Intro

Hi. This is my variation of Barrage / Tornado shot raider. This is a Hybrid Ele conversion / Crit build meaning we have around ~60% crit. Some builds skip crit altogether, others go full crit. This build basically picks the best Ele Dmg, Crit and Life nodes creating a hybrid.

This build has great map clear with TS and huge barrage dps - amazing at killing bosses. You can kill all the content in PoE very, very fast without spending a lot. This build has around ~ 5k hp and relies on manual skills when dodging boss one shots. Having ~50% attack dodge chance and 40% for spell dodge chance helps plenty (75% with vaal grace).

☑ No legacy Gear
☑ No Abyssus
☑ No weapon swap
☑ No Mirrored items
☑ 7+ mil dps
☑ 160%+ move speed
☑ Clears all content

Item choices



Lioneye's Glare is in my opinion a better option for a mid-budget build than doomfletch or death's opus. This bow has up to 360pdps which in reality is closer to 400pdps if you consider that it always hits. 24% increased elemental damage is great too. After buff Far shot is amazing. Very underrated bow.



Shroud of the Lightless is currently the best/cheapest Armour for this build. It has elemental penetration (penetrates all elements), a lot of life/shield and a jewel slot. It's also very cheap around 2ex for a 6link (!!).



The Signal fire is needed to convert phys damage to elemental. Also it gives a ton dps with ias and extra fire damage. If you can get +1 arrow mod that's really good too.




For helmet you want something with +1 barrage projectiles enchant.There is a lot of options here: a rare helmet (like the one above), Rat's nest, Starkonja's Head, the best would be probably Lightpoacher - new abyss helmet - with 2 GG abyssal jewels. The rare helmet is the cheapest option. 2 jewel Lighpoacher (without an enchant) is also a good, balanced option.



2 soc Tombfists are baisically the best option for this due to incredible 10% MORE, damage from intimidate, attack speed, life and 2 whole abyss jewels. Seriously these gloves are pretty stacked. If you can't get them you can use 1 soc version or rare ones with phys damage, attack speed, life and resists.



On boots you want: life, movement speed, resistances. 10% penetration enchant is very good if you plan to do boss farming. Darkray Vectors are a good option for this build to. Of course Bubonic trail with 2 sockets is OP, if you can afford it get that.



You want to get resists, life, Elemental damage with attack skills, phys damage and crit on rings, belt, and amulet. For damage prioritize Elemental damage with attack skills on everything. Our belt is obviously Abyss belt with a good jewel. Unless you have Headhunter of course.



Here are several example jewels that I'm using now in Abyss, all crafted by myself using Alt + Regal (+Exalt) method. In general they're OP as fuck even without exalted 4th mod. Very easy to craft too, and here is how: you alt + trans until you get 2 T1-T2 mods (preferably life) and then regal hopefully another T2-T1 mod



For example in this Jewel I alted T2 lightning damage and T1 life regaled T1 cold damage and then sadly exalted T4 another cold damage. Crit watcher's eye is very good too but not necessary.



Dying sun is very important for this build as it gives a huge boost to barrage DPS. Atziri's promise gives really good leech and great damage. Taste of Hate is the least important of those 3 but still very nice: giving good damage and mitigation. Other flasks you should get are: crit flask and Quicksliver / Onslaught flask. Get bleed&curse removal on them.



Gems, Auras & Sockets



Barrage

BARRAGE + ELEMENTAL DAMAGE WITH ATTACKS + ELEMENTAL FOCUS + MIRAGE ARCHER + ADDED COLD DAMAGE WITH ATTACKS + ICE BITE

Tornado Shot

TORNADO SHOT + GMP + ADDED COLD DAMAGE WITH ATTACKS + ELEMENTAL DAMAGE WITH ATTACKS + MIRAGE ARCHER + PIERCE


Mana Reserved skills

I'm always using HATRED without any links (optional Enlighten ). Beyond that you can use:

HERALD OF FIRE - Gives you flat +15% extra elemental damage and some burning splash damage, only requires 1 gem slot.

HERALD OF ICE + CURSE ON HIT + ASSASIN'S MARK - Gives you Power Charges when mapping (doesn't work vs bosses). In general has better damage when mapping and killing packs of mobs, worse damage vs bosses. Takes 3 gem slots

PROJECTILE WEAKNESS + BLASPHEMY (+ENLIGHTEN) - if you're not running out of mana you can use this. The best option when mapping or when you're too lazy to manual curse bosses.

Other Gems

IMMORTAL CALL + INCREASED DURATION + CAST WHEN DAMAGE TAKEN - gives you 0.7 invulnerability when you take a hit, very helpful.

VAAL GRACE + VAAL HASTE + INCREASED DURATION - I love these Vaal gems and use them always. Vaal grace gives you 75%/75% chance to dodge everything and Vaal Haste gives you 30%+ more attack speed. Often you can just activate it, go yolo and kill stuff before anything even hits you. USE THIS AS IT'S SUPER OP NOW - THE CAST TIME IS NOW INSTANT!!

If you're not using blashpemy you should use Projectile Weakness (+ Faster Casting) and obviously put Blink Arrow (+ Faster Attacks) somewhere.



Skill tree

>>> Vitality Void (by Vaal Pact) is very useful to pick if you're starting out in a new league or are new to the game. It's going to make your life easier and you can always respec out of it when you feel you have enough leech. <<<

Bandit: help Alira

Ascendancy: First: Avatar of the Slaughter then eithier Avatar of the Veil or Avatar of The Chase. Chase is more damage and is faster overall, veil is more defensive with aliment immunity and extra dodge. Both are good it's up to you if you want to have a slightly more offensive or defensive character.

Ending notes

This build is always in development as the new content and items get added.

Enjoy all! Any questions just ask.

This looks very well thought out. Im going to give this a try :D

Do you have a step by step leveling process? For what nodes to take first.
Also if 6L bow what would be the last gem?, and do you have a POB link.


Cheers

This looks interesting, now to find that 6l Ashrend :) (none on poe.trade)

If you can spare few respect points firstly I would go down to Duelist tree and grab all the life nodes. After that as the bosses get tougher you should go get acrobatics and phase actobatics. When you approach 50+ you should start climbing towards shadow tree. Picking vaal pact depends on when you have enough life leech and damage to actually use it. Leave Point blank for when you're ready to farm endgame bosses.
Last gem could be faster atatcks, crit multiplier or crit chance depending on what works best with your items (Most likely faster attacks).

Most people don't even consider it as an option because of sheep mentality. In their world only 2 unique chests exist for a bow/phys conv build: Kaom, Belly of the Beast and maybe Yriel Fostering (not sure why, in my opinion it doesn't have a lot to offer and the minion is super weak without using minion gems on it). Somehow a chest that gives flat +34% elemental damage that is multiplied by all your elemental buffs is considered not good enough. Hopefully this build and the insane Dps/budget ratio that it has proves it otherwise.

I was able to get my 6 link for 260 chaos so it's far less expensive than meta chests but it's true that it's hard to find one on sale sadly.

Was completing a few maps that that were left on the atlas and accidentally opened Vaal Temple with deadly twins. Yes there were 6 bosses total.

Hi,

nice Build, thanks for it.

Do you have a PoB link with gear etc?

Thanks again!

Hi what stats did you get on jewels mate.

Hi what stats did you get on jewels mate.

You want to look for life/attack speed/projectile damage/damage with bows/crit/crit multi.

Here the jewels that I'm using at the moment:



As you can see there is a lot of room to upgrade here. ;)

Having fun with the build so far but just lvl 42:P I opted going shadow nodes first, just no crit stuff yet. It melts stuff :D
Do have a 5l ashrend, 6l lion and a 6l opus. No +1quiver yet.

I wonder if some nodes are skipped, perhaps some crit or w/e and go for lion eye jewel setup with claw nodes how that would pan out. I do have that jewel will give that a go when im lvl 90+
