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

No worries men just helping here.

Regarding signal fire: good u acquire it the +fire dmg implicit is just cherry on top and projectile weakness is good but elemental weakness is the curse i suggest as assasins mark is not as good before.

Curious about Vaal Pact node that is recommended in the leveling skill point images (I know the guide is being updated) yet in the 3.0 changes, NeverSink mentions no ES or Vaal Pact. So....don't spec for it in the skill tree?

Thanks in advance for the advice!

Hi, wasn't sure where to post this but considering it's related to the guide, might aswell.

So, after spending a lot, i managed to get this:



Used a lot of alteration orbs to get it so, obviously didn't try more and now i just don't really know what to do, my RNG has been so bad lately i'm scared of trying to upgrade it, i'm not even sure how i would upgrade it, (locking affix / just using an Aug and then regal etc.) not sure about its current value aswell, maybe i've spent more than i should have i don't know.

I don't really have a goal in the game right now, it's also my first time reaching lv78, maybe i'll reroll, maybe not now.

So what should i do, pray RNG and try to upgrade, maybe wait before upgrading to stack currency and get masters at a higher level to manipulate the RNG, or just try to sell it?

This build shouldn't be updated. It should be written again, step by step. Tbh it feels more outdated and 3.0.0 in thread name is just an illusion.

raider doesn't work in 3.0. Oneshots on every step. Merc lab is still impossible on 77lvl.

Why no aspect of the Eagle?

I did my merc lab at like 70 and I'm 82 now?

It's just that it isn't a brainless build until you get full geared. It requires placement skills and it asks to react quickly to some situations. Plus I wouldn't be surprised if half of the complaining players have poorly leveled their tree and don't know how to get proper stuff for a really cheap budget.

The only part I agree with is that the build need little tweaks here and there but the main stuff is explained and easy to understand. If you're not comfortable to start a league with builds having a steep learning curve switch to a league starter build. There are a lot on the forums, youtube & streams. Switch back to this build once you have enough currencies to get some good pieces.

I'm not here to brag or whatever but I've done Merc Lab at Lv 67 with crappy stuff and resists around 30-40%. I think I barely had 2k HP.

Do you have proper flasks ? (2 HP flasks, one quicksilver, one diamond, one Atziri Promise is pretty ok to start map with). Did you pick enough defensives nodes in the tree instead of going full offensive while leveling ? Have you done all your gems setup including IC+CWDT ; HoI/HoT+Curse ? Did you pick enough life leech in the tree (you can respec these later) ? Do you Blink when you need to blink and run when you need to run ? (This one is important, as blinking instead of running could kill you in some situations / AoE ). Have you purchased a Lioneye's Glare as soon as you leveled 66 ? (Death's Opus isn't that good if you are going full ele conversion and will be even less good later once you corrupt quiver & enchant helmet for + x arrows).

Lioneye's glare is amazing in 3.0. Actually I'm almost sure that a near perfect roll Lioneye's Glare (~350-360 pdps, 24% elem) will be on par with a 400+ pdps Harbinger. (I'm about to test this in the next few days). Even if it isn't, it certainly is on par with a 380pdps one. Plus that new Far Shot is sexy as hell with both LA & TS.

^^^well said men.

By the way your theory is right i have 401pdps total 480dps bow which is par with my lioneye 343pdps. Bth im using lioneyes and not the 480dps bow. Done poorjoy @lvl87 deaths on mob as its my first time to do and not aware of the layout and dmg of them but no death on boss as by the time i reach him im used to the map already. By the way what is far shot?

A reverse Point Blank, up to 30% more damage if you're far enough but without negative downside unlike Point Blank. Not really useful with Barrage but does a nice clearing job with LA/TS even with only 4 links.

Far shot (link to poe gamepedia)
