Oh god this has to be the worst build ever to level with. I am hoping that once I get to lvl 60ish and get a good bow it wont take 10 frenzy arrows to kill a single white mob. I don't have a four link green yet but I may try to go splitarrow/ek although mana is an issue. I am hoping to one day get to the good stage of this build.


Dont blame anything on the Build :) :D

I m leveling to with this build atm at invasion league.... will update level guide with tips!

Ya, some of the new bosses are insane. Mostly just a select few of the corrupted ones. I have a similar build to this and for the truly difficult bosses I tend to resort to puncture or SA spam with an off the screen distance.

I have recently started a new bow idea that I hope will be able to handle all the bosses without resorting to such cowardly tactics.

My DPS is very, very bad. Any ideas if higher levels it will get better?

I solved my mana problems tonight by running Clarity and speccing into Mind Drinker (along with a 2% mana leech item) at level 49. My ranger is back to spamming Frenzy and is attacking Act3 Cruel (Ambush) with alot of confidence.

So I guess I deviated from the guide slightly by picking up some Mana help. Once I get some better gear I might be able to drop it and start running Grace which I'm leveling up on my switch set. Other than that change, I'm following the guide tree and she is very playing strong.


How do have mana to run both clarity and grace?

Also i still have mana problems with clarity and mind drinker and 6% mana leech. Help!
people with mana problems
you arnt doing enough damage

post your gear, i suspect you have a high attack speed bow but low dps
try going for a lower attacks speed bow so frenzy doesnt murder your mana and you hit harder to get more out of the nerfed mana leech

i have yet to transition to using coc+ek(not enuf crit and still have a thicket), using split+faster attacks+added fire+ppad and doing 4k dps with 7 frenzy charges at lvl74, can sustain my mana no problems
Y dont go much into Attackspeed Bow....play with slow bows, ROA, 3 Mana flasks etc! Every bow build has its mana issues at the beginning!

Waaaah lol. I am pretty sure if there was no such thing as mana regeneration or mana leech, you could play with 2 mana flasks!

I guess some people arround here are playing first time Ranger or even first time Poe!

I would recommend to read basic guids also!

This guid requires some basic knowledge!

Dps, Manareg, Feeling of Playstyle in lvlrange 1-50 depends alot of your equip! You can find 10 good rares at lvl10 or play with only magic items at lvl30 if you are unlucky!

OFC Gear is always a factor! So dont blame it on the build...its pretty solid and standard approved! Testing it now in Invasion league and doing fine....atm only lvl36 ;D

Hi. I'm not running them both simultaneously, just leveling Grace on my backup switch weapon set while actively running Clarity for now. Later, hopefully, I'll eventually solve the mana issues with better gear and be able to activate the already leveled Grace instead, as the Guide recommends.

In addition to Clarity, mind drinker some mana leech, I have several items with mana regen. Also, I removed the Life Leech support that was on Frenzy for now due to the mana multiplier cost (150%). I reworked everything so I can spam my skills freely.

It solved the mana drought for now. I would rather be able to spam less optimized skills than have to resort to default attack as I was. It's fun again.

Good luck!

p.s. yes I'm new to poe (my first season), running a fairly slow bow 1.20 speed. But I'm solving my problems :-)
