Doeboy's CI Bow | LA or ICE SHOT | Puncture Trap | Atziri Viable
|
Hello everyone,
this is Doeboy with another Guide. After finishing my Bowcraft i desided to start playing a Bow based character again. Since iam not owning any gg life based items, and always played ES based, i chose "again" to play ES :P So in the end i came up for a Witch start, prefered CI over Lowlife, for a lot of reasons like, Es-Amount, Chaos Imune, No Aura Reserved nodes and no massive rotating over the skilltree. As main AOE skill i chose LA (Lightning Arrow), kinda oldskool, almost forgotten, but very nice if u ask me. 2ndary attack for single targets and heavy leech i tested currently 3 different version, Tornado Shot, Barrage, Frenzy, depending on the area we are in, i prefer an other skill to use for single target, all are viable and pretty strong aswell. For Bosses i took a puncture trap to hit as hard as i can with it.(%more damage tru Trap-Gem + Point Blank is a huge boost to the single target damage). With that in my mind i started this project and collected items / crafted items to perfectionize the Gear and Build overall.  TL;DR lets go into detail:
Char stats
 Pics are done with my Old Hubris and with lvl 86!
Main Attack – LA
Primary Single Target Attack – Puncture Trap
2ndary SingleTarget Attack – Various Versions
Spoiler

Tree
Bandits
Normal: Kill All
Curel: Kill Kraityn for 8% AS or OAK for 18%Physical Damage (took OAK) Merciless: Kill Alira for PC
My Gear
Flasks
will add them laters
Everything not mirrored is up for Mirror service here: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1068052
Gear Explaination
Headgear
Should use a high ES base (Hubris or a equal Hybrid base)
- High ES - High Accu Optional INT / RES (INT will boost our Mana + ES , Res to be capped at Merciless Usable Unique: The Vertex
Chest
Should use a high ES base (Vaal regalia)
- High ES - RES Optional INT (INT will boost our Mana + ES) Usable Unqiue: Atziris Splendor pure ES Version
Boots
Should use a high ES base (Sorceress Boots)
- High ES - RES - 20+%Movement Speed Optional INT (INT will boost our Mana + ES) Usable Unique: Rainbowstrides
Gloves
2 Different Options here: RARE, or UNIQUE
If RARE , should go for a Sorcerer Gloves base * - High ES - AS Optional: RES, INT (INT will boost our Mana + ES) If UNIQUE, Acuity Maligaro's Virtuosity * *By Not Using Acuity – Manaleech and Reg will become another topic u have to care of, and will slightly change the playstyle aswell. LA got massiv costs (~80/shot) so its highly recommended to switch between LA and ur 2ndary Single attack, which costs a lot less, to keep ur mana pool up. But to make that point sure – Acuity is not a must have!
Amulet
Should use a base that gives u missing stats (in my case i need only STR the most) Allround Choice = Onyx
- High Flat Physical Damage - ACCU - Crit.Chance - ES% Optional: Crit.Multi , RES , Lifeleech, INT (INT will boost our Mana + ES) Usable Unqiues: -none-

PRO & CONS Section
PRO
- LA Does a lot dmg tru Aoe, perma Shock + Freeze if u got a strong pyhsical Bow(with Hatred) - Conduit for a better Partyplay - 100% Immune to Chaos Damage (thanks to CI) - Big ES Pool to "tank" almost everything – there's like nothing that could 1shot you (not including uber atziri here :P ) - Flask Uptime of 90% - Free Lifeleech (10%) from Blood Rage + Addtional Attackspeed per Frenzy Charge We can use any bow based Attack on this build that is based on the bow damage* *(So if u might not like LA at all, and wanna try Ice Shot, Tornado Shot, Split arrow, Elemental Shot, Frenzy or anything else as Main, just go for it, the tree doesnt force u to use a specific skill)
CONS
- Due to taking Unwavering Stance we got zero block, means we have to be carefull where we placed, so it kinda requires a bit of movment skills. - We got no life(ES) regeneration - We cant afk in a monster pack - Is getting very expansive at some point. This is basicly it for now. Might add stuff, modify stuff laters. If there are any questions open - just ask them here, and i'll try to answer them in time. Enjoy and leave me feedback if u like. regards ~Doe. > Alt Arts for Sale: /view-thread/3260276 Contact support@grindinggear.com to report issues relating to the game or forum. Thanks!

ive heard that iron reflex for the higher DPS bows works better. source: a gg streamer: webethiest; i used evasion for first time in Rampage and it was awesome but bow is only 326, not 555 lol. your bow is awesome!!! mirror = 180? then what is your fee? ill need chromes, obviously and getting a ggggrb wont be hard. super cool thread!
POE is life. POE is ♥.

Since the Quiver i was using at start of the build wasnt 100% what i wanted, and i wasnt able to find a decent non fully crafted one with legacy critmulti - yesterday i crafted a non legacy crit implicit just for that build.
Went for mana leech aswell to slightly change the passiv tree again, to get more damage i lost from the leg. crit multi missing on my quiver. and here it is: also got hp roll on it, since there arnt any better mods worth taking as prefix. ANd like that it's also usable on a hp build :) > Alt Arts for Sale: /view-thread/3260276 Contact support@grindinggear.com to report issues relating to the game or forum. Thanks!

HK_Trinity , HK_Shepherd , My Shop: 694ES 6L for 35 ex, mirrored bow for 155ex http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/557010 WTT: Gale Fletch(GGRRRB) for GGGRBB or GGGRRB |
