Warlord's mark? The only use you get out of it are the endurance charges. End charges are nice to have, ofc, but it's a waste IMO to use warlords just for that.

Hey, thanks for the guide. I just started a Ranger build aimed for DoT with Poison and I planned to go for "Fatal Toxin" on the skill tree, so I can get >100% from skill gem + 140% from passive tree. In thet way I can triplicate the base DPS of caustic arrow, which I planned to support with a Concentrade effect, added duration, GMP.I was also planning to use Contagion and bear trap+elemental dmg to support the ranged attack.
Is that viable in your opinion or just a waste of points on the Tree? Thanks in advance Ciao |

" That's a bad idea, since Caustic Arrow deals NO poison damage at all. Look at the wiki, it has "chaos" and "damage over time" tags, and those are the passive nodes you want to take for dps. Poison nodes literally do nothing for Caustic Arrow. http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Caustic_Arrow Also, using GMP with it is a very bad idea. CA should be used as a single projectile, as the clouds you would create from GMP do not overlap, and therefore GMP is a complete waste. 1H+Shield High Block&Spell Block Tank: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868995

Thanks for your answer, I checked CA and you'r right, but what about LMP? I'm using that support gem with CA on a 'chain 1 time' bow and the area covered by clouds is incresed, which is useful for spread mob packs. Is that just visual effect or it is the actual AoE?
Thanks again Andrea |

It's not necessary, you gain nothing with LMP, as you can cover that same AoE just by shooting a single arrow twice. You lose a lot of DPS if you use LMP/GMP because they have a "less projectile damage" modifier, PLUS, you lose one DPS support gem slot. If you use LMP, you will effectively slow your clear speed as you will deal less dps, which won't be compensated by the the AoE LMP would give you.

hey thanks for the guide.
wat do u think about replacing drillneck with the Rigwald's Quills http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Rigwald's_Quills Ty |
|

If you get a max roll Rigwald's quiver, you'd get 50% inc. proj dmg. With Drillneck, however, you get flat evasion, life, plus guranteed 50% increased projectile dmg (40% from the tree pierce chance + 10% from drillneck implicit). Therefore, you'd only lose life and evasion if you used Rigwald's quiver, without gaining any damage whatsoever.

" It's very nice, but it's not essential. You can absolutely do the build without it. 1H+Shield High Block&Spell Block Tank: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/868995
