Unholy Might is a temporary buff in Path of Exile that converts physical damage into additional chaos damage for a short duration. This effect enhances offensive capabilities, particularly against enemies with lower chaos resistance.
Core Mechanics
When active, Unholy Might grants:
- 30% of physical damage added as extra chaos damage.
- Base duration of 4 seconds, extendable with modifiers.
- Triggered via specific conditions like critical strikes or item procs.
Sources of Unholy Might
Players can acquire this buff through:
- Skill Gems: Active gems such as Vulnerability apply it on hit.
- Items: Unique items like Sinvicta's Mettle grant it on kill.
- Passive Skills: Nodes in the tree can enable automatic triggering.
Build Optimization
To maximize Unholy Might:
- Focus on high physical damage output to amplify chaos scaling.
- Increase duration through gear or skills for consistent uptime.
- Pair with chaos-oriented defenses like resistances for balance.
