"You can try it and tell us the results. But I don't expect it to be great, 1. poison builds scale weapon damage since poison scales off it, so their attack ballistas will do more damage than here 2. withering touch support is only 25% chance to apply withered so you'd need 4x as many totems to stack it as fast as wither totem on average, and wither totem with multiple totems is 3 totems, so I don't think this can happen. "I'm not sure if there's any way to get good corrupted nodes (it's mostly luck), now where to put it to not ruin anything in the main build, probably either on point blank or pain attunement, whichever costs fewer points to reach. You don't want to ruin acrobatics and on perfect agony you will corrupt Method to the Madness that will probably end up as damage loss. "Yes, both damage over time multiplier and the chaos one (crafted) stack, this is a very good bow. Not perfect (I think the damage over time can roll up to 35% max?), but should serve you well until you decide you want to try for the perfect / multimodded one. |

How should I craft these gloves further?

I am having so much fun with this build and I didn't even invest in most of the end game gear.
This just dropped: At first look, it would appear that these are the perfect boots for this build, but the price on the marketplace is pretty low. What am I missing? Is it because there aren't any resistances on them? |
|
" No resists, and Elder boots with unconditional spell dodge are better than “while phasing” for QOL. And the evade bonus during Onslaught is local not global, so you can probably match or exceed that on your Elder boots with a good base as well (and 200 evade is noise compared to flasks, ascendancy, etc bonuses). |
|
That makes sense, thanks! I guess the only remaining question is...
" I want to say that you want to keep Concentrated Effect because it doesn't require you to always be on full life, as sustaining full life that might be difficult when it matters most (for strong bosses). But in the bossing videos, most of the time the character is on full life so I am not sure. |

Thank you for this well written build. I'm able to spend a few ex on this and curious to see what I can scale this to. So far comfortabley farming t16 maps. Even defeat Sirus without any issues (after the patch though).

It's almost hard for me to believe a whole week passed before i logged in once again. I've had a great time interacting with my friends and playing some singleplayer games. Starting to go back on the track again and probably about to roll bleed bow character.
Most questions were already answered and Viktranka was on spot every single time. Despite that i'll answer some of the already solved problems people had. As a reminder i'm not doing gear checks because they take ages and it's very easy to do it yourself. " Faster Casting can be alternative to Increased Duration. Spell Totem - Wither - Multiple Totems is a must, that support gem is simply ridiculously good. " With recent changes to boss and monster life values, focusing on getting level 21 gem is way to go. Quality is extra bonus of low importance. You can farm 20/20 CA gems for corruption later. Yes, 1 Gemcutter's Prism = 1% quality on gem. " Viktranka is correct, Assassin's Mark is just pointless for the build. Temporal Chains or Enfeeble are much more valuable. Poacher's Mark or Warlord's Mark are also better candidates (for easy charge generation). The biggest issue is increasing curse limit to 2 without using up subpar items or giving up annointment. The easiest way to get 2 curses is... Awakened CoH. Once again, the ring is pointless for the build. It's best suited for crit poison builds. " If it didn't work i wouldn't be using it. The amount of damage you get per point is incredible. " I didn't play around with the jewel to be fair. In this particular case you're not achieving anything useful, really. Extra dodge is always nice and you also waste jewel slot (2/3 points taken away). In short, losing 40% dodge in order to save 1 or 2 passive points at best is absolutely not worth it. You would need to take something extra to make it worthwhile. " I don't see much point to list crafting bases for other gear. When i list a base it means it's the optimal choice. Amulet and belt is the best example. For other gear it's less important like for gloves/boots/helmet - you should already know that you want evasion based gear in general. When it comes to rings it's entirely up to you which ones do you want to craft. " How can anyone tell you that with tens of thousand of possible combinations? Glorious Vanity should be used primarly to get amazing defensive keystones, for that you should slot them near Perfect Agony or Point Blank keystones. " Withering Touch will never beat Wither when it comes to reliability and speed of stacking the the debuff. For poison it makes sense, for chaos DoT builds that aren't poison you should never do it. " Multicraft and call it a day imo. " Outclassed by Atziri's Step and elder/redeemer influenced boots. Evasion rating increase is global making it very good defensively, but at the same time we already hit the cap relatively easily so... Not worth imo. " That's your choice. Both have pros and cons. Currently i'm leaning towards Conc Effect personally. It's much harder to stay on full life this patch. https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3053600 - My Guides

" I play your build and thank you for this one, it`s great. Though I`m only in process of dps scaling (slow player and don`t have much time to farm a lot), but I played a little in POB and using two jewels Thread of Hope can boost damage a lot. In price of 300 HP did +300k dps just on jewels. 1 jewel (medium ring): Disciple of the Slaughter Fury bolts Disciple of the Unyielding Bravery + 10% increased maximum life 2 Jewel (large ring): Master Fletcher King of the Hill Aspect of The Eagle Link to POB -> https://pastebin.com/G6ePe2yM Last edited by THATISDNA#0217 on Jan 17, 2020, 8:24:16 AM
