[outdated] Caustic Arrow Solo Map MFer (20/300+)

So I have an Added Chaos Damage gem. Would it be a good idea to replace on of my bow gems and put the chaos damage gem in it's place?

I was thinking Empower since I only have a level 1 empower I am trying to level. What are your thoughts?

Unless I'm mistaken, and I very well may be, Added Chaos will not scale your cloud dps. I think it will only add a splash of chaos damage to the initial arrow but not impact the cloud degen.

If I'm wrong I hope someone will correct me.

You'r right. Serleth already answered that only the initial hit take adventage of "Added Chaos" gem

Keep Empower

Hi all,
This bow dropped while I was playing another toon and I am wondering if I can add the DoT mod from Leo on it?



Also, do you think it would be worth it to 5L it? I have enough jewelers to 6s it but I will need to save up a little bit to use bench to 5L it.

Thanks all for your opinions and thanks Serleth for this awesome build!!!

I'm sorry, shin, no DoT-mod available when the bow stays like this.


Also, I will make a rather extensive break now that 8/8 is done :) thx for the time Ser & others, see you in the next big update :)

Hi Serleth,

I did as you suggested and am sitting on 4.5k life atm, which is much better. I think in order to get more life I need to drop the Aurseize in favor of rare life+mf+cold+light res gloves.

Yeah. As much as it would be nice to have Aurseize, the changes to monster damage output, especially in higher level maps, are a big reason I don't recommend them for this build. Used to be that 4.5k life was enough even in 78 maps. Now you want closer to 5k, hence the rare gloves.





The added chaos / DoT questions have been answered appropriately. Thanks, folks.

Didn't see it but I will look again. Thank you for the build and the very informative replies!

Oh, so disappointing to hear. :( Oh well, it was lucky enough for a +3 bow to drop. Guess I cant have everything. :)

I hit 90 today. I don't know where I can go from here. This is probably about the end of the road for this guy. Any suggestions skill/gear wise would be appreciated.

Gear-wise you're fine.

Tree-wise it's just damage and life etc.
