I was thinking what should i change now.

Have few ideas.

1. Buy corupted empower lvl 2 as replacment for culling strike. It cost around 30c
2. Save currency for carcass
3. Drop inc are for item rarity (when i do it i should have around 18/200)
4. Buy second andvarius (i'm close to cap res with 2 andvarius need better amu)
5. I was thinking if its posible to run grace, clarity and arctic armor ( 12% from tree will be enought ?)
6. i was thinking to pick up +7% chaos res in tree now i have -40 and its litle scary on tempest.

I'm lvl 76 now have around 4,4k hp and near 7k dmg with 6 frenzy up.
I'm usually online at 18 gmt +1
looking for someone trustworthy with Leo lvl 3 to craft damage over time on my bow for a small fee

please whisper me: Ancient_Methods
What should be the next upgrades to aim for? here's my current gear
Spoiler




My hp is only 3.8k at the moment, but i could get it higher with a few better jewels and some gear

A +3 bow with leo mod would be the obvious upgrade, rest of the stuff i've been trying to find upgrades for but it's hard to do it without messing up resists(i am currently using 2x 10% allresist jewels).
Hi Serleth, this is my variation build of your *HC recommended build* : https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAwIAAF4A7gMeBS0FtQYjCC4M8g-rFSAWvxmKGY4ZtBvIH0Ej9iSLJpUqTSpbLOktgy5TMHEwfDWSNj031DpCOuE-zz8nQzFHfkkTSshLeE2STeNRR1FMUuxVS1oaX7Bh4mKsZU1sjG1sbmluqm87dO11y3aCeA1673vDfVuCXoLkhMWE2YazieCKr419jX6Nv5ARkx-XBpuNm7WdqqXLplesR7TFtNG18re2vTa95r6nwBrC7MMzwzrEosgMykrP3dNv037UI9X42L3awd2o44TmWOpi7T_tg-968YryRfaj_o8=


I would like it if you could take a look at it. thank you very much!


Best regards, Chivas


Those are my items so far, i know that i need to get +3 bow aswell.
One does not simply get into PoE Closed Beta.
I notice that on the level 89 tree that "Cloth and Chain" is not selected. Is this because we get the resists from sentinel and on jewels?

The + %evasion seems pretty good though and I'm gonna need more res for some advarius love I think hehe. Why do we not take Cloth and Chain? Is it not worth the two skill point investment?
guys,

What's the trick to keep Frenzy Charge up? I can't seem to keep it up for more than 30% of the time.

Thanks

Blood Rage. But I personally just have a habit of firing off frenzy shot every 5th or 6th PA shot.

currently my iir count is 300+,

My question to the author is ,is it worth trying to make my bow a +3 now?or should i try to farm for the goldwyrm?

If i can't get it to +3 is it better to work with +2 for the time being?or + 1 is fine enough? ( my empower needs roughly 20% more xp bar to be filled to get to level 2)
the most important question *** If i want to craft my bow should i just keep spamming Chaos on it or alt/aug/regal/scour? ***

Another question .....why do you use a 'level 1' frenzy for the barrel breaking thing ?
Thanks for the help in advance,and my apologies for my english 'expertise' ,lol, that's my 4th language .I am from india .


a) With that high IIR, I'd go for a +3 bow. You can afford to not have quantity for a while.
b) Scour the bow, and spend some alterations going for +2. Gem levels are critical.
c) If you're going to craft, check the FAQ. There's been a method discovered / released to crafting +3, guaranteed, using Catarina level 8. I've detailed it there.
d) Level 1 frenzy is all that's required. Gem levels to Frenzy only increase base physical damage. We deal no physical damage, so a higher level frenzy just results in increased mana cost, and nothing else.

As your clear speed improves, you'll sustain Frenzy charges longer. It also depends where you're at in your tree and whether you've taken Frenzy charge duration nodes.

But the Frenzy COH setup is part of the sustain as well.

i'm a level 85 ranger, using your build, and i was wondering how i can improve my character, since i don't think i am even close to full potential. I know that i need a drillneck, andvarius and goldwyrm, but i don't have enough currency to buy them or enough luck to find them yet. I would greatly apreciate and advise from you. Thank you for the build, it's awesome so far!


Basically, stack as much IIR as you can, and utilize jewels as necessary to free up resistance so that you can use gear with higher IIR rolls and still keep res capped. That said your gear (minus an exception, see next paragraph) actually looks reasonable other than the Topaz ring, which you should swap out for a gold ring with explicit IIR.

On a glaring note: Soul Strike does nothing for the build. Flat Chaos damage has no impact at all on the cloud damage. Replace that with a rare quiver with life and resistances, which will make it a lot easier for you to swap that topaz out.

Ooh, Tempest. Yeah, my recommendation for Tempest setups is to actually only use one Andvarius, in order to make resistance gearing easier, and utilize Aurseize gloves instead. That way you can get a ring with chaos resistance on it and probably swap out your helmet / amulet for a similar one with chaos resistance as well.

You'll dip a little bit on your net IIR, but it's worth it for the survival-ness.

If you're going to run AA, you will need to drop down to a level 5 clarity or so but yeah, it will be enough. For future reference, you can use the Aura Calculator here to help with determining that: https://poe.mikelat.com/

Everything else about your thought process is solid.

@Dele: You're pretty much good, man. At this point it's just min-maxing stuff. Ie, getting a +3 bow with an open prefix, replacing your cloth belt with a leather belt, replacing your gloves with better life versions, etc. The sorta-disadvantage of running Carcass is that it's harder to get that res balance going but if you need to, pick up Cloth and Chain (temporarily, until you can get properly rolled jewels) with your next two levels (GL getting 90 my friend) =)

Also, your life seems incredibly low for an 88 build. Mind posting your tree?

Hey, thanks for the reply

Here is my current build:


I am probably missing some life nodes somewhere, i started going for more jewel slots a bit early instead of the life% slots close to constitution, currently none of my jewels have life% though, they are 2x 10%res with 1 damage affix, poachers aim and one pure damage jewel(chaos and projectile damage)

Also getting to 90 is a bit tough without running blue/white maps only right now(i can mf just fine, i just die sometimes a bit too much to get levels), probably due to my health, thanks for any tips you can offer.
