Current Gear:

I'm wanting to test this build but I dont like to craft things, its possible to find the good items in trade site? I have ~ 30ex, how much would be needed to reach the max potential of the build (or almost it)?

Dang...Is the only way to save this is annul and pray after removing the defense mod ? Im guessing the -15 mana cost is required

Oof, not really seeing a way around this personally. Remove non-attack and augment attack is your best bet at doing it in one go. You shouldn't have to remove the defensive mod either. Mana reduction is the only attack affix on body armor with these influences. It's a 33% chance to hit what you need.

I'm not a pro so you should probably wait until someone else confirms.

Nearing completion. Need to augment speed on my quiver. Looking to re-craft my helm to add -chaos at some point.
The tankiness is there when I'm not trying to get killed. Single target damage started off slow but this build feels like it builds exponentially.

Thank you Wolfie for the in depth guide and being extremely responsive. SA is definitely a different build and playstyle from others I have done in the past.

FYI - I saw some posts about not having chaos damage over time for bow. PM me and I'll craft it for you.

yeah i was originally leaning towards just the - res mod until i realized how to properly craft these helms.

Ive got both now. Seems like a no brainer.

The -res is good for a boss that lets you stand and burn, but those bosses are easy anyway. The "nearby" effect isn't very big so I don't know that you're getting it all that often in practice on fights that have you responding more to mechanics while your poisons tick on the boss.

I ended up deciding to save the awakener orb and craft a pretty cheap hat with chaos resist instead:

yeah i ended up with this. I need to get the life rolls higher but im quite happy with it as of now.

i think your best bet is to remove non influenced modifier/add influence modifier and hopefully its one you can remove, though its tough cause redeemer has a lot of mods that cant be removed but hopefully you remove that suffix and get a prefix then you can wipe it. Or you get lucky and get a warlord mod and its removable.

I yolo'd my chest piece and got lucky, but i dont recommend.

what do you guys think about bottled faith?

i have one but i kinda dont know if i wanna use it... I might stick with oveflowing chalice or a quartz...

So I just made this bow (needs some divines on the added chaos parts though)



I think this might be the best poison bow in the game, at least I can't think of a better combination to get

im currently going the divine flesh and darkscorn route, how much damage am i missing out on?
