[3.13]🏹 Poison Barrage-VF / Scourge Arrow / TR PF | Bottled Fortify | The Tankiest Ranger + High DPS

@Wolf :

Thanks for the feedback man, really appreciated it.
The DPS problems i have, do you think it will be solved if i changed my bow to 6L-darkscorn ?
Rolled a few more times and got this:



I believe I can remove elemental damage with any elemental removal mod (?). At least I was able to remove +% to all resistances with a specific element removal.

Then I can just add a chaos and hope for chaos dot and, if all goes well, add life as well.

I think this is the best way, since I already spent too much currency and additional arrow seems to be REALLY rare.

Maim is not that great but it's okish and I cant see a way to remove it without risking attack speed and add arrow.

Finished crafting my final bow. Was excited & wanted to share.

4.2 million single target now, Darkscorn gives 3.8 million.

I got the flat chaos dmg by using harvest bench chaos exalt :D

Next upgrade Malevolence Auls!

Kickass bow!!
Btw, was checking your tree, you gave up on shadow side nodes. And that large ring jewel, is it worth it? Im using Intuitive leap in that slot.
Check my tree and lemme know if I can change it to make it better.

I can't see your character.

What do you use Int. Leap for near the Herbalism jewel?

I use that Thread of Hope because:

1) 28.4% of my total combined DPS comes from the jewels allocated with ToH. Adder's touch & Poisonous Fangs together account for 10% of my total DPS.

2) Each travel node up to Master Fletcher gives only 1.4% of my total DPS. Plus it's a waste of points. This setup allows me to save precious passives to have 1 large cluster, 2 medium clusters & 2 small jewels, while still getting all the nodes on main tree I consider non-negotiable for the build.

3) The only good node in Shadow side imo is Entropy, that gives me a whopping 12% total DPS (with Corruption and minor dot nodes on the way). However, it would cost me 5 passive points. It could be worth it, but you would have to sacrifice 1 medium cluster jewel for sure. Or else give up extremely important nodes elsewhere in the tree.

Managed to record a Wave 20 Simulacrum clear video. I'll share it later once I get back from work :D

Char name is ChrisThrillson

I was using Survivalist, Heartseeker and Acuity. But after reading your reasoning, I also bought one and changed the tree accordingly.

I dont have a +2 large cluster yet so I'm using +1 large, 1 medium and 1 small jewels at the moment.
anyone willing to have a look at my current char ?

https://pastebin.com/yqgpPqVe

this is where i am - just changed gems to 20/20

next steps i have in mind :

- get a quiver with +1 arrow and frenzy charge generation, to help with bossing
- fit in a circlet of nostalgia ( i have some crappy pieces, need to change them with better res ones )
- get focus craft on helmet
- get amulet anoiment and switch to hybrid flask

couple of questions :

I'm a little bit low on life on the tree and I will need points to take small cluster jewels, I was planning to remove elusive from the tree and maybe buy a pair of boots with it, does this sound reasonable ?

I do not really like despair on hit ring, makes capping res a nightmare, I'm considering getting an embalmer gloves with the curse and stick to a rare ring with int-accuracy-resists-life, would it work ?

Curse on hit on gloves is the best. If you check the end-game PoBs, you will see that the gloves have curse on hit. The ring is for accuracy rating and resist.

How should I complete this quiver?

I know this, that I should use "remove life mod, add life mod" via harvest crafting.

What after that?

Been playing this since the league start with varying success. In the early maps, it cleared fast and bosses went down at a decent speed. However, once I hit red maps it was like a brick wall. I can't even kill architects fast enough in Incursion and Elderslayers/Bosses take at the very least a minute. PoB(https://pastebin.com/n3RkRBnS) says I should have around 930k poison DPS with 10 withered stacks, which I feel should be enough to kill map bosses fairly quickly.

I tried upgrading some of my gear. New ring, new bow, new gloves but while it did increase my PoB dps immensely, it was barely noticeable in the actual game.

I'll post my gear below:



Also using Coralito and Witchfire flasks.

I know there are a few upgrades like head enchant, Fenumus and a chaos damage craft on Bow but I've refrained from doing so because it doesn't feel like I would go from "Absolutely horrid damage" to "amazing damage" from that alone. Hopefully someone can point out what I'm doing wrong, otherwise I will likely swap for another build. The survivability, even without fortify, is decent but with shit damage it just ain't fun.
