[3.12] Hasunic's Toxic Rain / Caustic Arrow Trickster | Leaguestarter | Ailment Immunity | SSF

Played to 70 today. Doing alright-ish, I'm very squish and have 0 ES and 3k life. I assume once I get some ES going it'll feel a lot better, just getting one-shot a fair bit in T1/T2 maps, the new temple, and delirium. I'm using a Quill Rain till I can grab a 6L bow. Damage is great.

Kind of rough for a league start since it really does rely on gear that you're gonna have a hard time getting day 1.

Just get more life on your gear and spec into life nodes

12 hours in, and I gotta say.. Trade is easy

I'm not as far as Hasunic, but I'm having a blast leveling this.

Some notes leveling this:

For up to Act5, a 3L Short Bow with Toxic Rain, Lesser Poison, Mirage Archer is enough to carry you, especially if paired with a Herald of Agony (which you can further buff with links, such as Minion Damage). By A6, I switched away from HoA to the links which are more true to this build. HoA was the only reason to go with the Lesser Poison support, but totally worth it.

Don't be afraid to take the +30 Dex/Str/Int nodes we have within reach if it helps you to equip an item or level a skill for the time being. We do get enough respec points to allow for this.

My current bow is a 5Link with +1 level of socketed gems which I got from trading for a base and Alt-spamming. Idk how much luck was involved in the alt rolling, I got it after a few tries.

In case other people are wary of being too squishy - there's always the option to take Patient Reaper and Prolonged Pain after Ghost Dance and Escape Artist. Hasunics suggested Ascendancy order takes first the two DPS nodes and the the two defensive nodes - that makes the build more durable up to uber lab (and then the two variants are the same).

That is a good option too :) Just requires a good chest/helmet to realy benefit!

I have this bow now and I am strongly considering finishing it and trying to get more dot multi on amulet and gloves. It's pretty cool imo

So if I dont want to use CA, what quiver base should i use? Spike-point? Or maybe Broadhead?
Also thanks. Leveling was great with this build.

Yw! Quiver base doesn't matter to much, but the only thing that provides something useful for tr is sharktooth for lgoh :)

Glad you had fun leveling!

Guys anyone can help me? Can i craft on this bow to get a good +3 bow?
this is 2 prefix, (socket gems + lightning damage) and 1 suffix (extra arrow)
