[outdated] Caustic Arrow Solo Map MFer (20/300+)
Thx for your answer : a friend who plays with pierce gem and is overcapped in pierce chance (110/120 %) like a lot the +1 arrow drillneck.
Have fun. Last edited by benimaru2 on Oct 12, 2015, 12:58:39 PM

Hidden potential has been known to be a great damage increase for poison arrow builds but it doesn't come without it's fair share of drawbacks.
On one side it's hard to cap resistences. Then you can say goodbye to any attempts to make it a good MF build... But yeah, damage wise it goes up like crazy. "The heavens burned

" Capping resistances wasn't too bad - I just made sure to pick iLevel 72+ items and made sure to roll life plus a high resist on most pieces. Hardest to roll was the boots because I wanted movement and high fire specifically - rerolled a bunch of movement high lightning/high cold resist to get thsee, but lucked out with 30 movement speed. Still, could have even more life if I used rare boots but magic gloves. But yeah... you can't effectively magic find with Hidden Potential... it's strictly for leveling. |

Hi guys
I need some advice. at the moment I'm stuck. I have 88lvl. I do maps untill 74. I have 4 exalted orb and about 90 chaos and I wonder what's next. In making changes bother me high requirements for chest and head(STR and INT), thats why I wear perandus blazon with +22 all atrib. Here My few options: 1) made +3 bow(Buy to expensive), but I don't have masters lvl's. Tora(6), Haku & Elreon(7.5) and Catarina(7). I can only wait for lvling masters and then made +3bow 2) I wondering buy carcas jack with only DEX requirements and change belt with resistances(I have one) but still i will be need some str for head(about 20) 3) similar to above point. I can buy Drilneck but i need resistances. Belt can't change because of requirements. I wonder maybe for points 2 and 3 roll some jewel. But I don't now 90 chaos is enough 4) Maybe push lvl to e.g 92/94.But it will be hard with My DPS(7100 without Frenzy). 5) Maybe do maps 75 and waiting for drops with lower requirements for chest and head. But I can wait for this long time. For all the comments / answers in advance thanks Last edited by Slimak1980 on Oct 14, 2015, 7:03:28 AM

I used perandus blazon for a little while, then I swapped for a doriani's (not that i wanted a doriani's but I had one and hey, it's tri-res since it's the physical one). It also gives you strenght so you can easily just swap one for the other but idealisticly you want a leather belt for +life and then extra resists and extra life.
Either way I dunno how you can have problems with strenght at level 88. I am pretty much level 81 with 164 str, 30 are from doriani's belt but that still means 134 from the tree alone. If your helm somehow asks you for more str than this, then what you need to do is swap for a helm that uses dex and does generally the same thing. Still if you really need that str, then close to the piercing wheel there is a 30 str node called prowess, it's only 2 points away from you. As for the bow. I am sorta in the same situation as you. Sorta! I do have a +3 bow and a level 3 empower gem which makes my DPS far higher though it's only a 4L. Still it cost me 2 chaos so it was worth it (You have to be winning the lotery levels of lucky to buy one such bow at that price as those still go for 2 ex but then again if the bow wasn't really cheap I wouldn't have bought it)... I'd say, for now, get an empower gem level 3, you can buy it for 1 ex. Look for a +3 bow with 5L GGBBR (leave out he item rarity gem for now, that goes on the 6L) and also accept only if the bow has the Leo mod for damage overtime (unless you have level 3 leo in which case you can add it yourself for 5 alchs) that will cost you 2ex. Buy a 5L GGGBB carcass jack for 1ex and that is 4 ex worth of gear, but you'll be in the green. From here, try to get enough exalted orbs for a proper 6L bow or you know, ask around if anyone can craft you one such bow at a reasonable price around here. While most people think only of gaining a ton of currency, generally there are nice enough people who actually will be willing to do you that service basicly for the cost or with minimal gain. Something I'd ask for myself as well. I'd really love a +3 bow with Leo's mod GGBBRR with base movement speed and multiple crafted mods for more resistences. But i'm only on 4 ex maybe 5 considering some 50 chaos in store but that is hardly enough to get one such bow even by crafting.

You can get res capped fairly easily through a solid rare belt (tri res), rare gloves (dual res), rare helmet (dual res, int for attribute requirements) and the rest comes from jewels and eventually a dual resistances +3 bow. But you should only need the resistance on the bow once you're pushing to get Carcass Jack.
If you're following the tree that I provide in the guide directly, you shouldn't need strength on gear at all unless you're using some funky gem I'm not aware of (maybe a high level self-cast enduring cry?). The highest strength requirement on gems is 111 with Increased Duration level 20, and you should have about 134 strength on a finished tree. Intelligence should only require about +20-23 or so at most (personally I only need +9 int), which I get on my helmet so as to make getting a gold amulet with explicit rarity easier to work. Without having access to your gear and tree it's difficult for me to isolate exactly what the issue is, but the long story short is you should really only be having minor intelligence problems which are fairly easily resolved. Check the gear spoiler on the main page for how I've got my setup working. I've only taken the 18% Scion Lightning resistance node, which is temporary until I can rework my jewels. Otherwise I'm completely res balanced between gear and jewels and all my attributes are satisfied. The +3 dual res bow is how I got Carcass Jack working easily. Until then I was using this rare chest: As for a crafting service to get the dual res bow done, I'm more than happy to oblige. I will need 6ex total to get it done (2ex for first multimod, 1ex for no attack mod, 1ex for getting +1 all gems, 2ex for second multimod (since we bench-scour to remove the "no attack" suffix in order to free up room for a second resistance suffix)). The caveat is that you will need to provide me with a bow that is already rolled rare +2 bow gems, single stat. Which is covered in the recent pages as to how to get there. You should expect to spend about 60 regals getting it done. Jul 27, 2011 - Sept 30, 2018.

Cool, the harder part is definitly going to be getting the right bow. a movement bow with 6L 2r2g2b is definitly not easy especially because of the colours.

" Firstly thx for comments. 1) I set My charakter visible and if You want can check. 2) If I want drop Thicket Bow with 72lvl(dex, int & str) requirements wich I shoud make map lvl? Thx |
|
If you do level 72 maps the drops are guaranteed to be at least level 72. So tier 5 maps guarantee that any thicket bows that drop are the level you want them to be. Tier 4 maps will drop level 72 items from bosses or magic monsters. Tier 3 maps only drop level 72 items from bosses.
