Path of Exile Gems PoE Builds, PoE Currency guide and other guides
Intro & build description
This is very generic Arc build which will use new skill introduced in 3.0 – Storm Burst for single target damage. Arc was played quite rarely because of its lacking single target damage, but now that problem will be solved. We choose Necromancer because of the fact that Offering Skills will affect us as well which is very strong for the build.
Build Pros
- Extremely cheap, can easily work with items found only by yourself
- Fast clear
- Great league starter build
Build Cons
- Reflect might be a problem without life leech

Body Armour
Vaal RegaliaLook for Energy shield / Armour+Energy shield chest piece for easier socket coloring.

Left Ring
Opal RIngIdeally look for 2x Opal Rings (Other bases will work as well) with maximum life, some resistances and mana regen rate. Cast Speed is nice bonus.

Jewel
Jewel SetupOn jewels look for following stats:
1.) Increased maximum life
2.) Increased spell damage while holding a staff
3.) Increased Spell damage
4.) Attributes / Resistances if you are lacking
Flask
Flask SetupOptimal flask setup for the build:
1.) Eternal life flask with freeze removal
2.) Quicksilver flask with extra movement speed and duration
3.) Topaz Flask with shock removal
4.) Atziri’s Promise
5.) Basalt Flask of Iron Skin
Can u do uber lab and sharper with this build?
Eternal lab should be easy. Hard to say about Shaper – maybe it’s doable but definitely not the best build for it.
Any particular order i should link stormburst? because my arc does more dmg than stormburst single target
Try to get Concentrated Effect, Controlled Destruction and Greater Multiple Projectiles first. For this you should really try to get at least a 5-link though.
