It’s never been a problem for me, but some found it helpful to path into or through Ironwood on the panopticon wheel.
Also I saw this on reddit: “TR ballista champ performed very well for league start until A5 Sirus. Damage was lacking and I had to changed things. Replacing Swift Affliction for Focused Ballista made the build a lot more proactive and allows to spawn pods before monsters spawn.
Something to look into as well as it would pre-spam bosses, apparently, and make the totems shoot faster.
Nice
by the way @Donkster5 is there any support gem you can recommend instead of empower ?
Also to @donkster5 - OR - anyone who can help me understand PoB.

So I am simply trying to figure out how to make PoB show me correct Dot dps . But no matter what bow item i add not much changes. I have been clicking around in the configuration tab but nothing seems to be related.

Efficacy or concentrated effect… or focused ballista according to the one guy. Empower only outperforms other option starting at gem level 3. Obviously 4 is best but probably crazy expensive this league.
I’ll take look at the PoB when I get a chance. It’ll be several hours before I can.

Hey, were you referring to a red support gem besides empower as your chest is corrupted? If so, not really. You could try increased duration and see if that hurts the speed at which things die. It means you'll do more damage but the ramp up time to full dps takes longer and is just a feel thing.
Regarding the PoB, in skills there is a "count" box next to the active skill gem. In this case the TR that is with Ballistas. You need to raise that to 6 as you have skirmish then click "include in full DPS". If you want to see the damage of the selfcast also included, go to that gem setup and click "include in full DPS."
I also adjusted the wither stacks to 10 and overlapping pods to 4 in the configuration section. It showed me between 550-700k dps depending on gem choice/amount of wither stacks.
Just popping in to say I played this build last league and it was a blast. Fast, tanky, lots of damage and cheap! I literally did not spend more than 2ex and was still able to get Sirus down to 25%.
Had I actually spent additional currency to upgrade my gear (and if I were better at dodging) I would have been unstoppable! ;)

Does that help?
Yeah this helps a lot and teaches me how to work out PoB. Thanks!
