I made this build but I need help. Can you check my gears from my profile and tell me what i need apart from flasks also. i would like to change my body armour to another one with +5k armour ? no evisation of course


Change your profile settings to public, we can't see your character at the moment.
It is supposed to be like this? No fire/lightning damage on 'barrage' spell?



And yes, i have DF prism, not a standard DF.

doomfletch tooltip is bugged.

The colddmg is from hatred or herald of ice or whatever aura you're running.

The damage you gain from "phys gained as x element" is not shown in the tooltip. Therefore it's completely useless (even for comparisons).

Thanks for explanation.

Btw, I'm 77, I feel myself okay on t6 maps (just did my first t6).
I have tabula, and basic items, that's give me 3.600 hp and 70~ resists.

What should I go for next?
I mean, lioneye's fall veridian jewel, or just a basic jewels for resist, %hp and damage?
Or proper armor? Or rings? Or maybe +1 arrow quiver?
On which items I should start collecting my currency, to be fine on forthcoming uberlab?

I also have deadeye and not pathfinder right now, because it gives me more damage. (calculated with PoB)

Heya its my first time playing a pathfinder and giving it a go mostly because I already have most of the flasks however after playing it a while I'm just concerned about relying so heavily on the flasks for defense since my duration seems to wear off really quickly now that I'm trying to use them in normal play

Both your elemental and physical defense is pretty sketchy when they are not up and I'm just doubtful that I'll be able to have constant up time on them all the time. With duration they last 7 seconds with 2 uses so thats 14 seconds. But that means I can never go 14 seconds while picking up some drops or annoying map layout that requires backtracking through a blank area of the map or something that would then have a mob jump from offscreen and oneshot me.

Kinda wondering if going raider without abyses and just using the flasks on bosses would be safer as even the short videos with GG gear seems to have a few seconds here and there with no flask charges and flasks not active
So i did Minotaur twice, one with hard mods (with Abyssus i was dying even to his Sweep lol) and second one without dmg mods and with little extra life:

Been trying out this build for this league, and it's been going pretty well, got a ToH and a semi balanced wise oak (2 out of 3 at the moment but just waiting for tora level 7 to remove cold resis from belt)

the fun part will be when I buy a dying sun having to rebalance it and replace my rings and amulets, other than that it's a pretty good build, been doing solid tier 10/11 maps because don't feel too comfortable with my gear to run anything higher.

10/10 build so far can't wait to actually upgrade to actual items.

Well - I won't lie to you - the build is sort of expensive...

Disclaimer: - the following is my opinion - other players/TS may see it differently.

Starting as a deadeye is completely ok. You can respec to pathfinder later. Once you got the currency, 40 regrets aren't that much. Even in the very endgame, deadeye has - with the right gem setup - the higher dps. However Ahfack, as many other players chose Pathfinder because of the clearly superiour utility (compared to a deadeye going for the single-target setup). Movementspeed, Ailment-immunity and flask boni tend to outmatch the 5-10% higher dmg from deadeye.
However - since you're leveling and have a limited buget, you can't feel the full pathfinder power. Therefore - especially with budget limitations, going for deadeye can be the right choice. You might do/farm uberlab earlier and so on and so forth. The +1 arrow from the ascendacy will be quite helpful because of the insane enchantmentprices (8 ex for +1 barrage Rat's Nest, WTF?)

The item progression...

I don't know all the market prices, but I'd swap the tabula for either 5l Yriel's or a "regular" evasion chest with 90+ life. (5l yriels might give you higher dmg than a 6l but I don't know the prizes).

-Lioneye's Fall is around 10-15% more dmg, if accounted for the two-three extra points. Holy F..the prizes of that thing. And I thought I overpayed with 60c.

- the Quiverprices are going through the roof. You may decide so corner the speculation market and buy something not popular with high dmg. Or just keep your corrupted Drillneck for now.

Other than that, I would focus on your jewellery. Replace everything as soon as you can. Get either two diamonds with T1-T2 flat phys or (even better) steel rings. Flat phys is the most important stat for this build and you can't miss out too much on it. Cover the resistances in your gloves (the slitherpinch are very meh, get a solid pair with life+attack speed, res/accuracy/flat phys).

If you feel like
for mapping,

go for it by all means! If your dmg is too low however - and if you are to face major bosses like Izaro, get a proper ammu instead. Something like this

is a good league ammu. People in this thread posted even better necks, but don't expect even the one I posted for cheap. Focus on 1) life 2) flat phys (T1-T3) 3) crit multi. If you get more, great!

- for helmet I would do something like Starkonja/Rat's -> some helm with barrage enchant. Don't be too picky there however. As Ahfack posted many times, don't equip your Abyssus before you got Kaom's + ToH or a similarly tanky combination.

Other than that, a lot of people have posted helpful reviews for leveling/gearing this build. Feel free to look up the summary in the first page and to browse through the thread in general.

P.S. Have fun playing the build - the feelsgood factor can't be stated often enough ;)

EDIT: you need 40 regrets for full ascendacy respec not 20 as I wrote earlier.

Honestly, I only died once to this while mapping (lvl 93 now). I was careless in an eleweakness map which needed me to have WiseOak AND Dying Sun up to be capped - and some exiles jumped at me^^. Other than that, never had any issues, even while my game was frozen in multiple harby-packs.

You got a point however, some situations can be sketchy. If you can't 100%->0% phoenix (or 100->30% -> TpOut) in your flask uptime, you may want to equip something like purity of fire for this fight.

With the final setup 100%->0% should be very doable though.

Thanks much for such a good answer! I really enjoy playing this build right now.
Best wishes to you.
