[3.16] Caustic Arrow/Death's Oath Occultist [Life based Chaos Autobomber]

Is Thicket Bow best base? Or do we not care that much about attack speed and Maraketh is better?
Loving the build so far. Took my time to farm the necesarry gear(auras and chest) in Heist and currently I am very happy with the clearspeed on high yellows early reds.

However I am starting to experience some survival issues on boss fights with CA. Previously used a 4l blight for extra boss dmg, but after swapping to CA the damage is a lot, lot less and the fights are way harder due to the 10% loss from the mastery. Dmg asside, as I Contribute it to the 5l CA, just lvl 14 yet and no clusters, however how do we deal with the 10% health loss? Because currently the fights are a nightmare if I decide to use it, thus I opt to just run circles and left the DO do its job slowly but surely. Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

Also on the side note, as an armour flask, wouldn't it be better if we cram in a Rumi's instead of simple granite?

Attack speed is not that critical, but higher feels better. 1.4 from Maraketh is fine. (just make sure you have enough dex for it, since we lost some on the new tree)

CA is very level dependent. So if its only lvl 14, no wonder its damage is low.

Drop the +1/10% loss mastery for now. It's not a good idea until you can kill a boss in just a few shots.

~12% block is useless. But a flask with Bleed removal or additional 40+% armour can save your life.

My biggest issue is reaching the dex requirement for maraketh so im just gonna go with thicket I think. Maraketh is definitely something you can look into once you have a head hunter tho coz of the nice boost it gives.


OP !! Quick question, why have we dropped the brush with death/flow of life combos?

Do you mind explaining how to craft that bow in more detail? As in, which bench crafts to use and stuff. And would it work in a 6-link?

For budget +2 bow just spam alt and aug, it cost with itemlevel 64 5-link base around 5c
For middle budget +3 bow just use this:

its cost around 35c
Feels like we got lucky with the scourge mechanics, just running through them all and letting them close the distance for you works amazingly while most other builds are complaining about how hard it is for them to work in the scourge. Ended up this is probably one of the best league starters for sure.

Great vid of how to do it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y9_Aw28qoW0
Just a little quol tip: If u want to have better clear speed and more explode then use 2x obliteration in your off hand and if u have to kill boss just simply press x to switch to ur boss setup. I can do even red maps with this and the explode of the scourge monsters is awesome
