.
@TristanKMF: I prefer Belly but that chest is surprisingly good in some situations like Lab. I would never wear it to do Atziri for example (it procs too often), but for slower, isolated fights it's a decent choice at least.
@arbitre: My stance on Windripper is that it's pretty bad. I tested a lot of different setups with Legacy Windripper, honestly it is unlikely to come to the damage numbers this build can produce. But you could do it. If you drop the bottom half of the Bow Wheel and focus on getting to Forces of Nature, with adjustments it could be pretty good. Lioneye's Chest is a strong chest, but I left it out because coloring it is a trap and you need some heavy investment to get those off-colors. @HunterKristi: Of course. In your AOE skill, just drop GMP for Increased Crit Strikes to bring the Base Crit Chance up to par with other bow. Reach was where I originally came back to playing more bow setup, it is definitely op. Especially with Barrage, free +4 Arrows makes it an all-star. If you got double-Legacy it's insane, even single-Legacy is still very very strong. @RaiseTheSteaks: Preference mainly. For my end-game setup I like Dying Sun, Vinktar, Silver Flask, Diamond Flask, Quicksilver. If you got high enough Crit Chance, drop the Diamond Flask for Taste of Hate and it's pretty well rounded. Affixes to look for, since we don't have Master Surgeon, then your Silver/Diamond gotta have Staunching on it. I use Warding as the other affix as a nice luxury. Quicksilver Flask ofc of Adrenaline. @Link1275: Honestly depends on if you need affixes. Early league if I'm ever starved for STR I go with Heavy. Eventually I transition to Rustic, or even Leather if I feel like I want a little more Life. Will fix the Bow setup soon... looks like with the patch update, I originally Linked my Bow with LA, then changed gems, and linked TS, but the update must have reset it. Fake Temp League Elitists LUL

" Ok, Thanks alot for advices. I try to get a Lioneye's/Belly already correctly colored, and another Bow Like Voltaxic in the future. You could tell me that bow would be a good option? (and that is not too expensive) GL & HF ^^ Last edited by arbitre#2200 on Mar 16, 2017, 7:00:50 AM

Hello, I have a few questions.
1) I'm using a CWDT + IC + Arctic Breath, are there better options? 2) What bow is the best one? I have both a Death's Opus and a really good rolled Lioneye's Glare 3) I'm using Herald of Ash + Hatred. Should i switch the HoA for the Ice one? Thanks in advance |

How in your opinion should go the transition to guardians/shaper content. Like how and when should you change to pathfinder? Since it's better for them. In other words, how to switch from this build to your bruiser build? what are requirements for that? When i finish uberlab, should i consider switching to pathfinder straight away without spending asc points in raider ascendancy.

Hey there, thanks for making this build. Just starting to map now. I'm wondering if I should go lightning arrow, if that better matches your gear choices or not, such as Vessel of Vinktar, or if tornado shot is just as viable. I found following Neversinks build originally, LS dropped in damage quite a bit from TS.

I just wanted to compare this build vs voltaxic poison as a league starter and results are clearly in favour of volt, i compared 5l 280pdps, 8.5 crit phys bow(around 1 ex) vs 5l good rolled volt(around 35c). While vs t14-t15 packs they go head to head, maybe even volt is worse because of bad crit and hoi is much better for sustaining power charges. But vs bossess it was total domination by voltaxic , mainly because of poison double dipping and wither totem (which is super good and underlooked).
So for low budget volt is better, for high budget good dps phys bow should be better. Especially vs chimera and hydra which are poison immune. Luckily switching from poison crit volt into your build cost only 12 regrets, and gear isnt that much diffrent : obviously bow, also signal fire, and gloves (i use snakebite for poison and frenzy bonuses) |

Is using the phys conversion Vinktar version good if i am not using the phys to lightning gem for my 5 link? Or do they add anyways. Thing is this version is a lot cheaper than the penetration one.

" Qotf is good for fast mapping, especially when you are raider (60% eva from ascendancy). It needs jade flask of reflexes to shine. Personally i dont like it because as raider its not that hard to get 200 ms without it. Belly vs kaom is all about your playstyle. If you use barrage and la then you have to belly (need 2nd link) but with ts kaom is ok. Personally i like kintsugi best, especially vs guardians. With good gear its possible to get 5k hp without belly or kaom, and 20% damage reduction is better than bigger health pool. Also crafted evasikn chest are ok too, especially that 5l white chests and shrieking essences are cheap and they provide 110hp, im currently using selfmade tri res chest with 110hp and because of that i could get better affixes on other items (instead of res) Tldr budget : eva chest using essences La and br : kintsugi or belly Ts : kaom Insane mapping, bad vs high tier boss : qotf |
