The Unmissable Unique Tempest Rising For Melee Bleed Build In POE 3.24 Necropolis League!

Apr 11, 2024

Path of Exile 3.24 Necropolis adds many new unique items to the core game, one of which is Tempest Rising. This is a fun addition to the game that will provide much-needed utility for Melee and Bleed Summon Reaper builds.

In this guide, we’re going to talk about everything you need to know about this new unique boots Tempest Rising and discuss whether this unique one is worth trying. Let’s get started now!

Unmissable Unique Tempest Rising For Melee Bleed Build In POE 3.24 Necropolis League!

Tempest Rising Explained

Tempest Rising is a new unique item that currently only drops from Uber Sirus encounters. The theme is around Damaging Ailments and is specifically for Bleed builds. Also, it not only increases your armor by 80%-120% but also provides a 30% movement speed increase.

But what makes you want to use these unique boots the most is the last three modifiers. First, it extends the enemy’s Duration of Ailments by 5%-25%. Second, Damaging Ailments deal damage 5%-25% faster. Third, you and your nearby enemies count as movement while affected by Elemental Ailments.

These fairly large roll ranges mean you can get the ideal damage buff by investing in POE Currency.

The first two of these three modifiers are fairly standard ailment scaling modifiers. Poisons especially benefit from the extended duration, while faster Damaging Ailments are quite common.

However, the last modifier here is for Bleeding Ailment. While Elemental Ailments affect you, you and any enemies within your presence count as movement.

However, Bleeding has a special conditional damage increase that depends on whether the bleeding entity is moving. As long as the target is stationary, baseline bleed deals damage per second equal to 70% of the base physical damage dealt. However, when the target moves, the bleed damage is tripled, dealing 210% of base physical damage per second.

How To Scale Bleed Damage?

Crimson Dance is a Keystone that removes the condition for increased bleed damage while moving and also halves bleed damage. But it allows you to use eight bleed stacks that deal damage simultaneously, instead of just one stack.

So if you want to scale bleeding with a faster ailment application, you can use this Keystone as an option.

But if you don’t want to interact with the moving mechanic and want to use a bow to cause bleeding, Ensnaring Arrow is a good choice. It applies a debuff to the target, treating it as movement.

Therefore, Bleed Bow builds can choose to use Ensnaring Arrow skill for maximum damage output against a single target.

What Builds Is Tempest Rising Available For?

However, the melee-built Ensnaring Arrow debuff does not count the target as movement. Therefore, those Non-Crimson Dance builds must rely on swapping weapons for bows to use Ensnaring Arrow in order to achieve maximum damage output. It’s not a very enjoyable play style, but at least it’s a new option for applying to Tempest Rising.

As such, Tempest Rising will primarily appeal to two build archetypes: first, the previously mentioned Non-Crimson Dance Melee Bleed build, and second, Summon Reaper build. Because they don’t want to use a bow, they have more freedom with their gear.

How To Apply Elemental Ailments?

But since you’re no longer forced to use a bow to benefit from Tempest Rising’s movement mechanics, Elemental Ailments must affect the target. This seems a bit counter-intuitive, since you need to apply Elemental Ailments on a build that is entirely focused on physical damage.

However, you can apply Elemental Ailments fairly simply in a number of ways.

Among them, Summon Skitterbots is a reservation skill that can summon two Skitterbots around you, a Chilling Skitterbot, and a Shocking Skitterbot.

These Skitterbots will target nearby enemies moving towards them and apply chill and shock to the surrounding area. This causes 10% of the base chill and 15% of the base shock damage, which can be increased via gem levels or linked support gems.

Also worth mentioning here is Profane Proxy, a unique ring that will replace Chilling Skitterbot or Shocking Skitterbot depending on the ring slot it’s in. That Skitterbot will then apply a socketed curse to the surrounding area.

This means that not only can you still utilize Skitterbot to apply Elemental Ailments of your choice to benefit from Tempest Rising mechanic, but you can also apply full-effect Curses.

Is Tempest Rising Worth Trying?

In POE 3.24, Tempest Rising is an exclusive drop from Uber Sirus. But in Trade League, this loot setup doesn’t make much sense to us. Because one of the common drops from this boss is still Uber Uniques, and all the strongest builds will feature the rarest unique items.

And you’re less likely to spend time farming Uber Boss just to drop a pair of boots you don’t really want to wear. So it doesn’t make much sense in the current loot levels.

However, this does not prevent it from being a powerful item that can be used in a Melee Bleed build. What do you think of this Tempest Rising? See you next time!
