[outdated] Caustic Arrow Solo Map MFer (20/300+)

found one of these

seems to make sense to use it

also, took 450 fusings to 5 link this, will probably just save 1500 for vorici 6 link

Serleth,

I'm currently at level 87 with about 4.3k hp. I think it's a combination of fps drops, latency, and a bit of carelessness.

Yeah, without being able to watch you play it's difficult to know for sure but it seems probable. I'm 90 with 4.6k and I rarely die.

This was mostly caused because I kept trying to bang my head again two unique bosses in the graveyard. Kept getting insta frozen and then killed by the other boss. :X

Hey how does rallying cry work? I started using it today and I can get up to 13k cloud damage with only 6 charges, +2 bow and lv19 PA.. pretty good imo.

But i'm not sure how it works yet, does it add damage for the amount of enemies in a specific radius? all enemies shown in the screen at the time I use it? Also what are some good supports for it? I have inc duration and was thinking of inc aoe if it works how i think it works..

thanks!

So I just got this cheap 5L bow. Is there any modifier worth crafting to this? It's definitely a temporary bow and I'll probably get a new one next week. I was looking at Leo's Damage over time, but I don't think I can even level him with this build and no one seems to be offering crafting services with Leo.

just got this for 2.5ex, such a great price :D


wow my rng is with me today.
got the 150 fusings to 5l with vorici since i can just cull with flame totem+rarity.
used 10 fusings got a 5L, rolled it away without noticing.
used 5 fusings got another 5L, this time i kept it lmao

The first PA I got from a quest reward finally hit 20; have 8 others leveling up right now, but this one has been with me from the start. Thank you based RNGesus.

E: @Serleth your DPS calculation on the first post might be a bit low. I'm on a 5l running level 2 Empower (+1 bow so level 3), 21 PA, Conc Effect, Inc AoE, and 20 Slower Projectiles, and I have 20.5k DPS on 7 frenzy charges. If I had a 6l with pierce, respeccing out of Piercing Shots and taking projectile damage nodes (I'm level 88, took jewel nodes instead) would boost it even further.

Just started up my PA char. Much harder now then it was. Mobs are much tougher. I also feel much easier to kill than before... did some 70 maps. Char retired for now.

On the other hand my Arc Scion is way better than before. Much better survivability.

Time to try some new MF builds.

NS

Just bricked 3 other PAs; if anyone wants a level 20 PA to play with while you level your own, shoot me a PM; I'll let these go for 10c apiece.

what about after make bow +3 and got dmg over time
how about roll blood magic on bow so we can use praktish 7Link and from our aura remove clarity and buff only def auras and aritc armor #and remove pasive mana points ?

The gem description covers how it works. And yes, it's based on the radius that your warcry covers, so you have it right with ID and AoE as solid supports.

@KingDeeCee: I sent you a PM.

@Ishamz, gratz =D

Yes, it is. The screenshot was taken before the base damage buff to PA in beta. I'll be updating the stats (along with touching up the rest of the guide) once I get my bow 6L'd. I'm farming like a madman to get it done, as you can see from the reduced amount of replies I've been posting here. :P

I'll have to remember to work some changes on my tree before I post updated stats though because I've gone more survivable (I want to push level 92-94), so I'm missing two Frenzy charge and something like 30% damage on the tree.

It's certainly an option if that's your playstyle preference, but in my opinion it's not worth dropping increased AoE or IIR for Blood Magic. Furthermore, AA will serve virtually no function, as you are never stationary with this build.

IMHO it's suboptimal.

If you're struggling defensively, you can invest in Iron Reflexes instead.
