The only thing more dangerous than the Beyond League Mod is

the Server Lag Mod. :-)

There are very few bosses that will do that, even if you're running an extra damage map, insofar as you are above 4.5k-4.8k life.

Even the Tropical Island boss could one-shot you if you have 3k life.

@ Elhazzared, re CWDT
Good call. I totally forgot about CWDT-Imortal Call. This will bail you out of deaths and is extremely helpful in a leveling-focused build IMO. I've reworked my gems to include this in my build. Thank you!

@!Serlth, re Life
I totally agree. Although, as Elhazzared points out, some bosses will one-shot you pretty much regardless of health (although some insane builds can AFK face-tank most of the current content - with gear which is simply unnecessary/unaffordable for most players) - there definitely seems to be a life sweet spot where, so long as you're not face-tanking, you'll survive all (or virtually all) encounters. 4.5K to 4.8K for higher tier maps seems about right. So getting at least 4.5K life in this league seems absolutely necessary if you want to level to 85 in a reasonable time-frame with a PA build.

I'm currently sitting at only 4K life... but my next 5 levels are definately going to be spent on life nodes.

I'm currently lvl 70 and loving this build. I'm focused on leveling right now but I'm getting annoyed with how long it takes me to take down chaos res mobs. I was wondering what skill everyone would suggest using to help take down the chaos res beyond mobs faster. Everything else dies relatively quick with a +2 bow and no empower.
If you are cursing with vunerabillity that really is all you can do unless you want to also add a flame totem to the mix. If you do go that route, you might want to consider putting faster casting, culling strike and item rarity in which case it will also save you the item rarity slot on the bow for an extra damage support gem.
"The heavens burned
The stars cried out
And under the ashes of infinity
Hope, scarred and bleeding breathed it's last."
@Elhazzared thanks, I'll test out flame totem tonight and see if how much of a difference it makes.
Vaal Lit Trap + Increased Duration for me, although once you have the gem levels with +3/empower it's nowhere near as bad except for rare mobs.

First of all, thanks for good guide.

I am now leveling this as my first real MFer (currently mere level 25) and it seems like the Silverbranch gives a nice boost in leveling speed:

The +1 to bow skills is worse that +1 to all obv, but the 10 mana on kill is a real winner here.

What do you think of it? Can it be used up untill +2 Bow skills weapon for pure PA leveling?
Sorry if this was covered somewhere, but 180+ pages are beyond my patience =)
