[outdated] King of the Forest (Crit version)

I'm going to try this build out and instead of the duelist leech nodes will be getting the new claw wheel with a lioneye's melee > bow gem below it, gives a ton of crit and leech. It seems like the travel to the scion/marauder area is insanely far so may try going up toward witch for the chaos damage/hybrid clusters. Less life/more damage but will be playing LSC so we'll see.

My one big question is why does build use LA over TS most of the time? Is the AoE effect from LA adding enough damage on top that it's much better for clear speed? Started a TS pathfinder earlier and enjoyed it so curious if it really matters which is used.

Pretty sure it's about hitting the whole screen. Tornado SHot is not better at doing it.

Fair enough was just curious as I haven't even done an LA build.

I'm curious about the possible pathing down near Point Blank as well as some boss killer builds have overkill damage already so the loss isn't noticeable for the 50% more up close tradeoff. Are the only builds utilizing this pretty much VP/Vinktar builds that can risk getting that close to bosses?

I'm enjoying this build so far, but it's definitely been tough to get going. I still can't do merc lab due to having a mere 3.4k hp

What should I upgrade next?



Thanks!

is this ring worth crafting flat chaos on it?

trying to build t10/t11 map collection. slow going ONLY because when I finally get a t10 or 11, I dont get another one which sucks.

This build is baller!

Little advice for map Farming. Get more People in.
I started with 3 Shaped Strands invite 5 People from Global and i am sitting at 13 now.
Plus you might be able to get a few chaos for each run or just say you want there Breach Splitter, thats what i did. Sitting at 79 Chayula atm.

Can i take snakebites with lvl 10 vulnerability or lvl 12 is much better?

Is this possible in SSF HC?

Spoiler

Thanks!

I'm now level 77, i did the merc lab at about 74 with this gear (harp and drillneck bought, rest self found, no res capped):

So if you have a good day and the lab has a good layout, merc is doable (i'm a real casual^^).

Just try to look in the leveling section and compare the stats on his gear to yours.

But i have another question: while "everyone" has an opus or legacy rotc, i struggle to afford the 60 chaos to buy the opus prophecy. Also a few pages ago, someone told that he got about 200 chaos just because of prophecys...how...i really want to know :)
i would really appreciate it, if you have some tips for me or adding me ingame (IGN GiftiArcher).

regards Gifti

84 now. My gear




Note the open prefix on belt for movement speed :), and my resists are over capped.

getting better and better very good farming. Probably the strongest build I've ever played.

Thanks.

Thanks for the advise. I dispise running with a full group. Too many "fireworks". Can't see squat, and I just generally don't like my pace being dictated by others.
I have a friend I run with and my map collection is rising now :)

Getting into 11/12 now.
