Basically just use any TR/HoA build guide, and mix them together. Same goes for CA. Change anything that was for channeling before over to chaos dot multi or chaos dot.

A lot of people will league start as CA/TR (or one or the other) and move to this build over time. Its not necessary at all. But CA and TR may be slightly better than an undergeared SA build early. Or not. It really doesnt matter.

A good "mix" of the two builds involves using CA as your main skill and TR instead of blast rain as your witherer (is that a word?)

Honestly its very easy to manipulate and move between them.

Thanks. Here's my noob take on Toxic Rain with suboptimal gears stolen from my own Poison-focused Scourge Arrow:

Seems to be OKish with (5 frenzy + 4 endurance charges + 1.25x Fortify, mana was a non-issue) although the gears were mediocre for DoT build. Be also noted that pure DoT builds received some nerf from the cluster jewels (stacking skill duration -> DoT duration). Poison doesn't benefit from skill duration, so we're good.

Thumb up!

And don't forget we have the leveling-up section in the OP as well. Looking forward to hearing feedbacks from you guys. :)

Dumb question, i looked through the build and i see you mention we can pick up three endurance charges and i cannot for the life of me see where you are getting them from. Sorry if i missed it. Are you just crafting the mod on rings and ammy but dont mention that?

There is a new variant I created with Aul's and +2 endurance that cleared the 100% Delirious T18 juiced map x2 beyond quite well. I'll update PoB for those who are interested.

What's the new flask effect duration looking like for the hybrid flask? If it doesn't feel great you could toss in the Retch, it fits somewhat well with the build.

The new enduring cry looks great.

Btw, this wheel isn't new, but Profane Chemistry just looks amazing for this build. Life recovery from flask, max life, and flask effect.

                 PoB 3.11 (Draft)

---

Hi every one,

I am updating the end-game PoB for 3.11. Look like there is some issue with frenzy charge's APS bonus not getting reflected into PoB calculation for me. I'm talking with LocalIdentity1 (lead of PoB folk version) to see if he also can replicate the issue on his end.

In the meantime, if you want to try the build in Standard league, you can get a draft version here:

https://pastebin.com/A2xRuvqq

- Two of the new variants can have a whooping 5 endurance charges + Malevolence and 1.25x Fortify. (if you don't have the +1 charge boot, it'll be 4 endurance charges).
- Also note that some of the passives have been shuttled around in 3.11 (confirmed by LocalIdentity1 himself), Thread of Hopes may not be the way to go.

Besides the frenzy charges, let me know your thoughts on this PoB draft.

Thank you all!
