Path of Exile 2 is shaping up to be a game that rewards creativity just as much as raw optimization. With redesigned skill interactions, expanded weapon identity, and more deliberate combat pacing, builds are no longer just about stacking numbers—they’re about how those numbers happen. Few builds embody that philosophy better than one of my personal all-time favorites: the Anal Fisher Titan.
Yes, the name is ridiculous. And yes, the build is just as unhinged as it sounds.
At its core, the Anal Fisher Titan is a ground-shattering, screen-deleting monstrosity built around multiple “fish” mechanics—Sunfishes, Earthshatter, and Molten Fishes—that work together to create one of the most explosive and entertaining playstyles in POE2. This is a build that doesn’t politely clear packs. It rips the earth apart, chains explosions across multiple screens, and deletes bosses with a single, perfectly timed wombo combo.
If you enjoy builds that feel powerful, physical, and borderline disrespectful to enemy health bars, you’re in the right place.
Core Concept: Turning the Ground into a Weapon
The Anal Fisher Titan revolves around one central idea: the ground itself is your primary damage source.
Rather than relying on traditional hit-based melee skills alone, this build uses Sunder, Earthshatter, and Molten interactions to transform terrain deformation into massive AoE and burst damage. You aren’t just attacking enemies—you’re destabilizing the battlefield beneath them and letting chained mechanics do the rest.
The result is a playstyle that feels brutal, weighty, and deeply satisfying. Every slam matters. Every shout detonates stored damage. Every screen-wide chain reaction feels earned.
And somehow, despite all that chaos, the build remains surprisingly straightforward to play.
Sunder: The Backbone of Map Clearing
Let’s start with Sunder, the unsung hero of this build’s clear speed.
Sunder’s area of effect in POE2 is nothing short of magnificent. Each use tears open the ground in a wide, forward-propagating shockwave that scales incredibly well with AoE modifiers. On its own, Sunder already clears packs efficiently—but the Anal Fisher Titan takes it several steps further.
By pairing Sunder with Herald of Ice and armor break chaining, every shattered enemy becomes a detonator. Packs don’t just die—they cascade. One explosion triggers another, which triggers another, until entire screens evaporate in a frozen, rocky chain reaction.
This is the kind of clear where you press one button and start moving before the animation even finishes, because you already know nothing behind you is alive anymore.
If you don’t find that fun… well, I genuinely don’t know what to tell you.
Herald of Ice and Armor Break: Chain Reaction Mayhem
What elevates Sunder from “strong” to “absurd” is how well it interacts with Herald of Ice and armor break mechanics.
Herald of Ice provides the chaining explosions that turn single kills into screen-wide clears. When enemies shatter, nearby monsters take damage, freeze, and shatter in turn. Because Sunder hits such a massive area, it reliably sets up these chains without requiring perfect positioning.
Armor break adds another layer of synergy. As enemies lose armor, subsequent hits deal dramatically increased damage, ensuring that once a chain starts, it never fizzles out halfway through a pack.
The combination results in a clear style that feels almost unfair. Monsters rarely get a chance to act, and density becomes an advantage rather than a threat.
Where Sunder Falls Off—and Why That’s Fine
Now for the honest part: Sunder is not a great single-target skill.
Against bosses, especially those with limited adds or large arenas, Sunder’s damage profile feels underwhelming. The AoE is still there, but raw burst just isn’t its strength. And that’s okay—because this build doesn’t rely on Sunder for bossing at all.
That’s where Earthshatter comes in.
Earthshatter: One of the Best Burst Skills in the Game
If Sunder is the cleanup crew, Earthshatter is the executioner.
Earthshatter is, without exaggeration, one of the strongest burst-oriented melee skills available in POE2. Its power comes from delayed explosions that scale incredibly well with proper setup. Instead of dealing all your damage upfront, Earthshatter stores it—then releases it all at once.
Here’s how it works in practice:
You place six Earthshatter spikes on the ground.
You use a warcry to detonate them.
Everything in the area explodes.
Simple. Brutal. Effective.
With solid gear, a properly executed Earthshatter combo can hit well into the tens of millions. With great gear? You’re looking at burst windows that can exceed 100 million damage in a single sequence.
Boss phases simply disappear.
Warcries: The Detonation Trigger
The real magic of Earthshatter lies in how it interacts with warcries.
Instead of manually triggering each explosion, you simply shout—and the ground responds. Warcries detonate Earthshatter spikes instantly, compressing what would normally be extended damage into a single, devastating burst.
This makes the build incredibly strong against:
Stationary bosses
Phase-based encounters
Enemies with brief vulnerability windows
You don’t need sustained DPS. You need one good opening—and Earthshatter delivers.
Forge Hammer and Molten Fishes: Pushing Burst Even Further
As if Earthshatter wasn’t strong enough on its own, the Anal Fisher Titan layers in Forge Hammer and Molten Fishes to push burst damage even higher.
Forge Hammer acts as an additional support skill, amplifying the damage of your Earthshatter spikes and adding another source of heavy-hitting impact damage. Molten Fishes contribute both damage and utility, creating overlapping explosions that stack perfectly with your existing setup.
The result is a bossing sequence that feels like setting off controlled demolition charges. Everything happens at once, health bars evaporate, and the fight ends before it ever really begins.
