[3.13]🏹 Poison Barrage-VF / Scourge Arrow / TR PF | Bottled Fortify | The Tankiest Ranger + High DPS

Heyo,

I feel like I am coming to a point where my dps and survivability isn't that great anymore. I see my health pool dip dangerously low sometimes in high maps and most tougher fights are slow. I am currently level 94 and A5 and my gear is already really nice in my opinion. Any tips how to improve further though?

Spoiler

Get awakened gems (deadly, unbound) on your 6 link SA--huge miss right there! Check your accuracy/hit chance. Tailwind boots and focus helm will increase your DPS by good amount. Aspect of the Spider will improve your offense. I would drop one of the two Nostalgia ring for a well-rolled rare ring with flat chaos, poison damage, life, etc.

Thank you, WolfieNa! I will check out my options.

> Check your accuracy/hit chance.

What value should I aim for? The wiki says there is no cap. I got 90%, which is probably a bit low!

Thanks, I didn't realize that!

> Aspect of the Spider will improve your offense.

I went with the Envy setup, so I don't really have mana left for Aspect of Spider, unfortunately.

When I got a chest with blind, it seemed like dropping flesh & stone was a good idea. Then I traded a despair ring for a despair enchant on gloves and the increased damage from fenumus' aspect of spider for increased chaos damage on another circle of nostalgia. I think it is more dps that way but I am most of the time not sure whether or not I am doing everything right in PoB..

Should be 97% plus. Hit chance capped at 100%.

You can drop Arctic Armor and adopt Aspect of the spider for higher DPS and see if it gives you better experience. Otherwise, you can keep the current setup.

That chest is OK to keep. One Nostalgia ring to get your chaos resist/damage is enough. The rare ring gives you more legroom. You already have despair on hit on your gloves, so you can craft other stuff on your ring.

In addition, you should utilize the empty jewel socket as much as you can. Grab a Watcher Eye with Malevolence (+22% DoT multi) if you haven't.

Hello,

I've reached a point where my DPS feels more than enough but although i die a lot less than before, i feel like i'm missing something in my tankiness to complete the hardest content in the game.
My first simulacrum went perfectly and i can run juiced 60% delirious T16 maps, but i got wrecked by Kosis on my only attempt at a 80% delirious one and getting hit by a Sirius beam is still a no no for me.

Any suggestions to improve my survivability would be greatly appreciated, thanks again for the really enjoyable build!

Have you tryed to craft fortify effect helmet? Focus fortify effect bench craft on body armour also nice option or try to get +1 endurance charge boots. Look in wiki about alternative versions of gems, some alternative quality stats can drastically boost up your damage or defenses.

I wanna try this build so bad it looks fun. Is 25ex enough for an easy Sirus A8?

Greetings! I have been enjoying this build over the last week or two and it feels really good so far!
I have some problems on where to upgrade or change out some stuff next.
I am currently trying to roll a fortify helmet with T1 life but alterations have not been on my side.
Iäm not a fan of the belt but I need the resists. Also have resists on all jewels more or less.
It would be super good to get the fortify while focused on the chest along with a better life roll but I am not going through the process of buying fossils again.
Any tips or hints would be greatly appreciated! I feel like I am missing something obvious

Hi! Nice gear overall but you dont have any additional arrows on bow or quiver and what hampers dps alot especially in long boss fights. You can see explanation about scourge multiple arrows mechanic in first WolfieNa post.

Thanks for the input! I threw this quiver together to try out the +1 arrow business.

to replace my current quiver


Basically swapping +1 arrow for dot (around 12 % multi considering tiers)
I think it is certainly better
