☆ [Outdated] Sarang's TS/LA/Barrage Archer | Pathfinder | Crit Bow | Videos | Budget Version ☆
" Hi DrHarvey, I can't really understand how it works. Lets say i receive a source of damage and is more than the stated amount of damage, it triggers immortal call. One scenario will be that my next damage received is null. Second scenario will be that the first damage source itself is null. May I ask which one is it? Because if it is the first scenario, then taking 1 heavy hit will just kill me straight. In this case, having 0.4 seconds with increased duration support, making it roughly 0.6-0.8 second? is it really work well without endurance charges? |

Hi! I was just reading over the build and try to see if i were to make this in a raider version, but as i look through the skill tree, it shows you go into Soul Raker, and im confused why? Is it because of the leech? Soul Raker gives crit and damage to claws. I just think it'd be a waste of points.

" Hmmm - I'm not actually 100% sure. My guess would be that it will not block the first hit's damage but will then block any followup physical damage. I've certainly seen people get one-shot by Izaro who were (I assume as they were HC) running CWDT + IC setups. I've found it useful for mitigating the large amount of phys damage from porcupines exploding near you if you aren't shattering them. Pretty sure then I take initial damage but no follow up damage. As to whether it is worth it............totally depends. It is no doubt better if you can have Endurance charges up but for me at least, stopping to spam enduring cry when next to a large pack to generate the charges is both a pain and potentially worse than just killing that pack from the other side of the screen. However I certainly felt that when I wasn't running the CWDT + IC setup I had more deaths but I don't have any actual figures / data to back that up. I suppose you could also swap from a HoI + CoH + Ass Mark to Warlords Mark. See if that feels good. My advice would be to try adding Enduring Cry to your setup and see if spamming it as you run through the maps seems ok. The endurance charges themselves are quite nice to have although slighly less useful if you are using Vaal Pact as the regen won't happen. If you are not zooming through maps then it might not feel too bad. I would be genuinely interested to find out how the CWDT + IC interaction occurs. If you find out one way or another definitely do let us know :) Edit: This appears to be a one-shot by Uber (?) Izaro which should be all physical. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SW1TqXwJKuw And I assume it is the (now in Std) TarkeMomCat character (judging by flask setup) which does have a CWDT + IC setup in the snakebites: https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/tarke/characters Therefore seeming to confirm that the CWDT + IC does not block the damage from the intial hit.

CWDT - Immortal Call
The internet says you take the unmitigated hit first -potentially killing you- and then you get physical immunity for anything following up. Sorry for my inability to provide proof but this is the only way I've seen it described in multiple occasions. I suppose if it were different, our death rate as tiny, life based archers would be about 5% of what it is now.. ;) So in conclusion, IC is no Divine Intervention (in a general sense) but a defense against the second and third hit that might have launched simultaneously with the first one. You still must survive that. There is also the approach to use low lvl gems of CWDT and triggerable things. Easy way to apply defensive curses for it triggers sooner than a high lvl gem. On my HOWA Ranger I see Enfeeble all the time on enemies. |

Hi all!

" Hi Guidohammer, Your tree looks fine. I assume you are getting heartseeker next? Your Death's Opus could definitely be an issue. That corruption to remove the Crit chance implicit is not......good!!!! I don't know what your crit chance is like. Are you able to hit the 95% crit chance cap with your diamond flask up and power charges? If you are then it's not the end of the world. If you are quite a ways from it then you may need to consider changing your Death's Opus for one with the crit chance implicit in place. A low implicit roll is fine since it's easy to bless up to 50% or close to. When you say you are having problems going above t7 do you feel that is down to a lack of damage, ie: not killing stuff quickly OR that you have too low a life total that you tend to get one-shot fairly often? There are various ways to counteract both so just would want to know which aspect you feel needs the most work. Ideally you can do both at the same time but that type of gear gets pricey!! " I see no reason not to play it now if you want to. I think there is still a good 5 weeks or so left of the Legacy League. I don't think 3.0.0 will bring a lot of changes to this build at first glance. The hybrid life pieces could be a small buff to life. The Weapon Ele damage support nerf will decrease DPS though.
