[2.6] The SoulTaxic- CI PoisonFinder TS/Barrage ,Shaper/ Guardians/ Uber / ALL mapmods

Hi, im testing that build atm (terrible gems lvl - yeah, just start using barrage) and im sitting at t12-t14 maps now.
I change helm for more light dmg:

And now im farming for +1 quiver, dying sun, maybe +1 bow. But i have no idea what gems should i use to get best dmg (other in OP items, other in description, people use other too :P )
i roll my chest like this:

and i think good combo is barrage + wed + slower p. + void m. + elemental focus + here is problem, it should be always pierce? if im using it only for boss (5l tornado is enough for trash mobs) iron grip give me (if im correct) more dmg? (so good options are add light if roll blue, pierce if green, Iron grip if red? but its best?)
If you can check that char and tell me what should i change first or (if im doing) something wrong?
And yeah, i have a lot possibility to craft by ring's and that chest (rly overcap res...)

I spent

vinktar - 65c
800 es 6l chest- 4ex 40c
whaler boots - 10c

5l bow - barrage linked (self-made)
dying sun - 4ex

and killed everything just like every poison build should lol

Rings : using self found res with elemental damage with weapons, and a le heup for double dipping and strength.

belt : using bated breath cuz cheap.

don't even have 6l add arrow voltaxic nor add arrows soul strike quiver.
oh, no helm enchant either.

Using 6L TS. swapped void manipulation with chain for faster map clear.



0 Idea how people with so much crazier gear than mine are having problem with this build.

only time I die to things is either 1 shots or me trying to face tank terribly modded guardians.

OP said the perfect gear cost 70ex but you dont need nearly that much to do everything in game,
yet some guys say they cant do anything despite 10ex investment?
So how much EX would I have to invest before reaching high efficiency?


Also, how is normal to dried lake, fast and fun? How is early mapping pre lvl 80/85?

Do you guys use the same skills for levelling as lategame?

10ex should be more than enough to get started. However, the DPS really does increase a lot with a +2 barrage helm and those cost over 6ex for just the base. Before you get one of those, I'd try to make sure you have 20/20 gems (preferably 21/20 barrage), a nice 6L Regalia for barrage setup, a dying sun, some rings/belt with high WED, and a high rolled voltaxic.

In terms of leveling, it really depends if you want to spend regrets or not. You can definitely level as bow based with a Death's Harp/Opus and LA/Blast Rain or something similar. I personally just leveled as BV and respecced later since it was easier for me.

I have over 3400c ( around 37ex. ) to spent on the next build. Is it enough to buy every item and complete the build ?
I have a golemancer but it's not fun so I was looking for a good fun build.

Hi i was wondering if we can use split arrow with this build? Can you explain why or why not please?

Im asking because i have a +3 split arrow helm enchant and dont have the others on a hubris.

So basically would split arrow with a +3 arrow be better or would tornado/la still be superior?


Thank you if anyone can help.

cause if u want a liner atk, LA is the best. hits more times , so more poison stacks :)

read previous posts, people with 10 ex can do everything already , so like 37 is more than enough , just no +1 bow for u... the rest should be fine

So LA/TS is better even without the enchant over a splitarrow setup with the +3 enchant?

How's performing this build compared to signal shot in terms of clear speed and survivability?

Clear speed:

-Dunno, i clear just fine with voltaxic, mobs got 1 shot anyways. But Signal shot should clearing better because they run Herald of Ash.

Suvrvivability:
-Both CI pathfinder. ES almost same 10k,11k with high budget gear.

-Voltaxic safe again ele reflects even when comnbine with -max. Temp chain cursing, faster recharge(soulstrike).

-Less depend on Vinktar so you wont have to worry about 1shot your self when vinktar is off. And you can swap flask for more survivability while keep your clearing speed as high as possible.
