[3.10] Brittleknee's Scourge Arrow Trickster - All Content! Delirium Ready!

Wanted to provide a quick update:

I crafted this up in the interim to run Uber Elder in Lieu of Hopeshredder, and I think its a good alternative while saving up for the "big DPS bow" and has resale value:



I'm not using a RoA setup this league and am playing around with various offensive and defensive links so don't mind the gems in the bow.

I died twice in the encounter, the first was getting used to Shaper's new behavior and the second was just one of those shitty things that happen so far. Very easily see this being a bow that can carry deathless runs.

Here's the Highlight: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/444372823
Here's the PoB of what I was wearing: https://pastebin.com/m6wdxCNn

Hit double damage 5 times in 800 alterations but had 4 unlucky annuls. Hope you all are luckier than I am. :)

How did you go about crafting it?
Purely fossils?

This one is something you can do with only alterations! The Double Damage/Attack Speed is a Shaper Affix.

The original bow I used last league included "Socketed Gems deal 20% More Attack Damage" which is a fossil-only craft. This league's bow is an attempt to meet somewhere in the middle between a Hopeshredder and a Fossil-Crafted bow for those who want a little more damage, but can't afford the 25-30ex bow, and don't mind doing a little crafting.

loving the build so far, just a quick question, what defensive skill have you all found to be the best to use CWDT?

I've been using a 20 CWDT with a 20 Steelskin. Seems to bandaid gaps of damage decently, nothing unfortunately feels as good as the old IC used to.

Initially picked up the needed STR on a ring to run it, then was lucky enough to find it on a belt I wanted. The build has no required jewelry uniques (unless doing the Hopeshredder swap, then 1 required unique), so it gives you wiggle room to get enough STR across a few slots as needed.

Amazing.
Thank you so much for this build! Been pretty fun so far.
If when you do get a chance or if anyone would like to give me some advice on what to upgrade next, that'd be appreciated!

The main thing that pops out right away is the helmet. Using a hubris circlet nets us a 5 Evasion per ES due to the ascendancy. My helmet has 188 ES on it which means its actually a 940 Evasion helm with 188 ES, a chunk of life and resists. Its really quite nice. Everything else looks good, you've got a pretty sick belt, too.

I think at this point going for the extra pod enchant + hubris base is where I would focus. Don't be afraid to buy the "base" and do some crafting. I was spamming Essences of Greed on my hubris to get what I ended up with since you definitely want a nice chunk of life on it, no matter what.

Your tree needs a bit of fiddling, too. Its important to go all the way over to Soul Raker with the Claw Wheel, that will allow you to give up that point into life/mana leech you have in the duelist area. Dropping the Balistic Mastery area for Bow nodes, accuracy and Life in the duelist area seems like a win-win. Overall your life is still fairly low, but you're still leveling and gearing. I recommend Dazzling strikes at some point, too. That blind is super nice for survivability. From there you can go up a node and grab Thick Skin and work towards Freedom of Movement if you want a higher chance at phasing on kill and some Movement speed and extra dodge.

If you're giving up Hopeshredder in the future you will be able to re-purpose the points in Survivalist, too. It seems like you're transitioning away from that setup with no Essence Worm equipped anymore, etc.

Awesome! Thanks for the speedy reply.
Currently using this;
Did you stat into a +30 int node?

I can't get enough int from just amulet + quiver to equip a hubris

Yep, I took the node "Wisdom of the Glade" just east of Vaal Pact.

Here is my final tree/gear for the league: https://pastebin.com/TJvNv9n4

I'll probably update the guide here sometime this weekend as well.
