Duelist - [2.2 Video Guide] Grocery's Fortified Caustic Arrow Duelist! HC Viable! - Forum

" Haaxxx wrote: @Grocery After taking the Fury Bolts and going towards Acrobatics, what would you complete first? The nodes between duelist & ranger or shooting up to shadow for that extra chaos + pierce, etc? Cuz by then, I think you're already using CA in a +2 bow, I think? You mean like heart of oak? The ranger nodes are usually done at higher levels since we get decent amount of life as is.

Fortify should help a lot. with Taste of Hate being lowered in rarity it will eb much easier to get now :) Basalt flask too! Physical damage can be dealt with now much easier as evasion than in 2.1!

Pierce confirmed to have a 29% more damage modifier on it at level 20. Now is used in place of slower proj! For my current builds, thoughts and videos. youtube.com/andypistone www.twitch.tv/GrocerySC	Posted by Grocery#5050 on Mar 3, 2016, 7:56:26 PM Quote this Post

Now is used in place of slower proj! might be worth attempting to swap out Conc Effect rather than Slower Projectiles. the damage is lowered but the clear speed might go up since your AOE is better	Posted by mallow#1197 on Mar 4, 2016, 12:31:12 AM Quote this Post
Hi, Comparing the Duelist/Shadow tree it seems like the tradeoff is the wasted AS starting nodes but the benefit of the Champion tree (30% DoT dmg vs 35% ally dmg). Other than that it doesnt seem like this tree lacks dmg in any other way, is that correct?

You have to take full pierce cluster for 40% pierce since gem is always 50% now, right now you have 30% tree +10% quiver + 50% gem At least thats what i read in patch notes	Posted by artojas#0219 on Mar 4, 2016, 2:43:44 PM Quote this Post
