Why get Savant (+30 Int) near the begging of the build if you get Blood Magic completely removing mana? I may be missing something here, but I see it as a wasted point. It's the only +int you have in the build. Also, not getting Iron Reflexes until pretty late seems odd to me too since you have all the +STR nodes. Now I'm not really critiquing, because I admit I'm rather new to PoE, but I am more so looking for an understanding to this build in case I choose to use it or something similar to it. Int may be required to use some gems, ie. auras.	Posted by Blah#3119 on Jan 28, 2013, 2:41:04 PM Quote this Post

hi, thanks a lot for this build. i'm actually level 35 ranger but choosed a wrong path, i'm willing to respec as much as i can to follow your build. by the way, i'm really newbie on the game, and i don't get it when you say : "Lightning Arrow (lvl 1 to 5 max!)" do you mean we need to limit the level of gems we own ? why should i do that ? and how do i block it ? all my gems are actually level 9 i think also, what do you mean by 4L, 6L etc ? thanks a lot regards	Posted by frenchlion#0045 on Jan 28, 2013, 3:06:47 PM Quote this Post

However, Lightning Arrow was adjusted for Open Beta, so I don't know if it still needs to stop being leveled. When you see a # followed by an "L", like 4L, that means 4 linked gems slots in an item.

thanks a lot mate, appreciated :-) and btw, how do you stop leveling a gem ? just by stopping clicking on the + icon on the right ?	Posted by frenchlion#0045 on Jan 28, 2013, 3:57:44 PM Quote this Post

Would be nice to get a reply plz and TY!!!!! ps AWESOME GAME well wrath for light dam - but needs Int so you won't be able to get it up much - not preferable till you have a decent life base anyway and Anger for Fire (STR based) - add Grace for some more tankiness if needed IGN: Lyandria	Posted by Ph33lon#2427 on Jan 28, 2013, 5:48:00 PM Quote this Post

That makes total sense now. I like the build and will certainly be doing something like this.	Posted by Jewster925#3694 on Jan 28, 2013, 6:29:56 PM Quote this Post
