Mmoexp Path of exile currency: Defensive Considerations

6. Defensive Considerations
CoC builds tend to be glass cannons if not built carefully. Because you’ll be diving into enemies constantly to trigger attacks, you need defense:

Spell Suppression – Great for hybrid spell builds.

Armor + Evasion Hybrid Gear – Ensures a mix of Path of exile currency mitigation and dodge.

Life Leech – Sustains you on-hit; use supports like Life Gain on Hit.

Block/Dodge Mechanics – Especially useful if using shield-based setups.

7. Ascendancy and Passive Tree Synergy
Ascendancies that shine with CoC builds include:

Assassin – Massive crit scaling, Power Charge generation, and poison synergies.

Inquisitor – For elemental CoC builds, especially due to “Inevitable Judgement” which ignores enemy resistances on crit.

Deadeye – Projectile-based CoC builds benefit from Deadeye’s chain, pierce, and crit buffs.

Elementalist – For spell-based elemental CoC setups using golem or POE currency for sale shock synergies.

Passive Tree Priorities:

Crit Chance and Multiplier

Attack Speed (to match trigger rate)

Spell Damage
