I haven't had much time to play, so sorry, there's nothing to update. The final gear is identical (right now) to what it is in Standard, excepting the bow because that is on an old Ranger setup.

The difference there will be dropping AoE for Rapid Decay.

So i need Caustic Arrow - Conc Effect - Rapid Decay - Void Manipulation and IIR on my main spell?

Yeah if you want the IIR benefit immediately. You could also opt to increase your clear speed and throw in something like Slower Proj in the 5th link to make levelling (and thus getting gem levels) easier.

Sorry if this has been asked before- but I'm missing a frenzy charge somewhere I think... only have 6, where before ascendancy I had 7 (pretty sure anyway).

Did we lose one or am I just missing something?

Poacher Aim Uniq Jewel useless after Deadeye - pierce chance already 100%

Looks like you only had 6 before Ascendancy.

3 base
3 from tree

Meaning you're missing the frenzy charge from Merciless Kraityn, which would have been the case in 2.1 as well.

I mentioned this a few pages back.

If you're referring to the fact that the jewel is still in the gear section: Thanks for bringing that to my attention. It is now removed.

Hey Serleth,how fucked am I when i started this build as a ranger instead of Scion. Since I don't get 100% pierce from the tree. Can I just get the pierce gem and drop increased AoE, since I get AoE in the Deadeye Ascendancy? Will I get to around the same clear speed or should I reroll? Also if I want to put IIR in my 5link, what should I drop?
EDIT: Also why do you take so many mana passives on the tree, I never have mana problems

Thanks for making this guide.

I have been trying to play this build in new league.
Does anyone feel squishy when doing just merci dried lake? everything hits so hard.

Not really, I was just facerolling through merci lake with a 5L.

Mobility is the key. Use your Blink Arrow. You aren't supposed to stand still.

Ah right that's it. Thanks!
