Accuracy isn't really needed because we're going with a crit build.

My accuracy tooltip is 85%, but because how many times I hit per second (6.49) its not as important.


Hope this helped

what? Accuracy is important on an attack build. Even if we weren't crit, having my projectiles miss a few stragglers mean I have to waste time moving to get in range of the mobs.

Can you explain why accuracy isn't important in a more detailed way? To my understanding, the critical chance formula scales based on accuracy. Once for on hit and once again when rolling for critical chance.

You don't have 2 threshold jewels.

You only have 2 ascendancies achieved.

You took bow nodes.

You have questionable passive nodes choices. You skipped the claw wheel in favor of Will of Blades. You also skipped on the extra jewel socket by Heartseeker, Golem's Blood.

Your flasks are redundant.

You basically ignored the whole guide and did whatever you wanted lol.


For those asking about accuracy you have 91% with Claws from tree.

You Take a lot of things that should not be taken in the passive tree

What pantheons do you use?

Pantheons are situational none are super important for this build.

Have you given any thought on using the new amulet Yoke of Suffering?
With 3 ailments it would give you a 15% more multiplier already (you get chill naturally, poison from poisonous fangs which is 2pts or maybe some other way and yoke gives you shock)

If you could get even more ailments easily it could be a pretty insane damage boost

How are you managing T13s with 4.1k? I have 5.2k and some bosses like the Doedre sewers boss still 1 shot me badly.... will a 6 link change a lot? That's my next item but fusings are uncooperative.

Hey guys, so we are a bit further into the league now but i still have some issue with survivability (i can run up to t9-t10 so far but depending on the mod it can become troublesome, even though i don't even break a sweat during t7).

I'm playing a scion build but it is similar to this guide so if i could get any tips... :)

Currently planning to swap some items :
- all rez with the 8% res node close to shadow jewel in the tree + 2 rings (with +30 life on rings minimum)
- replacing my boots with atziri's steps for added evasion and dodge, i think it will help a bit ?
- swapping belt for a stygian belt with added life + jewel with life on it

I would like to swap my torso for a 6-link belly but those are really expensive so i won't be able to swap it for a while, any recommandation on a cheaper option?
i should be able to get almost 5000hp without the belly depending on the life rolls i got with the rings according to path of building, will that be enough to sponge the hits ?

Also i don't know what to do anymore to increase my survivability except playing better (placement seems to be the key with this build) and maybe switch some nodes?

I run fortify on whirling blades, i intend to put my culling strike on it (culling strike is on my golem but it proved to not be reliable enough...), i think getting fortify lvl 21 will go a long way?
