Path of Exile

Advanced Mjölner Archmage Hierophant build made for patch 3.24 Necropolis League!

You will receive all the gear and gems to be able to play this Path of Exile build. The character itself is not included!

This is a ​Hierophant's build that uses Mjölner to automatically trigger Spells with very high Mana Pool to massively boost its DPS! Mjölner is a legendary mace with one of the most effective trigger mechanics. Whenever you hit enemies, it launches the socketed lightning spells!

The most powerful Hierophant Ascendancies are based on Mana, which is used to achieve truly incredible damage due to the Archmage Support. It adds Lightning damage to our main Spell - Ball Lightning of Orbiting, based on your unreserved Mana. All Auras are reserved by Life, so the build simultaneously receives bonuses to spell damage from Pain Attunement and maximum bonus to Lightning Damage from the Archmage.

By socketing Gems inside of Mjölner and The Squire, we get a 6-Linked Ball Lightning, that automatically triggers up to 4 times per second! Most of the clear comes from the Shock Nova setup, triggered from Cast While Channeling Support and Cyclone. It has enough power to kill most enemies and inflict high-effect shocks, so the Ball Lightning can finish them off quickly.

Defenses are solid - impressive Mana and ES Pool, high Elemental Resistances, Immunity to Curses and most of Ailments with amazing Mana and ES leech. Due to the Ivory Tower and Coruscating Elixir, all Chaos damage is absorbed by Mana and ES. The effect of the Arcane Cloak is equal to 65% of the maximum mana, which gives a huge bonus to damage and protects from incoming damage. Indigon pairs well with fast mana spending, increasing your spell damage the more mana you spend.

This build has a very simple playstyle with top-tier clearing speed and very high damage against bosses, tons of ES and Mana with Arcane Cloak and great Recovery!
