Anyone trying this build in 2.2? What ascendancy class and skills are you thinking of taking (or what dis you take?).

Thanks


I'm doing this as a Champion for the fortify. Should have about 20k armor with grace and IR. I'm also using Lioneye's vision + Drillneck. With the Increased Critical Strikes gem change, it should be relatively easy to hit 70% crit.

Links are gonna be something like IS - ICS - IAoE - WED - AFD - Pierce(from vision) depending on cooperative Lioneye's vision is. Pretty much anything with at least 1G-2B is fine given how many support gems are useful for the build.
Can you please Update the Build for 2.2 ?
Anyone tried linking increased burning dmg to herald of ashe?
I think it's pretty effective and bossting the dmg significantly
Trying this build in HC Perandus.
My current gear is not that good, but still got enough survivability to run low tier maps at level 67.

I adapted the skill tree a bit. My endgame tree will look like this

For Ascendancy I think
Powerful Precision + Far Shot + Endless Munition is the way to go
Except you wann play bloodrage and with frenzy charges.
What do you think about this ascendancy point variant:
Powerful Precision
Fast and Deadly
Sharp and Venomous

So we can go for more CritMultiplier on the tree and get a lot more damage over time if the first arrow doesn´t kill.
The downside is of course we lose se second arrow.

BTW: Increased Burning Damage for Herarld of Ash is a very good idea!

My progress so far...

skill tree

Ice shot has 87% AoE right now, i could get it even higher but i don't see the need.

Also notice that i have 96% pierce chance, which is why i'm gonna switch to drillneck once i meet the stat requirements for my other gear.

I'm pretty pleased with the build so far, i could even solo run the merci laby in the first try, which was pleasantly surprising. I'm gonna attempt a deathless Atziri once i'm confident enough in my skills, should be more than doable.

Some screens.

Hi guys, it took me a while to put the 2.2 version together and I'm still not quite there yet to rework the forum post to 2.2

I have a working level 85 character however, based on the Raider Ascendency and rocking some sick deeps: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfyYa09uny4

When I'm hitting level 90 I'll go ahead and update the thread, also based on suggestions you guys might have.

I'll of course base the build around budget items and a 5l tops, I guess this league I just got super lucky with items...

Hey,
since I never played a Ranger and found a Chin Sol i thought that I would give this build a shot ;) Currently levling with my tabula and deathharp and it runs really smooth.
Since I´m hitting merc around the weekend I wanted to ask which acendancy class would you prefer? First of all I´m following you character rather than the outdated guide.

Acendancy choices:

Deadeye: (link)
Spoiler

Powerful Precision (2 Pts)
Spoiler

- Projectiles have 100% additional chance to Pierce targets at the start of their movement, losing this chance as the projectile travels further

- Projectile Critical Strike Chance increased by Arrow Pierce Chance

Fast and Deadly (2 Pts)
Spoiler

10% increased Attack Speed
30% increased Projectile Speed
30% increased Projectile Damage

-> Ricochet (2 Pts)
Spoiler

Skills Chain +1 times


Thoughts:
Ok with the above mentioned benefits it could free up the Pierce Gem and/or Skillpoints since you don´t have to invest into it. Since we are trying to be as close as possible to mobs anyways i guess we get at least 70-80% pierce chance from Powerful Precision. Another great factor would be the increased Crit Chance since Chin Sol got only a low Crit Chance.
Fast and Deadly would provide us with more AS / proj dmg and proj speed. AFAIK - please correct me if I´m wrong - that the range effectivly get buffed by proj speed. Even if it doesn't its still nice to have imo.
Ricochet imo is really strong due to the fact that we would only use the Powerful Precision to pierce and after that we would basicly get another free extra chain when it doesnt pierce!

Imo other points in the Deadeye tree are not worth it.

Pro:
Initial Pierce -> Frees up Gem Slot and/or Skillpoints

Con:
could be outperformed by other choices


Raider: (link)
Spoiler

Way of the Poacher (2 Pts)
Spoiler

10% increased Attack Speed
10% chance to gain a Frenzy Charge on Kill

Avatar of the Slaughter (2 Pts)
Spoiler

2% increased Movement Speed per Frenzy Charge
3% increased Attack Speed per Frenzy Charge
3% increased Attack Damage per Frenzy Charge
+1 Maximum Frenzy Charge

Quartz Infusion (2 Pts)
Spoiler

6% chance to Dodge Attacks
20% chance to gain Phasing for 3 seconds on Kill

OR
Rapid Assault (2 Pts)
Spoiler

20% increased Attack Damage
20% chance to gain Onslaught for 3 seconds on Kill



Thoughts:
Way of the Poacher would give us a Frenzy generator and more AS.
Avatar of the Slaughter woudl increase our Frenzy limit to 7 (8 if you dont choose Alira).
In addiation to that there is more attack speed/dmg and movement speed which would help us closing in to the enemies faster and therefore increase the clearspeed.
Rapid Assault would push the dmg further due to Onslaught.
On the other hand Quartz Infusion would give us phasing + dodge and would therefore be a more defensiv choice.

Pro:
Could be outperform Deadeye but needs more Skillpoints/Gems to work.

Cons:
IDK XD


Please help me decide xD
Btw I got an alphas alrdy chin sol drillneck the only thing i would need is a carcass now...

I'd really like you going for Deadeye since we could be comparing both versions much better. If you're playing sc perandus we could eventually meet up in a map and compare the builds directly. What do you think?
