[Top 5] Path of Exile Best Farming Builds That Are Excellent!

Blasting through maps has always been the best way to farm currency and items in PoE and these builds are one of the best to clear map after map and generate tons of currency!

5 – Devon’s Blooming Flicker Raider

Flicker Strike being used in Dried Lake

This isn’t the first time this build shows up in my rankings and it’s for a good reason. This one simply does it all. It’s quick, reliable, perfect for Scourge League’s mechanic and it’s amazing to play!

What Devon’s Blooming Flicker Excels In:

  • Good League Starter;
  • Fantastic Clearing/Farming;
  • A bit over 3~5 million DPS with everything active;
  • Extremely Tanky.

Devon’s Blooming Flicker full details:

  • Flicker works by consuming Frenzy Charges to deliver a powerful hit as well as teleporting you to the target, and we stack both Frenzy Charges (which amps up our damage and Flicker’s inherent damage) as well as Frenzy Charge Generation, using Raider’s 20% on hit, the Body Armour’s 10% chance on hit, and the Frenzy gem itself, proving us with a 50% chance to gain a Frenzy on Hit, and then with Multistrike, that gets up to 87,5%.
  • You will need Ryslatha’s Coil to further boost your physical damage, combined with impales and quick proccing. This build is also a great bossing killer with proper investment, but even possible to do it with a Terminus Est. Focus on getting a high DPS Exquisite Blade.
  • Tanky with full Spell Suppression, high evasion chance, respectable life pool, great sustain with life regeneration, life leech and Fortify to top it off.

4 – Peak Performance Ice Shot Deadeye

Ice Shot with Voidshot

One of the best bow builds in the game because of its fantastic clearing, combined with a respectable single target, makes for this build a fantastic all-rounder build.

What the Peak Performance Ice Shot Deadeye Excels In:

  • Absurdly fast clearing;
  • Good Single Target Damage;
  • Easy to play;
  • Great to Magic find.

Peak Performance Ice Shot Deadeye full details:

  • In the bossing setup, we use Aspect of the Crab, Spell Suppression, Deadeye’s defensiveness, and for damage Voidfletcher’s Voidshots, cone overlaps and using Tornado as a secondary skill to further boost the damage;
  • For MF-ing, you’ll want to farm lower tier maps, as the Quantity gear is very subpar, but the clearing remains fantastic, with every arrow chaining around corners and killing everything miles away from you, and freezing the scarier mobs, so they can’t hit you;
  • We use Hydrosphere combined with Tornado to chain multiple times each arrow, and the cone overlaps everything, as well as Tornado giving out reflect damage in a similar manner to Impale, but for any projectile.

3 – Fuzzy Duckzy’s Lightning Strike Raider

Lightning Strike against The Shaper

VLS and Lightning Strike burst back into the flavor of the month skill since Ultimatum’s 3.14, and have maintained that popularity since. This one is the Raider variant and the speedier version of the build, unlike the slower but harder-hitting Berserker.

What the Fuzzy Duckzy’s LS Raider Excels in:

  • Fairly Tanky;
  • Screen Wide clear;
  • Respectable single Target damage;
  • SSF and League Start viable.

Fuzz Duckzy’s LS Raider full details:

  • You will need Pierce nodes on the tree until you get it in your gear. Everything you use can be crafted and there are no required uniques. The build makes use of Trinity Support, so you will need to deal damage with at least two elements, and ideally, all three.
  • There’s a specific rotation of skills while fighting against bosses, so you can deal maximum burst damage. You drop your Ancestor Protector Totem, then Vaal Warchief Totem, then the two charges of Vaal Lightning Strike, and then finally you hit with LS.
  • Positioning is key to dealing the most damage possible with LS. You need to be close enough to the boss so the melee part of the damage hits, as well as being far enough away so that the projectiles hit as well.

2 – Memoria’s Herald of Thunder Autobomber Assassin

Herald of Thunder and Inpulsa's Explosions

This is the archetypal 0-click build. All you have to do is proc a single shock, and the build carries your damage out for you, wreaking havoc against your enemies just by getting near you.

What Memoria’s HoT Autobomber Assassin Excels in:

  • Insane clear speed;
  • Inpulsa’s explosions;
  • Single Target is respectable as an Autobomber.

Memoria’s Herald of Thunder Autobomber Assassin full details:

  • You have a couple of variants. You can go with the buffed Crest of Desire to buff up your HoT in your helm as well as using a +2/+3 Skill Gems Level Staff to further increase the HoT level.
  • The build makes use of Storm’s Secret unique ring to auto-proc HoT, Choir of the Storm, for extra damage and critical strike chance, Inpulsa’s Broken Heart body armor for the explosions, and Algor Mortis for even more single target damage.
  • The build is fairly squishy, but the clearing is almost instantaneous, and the chain effect of Inpulsa will carry you in maps.

1 – KB/PS Int Stack Wander King Assassin

Celestial Kinectic Blast MTX in Incursion Room

This is for the rich folk, the 1% of the 1%. Even the bar of entry can be upwards of 20 Exalted orbs. The upside is probably the best farming build of all time and only getting better and better after each patch.

What the KB/PS Int Stack Wander King Excels in:

  • Over 18,000 Energy Shield;
  • More than 20 million DPS;
  • Melts bosses in seconds;
  • Can facetank most things;
  • Clear instantly multiple screens.

Kinect Blast/Power Siphon Int Stack Wander King full details:

  • This build makes use of the Shaper or Hunter mod on Wands that adds lightning damage per 10 intelligence, which we scale to have over 2000, giving us a lot of flat damage as well as tons of Energy Shield;
  • The crafting is extremely expensive and you need certain items before even thinking about starting this build. It has the benefit of being simple to use and there’s no need to gem-swap or activate any supplemental damage boosters. You hit and they die;
  • The more Int and ES you stack in your gear, the stronger you will be, both offensively and defensively, and the passive tree reflects that. It’s now very easy to become ailment immune, as well as getting some evasion on flasks and auras to further boost that huge life pool and spell suppression.
