If it clears all content it works!


At this point in PoE's life cycle, you can clear all content with lightning warp or leap slam. So it's not saying much.

What exactly is your point though?

Mine was that pure phys is still viable because it can clear all content, if leap slam can clear all content then why is that not viable?

My point is calling something "viable" doesn't mean anything. Everything can clear all content.

Viable.....means capable of working successfully.

If pure phys does that, then it's viable....are you insane?

Sure but all I said was that it works, if you want insane clear and Uber Elder insert Ele hit Scion and profit.

I just said it was a viable build meaning that it works

If nothing can fail at something, what is the point of calling something viable?

It's like if you said that lifting 10 lbs made you a strong man. But a toddler can lift 10 lbs, so can you really call yourself a strong man with that low of a benchmark?

I get what you're trying to say, don't get me wrong. I just find it pointless to call anything viable lately.

I mean here's the reality the game has a META and it feels like if you aren't clearing a map every 90 seconds your build is bad so I get that, but I'm just saying if OP is having fun with pure phys and it's working then it's viable.

It's successful in both important categories for him. It's fun and it works.


your example is a benchmark standard set for yourself not someone else setting the standard for you to meet.

We don't dictate how hard/easy PoE is but if you find a build that can clear it then yes it's viable.
