Path of Exile Wailing Essence of Zeal FAQs
Which builds benefit most from speed modifiers?
Speed-focused builds like Flicker Strike Raider, Tornado Shot Deadeye, and Spark Inquisitor benefit greatly. This Essence guarantees key speed stats for smoother gameplay and higher DPS uptime.
Is trap/mine throwing speed relevant in endgame?
Absolutely. Saboteur builds rely on rapid deployment for damage layering. This Essence helps lock in throwing speed early in the crafting process.
Should I corrupt this Essence or use it directly?
Use directly when targeting specific speed modifiers. Corrupting may yield Screaming-tier or unlock special Essences, but risks losing deterministic control.
Can this Essence be used in influence crafting?
Yes, but plan carefully. Essence modifiers override normal affix pools and may block influence-specific mods. Use early in the crafting process before applying influence.
Does movement speed scale well in endgame?
Yes—especially for mapping efficiency and dodge-based defenses. Movement speed is a core stat for builds that rely on positioning and evasion.
