Three Important Lacerate Builds in PoE 3.5 Betrayal | Poeguide (2024)

1. PoE 3.5 Elder Bleed Gladiator ft. Blasphemer's Grasp Builds

One of several very best issues about this creature is the fact that we can inflict bleed damage by using Shield Charge and we can melt the thrash by shield charging the entire map.

Added Harm output & Survivability Options
- 20% increased maximum mana coming from Elder helm which supports "Mind Over Matter" utilization to the full
- Fortify support on Elder boots together with increased totem damage which works perfectly with our Ancestral Protector gem set-up
- "+# Life/Mana gained for each enemy hit" coming from Elder rings
- "Recovery of 6% of maximum life on kill" coming from Elder body armour makes us nearly invulnerable
- Increased harm output coming from Elder Body armour's "+1 level to socketed support gems".
- Additional block chance coming from elder shields as compared to regular shields in the game
- Increased survivability coming from "+% increased maximum life" which can be rolled in several different elder items such as body armours, shields & belts
- Melee Physical Damage / Brutality / Ruthless support on weapons which are supporting our Shield Charge inflicting more bleed harm
- "% increased area of effect" coming from Elder helms & shields
- "100% reduced Vulnerability mana reservation" co
- "X% increased harm with bleeding": We are preferably looking for 24%+ increased harm w.ith bleeding
- "% increased able.eding duration."
- "% increased area of effect"
- "Hits with this weapon have culling strike against bleeding enemies".

Skills having comparably high AOE such as Sunder & Reave is perfectly ok to use but keep in mind that Lacerate "slashes twice" & "enemies in the middle of slashes can be hit by both slashes." So Lacerate skill doubles the bleed harm inflicted with right positioning. Please also keep in mind that Reave does not work with axes. So, if you decide to play Reave, ax nodes in the skill tree need to be replaced with sword nodes.

Pros & Cons:

+ Relatively fast clearing speed (not the fastest out there)
+ Having the option to experience a rare skill in POE meta: Lacerate
+ Insane survivability
+ Reflect harm proof make
+ Ability to run all map modes
+ Ability to run T14-15 corrupted maps
- Relatively long end game boss fights
- Being in need of going back in the map to collect loot for we inflict bleed and move forward while mobs' lives are drained & they finally die

Bandits: Kill'em'all and get two more passive skills

Ascendancy:
In the following order:
- Blood in the Eyes
- Gratuitous Violence
- Painforged
- Versatile Combatant

Gems Link:
Lacerate Set-up
Lacerate can overlap & each strike inflicts harm
Lacerate - Faster Attacks - Deadly Ailments - Brutality - Melee Physical Harm - Chance to Bleed

Defensive Set-up
1) Arctic Armour - Blind Support - Riposte - Life Gain on Hit Support
2) Cast when Damage Taken - Molten Shell - Increased Duration - Immortal Call

Movement Set-up
Depending on your taste/maps you can swap in between these two gems. My personal choice is Shield Charge for I can Shield Charge the entire map to inflict bleed damage and melt thrash mobs.
Leap Slam/Shield Charge - Faster Attacks - Fortify

Totem Set-up
Ancestral Protector - Melee Physical Harm - Maim - Brutality

Curse Set-up
Blasphemy - Vulnerability - Tempest Shield

2. PoE 3.5 Tybbber's Scion Slayer/Inquisitor Lacerate Builds

This is a build for a Scion, with the combo of Inquisitor and Slayer. We use Lacerate for everything, clear and single target. The predominant goal was making a good Uber Elder farmer, thanks to the slayer's leech.
The DPS is around 2.3M with my current setup and can reach way more if you invest heavily into it, which I deemed completely unnecessary since it destroyed the whole content already. If anything, investing in more defenses would be an interesting option, see below to see what can be done.

Pros & Cons:
+ Fast clear speed.
+ Extremely fun.
+ Insane damage on bosses.
+ Incredibly safe vs. Uber Elder
+ Viable for all of the content.
+ Can start cheap and scale well with each upgrade.
- Leveling as a starter is a pain. The normal lab is useless, points early in the tree don't help at all.
- DPS even with good gear won't go higher than an insane Phys scaling build with mirror worthy 1hand/offhand.

Bandits:
Help Alira. The critical multiplier, resistances, and mana regeneration at the beginning is nice. It's the best one you can get.

Pantheon:
Major: Soul of the Brine King
Minor: Soul of Ralakesh, Reduce the damage we take from the Elder degen ground, helps slightly.

Leveling Links:
If it's not your first character of the league, buying a few specific uniqueness makes for a sweet and really fast leveling experience :
Gloves: Locational Caress/Tomb first.
Helmet: Goldrim
Chest: Tabula
1hand: Fidelitas spike x2 or Ewar's mirage x2. Would recommend Ewar.
Amulet: Karui's Ward into Sacrificial Heart.
Belt: Darkness Enthroned with good abyssal jewels / or Prismweave
Boots: Wanderlust/Seven league steps
Rings: Elron's rings until you get mana leech then anything to cap res/life/flat dmg

Having good abyssal jewels helps a lot your leveling experience. Try to get some as you level up for 1c on Poetrade.

Links would be the same as the late game setup, with added cold instead of the chest link.
Grab three heralds at act 2, and swap herald of thunder and ice for Anger at act 3.
Blood Rage is nice for the attack speed and frenzy charges.

Bandits:2 Skill points, Kill all.

Ascendancy:
Three Important Lacerate Builds in PoE 3.5 Betrayal | Poeguide (4)

1. The huge chunk of overkill damage leeched as life. This means if you hit a 10k life enemy for 100k damage, you get like 18k of that as leech! Oh also bleed immunity cause lul why not.

2. The True Source of a Slayer's power. Life Leech Effects are NOT REMOVED at Full Life. That translates into all that delicious maximum life leech rate we're stacking on the tree, and our Elder amulet is becoming a ridiculously powerful life pot that lasts 30 seconds, even if we're at full life. IT'S JUST ALWAYS ON, ALL THE TIME.
3. More damage? More aoe? Immunity to Phys Reflect? OK
4. Infinite onslaught oh and 20% cull, That's like 21% more damage we don't have to deal on bosses. Instantly cull shaper, Guardians, Izaro, Uber Aztiri, Whatever off with their heads!
