Petrov's Ranger Build: Lightning Strike or Reave+Abyssus+Lightning Coil+EB+MoM+VP
Out of curiosity, have you tested WED/Critical Chance/Critical Dmg vs Faster attacks (now MPD) as the 5th support?
Any reason those 3 aren't better than FA/MPD? AMD Ryzen 7 5800X

Regarding the choice of support gems, on my setup in terms of DPS: MPD>WED>FA. You could consider getting rid of multistrike, which is arguably in some circumstances less effective against high armour mobs - but I really like Multistrike for the autoaim.
I haven't specifically tried Crit Chance or Crit Damage, but I know from playing this game for a couple of years that a) Crit Chance gems always suck and b) Crit Dmg gem can be fasntastic if you have a crit chance pushing 50+% (which mine doesn't). Also, if I'm doing a tough 73+ map I'll sometimes spec out of LMP and put in mana leech. Sounds goofy, but you'd be amazed at how much more tanky that mana leech suport gem can make you feel when using MoM. And nice helmet! Have you tried running abyssus? P. |

Interesting build and might try this one out, though I have some questions for you, petrov.
1. Do you find that minimal shield block investment is fine and should just be avoided, or would some additional block be a good idea? 2. Would it be better to go for say an Archon shield as a potential choice if you need the inherent all resist that it offers instead of going for a pure ES shield? 3. In terms of running Arctic Armor, is there a sweet spot you should shoot for depending on how much MR you can get, or is it possible to run it at max? 4. How high into maps have you gone with this build and at any point has there been any damage/mobs that you felt really threatened by? Thanks in advance! :) |

Hey mrpetrov, I am playing this build selffound at the moment and I am enjoying it a lot.
Since I wont be able to get that many CoDT gems I would like to run a curse or something like that. Which curse would you recommend? Right now I use Warlords Mark for additional Leech (I am only lvl 49 so for the moment it helps a lot). Also, since I am playing in Domination (= Softcore) I dont worry about dying once in a while, so I will probably not run Temporal Chains. Which curse would be the best for this build? E: Yeah I am stupid. After reading your post 10 times I saw you recommend Ele Weakness. E2: Another question, I could buy a Lightning Coil but I am far too poor for Abyssus. Is it still worth using Lightning Coil without Abyssus, or should I just get a good rare chest? Last edited by xLightz#2730 on Nov 18, 2013, 12:14:54 PM
