[3.13]🏹 Poison Barrage-VF / Scourge Arrow / TR PF | Bottled Fortify | The Tankiest Ranger + High DPS
|
Just got to T16 and feels ok even though I'm dying a bit, but still have A LOT of upgrades on gear to be done, so thanks for that!
But was wondering what are the pros and cons of Barrage-version vs SA? Right now SA feels a little clunky to me, will probably get better with explode-chest and more damage (right now I have to channel to 5 stacks a bit to often) but thinking of switching to Barrage or maybe TR. |

I made a fun thing =) Wolfie, question but upon putting on a stalwart defender commander over enduring composure...I actually lost quite a bit of armor. Am I overlooking something? Last edited by Slottm#1159 on Jan 27, 2021, 9:34:31 PM

" Jesus, what a beast. Could you share the method you used to craft it? |

" This may end up a little long - so here we go
Spoiler
Step 1: buy a 6 link ilvl 85+ assassins garb Step 2: Warlord exalted orb the assassin's garb Step 3: Alteration / aug the assassin's garb until I hit endurance charges when hit Step 4: buy a crusader chest with explode (AND ONLY 1 CRUSADER MOD) Step 5: Awakener orb the explode chest into endurance charge assassin's garb: Ended up with an awful mess: Prefixes: 26% evasion/11% stunblock recovery Explode Suffixes: 31dex Endurance charge when hit 23% lightning resist This now became a gamble, as I couldn't say prefixes cannot change, and annul too risky, so I did a beast craft to remove a suffix and get a prefix - 1/3 shot of hitting lightning (neutral) 1/3 chance of hitting dex (ideal) 1/3 chance of hitting endurance charge - worst case scenario, but I could live without that mod It hit the dex, yay! it gave me 10 life as a prefix (even better!) Now the chest is this: 10 life Prefixes: 26% evasion/11% stunblock recovery Explode Suffixes: Endurance charge when hit 23% lightning resist Now: harvest craft aug attack Prefixes: 26% evasion/11% stunblock recovery Explode 10 Life Suffixes: Endurance charge when hit 23% lightning resist Socketed attacks -15 mana Harvest craft remove lightning, then craft fortify on it Prefixes: 26% evasion/11% stunblock recovery Explode 10 Life Suffixes: Endurance charge when hit 120% fortify during focus Socketed attacks -15 mana r/a life til you get a good roll (t4 was fine with me for now, its expensive) Remove defense aug fire r/a fire until t1 |

this is a very nice chest, TY for sharing ! I'm crafting my helmet right now and i didn't wanted to gamble with the -9% chaos rez for ennemies with the awakeners orb thing ^^ Last edited by tracker2013#3076 on Jan 28, 2021, 10:25:21 AM

I'd personally rather have the defense than the -9 chaos res, or in my case I direly needed accuracy - hitting t1 acc helped my hit rating tremendously and I could drop acuity

So in the new POB we're using Determination and Iron reflexes so is it better to use armor based chest like a Astral plate instead of assassin's garb?
Or with Aassassin;s Garb and IR you'll get more final armor than Astral Plate? Last edited by ssampiseth#0297 on Jan 28, 2021, 12:49:40 PM

Astral plate is awesome, but I struggled to have enough strength in my build for lvl 21 determination, let alone 180 for astral plate.

" Mana leech node next to Swift Venom will help sort out the mana issue with Barrage. If you transition to Barrage, don't forget to keep Blood Rage up, grab a Snakebite and a frenzy quiver. Example: What's better: Snakebite with +1 frenzy, and quiver with frenzy chance (Elder) and +1 arrow (Warlord). Some other thing that can be achieved with Harvest craft: Poison Scourge Arrow/Toxic Rain + Blast Rain PF| Bottled Fortify: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2851574 -- Last edited by WolfieNa#3904 on Jan 28, 2021, 2:23:03 PM
