This time the release date has been delayed and to fill the hole that was created due to the rescheduling of the new league we have events.
PoE Mayhem Builds
#1 Poisonous Concoction
Poisonous Concoction is a very tricky skill to play. Normally you would need a weapon that boosts your skill to do massive damage but in this case, you are literally forbidden to equip a weapon, because the skill won't be able to cast. This skill scales with a life flask which you need to have. It is a very strong mapper.
Pros of the build:
- Simple leveling
- Cheap to make all content
- Pretty tanky for a ranger
- No need to activate flasks, it works automatically
- Nice single-target damage
- Comfortable to play
Cons of the build:
- Poison playstyle (not for everyone)
- Survivability in the early stages is not as good as it sounds (needs gear upgrades)
- Fully automatic flasks need some investments
- No weapon means 3 less sockets
#2 Cold Blade Vortex
Blade Vortex creates blades that whirl around you and deal damage to nearby enemies. The more blades the better the damage. You cast one blade at a time and have up to ten blades at once. There are support gems that help you to cast it faster or more at once so it can scale pretty strongly.
This particular version of the build allows you to freeze enemies and explode them which helps with mapping.
Pros of the build:
- Fast mapper
- Decent single target
- Can scale to enormous amounts of damage
- Immunity to freeze
Cons of the build:
- Needs some investment to freeze most of the bosses
- Not the best tankiness

#3 Righteous Fire
Righteous Fire is a skill that puts you in the flames and creates a circle around you that deals to you and enemies within reach damage equivalent to % of your health points. You will need a lot of life regeneration in your gear and skill tree.
This build is going to be hard for first-timers so I recommend checking other options for PoE Mayhem Builds before playing it.
Pros of the build:
- Very decent mapper
- Nice single-target damage
- Has room to upgrade
- Immunity to ailments
- Tanky
Cons of the build:
- Walking simulator
- Upgrading can be expensive
- Actually in meta so items can be quite expensive
Basically everything about Righteous Fire
#4 Vortex
Vortex is a skill that creates a cold circle at your feet and stays for a while. It deals damage to enemies and you are safe from it. Not the easiest build to play so I recommend having a little experience before trying this build.
Pros of the build:
- Tanky
- Decent single target
- One button play
- Decent early damage
- Immunity to chaos damage
Cons of the build:
- Can be expensive with upgrades
- Walking simulator
- Not the fastest mapper
- Damage over time playstyle
Endgame PoB (Probably not needed for Mayhem)
#5 Ballista Explosive Arrow
Last but not least we have an Explosive Arrow. This build is probably the best all-round build on Path of Exile. This skill has a lot of damage you can easily scale.
Pros of the build:
- Good Damage
- Decent map clear speed
- Awesome single target
- Pretty tanky
- Simple gameplay
- Totem gameplay
Cons of the build:
- Totem gameplay
- In the begging, it can feel weird with the delay of the damage
And that's all about the PoE Mayhem Builds. You can go and try it before Mayhem starts. Stay good, exile.
