Is there any relatively cheap good upgrades besides items in the multiple ex range? I can do any yellow tier map relatively fine but in red maps both clear and survivability is lacking (survivability is kind of a given with 4,8k hp and no loreweave but you get my point).


I would invest more but I've had shitty luck with drops and i'm kind of at a loss on how to gain enough currency to get the bigger upgrades atm as my way of gaining currency kinda went to shit given the new mapping system :^)


Hrimsorrow with life corruption seem to go for anything from 5c to 50c, its a decent QOL upgrade. Do you have any jewels slotted in the tree? I felt horrible until I had at least 2 and I'm gunning for a watcher's eye currently to add another 6%.
You could also add the life catalysts to your Mark of the elder for more %life and for the belt but long run you'd want to swap it out. How much HP are you sat at?

Also side note, Poet's Pens jumped to 1ex last night (thanks to a Reddit post of someone showing the new supports in them) so if you were like me and hoarding a couple to double corrupt now is a good time to sell.

For anyone interested (Enahkra especially) the theory is barrage support & barrage seems to cycle Poets faster.

sitting at 4822 hp at the moment without loreweave or any catalysts used, and i've socketed jewels in all slots i have. The jewels could be better as 2 have reists on em alongside hp and atleast 1 dmg mod.
Hello everyone. I started to compile this build, but ran into a survival problem on t15 maps. Practically any metamorph oneshot me. Could you tell me how you deal with this problem? Maybe I'm missing some point?
I plan to buy Voidfletcher, but maybe I should change something from the current gear first? I have ~ 15ex to spend.
I also need to 6linked loreweave, belt with increased effect of flasks and +1 to min frenzy charge at ring. Where should i begin?



I also have 4 jewels with attack speed and increased life.
Thanks for helping!

Does the wand build really have enough damage with KB in a 1 link effectively (KB-Pierce-GMP-LMP) to clear t16, or is this for speed farming low maps?

I'd like to do this if possible but to swap out WED seems like it won't work..

you can see my gear a few posts up, i have KB linked as KB-pierce-GMP-LMP and it clears alright up to atleast t12 maps (would need a few hits on thougher enemies but most white/blue mobs die to one hit). It does feel worse than the "good old" thunderfist KB-pierce-GMP-WED though, but that'd require a different gloves which i doubt would do well.
hi would u swapout diamond flask for cinderswallow urn?

Hi,

Thank you for the detailed guide, I'm enjoying it a lot.

I started the build a day ago, followed the guide and struggling a bit with DPS. If anyones free, could you please take a look at my POB and point out what I am missing? I have around 10ex to spend.

POB: https://pastebin.com/P9Z4zi4y



You need more jewels in your setup; ~4x regular jewels on tree. You also want a few more levels (easy just hoard niko missions and delve in T16 zone)

Get a +2 Power Siphon enchant, the Uber lab flat cold enchant for boots, a corrupted Hrimsorrow, apply catalysts to your jewelry, and then a corrupted Poet's.

If the DPS still feels bad just keep in mind they buffed boss life for everything this patch so it'll all feel worse.

I guess one thing you could get that isn't gated behind currency is the flat cold enchant on boots. This build lacks flat damage (hence why flat cold Watcher's is BIS), so getting more flat on boots will help a lot. You'll need to stack defensive layers (TOH + Basalt of iron skin) to stand a chance against Izaro but I think that'll be enough.

I guess the flat cold enchant on boots; I probably would've gone with more regular jewels in tree for the extra life, and yeah as you mentioned more levels. Once you reach the point where you can't level up normally, get a corrupted blood immunity jewel and drop the life flask for a DPS one. Then once you hoard enough niko missions to do rota etc. level up in low T16 delve zone (can prob reach ~96-97 without much issue).

Some of the metamorph bosses have a ton of life regen so I suggest having Frost Bomb in a socket to manually cast for those bosses; should make those fights much easier.

Sadly, any life-based ranger build is going to struggle with Metamorph bosses given how rippy GGG made them; it'll just require adjustments in playstyle to stay outside of melee range and kite, relying on Voidfletcher for most of the DPS.
