Would you consider andvarius or goldwyrm more important to start with? Andvarius I guess since you posted in that order? I currently just have sadima's+perandus and IIR rares. I think my total IIR just around ~110 maybe
I've finally got 2ex saved up and was thinking of making a +3 bow (and praying I wont need a 3rd exa). Just havent been able to 5/6-link it yet. But on the other hand I could use that 2ex to try and get either goldwyrm or andvarius... It's just that my ~9000dps (without frenzy charges) is starting to feel a bit low in lvl74+ maps. |

I don't like advarius, malus to res is a pain :p. You can get a fair amount of iir on rare rings:
Personal opinion of course. And you can always run Purity of Elts as stated in OP. Ranger builds list: /917964
When two witches watch two watches, which witch watches which watch? If the witches watching watches watch the same watch while you watch which witch watches which watch, they switch watches; then, the watch switching witches watch which watch you watch. Watching witches watch watches is not for the faint of heart... |

In the order I posted, yes. IIR is more important than IIQ, but once you have some decent IIR, it's equally as important to start scaling it with IIQ. That's why it's staggered Andy > Goldy > Andy.

So first off, thanks for the Build!! I have been having a ton of fun with it and its single-handedly gotten me back into this game again after many a league. I have been lurking for a while, but seeing as how you are just awesome at answering newbish questions, I thought I would ask a few that have been on my mind and see if there is any upgrades anyone recommends. Sorry if they have been asked, this thread is getting long.
First off questions: 1.What is the ideal map level per level for best exp? I.E. at 82, what is the lowest map I can do and still get good exp? I assume there is a spreadsheet somewhere but I am having trouble finding it. 2. For jewels, is Projectile damage, DoT, Chaos Damage, damage %, and area damage % completely equal in the damage they give? As in if you had a jewel with the max roll of each, would the damage increase be the same? 3. Are the crafting services to be trusted, or anyone on this page doing a crafting service? Been saving up for a 6 link, and it seems cheaper to pay a few ex in craft fees so I can get the sexy +move speed bow as a base. Buying a pre crafted one tends to add like 20ex to 30ex to the price for a multi mod one, and my cata is no where near level 8. Gearing + tree I read the post a few earlier, and I have been having the same squish problem, under 4K life, I get insta-gibbed. If I read it right, I should just spec out of all the frenzy charges and just take the Sion life nodes. Is there any thing else needed or that I can do to not get killed and is that the best bet? I have also been thinking about dropping the MF for a bit and picking up some step boots and life rings, but im just so used to the MF at this point and starting to break into 77 maps. Also I have been using vaal grace. It helps....a bit? Been thinking about a CWDT with IC as well but not sure how much of a difference that will make. Gear

" 1. http://poetools.com/experience-penalty/ 2. Yes. Although keep in mind you won't see area damage reflected on the tooltip (display bug), but it will still have an impact. 2b. If you want to calculate your actual dps (including Carcass Jack), I have left links to other people's damage calculators in the third post of this thread. 3. I am not, personally, but make sure you deal with somebody who's vouched through someone you trust, or has a link to a vouch thread. (Yes, those +1 vouch votes can be friend-spoofed, but it's better than nothing). If you want to play it super-safe, get a spare bow rolled and ready for a service so that you don't get jacked of your current 5L in case you run into a scammer. I don't want to discourage you from pursuing a service here, but just advising you to be cautious and do what you can to protect yourself. 4a. Replace your amulet with one that has life, and a bit less rarity if you need to along with your int requirements etc. That'll be a bigger difference than you might think. Fifty life on that amulet translates into a net gain of 125+ depending on what you have for total life % off the tree. 4b. As for the tree itself, yes: leave the Frenzy charge that provides eva % per charge near herbalism (will leave you with five charges, still) but invest the other two temporarily either straight into scion life or into the jewel node in Shadow / between Shadow & Ranger (which will help you in terms of maintaining res balance regarding the amulet). With the right jewels you can even spec out of the resistance node you've taken next to the Scion life jewel, as well. Try for life + one damage + one resistance for each of those jewels. I can't speak to cwdt-ic. I don't use it. Jul 27, 2011 - Sept 30, 2018.
