[3.8] Memoria's Scourge Arrow/RoA Cold crit Slayer [Deathless Uber Elder & EZ 5-way emblem]

"

Thanks for the reply, let me give a little example of the effects of dropping Lioneye's Glare for a base ele bow.

https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Legion/90bPKKtK

I picked the Pandemonioum Fletch for 10c.

end result: 1017k thorn arrow dps, up from the original/default of 864k.

Note: this also further would increase by taking Point Blank which would be much more convenient to path to with the new tree.

If I were to optimize the tree a bit, possibly pick up a low level Precision aura to add a bit of accuracy/crit;
5 points saved dropping Winter Spirit.
+3 points put into Heartseeker
+1 point put into Point Blank
+1 point in 5% max life near the duelist start.

Net result: 1580k dps.

I'm not sure how Lioneye's showed up as your top option, I played around with the configuration and couldn't manage to get it above that ele bow.

Also a small note: that 1580k does count the Assassin's Mark default setup.

If we turn that off simulating a real boss with no amark:
1414k dps.
Replacing one opal with a Coral ring with no damage on it nets you 1481k dps, which is again much higher in practice. So in essence: the 25% ele dmg on your opal, is in fact a significant dps loss vs using an Amark ring and having it up on bosses such as U elder.

-----

I can see the whole experience being smooth even without an optimized setup, because a well optimized SA can get 5x as much dps as is needed for most content in the game.

I enjoyed this build.
Stopped after 1portal deathless shaper with 4k life and basic shit flasks, and T16 chimera farm to get money for the maps/frags/gear.
2days playtime until then (I'm a slow player I know).
Did most Bosses and even shaper mostly with Rain of Arrows (6L) with scourge arrow in 5Link for higher burst while the roa mirror kept shooting.

My issues: Tough map mods and esp. Legion mobs with allies deal subestential more phys dmg get you 1-shot too often in T13+ maps (wasn't able to clear one of those Legions today due to the reduced evasion mod with the phys dmg, got 1-shot 6 times by them, was unlucky though since there were 4 of those rares with that mod. Esp the shockwave mob killed me from offscreen 3 times since he had 2high range for my sa to 1-shot him offscreen, touched him died, rinse repeat).
Incredibly fun until T12ish and insanely strong vs endgame Bosses!
Just for general mapping not my choice. I simply don't enjoy randomly dying.
Still a great build. Would recommend it to everyone who wants to do endgame bosses a lot.

Just a quick question regarding mapping. Do you use VRoA alone with scourge arrow to proc it or you use both VRoA ans RoA ?

For me i dont use anythyng but Scourge arrow, one tapping scourge arrow clears the entire screen and for yellows and legion hold it down for 2 seconds and one hits everything.

Just did Uber elder on a 5 link also, pretty easy fight with a little more dps i could one hit the phases i reckon with enough charge time.
