[3.13] LIGHTNING ARROW/BARRAGE Deadeye Build / Zap your way forward! UBER ELDER DONE!
" What's bad about double curse for this build? |
|
" It's not bad. It's just rather a bad idea to get it purely from rings. Assassin's Mark on a ring is great, but since Soul Raker already caps you on leech I see very little benefit of running Warlord's Mark, therefore your 2nd curse on clear should be Poacher's Mark, while on bosses it should be Projectile Weakness. Neither is available on rings, and it's much easier to just swap out a gem rather than swap your rings around (since they may have some resistances on them, etc). I've already written about it. " Moving forward I'm actually looking into getting Awakened CoH for tripple cursing. Want info on builds or you need something?

" Are you overlooking something? Poacher's mark is available on ring, you could run assassin/poacher if you wanted. But I was thinking of assassin/elemental weakness. Assassin's mark is obviously a must, but adding in ele weakness (via 2 curse ring) would significantly up the DPS. I don't see any reason not to, provided you can stay resist capped.

" I never really searched for Poacher's on a ring, I just thought it's not a thing lol. I'll stand corrected, but it still changes nothing. You're certainly not gonna run Poacher's on bosses. My whole point is being able to rotate best possible curses depending on the situation, and Poacher's for clear / Proj Weakness for bosses is the best combination you can get.
Projectile vs Elemental Weakness
- This assumes you're already forcing bosses into negative resistances before Elemental Weakness.
Spoiler
If you're not then Elemental Weakness pulls ahead. Basically 8% Ele Pen on your bow makes Projectile Weakness pull ahead by 0.1%, scaling further the more penetration you obtain. This also assumes a lvl 20 Elemental Weakness, which is not obtainable on rings tho. Ele Weakness, as you can see, does not lag much behind, therefore Assassin's Mark / Ele Weakness combo is great, and if you can go for it sure do. Want info on builds or you need something?

Vet, your hard work for us highly appreciated. It's awesome that you're willing to go through and help us with this build! I'm slowly going through your post to me and changing things up. Alot of my issues are that I don't pay enough attention to fully understand things (eg: inspiration and steelskin/IC). So you guys help alot in pointing these things out.

" Okay, there is my response to what you said. I'm working on improvements now! Thank you again, kind sir. More questions from me. When and how could/should I transition into a 2nd curse? Assmark on ring, ele or proj weakness on hearld curse on hit? Going to normal boots, I'll get 2 more sockets. But going from wrath + precision to: wrath + lvl1 precision + herald + COH + curse is 1 too many gems. I still want to keep blood rage, golem, dash, and phase run (or withering step. That's another thing I need to contemplate) on my helm, and the 4 red gems on my gloves. Edit: I reread your post about annointments and curses. I'm gonna have difficulty deciding on gems for all that, if/when I go that route. I can easily remove bloodrage and use poachers mark with HOI, but then if I switch over to the boss, I won't be able to use bloodrage to compensate for the lack of charges from poachers mark. Is it a far cry to just have a second boot in my inventory, with different colored sockets for bosses? So something like: Clear
Spoiler
Helm: frostblink; golem; phaserun/withering step; lvl 1 precision Boot: curse on hit; poacher's mark; herald of ice; wrath Boss
Spoiler
Helm: frostblink; golem; phaserun/withering step; lvl 1 precision (maybe bloodrage instead of precision here?) Boot: CWDT; ele/proj weakness; wrath; herald of ice Is there a more efficient way to do this? Last edited by philthechil on Feb 1, 2020, 3:58:15 AM

" First off, don't put your posts into both quotes and spoilers. Just use the spoiler tag. Second off, when sharing an item don't do it via screenshots. Just copy/paste it in text form so we don't have to manually recreate it in PoB. Mouseover your item ingame, press CTRL+C and paste it into your post. Like this:
Spoiler
Rarity: Rare
Ghoul Horn Highborn Bow -------- Bow Quality: +28% (augmented) Physical Damage: 22-84 (augmented) Elemental Damage: 23-36 (augmented), 12-155 (augmented) Critical Strike Chance: 6.45% (augmented) Attacks per Second: 1.59 (augmented) -------- Requirements: Level: 76 Str: 70 Dex: 161 Int: 120 -------- Sockets: W-W-W-R-G-G -------- Item Level: 84 -------- Adds 23 to 36 Fire Damage (implicit) -------- Adds 12 to 155 Lightning Damage 10% increased Attack Speed 29% increased Critical Strike Chance +29% to Global Critical Strike Multiplier 10% chance to gain a Power Charge on Critical Strike Adds 3 to 5 Cold Damage to Attacks with this Weapon per 10 Dexterity 20% chance to deal Double Damage 50% increased Critical Strike Chance if you have Killed Recently Attacks with this Weapon Penetrate 16% Elemental Resistances (crafted) -------- Corrupted -------- Shaper Item -------- Has Slivertongue Skin. You can reclaim this by shift-clicking this item. If it's an item from a trade site use the copy option. Poe.trade doesn't have one by default but you can get a browser extension for it. Firefox / Chrome. As for the bow I would've went with the 2nd one, since it's a DPS upgrade even without PC's generated. With it generating PC's it sits at around 8% increase. I see you already got the first one, and 6-linked it so I'll pass on that question. It's good that you've done both anyways. Always account for the extra 6-linking cost if the bow you're buying isn't a 6-link already. " Use Decoy Totem extensively. You don't have to kite much. Once again watch the same video as it also serves as a perfect example, since it' literally against 4 bosses at the same time, yet I get hit once. " Life Flask of Dousing, Quartz Flask of Heat, Diamond Flask of Warding is my setup. Dousing gets rid of ignites that prevent life/ES regen in-between packs. Go with whatever you want, really. " That's why I tried to get it on video. Was really weird you consider it <99% uptime. Also yes, that's the general gist of why Hypothermia isn't your endgame setup. AAL also helps immensely with shocking. " Fertile Mind is such a suggababe. In theory it's just something you'd use before getting to maps, but getting one with CB immunity and being a Deadeye with the Rupture gimmick opens makes you basically bleed immune. Standard bleeds will still apply on you, but will basically be a form of gimped ignites. " No unique boots are worth the slot. Rare boots are just so much better. " Blood Rage doesn't give you FC's on bosses. My fav movement spells are Blink Arrow & Withering Step, since they don't share a cooldown, and you have Blink Arrow CD reduction from ascendancy. Withering Step is also great for running from pack to pack, and repositioning in general, with the juicy bonus dodge until you start shooting. I don't consider Golems worth it. They die to anything and everything in a T15+. Even in a CWDT setup they're more dead than alive. Transition to double curse after you've obtained the Aul's, and both CoH & Aspect on ring(s). I don't use Precision at all for clear since I'm hit capped without it. I swap in a +1 Barrage Starkonja and a Stygian belt for bosses, while rotating some gems. From: Helm: Withering Step - Blink Arrow - Wrath - Abys Socket; Gloves: Vaal Grace - CWDT - IC - Decoy Totem; Boots: HoI - HoT - CoH - Poacher's Mark; Belt: Headhunter. To: Helm: Blink Arrow - Elemental Army (works with Blink Arrow since it's a minion) - Withering Step - Decoy Totem; Gloves: Proj Weakness - CWDT - IC - Inc. Duration; Boots: Wrath - HoI - HoT - Lvl1 Precision; Belt: Abys Socket. Want info on builds or you need something?

Thank you for the tip about copy pasting into pob. That helps alot; I didn't know how to do that.
About my bow; I bought the first one for 3ex, and it was already 6linked. The second bow was 4ex and was (obviously) not 6linked. So I didn't spend any fusings yet. The 2nd bow is a more expensive option, but it is better overall. With that said, I'm still curious about pierce dmg, value of 6linking it, and value of the exalt pen master craft. I switched to a ring with assmark on it, as well as a mark of the elder. I actually found one that grants lvl 21 wrath. So, that solves a socket problem for now. :) I will be responding to the rest when I get back home tonight. Just wanted to get these questions out there. |

hello all, first of all, awesome guide! it was a tad expensive gathering up some of the rarer items but im currently lvl 89 and doing quite decently clearing t16+ maps. however, for the life of me i cannot fathom how the PoB for this guide has over 1.2million DPS for LA and im barely scratching 200K. Could any kind soul could take a look at my build and let me know what to improve? a few things come to mind with regards to HP, replacing one or two weaker gems in my passive tree but im stumped. i replaced hypothermia with AALS for higher damage on initial shot, havent gotten corrupted gems for most of the skills, is that the reason as well?

" Don't recraft Double Damage for Penetration. It's not that much of a difference. If you've got both bows I'd at least 5-link the PCoC one and work on setting up am actual weapon swap for single target. Siege Ballista - WED - Faster Attacks / Slower Proj - Culling Strike - Added Lightning. Pop 2 of those alongside your Barrage on bosses. Notice I said 2, rather than 3, not to despawn your Decoy Totem in the process. That would require you to run Voidfletcher in that swap, while getting another rare quiver for clear, or sticking with Hyrri's. As for the pierce mod I really have no idea. It's only 20% increased so it's not relevant anyways. Lvl 21 Wrath is so-so, since it also raises the Int requirement. Just focus on getting the Aul's & Spider / Cat next. " Ignore that PoB entirely. Read this post. Also The Taming doesn't work with Ele Focus. Why you got 2 equipped? Want info on builds or you need something?
