I've been theory crafting an arc build with poet's pen. Arc is amazing for clear speed with inpulsa's. Boss is done by swapping in southbound gloves + writhing jar flask for 4x damage on the boss. This requires helm enchant and lvl 21 gem to get additional 4 chains. Otherwise its about 2.66x damage and increases by.33 each arc you gain. +(30-50) to maximum ManaTukohama, Tawhoa and Kitava went to the lake to fish. Tawhoa weaved a net to catch the fish, Tukohama built a fire to cook the fish, and Kitava swallowed the entire lake, fish and all, with a single gulp. Will cast all socketed spells on trigger, but will only cast one of each unique spell.

| Guide notes |
| March 12, 2018 -Updated Skill Trees to Patch 3.2 -As of Patch 3.2, this build is no longer supported. Berserker class is no longer viable choice for any spellcaster build. Check our Violate Dead Inquisitor for the most up to date variation of this build |
This is probably one of the most satisfying builds in the game. New unique added in patch 3.1, The Poet’s Pen allows you to play this crazy build, sending Fire Balls all over the screen. Having your gem setups in both wands allows you to wear Kaom’s Heart, which combined with Mind over Matter makes it very tanky build as well. The main idea is to use an attack skill, which triggers gems socketed in The Poet’s Pen wands, casting three skills at once.

1. Gameplay
Poet's Pen Volatile Dead Berserker is a ranged build, which will do most of the work for you. You are running around, attack with Frenzy skill and skills triggered from Poet’s Pen will clear the screen by themselves. It’s very relaxing build to play because you don’t need to aim at monsters and really high life pool combined with Mind over Matter will make you really tanky.

It’s probably one of the easiest and fastest leveling builds in the games. You can use your endgame weapons since level 12, so you don’t have to worry about changing equipment every few levels. You will also notice a huge damage increase every 25 levels thanks to Poet’s Pen increasing level of socketed gems.

5. Gear Setup
Poet's Pen Volatile Dead Berserker is a budget and beginner-friendly build. It does not require more than 4 sockets in any of the gear and does not lose any of the core DPS. Your main weapons have only 3 linked sockets, and all the other gear is used for utility and defensive gem setups. This makes this build extremely easy to gear up, and at the same time, it scales well with end-game high spell damage gear.
In this spot, we are also delighted to invite you to our PoE Currency marketplace, where you can buy cheap orbs and unique items. Tamed dino melee dmg per stat ark game.
