Build Overview

This build is ever evolving and will be updated as changes are set in stone. The current variant listed here has been updated as of 6/15/26.

6/15/26 POB - https://pobb.in/xdW0PHMywVTm

Nightfall has been an item that I have longed to play with since its introduction. This item is literally everything I want to do in Path of Exile 2. Even in Path of Exile 1 we have a skill called Spectral Shield Throw and it is my favorite skill.

Once this item was introduced I knew I had to play with it. There are many different variants of the build out there but none of them really stuck with me the way I wanted to play it. This version of the build is essentially one button. We press Soaring Midnight we throw our shield we press Soaring Midnight again and BOOM everything explodes! What more could you ask for.

Please note this build needs at least level 90 or it will not work.

Core of the build

Soaring Midnight which comes from Nightfall has a max level of 20. To use this we need to be level 90. We use an item called a Perfect Flux on our shield to bring it to 20. Then we use a Perfect Jewelers Orb to give us 6 sockets.

Soaring Midnight at base as a 4 second cooldown. There are plenty of ways to reset this cooldown using Ice Crystals. But currently that is not an approach I wanted to take. So I went with Cooldown Recovery Rate. The Amulet/Ring/Boots/Passive Tree all have Cooldown Recovery Rate to the max for this build. Ideally we get the cooldown to 1.3 seconds and it should line up perfectly with the animation of our character falling and standing back up to throw again.

I tried with Temporalis it is NOT worth the money for the armor.

How to Play This Build

Essentially all we do is walk around and cast Soaring Midnight and then slam Soaring Midnight because we are a Titan we have the ability to have every second attack be Ancestrally Boosted! This means when we throw our shield this counts as 1 and the slam counts as 2! This gives up MAJOR DAMAGE! Now because we use titan and we get the nodes Earthbreaker and Ancestral Empowerment we want to make sure we scale our aftershock chance to a 100% This way EVERY ATTACK IS MASSSSSSIVE!

The goal of this build is to be as close to 1 button as possible. I dont want to do a 100 shenanigans with Ice Walls or Shield Wall or other fancy stuff. I just want to throw my shield and port around the map.

How Costly Is This Build

Yes. This build is extremely costly. Mostly because of the unique approach to Cooldown Recovery Rate. Please do not expect this build to work on a few divines. There are probably some versions out there that are budget that do different things based on your budget. But this will be expensive to get working. I am willing to pay a premium for 1 button gameplay with a built in teleport.

The Gear and How To Make It

The Gear currently is pretty tight. The Necklace/Rings and Boots all have Cooldown Recovery Rate on them.

The weapon is a huge stat stick giving us % chance for aftershock and boosting our skills

Mageblood is filling in gaps

Our Body Armor and Helmet is giving us energy shield because we are Chaos Inoculation

Our Gloves are giving us RAW DAMAGE!

Crafting the gear is a process - I will be adding in crafting for the gear shortly this will be updated.


Unique Jewels and How We Get Chaos Inoculation

Flesh Crucible gives us Chaos Inoculation there only good one i saw was with - Movement Speed. We dont care about movement speed in this build. DONT BUY A BAD ONE IT WILL ONLY HURT YOUR BUILD

Split Personality Ruby this gives us the ability to start pathing from the Monk starting area. This gives us a lot of great nodes at the start that I personally value higher then starting at the Witch area

From Nothing we need this to maximize the amount of Cooldown Recovery Rate we get from the tree

Heroic Tragedy THIS NEEDS TO SAY VORANA ON IT! WE DONT CARE ABOUT THE NUMBER ONLY VORANA. IF IT DOESNT SAY VORANA ON IT THEN THIS WILL NOT WORK

Heart of the Well HUGE DAMAGE! Double Damage as Extra , Crit Chance and Crit Bonus!

How To Level This Build

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/whirling-slash-twister-all-content-and-leveling-guide-for-deadeye

I literally bought a Split Personality Ruby for Ranger. I pathed my titan the quickest rout to a jewel socket. Then I put in the Split Personality Ruby and started leveling as though I was Deadeye Twisters. A more comprehensive guide will be coming out soon!
