PRO RAIDER HERE, Kappa.

Hi all I've been quiet in the thread for a while now been busy working and squeezing in play when I can, and wanted to give an update on my perspective, and take on the build. I have been receiving questions and what not from quite a few people seeing my post on the raider version and leveling the build.

I wanted to come here and give an update on my progress, as I have a few new things to add as well as I'm not sure if I'll play much tomorrow, and I'll be going ham on xbox with a few friends on Thursday for a while at least so I'll be MIA from the league (at least on PC) for an unknown time.

Personal shit aside I am here to share insight on my way to play this build, for broke ass hobos like me.

Why raider?

Fast, Cheap, MORE EVASION, Fast, DEEEEPS, Fast, FRENZY CHARGES YEEE, oh and uh it's FAST.

So I chose to level Ahfack's build as a raider knowing full well without god RNG I would never have the money for a Koam's, Dying Sun, 20ex helm enchant, ToH, GG Jewelry, and GG jewels.

After getting into T13s I noticed my DPS and survival being GOOD AS FUCK, regardless of missing all these components. What is the key to this? Evasion, and the fact that Prism is absolutely overtuned even with shit gear. One might say even Oh Pee.

As an example, take a look at my gear.


Total Cost: 6-7 Exalts

Total cost is an estimate because I didn't track each piece and balancing wise oak I had to buy a new belt every time, but w/e.

I'd like to now say I have killed three of four guardians deathless (can you guess the one? Not gonna lie didn't even try...). Unfortunately (More like I just fucking suck) I failed my shaper attempt today, but got him to a quarter on the final phase before my ineptitude got me a violent thrashing of balls to the face ending my run. I will fully admit right now with my gear you could "Easily" kill shaper, at least as easily with trash gear as you can. ALL of my deaths were misplays and completely avoidable, I could kill him if I had a bit more time before xbox launch but so be it.

The main thing I would like to say about this is that if I had a 6L or a much better set of rings; meaning with only about 3-5ex and a handful of RNG with fuses I could probably face tank the beam, and laugh my way to a self farmed dying sun to shit on him harder with.

Raider is completely capable of tackling the highest of endgame, and is a viable alternative to people who like me have limited time to play or just don't know how to make phat stacks of GG shit I see so many people posting in this thread.

For those interested here is my tree...



I end up with just under 5K HP, and before challenging the end-est of game I used my last few points and grabbed duelist leech. Needed that shit to face tank as my damage wasn't good enough for VP to be safe with only 5K HP, and it gives effectively double the amount of leech allowing me to get away with things my bad play shouldn't have allowed me to. My PoB has me at 218k unbuffed, and 437k with all shit up on guardians/shaper.

A lot of the damage and survival comes from wise oak being balanced as well, kinda nice, you need to do it on this version of it as well, trust me just do it.

A few final things, thanks Ahfack for the guide! you opened my eyes to an item I didn't even know existed and gave me a base outline of OP shit to compliment it which allowed me to have great fun in the league so far. For anyone interested how I setup or did with raider in more detail feel free to PM me here or in game if I'm on I check back pretty frequently and am happy to help when I'm not busy. I'm also thinking of rolling this build on xbox as a second build so if I do I'll let you guys know how it is.

I'd like to also state that despite my self deprecation in this post a lot of my success came from knowledge of mechanics and knowing what I can, shouldn't, and most definitely CANNOT do. The only reason I know I can kill shaper is because I've killed him on other characters in the past and have a bit of experience fighting him so be ready rip some sets if you go raider and you never fought him before. Play smart and pay attention to all his shit and you should be good if you have mechanical skill.

Good luck everyone and most important have fun! I know I did.





















PS, YES YOU HAVE TO BALANCE WISE OAK JUST FUCKING DO IT.

For ammy, is it better to prioritize crit chance or crit multiplier?

Thanks!

Dude, thanks so much for contributing. Very much appreciated! I'll add this to reviews section. Great job with twink-ish endgame gear. Yeah, if you were to have more time and been more careful you probably would've done it. 5k life is ballsy tho man. But QoTF lets you dodge some shit if you can play it through.

GL HF and keep us updated on the xbox version! Great work, again.

Multi because you can always craft crit chance (assuming your crit is at an acceptable level)

I have killed three of four guardians deathless

Hi mate, i was inspired by you and Ahfack. Please spectate my character! I have problem with dps. It seems too low. What should i upgrade first to improve dps?
Btw i can finally play a bow build since 2013 thanks to Bokko and Ahfack.

Balanced wise oak is one of the hugest dps upgrades you can get. Feelsgoodman

Hey ahfack

noob query

if you use Yriel chest do i still have to follow ur gem links and passive trees?

Also why ur not using vessel of vinktar?

"Math doesn't apply to raiders."

Does that mean balancing Wise Oak is different for raider? sorry if it's a dumb question but this is the first character I actually give a shit about.

Keep up the good work btw, and thanks for the amazing build.

ZiggyD doing Doomfletch build, Lioneye's Fall approaching 130c and going up.

Pathfinders have flask effectiveness nodes in ascendancy that raiders do not, so the math might be different
