Hi, im very new to path of exile just started a week or two ago and i've been struggling with doing my 4 socketed atlas boss for example baran and veritania.
I linked my gear just to see where i could improve. Thank you for creating this fun build <3.
I just hope im playing it right haha.

Gear wise i think you should have enough to do Baran and Veritania. if you'd like I think you can swap out chest for Farrul's Fur. The ability to get max power/frenzy uptime is very powerful for phased bosses or bosses where you don't get much uptime on frenzy charges.

The worst scenario IMO would be if you don't have enough DPS uptime on the boss and you're stuck with sub 40 movement speed + inherent low life + no recovery mechanic. If you don't have Farrul's fur, you need to squeeze in some hits to keep your frenzy charges going so you can dodge properly.


A couple of more gameplay advice for veritania/Baran

Veritania:
-when she does her regular attack, she hits just a bit behind where you are and you can move by a veryvery small amount towards her or to the side and keep attacking.
-when she is in the frost mist in later phases where the clearing is super small it might be worthwhile to keep dpsing if she is in regular attack mode as you can sustain your hp with leech.
-When she does the barrage of iceshot attack you need to make a huge circle away from her
-you can hit her when she's doing the dive bombing attack. Just side step and right click to get a few more shots in if you need to refresh your charge duration


Baran
-His regular attack is more deadly and harder to kite compared to Veritania. But similar logic apply here. I find whirling blade through him as he begin his attack animation creates enough distance
-his charge up smash and charge up floor electricity skills are prime time to dps. After the floor changes you need to move away and bait him into a section of the floor that isn't electrified.
