Are you running any intelligence gear for wrath? Right now I dont want to sacrifice any my resistance for more int gain and keeping wrath at level 7 dosnt seem optimal to me.

Hi, I have recently made a Ranger and I am loving it.

Now there are a why things in this build I am having troubles with:

- Why Blood Magic Gem over the Node?

- Lightning arrow, weapon elemental damage, life gain on hit <-- Would those be the first 4 gems you ought to use?

Thanks!

Using the node makes you unable to run aura's , aura's are worth more than one support gem.

For LA gem order it depends what you need , if you want to go full aoe damage first do this order

LA , lmp , WED , chain

if you prefer to be more tanky drop the WED for life gain on hit

Oh right, that makes sense, thanks.

However, I am questioning whether to use Chain at this point in the game.

Here's my setup:

LA - LMP - WED - Added Cold DMG(Lvl 12) --> Mana cost: 44 DPS: 508.7

LA - LMP - WED - Chain(Lvl 8) --> Mana cost: 63 DPS 223.1

Now it seems nothing but logical to go for Added Cold Damage if you ask me, but what would you recommend.

Also, I am already having mana troubles using LA for a big group of blues seeing how my mana pool is only 388, so using the chain gem would mean I'd run out of mana in 6 LA's.

The dps only accounts for an individual hit , chain hits 3 times more, making the actual dps be about 670. And 6 LA's should be enough to kill a complete pack of blues anyway.

Alright, so I will be using Chain instead of Added Cold Damage.

Also, why is it that we pick 0 crit nodes?

Thanks for your fast replies.

Crit builds will get you killed on ele reflect, if you do want a crit build I suggest you look for a voltaxic rift bow , but this bow is extremely expensive so I chose to not make my build around it.
