[1.3, BoTW S3/E10] The Arcane Archer - Chaos Arc by CantripN

Seems like great gear. I'd be worried about your Life, though, since you have so much gear with none at all, but maybe with the Lightning Coil, you'll be ok.
Your biggest problem will be getting a Voltaxic with the right colors (if you insist on using the Coil as your chest), as we're talking 5+ off color for Arc.

That's true, hence I might be switching my armor contents to the bow depending on the colors.
My luck with Vorichi is incredible so I won't be too worried. Chroms are also extremely accessible in the market, and after making 40+ EX from the 6L Pledge it should be easy to get currency. Life wise I'm sitting at 3800ish which, in my opinion, is more than enough considering the defensive layers the build has. Thanks for rating.

Why do you use 2 4L with CwdT? is it to cast more enduring cry/frost wall then immortal call?
|
|
" It has to do with the cooldown on Enduring Cry, and so I have room for Frost Wall. Also, so I can put Increased Duration on Vaal Haste. If you use both EC+IC together, you often get it to trigger while EC is on cooldown, resulting in IC getting a VERY short duration. Test it if you want, but using 2 CwDT gems is FAR safer.

First off hello and I would like to say ty for this build. It helps me play the game with out dying so much since my pc is very old ( about 7 yrs :D) and lags badly lol, Im new to this game and this build makes it possible for me to play with out dying so much since it kills quickly and survives most anything. If there is any new info or changes I would appreciate a heads up so I can check it out since my char is still low lvl ( below 30 ) one thing you mentioned was that the bow required is expensive so my question is does it drop in game or does it have to be crafted and if so how do I do that? my ign is Endrims :) i would appreciate any info given and ty in advance :)

First of all, welcome to PoE :)
Glad leveling is good for you. Alas, Voltaxic Rift *only* drops from Item Level 78+, meaning at the LEAST a level 76 map, and even then it's a rare drop. It's also possible (albeit unlikely) to make one with a Chance Orb used on a Spine Bow (any). The only reliable way to get one is via trade, making this a bad build for a player with little to no currency to begin with. In the current state of the game, most casters are very good for leveling, but later on, you'll need to build it right. If you wish to play an Arc caster without the bow, I can suggest several alternatives.

Hello,
I haven't been playing PoE several months and missed forsaken masters. Now I planning coming back, and checked my gear. I have a Voltaxic Rift. And I high level witch for a respec. Along with this I have another nice items like Shavronnes Wrappings and Atziri Acuity. So I wanted to try out a low life version of the build. But I have few questions, before I can try this. Is it possible to do this low life, or is the ES missed too much? Or is it enough for something like normal Atziri? How about using Lightning Arrow with all these nifty Auras coming from Low life? Can Chaos Damage Crit? More specifically do the "ticks" of the DoT effect crit, or can the initial hit crit? Is Atziris Acuity worth it? Would be Puncture a good single target Skill? Like "hit them once and run away, while they slowly die". Thx for the inspiring thread, always wanted to abuse Voltaxic :) |

" Heya. You can certainly make a low-life version, and it would probably be quite strong, probably stronger than the life version (should even be able to use Arctic Armor, even if not level 20+) as usual. Atziri shouldn't be too much of a problem on low-life, as you can run both Purity auras you need easily. As for Lightning Arrow / Puncture, you can do this, but that would be an altogether different build, and not a caster, eh? This guy did a fine job of it: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1096864 Chaos can crit, but DoT can't. Atziri's Acuity is always worth it if you have it, duh, it's a broken item.

1.3 Tree for level 100 (remove whichever damage passives add least): https://poebuilder.com/character/AAAAAgMAghDfsAelAuNJsiycdhEQWND1QZYFQq6zH8creGr6DlxFfkyzfq8RD9teUDDdjNlf4BKNGVXGOlismF8qdFWD21gHfOUYangvm6H317b696aOZB0Uj0bjahZv-tI26SSqgKRV1mTnFy-FfRZAZp7VpleUKU-aO-08gpvhc6IABLPAZvAfJy8aOJBVwBpxhcy31XWxQn7HG_Hli52upwja3aKjwfOVIC0fakPAVLzqaxcI9ElR8NWVLgceEZZ_xtsLgh7yHWSd6_WP-l3yDkikkX4zE56MNlVLFr8mlWHicFKJ03DV34p-WWND8uE=
In short, much better tree for this build now, despite a small nerf to crit damage circle. Get Templar Aura passives instead of Shadow's ones, some more mana regen, a LOT more Damage-oriented passives available, no harm to Life. Verdict: Build is BETTER on 1.3!
