Ranger - [3.0 HC/SC] The ORIGINAL Hybrid HoWA ST Raider [ALL CONTENT] [2:45 Shaper Run][Vids Included] - Forum

" Vandalain wrote: Hey just wanted to post my personal progress so far on HHC with this setup. Currently 88 and thoroughly enjoying every aspect of this build. Current gear setup: Spoiler Which puts me at 4638 hp, 3247 ES , 1494 usable mana 2989 total mana. 965 int, 242 dex. Would love to hear any gearing/tree suggestions anyone may have. Still unfortunately on a 5 link but the damage so far is more than enough for clear and for bosses. Sitting at about 15k GMP hideout which goes up to around 40-50k combat buffed. Still finishing out the frenzy nodes so that damage should jump up by a lot. It can definately be tricky finding gear on HHC but with the proper poe.trade parameters you can find what you need, whether or not its wildly overpriced is another matter entirely though. Most expensive thing I've got is probably the vinktars but it was farmed up on my summoner. I do have an ilvl 84 hubris with deceleration enchant that I've thrown maybe about a dozen shrieking spites on but it's all been pretty garbage so far. Also have corrupted maybe half a dozen pairs of shapers touch but so far its all been white sockets/no change. My main goal at the moment is to get a 6l because while the dmg, for me currently, is still solid on a 5l I'm sure that will change as I push the character into the 90s and red maps/end game bossing. Like I said really enjoying the playstyle. It's fast, responsive and overall extremely tanky. I especially like the layered defenses namely Soul Tether. Gods bless the supporter who came up with it. The only thing that truly feels threatening is chaos damage at this point. I've come to fear the essence drain rogue exile as a matter of fact. Which is why I'm really trying to itemize in atleast one roll of chaos res so that with a promise up I can be close to 0%. Thanks again for sharing the build. Thanks for the update Vandalain! Ya chaos damage can be dangerous. MoM and having a decent amount of mana regen helps counter the chaos DoT somewhat, but the danger is that you may run out of mana if you're not paying attention, after which your HP globe can drop rapidly. Good call aiming to get at least 1 piece of gear with +chaos res. Tree-wise I think the next 2 points you get should be spent on getting Mana Flows. It'll provide you with even more eHP (more than 2 x 5% HP nodes), DPS (coz of the INT), as well as mana regen. I see that you're leveling an enlighten gem in your off-slot which is good as it'll reduce your wrath mana reservation (and increase your unreserved mana pool for a higher damage buffer). Small stuff like getting higher rolled fertile mind jewels will also increase your DPS and eHP slightly. Aside from that, you're right in that your next major upgrade will come when you finally get that elusive 6 link. You're welcome!

You're sitting at 49k GMP DPS in hideout which is pretty damn good to be honest! My DPS is higher than yours because I have more gear with INT (your chest and rings are lacking INT) which brings my total INT to approximately 70+ more than yours. I'm also level 98, meaning that I have 7 more skill points to use compared to you, and my gems are 21/20 whereas the majority of yours are 19/20. If anything, I think its your survivability that needs improving. DPS-wise you're definitely in very very comfortable range. Edit: just to point out, you have an extra dex node at the bottom right that you can respec out of for something more useful.

Hey, have you thought about using vinktars+retch and scion slayer? you'll gain a great deal of lighting as chaos which you can then boost with wither. IGN: TsuruyaNyro	Posted by Suzumiyaharuhi#1589 on Oct 5, 2017, 2:34:22 PM Quote this Post

Hey I have considered that, but I don't think the boost from the reflected chaos damage would be more significant than the reliable frenzy charge generation from Raider as well as the QOL from elemental status immunity, especially as it would also require an additional wither totem setup which would take up gem slots. On another note, edited the title a little bit to lend support to Arkuza haha Build of the Week 14 The first Righteous Fire/Non-Shavronne's/Shavronne's HC Shameless self-proclaimed theory-crafting extraordinaire and forum crusader	Posted by Invalesco#7360 on Oct 5, 2017, 10:04:43 PM Alpha Member Quote this Post
I plan to start the build with HH. Is it still worth to go hybrid ? Dropping soul thether makes us cannot leech to ES so i wonder how it’s gonna be like. In that case, which variant I should go for?	Posted by Juraiz123#2364 on Oct 5, 2017, 10:07:03 PM Quote this Post

In that case, which variant I should go for? Hey, if you plan to go HH, I would recommend going HP/MoM. I did that myself and it was more effective than going pure HP alone as you'll have a larger mana pool to spam ST with, and you will need that mana pool with the attack speed buffs from HH. If you're interested, I can record a beachhead run with HH and HP/MoM so you can see what it's like. You can still gear as per HP/ES, ie with ES gear, as you never know when you might wanna do some bosses to break the monotone, and replacing HH with Soul Tether temporarily will add bonus survivability for bosses.

How can you sustain your mana if you're not using mana flask ?
