[Possible 3.0 Update Coming SOON!]"Dbum's Occultist Essence Drain/Decay with a F***ing Bow!"

do most people just run Vortex until they hit a boss then use ED?

Hey, I'm pretty inexperienced when it comes to degen builds but would this same template in terms of gear (bow/soulstrike/ci) work with a Caustic Arrow build?

I really want to make a consistant Lab runner and love the synergy in this build but I really dislike the ED/Contagion playstyle (even if it is similar to ca) and have already done a Vortex build recently? Congratz on the cool build.

Also if this is the case, what would be the best option out of;

+1 bow Delerium
+3 bow

Yes. Even in T13+ I use exclusively Vortex until the boss. Unless a rare pops up with an increased life modifier or something.

Hi there! Atm i'm playing your awesome Build, it makes really fun to play. Currently i'm at Level 73, 9,2k ES and already run double Curse.

But there is one problem, i have Mana Issues. The reason is, essence drain cost me 71 per spell and vortex 56, 25 mana regen. But when i got hit the spell is automatically stopped sometime, and it's hard to get away from mobs because i don't have any mana anymore.

This is not. He's got 371% ES just from the tree. I've never seen anyone go for that much, it's crazy. This guy (who does play hardcore) has 250% from the tree and has 14k+ES (also god tier gear but that's not my point).

It is not necessary to get that much es, I just wanted to see how much I could get with out sacrificing much damage.

Now UberDans gear does make a massive difference. I upgraded to a crystal belt tonight and that 80 es gave me 500+ total es. If I had the gear Dan has I would drop a ton of es nodes because roughly 14k es is enough for any CI build.

Yes you can go CA if you want, but if you have watched my 2nd vid I do not use contagion any longer. This build has started using Vortex to spread Decay.

If CA is what you really want this is were you want to look https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1695998

I also ran into mana issues and the main reason I spec'd Dreamer node is for the max mana/mana regen. Also you can get max mana/mana regen on rings/amulet to help out quite a bit.

I have since reworked my tree to get some more mana as well, still finalizing this version.

Dbum

Started buying some gear so Im ready for maps.



Wish I got better ES% rolls on my rings but I cant afford to reroll them since I still need to buy my Bow. Trying to max out my resists so I dont have to worry bout them on my Chest so I can get a lot more ES.

And just rounded out my gear...sans Bow

just wondering if anyone on ESC can do the bench mod I need in order to exalt the +1 gems since I dont have a level 8 Catarina

I used https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1732142/page/1 Kalovo's. He says it's for free but I always give him a good tip. Specially after crafting the beautiful bow.

WORST LUCK EVER. I was like pay 8ex for an already crafted +1 Decay Bow? Not when I can make one for 4. Bought the white 6 link for 2 exalt and was like lets do this. Already had 3Delirium so figured this would be cake. 5 @#%!ing exalts worth of Deliriums later I finally rolled something with an open suffix. I rolled +2 Bow gems 3 times lol. I didnt think it was possible to roll triple suffix and no prefix but Im pretty sure I did a few times.

How Valuable is the 40% Vortex enchant for overall clearspeed?
Iam hesitant to roll over it.

Whats the Head enchant you all are aiming for?



also iam proud of my gloves :)



Essence League is LOVE!
