Need help figuring out what to upgrade next. Have about 8 ex for upgrades. What are the biggest priorities for dps/survivability?

- Helmet with Toxic Rain enchant
- Quiver with attack speed
- 2nd set of cluster jewels
- Other?

I still haven't been able to beat Sirus and occasionally get 1-shot.

Helmet with Life, -% chaos res on nearby enemy and some res is better than Devoto, if you can grab one with Toxic Rain arrow +1 you're set to go.
Clusters are also good to have and plan the build ahead, I'd grab some base and roll them with the spare Harvest you get (you can roll the Broadside/Tempered arrow with "Physical" plants and the other one with Chaos plants).

Thanks - I followed your advice last time & it was very helpful.

Another question - if my enchant is Toxic rain fires additional arrow, how do I run Aspect of the Spider, Malevolence, and Flesh & Stone at the same time?

Even with Enlighten lvl 4, it appears to be over 101.2% of mana reserved? 88% * (40%+50%+25%) = 101.2%

You should actually get (0.25 + 0.5) * 0.88 + 0.25 = 0.91 (91% reserved).

Make sure you don't have any support gems that increase the mana reservation of Aspect of the Spider. This means no "Second Wind" or "Increased Duration" on that item.

You can also get an amulet with Malevolence has reduced #% mana reservation, but it's not easy to roll with +1 to Dexterity gems (on average, it should take about 30ex or so in aug influence crafts), and +1 to gems definitely is the priority affix.

quill rain, because it gives a bunch of aps of it

Nice, testing it and do tons of damage, omfg!
One question, could i remove GMP and GLP? Because Quillrain spam so much Blast Rains, i want to put others gems, like Vaal Grace and Animated Guardian hehehe

Another thing, should i go to +1 Arrow Quill Rain? Or test the damage withe DoT + Dmg over time, aps 1.8~1.7 Ticket bow?

Tks sir!

I think +1 arrow corruption on a Quill Rain is not bad, especially for mapping! I ended up opting for the "Supported by level 10 Onslaught" (if you want to drop your silver flask) and 10% chance to gain a Frenzy charge in a double-corrupted bow.

Note that if you swap to a Dot + CDoT Thicket Bow with Attack Speed (even better, add +2 arrows), both your single-target and clear DPS will definitely increase, but playing it will feel less snappy. Since your character has a much slower attack speed, so it'll take you longer from clicking to walk before you start walking. I tried both and ended up sticking with a Quill Rain.

Hello,

I just got a +4 carcass. For corrupted quill rain, understood you got frenzy and onslaught. I got culling on my gloves so i can skip the culling gem. Do you think it is better to replace the culling strike with another gem? or get a different implicit +1 arrow and put in a onslaught gem with blast rain?

I'm abit mixed.

Yeah, I think probably +1 Arrow is your best corruption in that case.

Utility gems all work! I think Onslaught is the best option, but if not Onslaught, you can get Blind (though a lot of enemies will already get blinded by Flesh and Stone) or Critical Strike to proc Elusive slightly more. You can also get Lesser Multiple Projectiles for even more projectiles for slightly faster Wither stacking, but you honestly don't need them most of the time.

i'm not sure, but i think is not good because low Critical Strike chance if u have high cri u can use.

hey guys this is my first time playing POE this is my first build that I decided to try I am currently struggling in red maps and conquer fights currently level 88 and just following remis guide without any cluster jewels as of yet.




I have about 7ex and not sure what to do to boost damage and how to not run out of mana so fast against boss fights, any advice is appreciated, I do have only 5% chaos resistance with the rest of the resistances capped ( I am struggling with al-hezmin fight in particular)

Get empower lvl 3+ (why do people ever level their own empower not in weapon swap but in actual link beats me, lvl 3 corrupted should be cheap), you should probably stick to quill rain until you can get a proper +3 bow or craft one with fossils and save this one on a side (even though it's not the best base to multimod really), and you should get a proper amulet, that talisman is really bad doesn't even have life on it and anoint is useless. Craft a proper hunter amulet or buy one.

Also if you use asenath's chant put there skills that would help you (like despair, essence drain or soulrend) otherwise use a rare helmet with -9 chaos res aura.

Use a mana flask.

Shakari pantheon, watcher's eye with unaffected by poison or curing flask go a long way there, also having exposure therapy or student of decay on a medium cluster.

You capped your elemental resists but neglected all other aspects of the build.
Your itemization should work around these 3 points:
-elemental resists
-Life
-DPS and Chaos resist

Having elem resists and Life is not so expensive and should be prioritized until you have enough currencies to craft your final equipement.

You have too many pieces without enough life.
I would use these 7 Ex to buy an intermediate stuff allowing to farm easily Red maps.

For exemple here are some poe trade researches to find correct stuff:

Base Rings to craft Chaos damage ( Spam Deafening Essence of Envy until you get a good ring) :

6Link Quill Rain ( will be a lot more efficient than your curent bow):

I'm also not convinced by the Asenath's chant helmet.
A devoto devotion is better to start with a blast rain setup to cast wither on ennemies.


You should also change your flasks.
The flask setup in the guide is perfect and will solve your mana issues, there is no reason to not use it.
Here is mine, it allows to run cursed maps without being cursed and the immune poison on the mana flask will help you against al-hezmin



When you will have enough currencies, you can go for the 1 cluster setup, it is probably the change giving the most DPS.
Then craft your final equipement one by one with Harvest, TFT discord is your best friend to do it.

I converted my toxic rain herald of agony build into this last night and I am very glad that I did. The initial investment was a bit expensive due to the cluster jewels - I decided to dive straight into it as deep as I could go. I'm still missing some of the big ticket items like the watcher's eye.

I am very glad I made the switch, I knew that TR had it in him to deal actual damage and this build proves it. Yeah I'm really squishy, but I do know how to take a hit so long as I'm not trying to face tank something or running headlong into a mob pack.

I would say that map mods with severe penalties to elemental resistances, though, are incredibly dangerous and not to be taken lightly with this build.

I feel like I might need more life than the 4.4k I was able to muster before I can fight Siris with this build, we'll see I guess the next time I open his encounter back up - my last build made the siris fight a chore so I'm really looking forward to trying out this actual damage on him.

Thanks OP,
