more about the power of this passive skill from this guide and use it effectively in your regular battles. I wish you a happy game!
Dawn of the Hunt League, which launched a while ago in Path of Exile 2 Early Access, introduced a new reward mechanic called Unique Strongboxes. This mechanic was inherited from the original game, where it was originally just called Strongboxes.
So you can clearly see that the current Unique Strongboxes are special versions of Strongboxes, but they are also guarded by some larger group monsters. Although there are currently some treasure chests in POE 2 that can provide you with high-quality loot, Unique Strongboxes contain even more valuable items than some pinnacle bosses.
Given that the items awarded by Unique Strongboxes are so valuable, but the description of this mechanic in the game can be very confusing for all players, so this guide will give you an introduction to it, including the types of Unique Strongboxes and their specific potency, so that you can farm them specifically and use the rewards from them to enhance your own builds.
In POE 2 Dawn of the Hunt league, you will find four Unique Strongboxes:
Each of them offers you some rewards that cover all aspects of the game, such as rare currency, buffs to the monsters you challenge, and gear. It should be noted here that some Unique Strongboxes are guarded by higher-level monsters, so you need to prepare a strong enough build in advance to fight them.
The easiest way to do this is to interact with the checkpoints along the path frequently during exploration so that you can buy POE 2 Currency to upgrade the rarity of gear that will provide you with offensive and defensive ability buffs and re-roll affixes to ensure that you always have the best current build.
Next, we should take a closer look at the specific effects of each Unique Strongbox.
The fact that this Unique Strongbox costs POE 2 Gold to open is a deterrent for many players, but it will cause them to miss out on a lot of valuable rewards. The first time you encounter it and open it, you need to pay 200 Gold, and your gold cost will increase with each subsequent exploration.
When you interact with the second Ventor’s Contraption Researcher’s Strongbox, you will be given a turntable with the gold increase rate, from 950% to 1050%. But you can rest assured that there are only 4 of this type of treasure chest in POE 2, so you only need to spend gold four times (up to 255,875).
After you open it, you will be surprised to find that most of the rewards are provided to you in Ventor’s Gamble, such as Scroll of Wisdom, Orb of Augmentation, Level 20 Skill Gems, Perfect Jeweler’s Orbs and even dozens of POE 2 Divine Orbs.
It should be noted here that the rewards and the amount of gold coins spent in this Strongbox are completely random, so this does not mean that the more gold coins you spend, the better your rewards will be, but it is worth affirming that it will definitely cost less than gambling.
This Strongbox is guarded by a group of monsters called aberrations of chaos. They usually appear in the form of waves, about 30-40 waves, and you can only open it if you clear them all, which is basically the same as the operation of a regular safe.
Among them, there will be a Corrupted Unique item, in which the corruption will always exist in the form of Enchantment, which means that you cannot add affixes or slots to you. It is important to note that some exclusive unique items that only drop after you defeat the boss cannot be found here.
This is probably one of the easiest Strongboxes to find in the game, as you can clearly see a monster’s corpse on top of the strongbox. After you open it, the monster will revive 3-6 times and drop some loot corresponding to its level and stats after you defeat it.
Note that this monster gains some additional modifiers each time it resurrects, so your combat strategy will need to change accordingly to ensure that you can complete the challenge of its last resurrection in one go and get the best rewards from it.
Additionally, all the bonus items you can get are dropped from this monster, so if you want higher value and quality loot, it is recommended that you use Waystones that increase the amount or quality of loot on the map node containing Ogham’s Legacy Large Strongbox, but this monster will also become more difficult to deal with.

It is guarded by some Festival Beetles and the small monsters it summons, which look similar to the large beetles in Act 2 The Lost City. They will shoot red lightning in the area around them and deal high damage to players in melee range.
According to the discussion in the player community about opening this treasure chest, you may have an easier time choosing classes that support ranged combat, such as Mercenary, Witch, and the newly added Huntress.
After you kill them all and open the strongbox, you will see that there are 5-7 Jewels in it, which will increase the rarity of your gear by 50% when equipped. Also note that items such as Against the Darkness that can only be obtained from boss loot will not appear in the loot table of this strongbox.
If you want to increase their frequency of appearing on the map, you can focus on activating the nodes in the lower left corner of Atlas’ passive skill tree. In addition, if you encounter a Strongbox but are not sure what it is, you can use Scroll of Wisdom to identify it before activating it, so that you can farm the items in it more strategically.
The above are the types of Unique Strongboxes currently included in POE 2 Dawn of the Hunt league and their specific effects. I hope they can bring more surprises into your POE 2 exploration process and make it easier for you to get the rewards you want. I wish you a happy game!
I believe that when POE 2 patch 0.2.0 was first released, you must have been overwhelmed by the rich new content and didn’t know where to start to experience and familiarize yourself with it. Both the new class and the new endgame mechanism are attractive and complex.
Therefore, in order to ensure that you have enough POE 2 Currency in the game as a rich material basis for trying new classes or endgames, fighting new enemy types may be a better idea! At least according to the known information, the mechanism of these encounter enemies is not difficult to understand, and the loot they can provide is also precious. These enemies are Azmerian Wisps and Rogue Exiles.
In fact, strictly speaking, Azmerian Wisps cannot be regarded as an enemy you can fight directly with. They appear as small balls of light in the game. When you get close to them, they will start to run away. During this time, they will continue to attract nearby monsters. If the monsters touch Azmerian Wisps in a certain way, they will give the monsters a buff effect.
If Azmerian Wisps affect rare and unique monsters, they will also possess them, not only making the monsters more powerful, but also allowing the monsters to periodically summon spirit animals of the same type to attack you together.
The reason you are recommended to trigger Azmerian Wisps as much as possible to start related battles is that the monsters possessed by them will drop better loot than usual after death, including a small probability of amulets of the same type. However, these monsters will also be more difficult to deal with, so you’d better buy POE 2 Currency in advance to roll better affix effects for your gear.
Fortunately, you don’t need to farm specifically in a specific area to find these creatures. They will appear randomly in most maps throughout the campaign, and the relevant NPC Delwyn will also help you track them. If you want to increase the chance of Azmerian Wisps appearing so you can get more loot in a short period, here are some tips to help:
Sacred Wisps are actually special Azmerian Wisps that can apply more unique effects to the monsters they affect. For example, Sacred Wisp of the Cunning Fox can upgrade normal monsters to magic monsters, magic monsters to rare monsters, and rare monsters to unique bosses - of course, as the rarity of the monsters increases, the loot you can get from them will also be better.
As the name of the game Path of Exile indicates, you, as a player, are actually an “exile”. After surviving the execution, you are always committed to using your own strength to defeat the evil forces and protect the justice and peace you cherish. So, have you ever thought that there may be a group of people with the same origin as you in the game? (Of course, this does not refer to other real players)
Whether you have thought about it or not, the development team of POE 2 has grasped this point and launched new endgame enemies Rogue Exiles in Dawn of the Hunt! They are the same as you, and even have the same skills, unique items and builds, but the only and dangerous difference is that they belong to your enemy camp.
Path of Exile 2 has a total of 12 Rogue Exiles, each with its own exclusive skills and items. When you encounter them and start a skirmish, the bottom of their health bar will show the unique items they are equipped with. You can decide whether to fight or avoid them based on your items and builds. After all, if the opponent is too strong, a rash challenge may cause losses.
But if you choose to fight, you will find that Rogue Exiles uses a very advanced and flexible movement mechanism, and can even dodge and roll while attacking you, just like you usually do in a skirmish. Considering that POE 2’s own PVP gameplay is not outstanding, you can completely think that the current Rogue Exiles skirmish is a better POE 2 PVP mode.
Unlike Azmerian Wisps, Rogue Exiles only appear in the endgame, so if you want to challenge them, you need to complete Act 1-3 first, and then complete them again in Cruel mode. After that, Rogue Exiles will be randomly generated in each endgame map. There is currently no way to increase the probability of their appearance. All you can do is walk around every corner of the map. As for the loot after killing Rogue Exiles, first of all, fortunately they will drop for sure, but you can’t be sure whether you will get magic gear or rare unique items in the end.
After our introduction, you should already know how to find and deal with these new enemy types. If your character level is strong enough to deal with them, try it out!
