[3.0] NeverSink's ♣ INDEPTH Tornado&Archer Guide ♣ Beginner friendly ♣ Rapid clear ♣ All bosses

This is great guide, and that picture with basic tree and possibilities is brilliant idea. Best design ever so far, not to mention it's a fine working build. Thanks to Neversink, helluva job you did.
One big question - how do you open strongboxes, esp stuffed with some rare mobs or rogue exiles? It's a cause of my RIPs mostly.

Blink arrow. Neversinc is using it in new league.

Smoke mine works well too. But I just switch on brightbeak with leap slam/faster attack and I jump far away from the box after opening it.

Worth using Alpha's Howl or getting Charisma node in order to run all 3 Heralds + hatred?

let me clarify, I've subbed herald of ice for herald of thunder for curse on hit assassin's mark.

Have a question:

I rerolled build on standard where i have more gear to support it but faced weird tooltip on puncture.

While my Tornado with GMP is on 25k dps tooltip.

Pucture is only 15k ... Gem setup is same as guide suggest.

Why pucture is so low :( ? And is 25k gmp tornado without drillneck good ?

I'm a level 80 ranger and wondering what to upgrade next. should i save for a drillneck or upgrade what jewelery.
Amazing guide, level 88 and going strong!

I'm not sure what upgrade to go for next, a 6L or Drillneck (or is there something I missed besides gems). I can afford one or the other, probably not both.

Recolor your armor to get a red socket instead of blue and use added fire damage or weapon elemental damage. Both will give sensibly more dps than increase critical damage, and physical reflect will be less of a problem (if it's one).

5L your bow, at least. And you can multi craft it. It has currently two prefix (flaring and ipd/acc) and one suffix (crit multi). You can add multi mod, ipd and crit chance.

I wouldn't go for Drillneck. I'm not a huge fan of this quiver because it requires passive investment to get the most of it. It does very good job with TS however, less so with split arrow (which I use, and for which I prefer chain than pierce). In addition you'll lose a sensible amount of life, crit chance (because amu swap for mana leech), and you'll have to rework your resistances on your jewelry. Too much of a hassle imho.
You can try to look for a better rare quiver, with crit multi and mana leech.

Hi all,
I tried Atziri for the first time last night and failed. I found the Vaals and the trio extremely easy as they went down super fast and did not feel dangerous so I had full portals going into the Atziri fight. The normal phase of Atziri seemed pretty easy as she went down really fast and the add phase was also easy as she was not able to heal at all. However I struggled incredibly in the split phase with the 4 Atziri's. I was getting killed really fast like crazy (felt like constantly getting 1 shot but not sure if it was just 1 shot). I think it was the spear that was being thrown at me.

I'm really not sure how this build deals with that awful spear - its a ton of physical (takes me to low life) and then the bleed damage just instant kills me before I can even hit my removes bleeding flask. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to clear the split phase or has a really good video that actually explains it really well with this build (1.3)?

I play on Torment. Here's my gear and gem setup that I used, if there's something lacking there let me know. My basic stats are 4646 life, max resistances (75/76/75), 15.4k TS (before charges), and 28.6k puncture.

You probably hit the reflect clone during the split phase. She wears a shield. This is the part where you must chose your target carefully and use Puncture instead of TS.

The spear is usually no problem, thanks to Ondar's Guile.

btw, you may want to try WED instead of Increase Crit Damage on TS, it will gives more damage.
