The first two are the threshold jewels that I mentioned. Items Required Uniquesīefore we get too far into the guide, there are a few uniques you will want to purchase regardless of what variant you are going. This works, and means that Elemental Hit is essentially scaling as a spell with tripled values, for the cost of a few uniques. This is an important distinction, because this build revolves around using two of the jewels to force Elemental Hit to always choose Fire, and then converting all of the other damage from the other elements to Fire damage. When Elemental Hit ‘chooses’ an element, the other two elements’ stats are not removed, it’s just that the attack itself deals 0 damage from the other types. Here’s where it gets a bit confusing, and the reason it’s so broken. Seriously though, all three of those lines of damage can be applied to a single cast. However, the new jewels that they introduced say “Elemental Hit cannot choose X element,” with one for each element. The whole gimmick with Elemental Hit is that it has all three elements built into it (and scaling from levels), then chooses one of the elements at random when you use it, dealing no damage of the other types. This in itself isn’t inherently broken, but the way that they scale it is.Įlemental Hit scales triple what every spell does. Elemental Hit, even though it acts like an attack, scales like a spell. Basically, spells give flat bonus damage per level which is scaled by your gear, while attacks scale your weapon’s base damage. If you’ve looked into Path of Exile’s scaling you’ll understand that spells scale off of gem level, while attacks scale off of your weapon’s stats. It’s an incredibly strong build with several variations, which I will go over in hopes that you too can appreciate the wonder that is Elemental Hit! Why is Elemental Hit so Broken? While you can sink a ton of currency into the character, you certainly don’t have to. I myself have given into the hype and tried out the different variants of Elemental Hit.Īcross the board, my biggest takeaway is quite simple: Elemental Hit is broken beyond belief. They released two new threshold jewels for the build that took it from ‘barely playable’ to ‘the most overpowered build under the sun’.
