Hey guys, I just wanted to post up a Full POE 3.1 Duelist Build guide for all Duelist players. This guide contains tree Ascendancy Classes of Duelist, they are Gladiator, Champion and Slayer. We use sunder for mapping/clearing base content, and transition to cleave to deal with tougher boss encounters through the use of permanent fortify using the Overwhelming Odds jewel. R4PG Path of Exile Christmas Event 2017 will be unwrapped on Monday, December 16. On the same day at 8AM GMT, there will be big sale for cheap poe currency on our site. It must be fate.

1. Duelist Gladiator

Basically we are designed for all guardians with little issues (Barring some absurd mods), it is not well suited for farming guardians due to how lengthy it requires. You are best farming maps/lab. This build is excellent like a league starter, or like a character that may scale to accomplish all content generally. It is extremely flexible.

Duelist Gladiator Skill Tree

Skill Tree: https://goo.gl/aEVZD1

Pros:

- Very tangy with 74–78% spell/attack block. Running at ~15k armor with no flasks. ~35k with 1 jade flask of reflexes or granite flask of iron skin.

- Great league starter/currency player for maps/lab.

- SafeOrflexible build that you rarely end up feeling near to dying

- Inexpensive build, uses Bringer of Rain so no requirement for chest armor. (Beginning gear is ~10c)

- 90% phys minimization fully flasked, ~80% running only basalt or granite flask. Laugh at something that does physical damage.

- Insane damage reduction (Enfeeble to lessen enemy damage by 21–25%, Fortify to help reduce by another 20%, and 5–6 endurance charges for an additional 20–24% phys minimization stacking on the top of armour basalt + pantheon + arctic armour).

- 5 endurance charges (6 if you choose to purchase a corrupted belt).

- Extremely fast map obvious (Less quick as vaal power siphon, although not restricted by map layouts like VPS and WAY tanker).

- Easy lab player

- Hardcore viable

Cons:

- Slow boss killer, reduced ceiling for DPS when compared with another builds, but nonetheless safe.

- Not ideal for shaper or uber atziri. I’d say shaper is suicide since the lower DPS cannot save Zana in the adds/bullet hell before you acquire some really costly gear to boost DPS, and uber atziri is doable however a huge challenge for your mechanics.

- Low chaos resistance. I ran my character through everything with -60 chaos resistance. This isn’t as big of the deal as you may think as lengthy as you are conscious and do not stand it caustic clouds and browse strongboxes.

- Cannot tank big elemental hits due to low eHP (Things like phoenix’s explosion or dominus’ donkey punch).

- Have to be a lot more careful on phys map bosses folded with double ele mods i.e. extra damage as lightning extra damage as fire.

2. Duelist Champion

Make reference to the road of creating link to determine what gear/gems you need to use now rather. The aim of this build is to produce a cheap, easy and effective uber lab player. This can be a monkey maker build.

Strengths:

- Beginner and new league “friendly” — the build really is easy in design and execution.

- Affordable. No unique are needed to begin with this build. You can purchase them while you earn

them, while just putting on rare gear rather.

- Fast and easy to level.

- Very tanky.

- Permanent Fortify & Onslaught.

- High existence regen, making labyrinth traps simpler to cope with.

- Your totems can taunt, making bosses significantly less harmful.

- Decent obvious speed in the high tier maps.

- Great for farming Uber lab, Atziri & Guardians. Shaper is doable too if you are using the costly version.

- You are able to play this build whether or not you participate in the hardcore or softcore league.

Weaknesses:

- Your totems will destroy on their own physical reflect maps.

- Many people don’t benefit from the “totem playstyle”

3. Duelist Slayer

For clearing, this can use 3 skills (become bored if have fun with only one skill) Tornado shot, Ice shot, and Lightning Arrow. Barrage is perfect for bosses/rares. Because of fast leech speed, I could facetank Act 10 Kitava with Barrage + Lioneye’s glare at lvl 68~ with 3k life, no problems. Even outleeched his fire breath

Duelist Slayer Skill Tree

Pros:

- stun immunity (that is very good for ranged Point blank)

- bleed immunity (case annoying)

- unending leech (only a QoL for Bloodstream rage you should use Damage around the full life support)

- 20% cull

- Permanent onslaught while mapping

- Quick access to VP + 100% elevated existence leech speed

Cons:

- leveling until 66 is difficult as phys bow (without twink gear)

- lioneyes Fall is kinda costly

When just beginning for this game, I imagined of just high DPS, but after a number of deaths, I realized which i require a build to undergo every map with no great difficulties, and that i thought it was. Hope lots of people love this particular build.

What is more, as the Path of Exile 3.1 Abyss League is heading on the way now, we have owned the ability to allow you to buy path of exile currency on R4PG.com. And the POE 3.1 Abyss version is very easy to use and convenient.
