[outdated] Caustic Arrow Solo Map MFer (20/300+)
|
Thanks for the build. 360+ pages!
I am very new to this game (came from D3). I had pain level up with this new build but recently started to have some fun (level 75 now). MF is at 9/190 farm map T6/7 but haven't seen the major loot differences with my other Duelist/Champion level 88 farm map T10/12 yet. Hopefully later when I have more levels and gem level and bow upgrade :) Quick question on resistance. is it importance to cap them at 75%? And should it be ok the values inside the bracket to be less than 100%? I saw some guides and they suggested those values to be 130%+ given the possible debuffs. Resistances are hard to achieved since we are trying to get as much IIQ/IIR as possible
Spoiler
If any kind soul can help advising my next upgrades. That would be very much appreciated

" What, no chest?!?!? just kidding lol |

" Capped resistances can make a big difference... especially the closer to capped you already are... 70% vs 75% is 25% dmg vs 30% = 17% incoming dmg difference... And the whole 135% thing is because of the -60% resistances in Merciless... 75% in Merciless zone = 115% in Cruel and 135% in Normal zones... I think if you're worried about the Elemental Weakness map mod you can just bring a Bismuth flask with you |

Im constantly dying in t7-t8 maps with current gear:

3k life, almost all res full (73 lightning, that's it) arround 9k evasion with Grace, also running Clarity... Mobs melee take my 1/4 health. Why? |

"What jewels are you running? Character level? Chaos DPS tooltip? Off the cuff, you could use a better belt and helm. The belt provides life and dual resist, but if you start with a leather belt, you gain up to 40 life just from the implicit. The helm is kind of debatable as well - it's ok, but it doesn't have high evasion. For comparison, with Grace, I'm seeing 17k+ evasion. Also... it sounds like you are getting hit a bunch, which makes me wonder about play style. You have to keep moving in this build - no facetanking. There are a bunch of bosses at tier 7+ that can one shot you at 3k life. Current league IGN: Teldra_Anc_LAD
Feel free to message me in game if I'm on. |

" That's your problem. Both your gloves and amulet have no life and my guess is you're sitting around 80% life on the tree. Can't see your tree, so I don't know for sure, but you should be closer to 4-4.5k life if you want to survive mid-tier maps reliably. Jul 27, 2011 - Sept 30, 2018.

" Yeah you've sacrificed an incredible amount just to fully gear, including Carcass, in order to hit res cap and just stack IIR like crazy with as much damage as possible. You're going to have a very difficult time levelling like that. Rework your gear so you can get life on your gloves and amulet (dropping Carcass Jack for a tri-res rare chest if you have to in order to keep res balance, the AoE's just QoL, not a requirement). Then respec 2 of your frenzy charges and the 10% proj damage node in ranger, and invest all five of those points into the rest of the Scion life branch. That should put you closer to 4k life, and allow you to level MUCH easier. I'm guessing with 93 points you're roughly around level 68-70? You can drop down to 68 maps to be honest and level just fine until ~level 75, then +1 map tier (roughly) every level from there on. Use your next level to get the last Shadow life node, then either Frenzy charges again or Growth & Decay. Jul 27, 2011 - Sept 30, 2018.

@Serleth... nice to get a mid-range HP benchmark... I was at 3.7-4k for the longest time... recently bought jewels with 22% dmg mods and +5-7% life mod for 20-40c, and reached level 90 and now my life sits at 4.6k... (Your 4.8k front page top-top-top-end always seemed unattainable)
I think my lvl 20 Grace puts me at 12-13k Evasion... 1-2 days from finishing master levels to mastercraft my Bow and upgrade helm/gloves/amulet for more HP/Eva and IIR while maintaining resists... Bought lvl 21/0 CA until I can Vaal 21/20... tooltip jumped another 2-2.5k to 18.5k DPS buffed... I finally got around to farming some T9 maps the other day after a small break... Gorge doesn't seem nearly as awesome as community thinks it is with this build specifically... him flickering all the time seems pretty rippy, and makes it harder to keep him in your clouds... much preferring Arid Lake T9... and great nostalgia from when I last played PoE heavily in 1.2/Rampage and it was still T1... |
