[3.2] That Doomfletch Life | 3.1 VIDEO GUIDE UP! Tree/PoB | All Content | Reviews

I just switched from a 6l qotf to kaom's and rerolled from raider to pathfinder and I feel squishy as fuck now. I went from pretty much never dying to at least 2 deaths per shaped spider forest. What'd I do to break this build...?
I'm getting a bit discouraged. I've spent almost a thousand chaos on this build so far and i'm still 1/10th of the dps in path of building.

my Average barrage damage is "27697" and total dps is "283623" in pob, yet even t12/t13 bosses still take me more than i would think to kill, so there's no hope of even guardians or shaper at this point.

I'm really hoping there's something i'm missing - please help me out.

I know my wise oak isn't balanced, but i doubt that's the missing piece. Can someone please take a look?
I'm getting really discouraged.




Thanks

Hello Exiles,

I followed most of the steps on this guide, I haven't finished lab yet but more or less I have the basic gear.

Trash is one-shooted, only problem are bosses. And I mean low level such as t13 High Gardens. It takes too long killing them. Note first time playing bow build so maybe is lack of skill. Am I missing something critical concerning gear for such low level bosses.

Currently have 500 chaos, what should upgrade in order to kill red map bosses easily?

OP's insane number involes Blasphemy with Projectile Weakness, mirrored legacy gear, and pretty much any GG stat you can get on his items. At best, with mimicking most of his setup (I do not use Orb of Storms for Power Charges) and using an Abyssus with +30% Proj. Weakness effect I reach 1.54m~ DPS with Barrage during all effects. You're missing a Diamond Flask, WED rolls, and I assume you have a real bossing amulet.

6L, quality gems, Wise Oak, and/or Diamond Flask, and Ele Damage rolls on your rings.
Finally managed to trade/farm like a madman and was able to buy some upgrades and balance my resists. Just killed Hydra at level 90 and it was an absolute breeze. Can't wait to do the other 3 and Shaper. Could facetank my way through most of the fight and the damage is absolutely absurd. He went down in 15 seconds.

I do agree though that for mapping, the Abyssus is not needed for damage. If you're skipping bosses, you'll be fine, but otherwise I just stick to my Starkonja's.

I've also never bothered to re-colour my Doomfletches, so I'm using chance to bleed instead of increased crit. Will be trying increased crit soon to see what I prefer.

Monster of a build and probably my favorite to play so far. I just love the speed of the Pathfinder and having a good mapping build that's capable of clearing all the content and just rip through bosses is awesome! Thanks Ahfack for making this. I'm having a blast.


My gear at the moment:

You are missing some phys on your gear. Remember, the Doomfletch prism scales off of phys, so the more you have, the better it is. I'd try to get some on your gloves, your cold damage ring and your belt. I bought a cheap rustic sash that upped my damage by quite a bit.

Also, you could roll weapon elemental on a belt and boots. The boots I have aren't amazing, but they where pretty cheap, and the elemental I could roll on them was a good damage upgrade. I just ran a couple of days of merc/uber labs for the enchants which are also a huge upgrade in damage and made a lot of currency in the process to buy upgrades with.

A diamond flask isn't needed for mapping, but it's a must have on bigger bosses. I'd roll one with bleed immunity.

-Accuracy on gear! Even 350 or so make a massive difference since you are rolling twice for crit.

- no attack speed on gloves

- no crit multi on ammu (may be expensive)

- rings are so so. Mine were 100c combined and not that crazy. But if you compare them with yours..

- not even a half-decent helm enchant

- lvl 19 0q gems..this is a loss of about of a link...

-diamond-flask? Wise-oak balance. We dont get THAT much pen elsewhere..so its huge. Also a huge pain to balance, I agree with you here.

TLDR You managed the "hard" part with 6l, kaoms and flasks. Now its time to cash in with some finetuning and you'll be fine.
Im trying to get the old oak flask set up and i must be doing something wrong... my gap is 60% like the first post mentions, but they still dont equal out

No Flasks:

Cold 7%
Fire 7%
Lightning 67%

After taste of hate, dying sun, and wise oak:
Cold 95%
Fire 95%
Lightning 103%

Anyone know what I did wrong?


EDIT: I DONT HAVE ASCENDENCY YET FOR FLASK EFFECTIVENESS, I THINK THAT IS ISSUE :D
