[outdated] King of the Forest (Crit version)

Hey Guys,
if anyone is planning on swapping to this build I can only recommend it, was alot of fun and served me really well. Im not someone who can play the same build for a whole league tho, so I am selling my whole King of the Forest gear with some pretty nice stuff in it (vulnerability on hit snakebites, additional arrow drillneck, 6l queen, 5l reach, etc.). Either trading it for other gear for a new build or selling it. If you are interested let me know.
Greetings
small question , what as first should i get -drillneck +1 arrow or 6l armour (barrage) ? ? ?

Thanks for this guide and the thread you made at the start of breach, wish i followed it for leveling as it was pretty painful leveling with the bow at the start of the league and farming dried lake for currency to 75~, after the first few items it became very smooth and i have played this build/char more than any other character before and has allowed me to achieve some long time goals this league with getting Headhunter.

I think ive got to the point where its not worth upgrading anymore gear. A couple points i found in playing the build, i started off using chaos dmg jewelry but due to how hard it is to get good rolls i switched to accuracy, life and res rings with open prefix for chaos damage and found that to be better as you can get very high life rolls this way.

I got the final upgrade today with vuln gloves and really like it so decided to give Sin's rebirth a try after swapping out Witchfire brew and i like how its going so far for Maps/Breach domains. Has anyone got any better suggestions on another flask to use which would be better?

Also looking for a better suggestion on gem to use in my gloves as added chaos dmg is wasted on Frenzy? (Can re-roll colours/links so dont limit suggestions)

My big posts on this and last pages are all about flasks. Read them :>

But to add: I didn't like Sin's Rebirth much at all. Its damage contribution is almost the same as Atziri's (and most other available damage flasks for that matter, except Dying Sun obviously), the only real difference is the base - its 100% Evasion, so it gives us a bit of movement speed and, well, more Evasion; but imo, that doesn't solve any problem and there are other flasks that can give a similar damage benefit and offer extra utility on top of it.

The others I've talked about in those posts.

As for your links/gem setup, you can actually optimize quite a bit there by getting the Increased Duration to affect both CWDT/IC and Vaal Haste, and Faster Attacks to affect Frenzy, Golem (yes it does work), and Blink Arrow. You still end up with a vacant slot (in the weapon, the unlinked one) however and I think Warcry is just about the only thing you can fit there that isn't pure utility (like Portal or just level backups/sell gems)

Thanks for the reply ill take your points into consideration and take a look at the last couple of pages in the thread. the main reason the gems are linked as they are is to make swapping boots for wither/spell totem/inc duration a smoother transition so i still have the 2 green in helm for Grace/Arctic armour. Thinking about six linking Reach for LA then stick Blood Rage in the slot that is used by Added Chaos dmg.

Anyone need a 285pdps Reach on Breach?

You can put Power Charge On Crit instead of added chaos to help a bit with power charge generation on bosses.

Would you corrupt LA and Barrage for level 21? Or only Added Chaos?

Any level 21 Gem is pure luxury. Id g with added chaos first, then barrage then LA.
Im so unlucky in this league. In essence I got around 4 six links with 50-200 fuses each. In this league I cant even 5L my opus :(
