So patch notes just went live.
some notable changes that may affect this build.
"
Bows can now roll a high-level suffix which cause them to fire 2 additional arrows. The existing Splintering mod can now appear on lower-level bows and is more common.
"
Death's Harp now grants +50% to Critical Strike Multiplier (from +100%). You can use a Divine Orb to ruin it, and any existing Death's Opuses.
Death Opus may no longer be BiS, cannot be sure yet. It seems like a rare bow would be better.
"
Shaper Influenced helmets can now gain "Nearby Enemies take increased Elemental Damage".
in conjunction with delve fossil mod "-9 to cold resistance" would be the next upgrade?
Thinking about league start your build.
Death Opus is still the best option for early stages of the league right?
Do you have time to go over the Cluster Jewels notables? Any thoughts?

do you recommend this as a starter build after nerfs on fossil craft and bow? After patch notes ? And what about survivability on this build its hard to not die on end game content?
How about changes on fossils, its gonna rly hurt this build on early maps ?
Last league people had issues with single target damage at the early stages of the campaign, but clear can functiona well into red maps on a 4l. Deliruim seems to focus more on clearing contents and fast movespeed, so yes, this would be a nice started to do contents early on.
Fossil nerf does seem bad, making it harder to get -9 cold res, but thats about it.
Survivability is always an issue for evasion based character, even more with metamorph with huge crits, delirium should see less deaths.

Not sure if the crit nerf is to Harp only or opus as well, either way if the price is lower than last league, it will serve as a good bow untill rare upgrade. I have went through cluster jewels some post before, go check them out.

Yeah man, the way fating works is that it retains the unchanged stats of the previous item (that's how legacy Frostferno's end up being +6 instead of +4), if you use the prophecy on a 150% Crit Multi Harp in Standard now it retains the 150% but if you Divine orb it, it'll goto the 50%
I make odd builds and sometimes write guides.

Been playing since before Atziri so got maybe 1% of the games intricacies learnt. Only 4 million more hours playing to be classed as a rank amateur :D

What should we look for bows-wise while leveling as league starter? Will definetely league start with your build, loving it

Thanks! I totaly forgot about legacy opus. That clears things up.

Buy the unique bow Roth's Reach at level 18. you can look for death's harp as well, upgrade to opus might not be worth if the prophecy is expensive.
rare base you just want attack speed crit chance and ele damage. End game BiS will most likley be a rare shaped harbinger bow with +2 arrows.

how good is the single target dmg exactly for map/act bosses?
Is it enough or totally trash and pain in the ass?

Hmmm there is absolutely no way to reach these numbers with such a low investment... Did you even play your own build in metamorph???
Also, Opus is almost impossible to replace in terms of dps only a mirror tier bow outdps it....

Ah yea, sorry was early in the morning for me. 5 ex should get you 3-4m single target.
they nerfed opus and buffed rare bows. opus only has 50% multi now, and rare bow can roll +2 arrows. a multimodded rare with +2 and some t3-1 affix should out-perform opus.
