- When you do Cruel Lab, get Powerful Precision + Q20 Lightning Strike (or best quality you could get). 100% Pierce plus equal Crit Chance.


But does it work with LS?
"Projectile Critical Strike Chance increased by ARROW Pierce Chance".

And what then about Chain? Pierce negates it, and Ricochet seemed much more powerful for this build than just another projectile from Endless Munitions.

And do lightning projectiles of LS return (when Powerful Precision is taken)?


With Q20 LS + Powerful Precision + Piercing Shots you got 100% chance to pierce always. So, even is not the same as chain, is equally good because you hit any mob in all the large area that LS covers (even off-screen).

Powerful Precision works with LS projectile, because "Arrow Pierce" is a stat that includes projectile pierce. So, any "projectile" modifier affects "arrow" stat. And, Powerful Precision not only allows you to have 100% Pierce but in addition, you receive an equal Crit Chance, which is a huge improvement to overall Crit Chance.

About LS return, that modifier works exactly the same as L7 Tora "Attack Projectiles Return to You after hitting targets". This means that any projectile that pierce do not return to you.

Finally, I'm not taking Endless Munitions, as you stated, as no use in this build. I take Far Shot, Powerful Precision, Rupture and Fast & Deadly.
I see now, weapong physical damage is very important
Hey @mas_mariano , can we use Herald of Thunder for curse setup ?
Quick one,

is Raider a viable option? to play more with frenzy and attackspeed?

when no, why?

also, i am using your guide, love it so far. level 40+ 4link already, fun as hell.

Yes it is. Projectile part of LS doesn't count any Melee modifier, but the projectile damage relies entirely in weapon damage.

Hi. I doesn't test HoT with this build, so I'm just speculating:
- You need a lot of INT for L20 HoT, maybe difficult to get with this build.
- Final DPS will be considerably lower than with HoA.
- Maybe range for lightning bolts are not as far as you need with this build. You will always try to take full advantage of Far Shot, keeping enemies at the edge of the screen, for that LS CoH setup is great.

Great you enjoy the build! Glad to read that.

When making this build I consider Raider as an option, but then, everything start to fit on Deadeye.

Right now, I think that going with Raider could be interesting, but will be very different from this one. From damage perspective, you rely on a huge Attack Speed boost, and receive additional great stats like amazing movement speed plus more evasion.

I choose Deadeye because I want a full Crit based build and scale damage based on that. Look all Crit modifiers from Deadeye (Raider doesn't have any Crit modifier):
+ 40% Crit Multi & + 80% Crit Chance from Rupture.
+ 100% Crit Chance from Powerful Precision with always Pierce (this works perfect with a skill attack that easily could achieve 100% Pierce like Q20 LS gem).
+ 20% Crit Chance from other Ascendancy nodes.

But then, I think that Far Shot was extremely good for LS, because one thing that LS has, is a huge range that goes even off-screen. A 30% MORE Damage boost (multiplicative), is just massive. Think that 8 FC charges up gives you just 32% More Damage.

So, I'm not saying that a LS build can't use Raider, I'm just saying that there's a lot to change imo to take full advantage of that Ascendancy Class.
Can please check my profile fearsome_ranger...
I know I need to improve a lot extremely a lot.

Can you provide me for what I can do to get more damage and attack speed.
I just started Cruel..

TY
Is this build viable with Frost Blades instead of LS?
Would you get Rupture before Far Shot or the other way?

Dont have the Bino-Daggers yet and wont get them so fast. level 60 currently.

For me i would say Far Shot first.

Your opinion?
