I don't get how people can think PA is boring.

One pack is dead before I even have a chance to fire my next arrow.

Oh, and the map is done in 3 minutes.

between that and if its Atziri capable, thats all Im lookin for :)

Hope it doesnt get nerfed any.

If it does, it won't be significant.

They let meta builds ride out at least two challenge leagues, historically, before they nerf them. WB/T was the first set of challenge leagues where PA was meta.

We should get at least one more before they brick it. And that's if they do because honestly, it requires a fair bit of investment to get super potent. Unlike Flameblast, which only required a Searing Touch.

For your gear: depends on how much quantity you want to stick with and if you want to sacrifice survivability to get it done.

If you want full res balance + MF, you need a rare tri res chest or Carcass Jack, dual Andvarius rings, a rare tri res belt, and rare gloves with dual res and rarity.

You will probably need to find room for intelligence on either your amulet, helmet, or glove slots. +20 should more than cover it.

For the bow, if you want to craft one like mine:

* Multimod
* Two resistances
* Leo DoT

Hey,
thanks for your response. Just found this one : https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/2xn0xq/analysis_on_the_effectiveness_of_increased_item/

So I think i will only take the Goldwyrm Boots with 28% Quantity. Should be enough. In fact of Rarity i will aim for 200-300.

Will go this way: replace gloves/boots -> craft bow -> 6 link bow -> replace chest armor. Oh my gosh, this will take forever :(

I have a question about the multimod. Is it removed when i am not happy with the resi roll on a bow and choose "remove crafted mod" or can i choose which one i would like to remove? Never had more then 1 crafted mod :D

Bench scouring a multi-modded item removes all the mods crafted. So in this case if I bench scoured the bow I linked, it would reset it completely to just +2/+1, removing Leo DoT, both resistances, and the multimod property.

You need to use divines to reroll a multimodded item (technically, you can also just bench-scour and multimod again, but that makes no sense :P)

And how many divine will i need to get the +2 again? :D

Just saw that the roll is between 21-25% So in worst case i will hav -4 of max. resi on the Bow. I think this ist not sooo fatal :) So i will keep what i get :)

Divines won't re-roll +2 bow gems to +1 bow gems.

Divines only reroll affixes within their tiers. Ie, fire resistance 42-45%. So if you divine a 43% fire res roll, it will end up somewhere within that range.

+2 bow gems is on a different tier than +1 bow gems, so it remains static. You can divine as many times as you like and your bow will remain +3.

Ah, ok thx! Didnt know that +2 and +1 are in the same Tier.

Today i will start to farm with my coc shadow, because it's at the moment much much faster. I wonder how long it will take to get everything i need :D

A little update again. Alright, so I changed the gear a little, but I don't know if it will stay like this. I decided to pickup a different bow with +6% movement and then go with the Aurseize for the 49% rarity. After picking up a different helm with more resist I'll be back to res capped even after dropping the res completely off the amulet. Which means I should be able to get a 60+ rarity high life ammy. Total, this will put me at around 260'ish iir before the rarity gem or flask. What are your thoughts?












Little story behind the bow. I sold my old 6L +3 thicket with no res. Then I bought this one with dual res, +3 4 sockets for probably way too much. However I used 73 jewlers to six socket it and then 19 fusings to six link. So this is now my lucky bow =]

Pretty awesome bow. I'd grab an exalted and add a last mod to it. probably it's not going be be anything good but who knows how far your luck will take you?

Other than that I only see 2 points in which you could try and better your build. One being an amulet with explicit MF and not just implicit and a life belt with a high added life roll as well as tri res.

Edit: Oh and probably 70% andys.

Just popping in to say I agree with El although if you're looking for a boost to survivability I'd switch to rare gloves with life and IIR.
