Tyr's **0.11.1** Pure Elemental Bow Spec

I was intrigued by a previously posted Blood Magic spec going from Ranger all the way to Marauder and tried a variation on it linked up to both marauder and duelist starts due to indecision. I'm thinking dropping one of these would free up a lot of points (probably drop duelist). Also, I've seen % Elemental Damage nodes taken by others. Do those affect weapon elemental damage or only skill damage?

Here's what I'm working with so far, but I'm sure there are some inefficiencies. Paths go by a lot of key element specialization nodes though that can be respecced into as one focuses on one element or another.

Will I be able to get Chain, Weapon Elemental Damage, and Culling Strike from mission rewards or do i need to try and trade for them. Im still only half way through act 2 on normal so i havnt gotten a chance at them yet.

Also So far i have speced gear and skills for evasion, but I noticed you said best is HP/Armor/ES gear should I look to respec towards gear/skills that utilize those over evasion?

They arent Q rewards & I don't believe they will be. Hell I dont have a fraction of the skills & supports this build needs lol. Just gettin by without & saving assets for now.

I don't stack evasion or any defensive ability. There will eventually be Body & Soul, so I take some consideration to Armor & ES. I focus on HP/HP Regen & resists. Thats my defense :P

Keep in mind this is a min/max overkill dps high risk high reward build & approach. I farm for fun with as much dps as possible for more efficient runs. This isn't a defensive approach to PoE & isnt for everyone. Hardcore players detest this build rofl.

It gets ya paid tho & is fun as hell. Just not all that safe & secure hehe.

Could you please tell me what skill gems you used or which ones would be good when you start out with this build?

I'm using burning arrow + WED, rain of arrows & ice shot. Also swap out lightning & poison arrow as needed. Im saving all my resources to obtain certain gear & gems which are critical to this build. Aside from DH, my gear is nothing special at this point. I'll keep saving orbs & tradable rares & uniques to buyout Wake & Chain asap.

Killemall!

I just started playing poe and im using your build. It seems to work fine so far. Just about to enter act 3. Level 26 atm.

What combinations of gems do you sugest i use while leveling solo? Sofar explosive shot+extra arrow gem seems to work nicely. But thats like all i use. Seems i got room for improvement.

Tyranthal, thanks for this great build. I'm playing it atm at HC :) Thanks for your time and I'm waiting for more guides!
