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

Hi NeverSink. I'd like to know more about the WindRipper (ele crit) build u have. Can't seem to find a link to the build yet. Could you drop me a link to it? I have a legacy WR 100% crit chance and an Acuity along with a good rare quiver so I'm itching to try it out. " IMPORTANT: This part of the guide is a separate build, it's NOT a part of the original build. Just to get a few things out of the way: 1) This build expands upon the original build, it's designed for experienced players and requires some currency to pull off properly. 2) Do NOT attempt to play this setup without a windripper 3) Do NOT attempt to start a new character/league with the windripper setup 4) I highly suggest to be familiar with the "normal" build, before trying out the windripper setup. 5) This build is not recommended for beginners Pro's and con's: +Insane clearspeed (equal or higher compared to setups of the original build, likely lower than mirror-gear phys bows) +Consistent elemental effects +Great for farming +High mobility +Fun to play +CoC variation possible +Uses a great weapon with massive attack speed/crit chance +Less affected by upcoming Enduring Cry/CWDT nerf +Reflect reduces reflected damage by 75% +Gains a lot more bonus damage from drillneck -Not exactly cheap -Reflect is a tricky beast -You can po -Leech is a problem -Immortal call won't help VS reflect -Not good for atziri Requirements: +A Level 85 or higher ranger +Windripper +At least 5 links, better 6.

Hi, Can any one help me? I have been leveling a ranger with this build. But my dps sucks I am not sure at what stage i can ditch the elron rings to over come mana issues. But the differene in crit rate with change in ammulet and rings is from 23.4% to 25% crit chance global. I have a base TS dps of 5K .... which i feel is very low. here is my gear at level 70. This caps my resistances Spoiler Ideally i want to run a life leech on the sockets of my 6L armor and still have a reasonable dps. I am following the skill tree listed in the guild here is where i am at now. Spoiler https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAwIAAF4FLQW1CC4IiQqbDY0ZjiF2I_YknST9MHwyATKUOdRDMUd-Sn1M_02STipRR1O7W69daGHrYlpirGVNZ6BsjG_ydO11y3rvfXV_An8rhNmGzod2ivCNfY1-jb-QCpUFmvGbJpuNnaqgn6OKpuCwq7IZtMW9Nr6nv9XBM8FJwuzEgsjcyqnNmM96037UI9nG2sHjn-cK51To1ulG6mLtg-4O73r8xf4d_rr_3g== how can i improve? I do have this bow with me not sure if i should shift to this instead of my lion eyes.. This shows a lower tool tip dps. But the tooltip dps is what affects life leech .

I'm afraid that's not going to happen soon. @Zinja: take that added chaos damage out, also Faster attacks may be too much, LG is fast enough on its own. If you don't wanna recolor sockets try TS-gmp-PtL-WED-L.Leech-Slower proj./Faster proj(F.P. in case you have mana issues). I guess your crit chance isn't rly high with LG so IncCD on its own isn't good idea. I'd try inc. strikes and inc.damage if changing colors is possible. So TS-Gmp-Inc.C.S.-Inc.C.Dmg-Sl./F. proj (again, depends on mana issues) and Life Leech. Your Harbringer won't work nice without bit of accuracy. Burn all the orbs!

hi, great build. i have invested 3 points into spirit void but i noticed i could get more leech from essence sap. i have 3 refund points available should i restat or is there something I'm missing that makes spirit void better than essence sap ?

" Panini_aux_olives wrote: Faster proj provides only little increased damage. ICS is much more important, giving you more reliable crits. As for faster attack, my feeling is I don't need much on a bow build, I prefer to hit hard and run. Also it increases mana cost quite sensibly if you want to sustain your shots. I use FA as my 6th link with SA/TS on my archer, and don't even use it with lightning arrow. On the other hand I value FA highly on my non crit builds ; it's on my 4L heavy strike and 5L sweep on my Darksrhine marauder. I agree with that. It's only a must for Frenzy/Whatever single target Skill for bosses. I'd go for SA/Chain/PPAD/PTS/WED/Inc. Crits if you manage to get a 6l For frenzy (4l or 5l should be enough) i would go Frenzy/FA/PPAD/PTS/Wed or something similar	Posted by KalayoGaming#2924 on Dec 4, 2015, 5:47:42 AM Quote this Post

That's the point excatly, it's 50/50 utility/single target :). I was afraid it require good and pricy gear but it appeared less stubborn than I thought and works on potatoe too. For AoE (and often single too) is SA: I had tons of luck and dropped 6l so I could add faster proj as well. I tried to make single hit's damage bigger without paying attention to toolpit in general (that's how there's no Faster attacks). It works well with physical setup I think. I have my latest crash test at academy with quite awfull mods, plus I went in too full of myself, and then overcatious a bit, so it became fun in general really fast(also HD this time %)): Teh_shortie I think this map and boss is good to show strong sides of this particular SA.
