[2.0] Low Budget Crit Tornado Shot Ranger | beginner friendly | great for new and casual players

Thanks for this build recently started playing again and its fun although a little squishy vs exiles or is that just me not knowing how to handle them?
Maybe there will be some Blood Magic gem involved in the future of this build (sacrifice some HP for a Herald?)

I .. really don't like Infractem ): and would advice players to prefer defenses and not dmg., but than again i saw that 2.0 will change mana leech node from 2% to 0.4% + mana on hit, so Infractem might be a lot better in 2.0

Anyway - the jewels will change things alot and i can't suggest anything before seeing what they provide.
Thank you very much for such a clearly explained guide. I was struggling with many of the more advanced concepts in game and afraid to allocate my passive points. Having everything laid out like this has given me the confidence to spend my passives and start trading for the right gear.

Now my main problem is finding a good build for my co op Templar who I will be playing with 99% of the time. I am hoping to find a good build that works together with this one. Are there any common builds (preferably Templar) that take advantage of most enemies having assassin's mark and that can keep up with most enemies being dead a slow melee character gets there?

When always playing with 2 people would herald of Ash be less effective? Anything else I should consider when always in a party of two?

Great guide man! This is really helping me with my first ranger. Looks like a lot of fun and can't wait to try tornado shot with all those links on it :)

Can I know what this mean? what is 4-5c?

4-5 Chaos

Probably even less now in Standard

I got one for 1c while leveling my alt


Mmm ok! any idea how I can get it? (the bow) I just hit 53 and I'd like to get one, thanks

Best Guide ever! thanks man!
Now I'm still downloading and wondering what this build would be. Ice Bite and Hypothermia might be interesting as replacement of Herald of Ice. They said Enlighten can reduce mana cost for reserve, but the price... *whimper*

Venevi - Ranger - Standard
Meniet - Witch - Standard
Any updates for the skilltree or is it pretty much the same?
Hi guys, just a quick heads up: I will update this build to 2.0.0 but I need some more time. I plan to have everything carved out by end of July (have other real life stuff to do in the meantime).

As a quick update strat:
- I will drop one Herald (probably Herald of Ice)
- Instead of Revelry I will pick Spirit Void (this will free up a lot of points)
- Instead of the Scion Life Wheel I will probably pick life and projectile nodes in the Duelist area

Item choices stay the same. I do not yet plan on adding a specific jewel but will decide on one once I'm more familiar with the jewel affixes and the unique jewel options...
