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

Thanks and it should be public now I think...I didn't know it was hidden ><;
hi, can anyone help me to c where my character should improve?
-Currenlty Uber Lab viable but will fail at times(one shot by izalo)
-Atziri tested,fail.... die in the hands of the queen
Can someone post a link to an updated skill tree for Build 1?

People said the one Neversink posted is not optimized.

Hello fellow rangers.

I was wondering which one would you prefer for Tornado shot build,

Herald of Thunder+Innervate+Assassin's Mark+Curse on Hit or

Herald of Ice+Ice bite+Assassins mark+Curse on hit.

Any feedback I would really appreciate it.

Thanks :D

So, just a quick look at your build. I wouldn't use Belly of the Beast. I'd go with a high-evasion chest. Life just isn't going to help you. As a ranger, we can't stack enough life to prevent getting one-shot, and can't stack enough armour to minimize the damage. Your best bet is to stack dodge/evasion and just make an effort not to get hit by the boss ever.

As for Atziri, some things to keep in mind for her.

She reflects curses (unless you're using blasphemy), so turn off any cursing mechanic you're using. Also, she has a reflect phase and tornado shot has an AOE mechanic. So I'm not sure how you avoid that mechanic with TS. We don't have a HUGE amount of leach, so. Maybe make sure you have the anti-reflect pantheon up. And like I said before, dodge dodge dodge.
First off I wanted to say awesome guide, has gotten me into POE, so thank you.

I wanted to let you know that in the buffs section you mention enduring cry and that you can link it to CWDT. I tried that and it doesn't work, so then I googled and apparently they made it a warcry so it doesn't work.

I figured might have just missed that line in your updates

Anyways cheers for the awesome guide.
Hello, i started following this guide a week ago after i came back since v1 so i'm out of touch a bit with everything. It helped me a lot in Acts and Tier 1~5 maps and gave me some guidance however since the guide is not up to date completely for version 3 i want to ask some questions because i feel like i have hit a wall and can't improve anymore. Profile link which is set to Public

https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Phoenix4th/characters

or http://poe-profile.info/profile/Phoenix4th if you like it more UI-wise

For starters i'm running 3 attacks, Tornado Shot/Frenzy/Blast Rain. I guess im using more than needed and i need to scale down to 2 to save Gems slots and introduce more options right ? Also i have seen some usage of Barrage and its making me think, is it better on single target than Blast Rain/Frenzy ? Should i replace those for Barrage ? Removing Frenzy means losing a direct way to stack Frenzy stacks however i can stack indirectly via Ice Bite support i suppose, and to be honest hitting Frenzy is not the easiest skill to do from a distance especially then you are used to Tornado Shotting all day. It has no width.

Also is there any headroom to save our asses from reflecting/dying in less than a second expect the usage of Immortal Call ? Because right now you may farm properly for 10mins in the row and just hit a random Rare mob with Elemental Reflect with your Tornado shot projectiles and just die on the spot. Is there something in the tree or gems or gear which can help this build out in this aspect.

When it comes to gear which part should i focus next ? I got a replacement already for chest already a Queen of the Forest Destiny Leather however i can't even 5-link it so i avoid equipping it otherwise it will kill my DPS.

I have a huge issue with STR/INT, i can't level up my Curse on Hit/Assassin's Mark etc which leads me to my next questions, do we tweak the tree a bit and more some INT here and there or do we get something like Astramentis to be done with Attributes ?

Thanks in advance.
the 6l skill supports seem to have changed as i read this thread.

Are now the 6l slots 3G 2B 1R?

need some confirmation before i invest the chaos for it.

Thanks in advance.

TS+GMP+?+EleFocus?+?+?
@morilomuka
Yes projectile weakness and ele focus shows the higher boots in dps.
Please download path of building its easy to use, this will show you exactly how much + and - you will get in all your planned passive, gear and gems. Im on mobile now and minimal resources to check your gear and passive.

@death hero
Bow - good
Chest - you changed your tabula for no life. many choices for this: belly, kaoms and my personal choice lightning coil
Quiver - signal fire
Belt - rare
Rest of gears - just get more hp If u have extra currency
Passive - good your following the guide (people have different take downs on this left or right up down depends on your playstyle doesnt matter as long you know when to take the right node at your own needs following the build in the end same results)

@nubfeeder
Need lab runner for this
Cwdt - reduce to lvl 1 as your immortal call also lvl 1 (this will allow you to cast immortal call Every
Chest - kaoms or lightning coil
Belt - rare for high hp
Flast - get all 20% and buy atziris promise for 1c
** get as much life as u can

@hugo
Passive is good if you get the gears fitted for the this

@alex82
Attack skill, curse on hit, projectile weakness, gmp or power charge on crit

@trublue
Ele focus for me. If POB says go i go. or wait for others to give advice though its already answered in some pages of this forum. Read backwards u can find it.

Strongly disagree on this for many reasons.
First of all, you can stack enough life. Sitting at 6.35k hp with a greedy 166% inc tree and devoto's (obv. with Kaoms but why not?). Even the guardians hit for far less for the most part. And how is evasion superiour as a defensive mechanic if a single stibnite flask lets you reach the evasionlvl if a fully maxed Qotf-build..(blund op). There are spells as well...

Belly gives you something like 400-500 life over a rare chest. For a lot of people here we're talking about 4.3 -> 4.75k life. How's that not massive? Its so expensive and annoying to reroll every map with crit or dmgmodes because of the possible oneshots (from everything). You don't have to agree with me if you think I'm talking nonsense - but rare eva chests are considered as trash for many leagues now on the market.

Fair enough, there are some good unique evachests out there but thats mainly due to their unique properties (clearspeed, labruns and some defense for Qotf, high dmg for Yriel's, ...) An eva armour also means Starkonja's + mandatory T1s everywhere for most players)
