Also I noticed your manual puncture set up has a "point blank" gem, but your puncture trap set up doesn't. Any reason for this? In my testing I'm quite sure point blank works for traps because I notice a massive damage boost when I use it. It seems to me to be the biggest damage boost gem there is.





Shouldn't it be that?


And for Uber Atziri, what about spec'ing into "Expeditious Munitions" and "Master Sapper" and "Blast Cascade"

I know it's 10 skill points but it seems like the damage boost to puncture trap would be pretty huge. Would make a decent boss killing skill I think. If I ever get around to leveling up into the mid 90's I'll probably do it.

if i choose to play traps i take point blank in tree and use RoA

Is there a good alternative to Chain? any other good green support gem? I'm new to PoE and I feel like the mana increase Chain brought killed my char for now, until I get better mana regen stuff. I'm using Lightning Arrow 6L now, the setup just as you recommended.

Thanks for the quick reply, would faster attacks be a viable option? I like the swiftness it could bring (got a 1.35 bow)

i would only use FA if it feels to slow. But with them frenzy charges we get a lot of speed so QoL should be there. FA is basicly a lost gemslot, it doesnt add damage, nor leech!

Not to be a pain because I know your char is definitely optimized for you and your mirrored gear, but for regular players Faster Attacks is definitely a huge damage boost. We don't one shot packs like you do, and for people who's damage is around the 10k mark on lightning arrow, faster attacks would be a HUGE effective damage boost.

I've got my damage up to 22k now with lightning arrow so I don't use Faster Attacks anymore, but when I was at 10k it was the biggest "effective" damage boost gem there is.

dont get this wrong, but FA doesnt add damage to your attack! it adds aps, and u dont stand afk for secounds and shoot, a ranger is hit and run designed!

Damnit Doe... keep reading this guide and decided I'm clobbering together a budget-y version of this with what I got. Haven't played Ranger since 1.3 so I got that itch again. I need to find a nice eva chest T_T

Maybe the items will help out the budget section a little bit and help people decide on how to gear.

if u can get res on the rings / amulet, you could use the new hyrris (or how its called^^ old accro chest) or the new unqiue - lioneye's chest, running a 7L aoe attack!

Well for your mirrored gear character yeah that is probably how it's done, but like I said for people with regular gear and normal damage range, completely not true.

Nobody said anything about standing afk for a minute and shooting. But for people with lower damage it's almost a sure thing they are shooting twice per pack. Which means, faster attacks is essentially a 54% damage boost. Obviously it doesn't add damage directly, but it makes clear speed way WAY faster, so it's all the same thing in the end.



Your guide is clearly optimized for your mirrored gear and congrats, well put together. But if you ever do decide to make a budget section, you might want to ask people who have actually played a budget character. Doesn't seem like you really know what you're talking about with regards to game mechanics and what all means from the perspective of a 10-15K damage character. 0.02$
