Have to say I was heartbroken last night after my first attempt at Chimera. Studied the fight, knew he was poison immune, had no idea it would gimp me so badly. After Blinking amd Decoying as well as I could I eventually ran out of portals. I just mever could get my Dps to take off like it does when it has poison behind it. Guess Hydra and Chimera are off my list of possibilities with this build. Super sad as I really hoped I could just spend all my currency the rest of the league min-maxxing this build.

What I did about this: just buy the completions on 820 trade. Corrupted ones go for like 5c atm.

And then sell all the Chimera/Hydra maps, or even all t16 in general (I'm going for XP atm so can't run the risk of dying at all).

Yea thats basically my plan. Shaper is not poison immune right? Or Uber Atziri? Those are on my to-do list. Taking a short break from this to throw together a Pizza Sticks character to hopefully fill the small gaps this build cant complete. Uber Izzy, reg Atziri, and phoenix are already down. Gotta go for Minotaur next. Cruising t14 and 15 maps without any issue really despite a dumb death here or there. Currently lvl 91.

do you tend to grab the frenzy charges once you can use the posion on hit gloves? doesn't make much sense to really use frenzy till then in this build as it;s not like you're relying on damage from it, are you?

Any advice, please? I'm just leaving it for now, but obviously will grab it sooner if it's more important than I first thought

Can one target be hit twice by the secondary shocks from one single lightning arrow with multiple projectiles?

Infinity as long the target still alive, which make this skill so good.
*just tried tornado shot yesterday due to reflect mod, but the skill feel lack of dmg compare to lightning arrow. Only good thing for it is able to clear and kill bosses.
Thumbs up for OP choosing lightning arrow

I would urge to use the glove as early as possible(reach lvl requirement) can get it easily as low as 1 chaos. The sooner you learn and get used to the playstyle, the better your endgame will be due to practice.

And there is no neex to gran frenzy charge & duration node before using snakebite. Before getting toxic delivery, poison is about 15-20% of your dps, after you took it, its 40-60% of your damage depends on your crit. So its significant I would say.

I saw your post before but its abit confusing and hard to give advise. Please post your current gear and state your question again. About pierce chance, you should have more than 100% if you follow the passive tree. You need to take node on the middle right (piercing shot) and sufficient nodes to get 100% pierce chance. Make sure you check it under your skill, not basic atk.

Urge to follow OP exactly until tested and knowing what you are doing.

I currently have a level 78 Assassin going down this build, and recently chanced a skyforth and have about 30ex left after a few upgrades. If I was to dump it into this character, what would the best upgrades for the biggest buck be for me? Char name is JobinTobias.

Seems like everything is going to be a couple exalts at this point and I want to make sure I snag the ones that can get me farming higher tier maps quicker. I also need to do to merc and uber lab for my pts.

Thanks!

So when you have max frenzy charges up, you poison enemies, but where is your chaos damage coming from? You need to have the added chaos damage to both of your lightning arrow and barrage. The life on your jewels could also be fixed. As well, you're missing both ice golem and decoy totem, which adds critical chance and boss survivability respectively. You should look into getting a death's opus as your second upgrade upgrade though right after added chaos gem coming first, and then 5/6 linking both the bow and qotf to get your damage up.

Your profile isn't public, so I cannot view your char. Gratz on skyforth.

Sequencing for upgrade already posted by OP:
Opus 5L + chest 5L(or cheap 6L) -> Devoto -> decent rare -> 6L QotF -> chaos craft jewellery -> +1 drill neck -> reach -> dying sun
Final optional piece are +2 barrage Devoto and vulnerable on hit glove.

If you have alot of currency, I would defintely finish basic uniques(devoto/reach/snakebite/qotf) and get at least 1 6L. (Try to get best/high roll on qotf below 10c, high AS reach or just divine yourself)
Then I highly recommend to get near perfect rare of boot and belt, to maximize resist you get from there so that in future crafting accessories with Envy will be alot easier. Boot around 2-7ex, belt less than 30c.
Then its chaos crafting time, and get good added chaos gem (at least 20/20 for barrage, to save hassle just buy 21/20).

I currently stuck at this stage, and still corrupting glove for vul. I got +1 drillneck though. I personally didn't use any unique flask due to my devotion to surgeon flask, but dying sun is really good(better than +1 drillneck IMO)
