Ranger - DreamFeather Spectral Throw - Clearing the game on a budget. Shaper/Uber Atziri Included. - Forum

Spoiler " Slixta wrote: I've been playing this build since the start of the league. I also decided to try out "The Perfect Form" with this build and so far it's doing just fine. I've cleared a few T15 maps (the few I could get) including Core. I've also been farming uber lab and Atziri when I get the pieces; no uber Atziri as of yet though. I took a very similar tree to the original post with some minor tweaks to suit my playstyle. For example, I took the 18% lightning and cold resist (mainly for the cold resist) by the Scion jewel. I also finished out the Scion life rectangle and took 2 additional jewel slots. This was primarily for the extra evasion and life since I prefer a more tanky build. There is still plenty of damage. If you'd like to see my current tree, it's under FluffyStarfish. I will link my current gear below. There is some room for improvement but overall I'm quite happy with what I have. I run Grace, Herald of Ice, and Arctic Armour. Spoiler I'm very happy with how the build turned out. Whirling Blades is more than fast enough to get around and the increased evasion, free Arctic Armour, and free Phase Acrobatics is awesome from the Perfect Form. Just to give you an idea of my stats, in Crystal Veins, I have 11.5k GMP DPS with no flasks, 32k evasion, and 6.4k life. This is at level 91. Once I pop my flasks and blood rage, I go up to 23k DPS and 74k evasion. If I swap to Slower Projectiles, my DPS changes to 19.6k with no flasks and 39.7k with flasks. can you link skill tree ı cant see your profile Last edited by ExcessivelyHero on Jan 8, 2017, 5:13:18 PM	Posted by ExcessivelyHero on Jan 8, 2017, 5:11:10 PM Quote this Post
Which order should I get my Ascendancy points in for Pathfinder?	Posted by mexteel on Jan 9, 2017, 8:49:17 PM Quote this Post
Hey Mathil, thanks for this great Guide. I got a question about your choice to take the "exceptional performance" passive. Why did you do this? I´m thankful for a short answer. greez and keep up the good work	Posted by Nopesos on Jan 18, 2017, 11:42:33 AM Quote this Post
Exceptional Performance increases the duration of the poison you put on a target. Poison deals 8% of the physical and chaos damage of the hit per second for two seconds before modifiers. with Exceptional Performance, and the two nodes leading up to it, the poison lasts 2.9 seconds instead of 2.0, increasing the poison damage you deal as a 45% more multiplier, assuming the target survives the full 2.9 seconds.

Currently level 85 while following the passive tree. I decided to drop Witchfire Brew for this one instead. Doing that also allows me to swap out of Doedre's Damning and take a ring with Life/Added Chaos etc for more survivability. Overall i just prefer this build over HoWA-variant because this is Life-based and it's faster. I like Hardstyle. Also cats.

just so you know witchfire brew is probably 9000x better than sin's rebirth in this case. #1 witchfire brew gives you huge inc DoT dmg #2 lvl 21 vulnerability gives you 30% more DoT dmg. (its technically 30% increased, but the increase is on the total amount due, which basically means it works exactly the same as a 'more' modifier) #3 vulnerability also gives increased physical damage taken by enemies #4 you do not scale physical damage almost at all, so unholy might (30% physical added as chaos) does not have much effect at all	Posted by xMustard on Feb 17, 2017, 11:47:08 PM Quote this Post

And on top of all, more survivability for builds like these is always welcome. Overall Sin's Rebirth just suits better for my playstyle. I like Hardstyle. Also cats.

Witchfire Brew seems better. I dropped the Point Blank + skill duration to get 3 Extra jewels you can get waaaaaay more out of it. 36proj dmg + 8 proj dmg nodes = 44% + all the other stuff on jewels (life phy dmg and more). Spoiler https://www.pathofexile.com/fullscreen-passive-skill-tree/AAAABAIDAQBeAO4B0QMeBS0FtQZwCC4RLxUgFr8Zjhm0Go0byB9BI_YknSaVKk0s6S2DLlMwcTB8NZI2PTdMN9Q6QjrhPydDMUQNR35KyEt4TZJN406fUUdTu1VLWlJbJmHiYlpirGVNaoxsjG6qbzt07XXLdoJ4DXp_eu97w3-Af5Z_-4azjDaNfY1-jb-bjZ2qnrefbaEiokCi2aOKplemf6iar-uw2LTFtNG1SLXyt7a74702vqe_1cAawuzEosedyAzIFMjcyPDP3dNv037UI9i92sHdqOpi62PtP-1B7YPuDu968W3xivJF9Pj1b_aj_gr-j_66_xA= i am pretty much maxed out on this char now.... leveling second set of gems (almost all 21+1 on Queen) another idea is to switch out the doedre ring for windscream boots. Doedres ring offer nothing except the +1 curse. Windscreem Boots + good ring gets you more useful stats. Now i am tinking about the 30% ST speed enchant. Would it be worth a try over 40% ST dmg?

Does anyone have suggestions for a poison source if you go raider? I considered snakebite, but the 70% reduced frenzy charge duration seems bad (also poe builder hates it). This leaves me feeling like cospris will and a poison gem are my two best choices to get it. So I am having trouble evaluating which opportunity cost is worse: losing queen of the forest movement speed and evasion for the dreamfeathers's as increase or giving up a skill gem slot. Is there another option I am missing? Thoughts?	Posted by thunderingice on Mar 1, 2017, 7:50:32 AM Quote this Post
