About This Site

The Righteous Fire wiki and guide hub for Path of Exile, by Pohx.

Pohx.net is a community-maintained wiki dedicated to the Righteous Fire build in Path of Exile. Righteous Fire is a long-standing degeneration build that burns everything around the character, and it has a reputation for being both beginner-friendly and deep enough to take all the way into the endgame. This site collects everything a player needs to start that build, understand how it works, and keep it running well as the game changes from league to league.

Who is Pohx

Pohx is an ARPG, MMO, indie game and Warcraft III custom games streamer, best known in the Path of Exile community for popularising and refining Righteous Fire. Across many years and many leagues he has kept the build current, explained the reasoning behind each choice on stream, and built up a community around it. This site is the written companion to that work: the parts of the build that are easier to look up than to catch live.

What you'll find here

The goal is to answer the questions a Righteous Fire player actually asks, in a form you can return to rather than having to search for again. The main sections are:

  • Path of Building links. Ready-to-import builds for the current league, including a suggested league starter and a set of optional variants, so you can open the exact tree, gear and gems and follow along.
  • Crafting walkthroughs. Step-by-step recipes for the gear the build relies on, so you can make your own items instead of hunting for and overpaying on the trade market.
  • Atlas strategies. Mapping and endgame approaches for growing your atlas and turning maps into currency and progress.
  • A frequently asked questions section. The recurring "why isn't this working" and "what do I do next" questions that come up as people level and gear the build, answered in one place.

Kept current every league

Path of Exile changes with every league, and a build guide that is not maintained goes stale quickly. This site is updated each league so the Path of Building links, crafting steps and strategies reflect the current patch rather than a version of the game that no longer exists. It is a community effort, put together and kept up to date by volunteers around Pohx's stream and Discord, and it is free to use.

Get involved

If you want to watch the build played live, ask questions, or help keep the guides accurate, the best places are the Pohx Twitch stream and the Pohx Discord. See the contact page for more on each channel.
