As a ranger, is it worth going for method of madness (54 chaos damage+ 12 chaos res) when the points I get if i go for ballistic mastery give me 71 proj damage?	Posted by ald1413#1574 on Dec 22, 2015, 12:18:19 AM Quote this Post

Ballistic mastery is a good choice for sure. Project damage is great and affects the cloud.

Regen here is difficult but vaal lighting trap helps a good deal. We have no way to detonate dead unless you spell totem it which is so map specific.

Some bosses can even oneshot me(with some added damage mod), so having high evsaion rating is quite bad, it doesnt helps at all Are you using vaal grace? Evasion flasks? i am running t11 maps with no phase acro. i even did atziri with no phase acro. you need some good instant pots and just move around. if a boss can hit you then you werent moving. pa is shoot and run for 5 sec. shoot then run for 5 sec. occasionally you can get blocked in somewhere or beartrapped but for the most part this is one of the safest builds out there. Yupp. Basically CA let's you move so much that you don't get hit by attacks. It requires you to play well. Flasks and instant pots are imperative to help you manage your mistakes. Better than armor if you play evasion well!

I would also recommend Blood Dance boots, as I personally hate using frenzy and instead you can use Ice Shot with curse on hit, wich also slows so its another defensive mechanism. Also, if you strugle with bosses you got 2 options. Nr.1 - The most used one - Vaal Lightning Trap Nr.2 - Spell Totem + Wither. I haven't tried Lightning Trap yet, but I love wither.

The biggest problem with wither on spell totem is bosses will kill the totem and render it ineffective. Vaal trap won't die and will stay up working for a long time especially with 3 charges	Posted by derff87#5755 on Dec 22, 2015, 3:32:02 PM Quote this Post
