Ranger - [3.11] YABB (Yet Another Bow Build) +5/+6 Ice Shot Chaingunner Delve 600+ Updated for 3.11 - Forum

I switched to a zombiemancer and it's been a breeze so far, just missing the crazy move speed and clear time of my ranger but at least I don't get one shot every few mins, thought of selling my zombiemancer to gear the ranger even better but I feel like it needs gear that is way too expensive in metamorph	Posted by Loaded44 on Dec 29, 2019, 12:35:19 PM Quote this Post

I also tried that with ice barrage but the 5l with scourge arrow seems better, but I'll try again. I bought other cheaper stuff first like the amulet, ring, helmet etc. basically everything else. I figured it would be better to have a bunch of the cheaper stuff first than spending everything on 1 weapon, and just have a worse version of the weapon.

It's inherent attack speed decrease is applied to every single projectile in the salvo instead to just the 1st one, turning it into a joke instead of a skill. Additionally Mirage doesn't change targets mid-salvo. And since it can take it more than 2 secs (even longer if you're usinge Ice Shot + Barrage Support for some reason) to finish shooting, the target can often be dead by the time it fires all the projectiles. If that hapens it will target the exact spot where the target stood, literally shooting the ground. If you wanna test that effect, try it with IS+BS as it's more obvious then. And @Kami990 - why are you using Ring of Blades and Combat Focus jewels? The latter I would understand if you were going, popular this league, lightning Wild Strike build. But Ring of Blades? Any run off the mill rare viridian with some alting will be better. And I'm not even using those. Any Searching Abyssal that doesn't roll wands will be better. Oh well I wasn't sure what to use for jewels because I couldn't afford watcher's eye or green nightmare at the time, so I just used random stuff I had lying around. I'll try to get what you said thanks Last edited by Kami990 on Dec 29, 2019, 12:56:28 PM	Posted by Kami990 on Dec 29, 2019, 12:55:17 PM Quote this Post
For some reason my single target damage is absolutely atrocious. Im only level 77 but I have an Opus 5l barrage setup a 6L chest, a Hyrris demise, decent abyssal jewels, most gems on level 18/19, but I cant even properly kill a normal yellow tier map boss with barrage. Sheet dps on barrage is like 9k in POB its like 70k. I dont understand how the difference can be that huge, I compared it with the budget version of another ice shot build as well and even their budget league build has like 10x more dps with almost worse gear. My Clearing seems fine, but my normal ice shot setup almost seems to do more ST damage then the barrage ST setup. Id love to know what might be the issue. https://pastebin.com/z1vuDQ2k	Posted by Chrisbirdie on Dec 29, 2019, 1:40:37 PM Quote this Post
Where is your builds Pastebin for POB?	Posted by Bucklax31 on Dec 29, 2019, 2:19:47 PM Quote this Post
That is the pastebin at the bottom of the post.	Posted by Chrisbirdie on Dec 29, 2019, 2:34:23 PM Quote this Post
no idea what exactly happened but my damage seems to have partly fixed itself. was at like 90k max sheet ice shot 2 days ago now it goes up to like 200k ingame. Weird	Posted by Chrisbirdie on Dec 29, 2019, 6:54:26 PM Quote this Post

Thanks If you're gonna use it for bosses only, targeting won't be that much of an issue, but the fact, that it will fire the skill 2ce while you do it 10 times or more makes it a waste of space. If someone reads this out of context - we're talking about Mirage Archer on barrage type skills :] As a side note, it's both sad and funny at the same time, seeing poor minion farmers trying the bow cause "the bow league", finding out it's a lot harder to figure out than a horde of minions that only require some raggs off the road to work and feel the need to cry about it on forums, more often then not blaming the build for their hardships. If you want someone to blame, poor, poor kiddos, blame ggg's balancing. Last edited by cimerea on Dec 29, 2019, 7:00:57 PM	Posted by cimerea on Dec 29, 2019, 6:58:18 PM Quote this Post

Meanwhile this build with like 5? Good luck with the boss. I can actually blow through the trash then get destroyed by the boss on t10-16. I rerolled in the first place cuz necro is so op it’s boring, felt like there was no point in playing if the second I hit endgame I’m already so op with no reason to buy gear. First made a cyclone slayer but it was too slow clearing so I made this. Last edited by Kami990 on Dec 29, 2019, 7:26:58 PM	Posted by Kami990 on Dec 29, 2019, 7:13:06 PM Quote this Post
i have all this gear + lioneye's fall and green nightmare and still can't kill bosses on red maps, still random 1hits on yellow maps, im thinking about rolling into something more tanky and endgame viable at this point. (i know my SA setup is trash now, before that i had it on 5L and it also couldn't do bosses) Last edited by Ravesence on Dec 30, 2019, 12:54:36 AM	Posted by Ravesence on Dec 30, 2019, 12:52:37 AM Quote this Post
