[3.2] Chin Sol Blast Rain Raider 3m+ Shaper DPS 6500+ Hp [League Viable] Video's Up.

Welcome to my 3.2 Raider Blast Rain Guide!

Shaper

Guardian of the Hydra

Guardian of the Minotaur, 72% More Life, No OP Standard Gears


Hi guys this is my very first guide so feedback and suggestions are highly appreciated!

Introduction/Build Concept

Blast rain is a underrated bow skill because its overshadowed by the single target DPS of barrage. I personally dislike barrage for numerous of reasons, few of them being: the hit box feels awkward on moving targets, needing a high pdps bow, +1 arrows quiver and additional barrage projectiles enchant can be fairly pricey especially in league. The bread and butter of this build comes from stacking fire damage from abyss jewels then getting the 100% more bow damage at close range (this gives the added fire damage from abyss jewels 100% more damage multiplier as well) on top of this we have huge amount of penetration (from fire pen support gem, passives on skill tree and wise oak)


Highlights
-High DPS 3m+
-Tanky for a ranger build, 6.5k+ HP
-Fast Clear Speed with Tornado Shot
-100% elemental conversion
-Onslaught is almost always up
-150%~ movement speed with frenzy charges and quicksilver flask

Play Style
Because Chin sol knock back enemy in close range, if the boss you are fighting does not have unweavering, you need to attack then step forward, and repeat. For bosses that cant be knocked back (like shaper and guardians) just stand in close range and spam blast rain in their face. At level 100 you can achieve 7k+ hp using league gear fairly easily, this is very tanky especially for a ranger build, but this amount of health cannot save you from 1 hits such as: shaper slam, core malachai slam, uber atziri flame blast, guardian of the phoenix explosion.

Path of Building
League Passive + Gear: https://pastebin.com/rKd3t1t1 (level 93) 3m dps, 6.5k hp, vaal pact
Standard Passive + Gear: https://pastebin.com/KYt50zCq (level 93) 3m dps, 7.8k hp, instant leech


Keep in mind path of building cannot calculate the 75% chance of blast rain dealing a additional explosion enchantment, this is equivalent to 75% chance to deal 25% more damage which is equal 18.75% more dps, so the real dps using the league gear setup is 3.3m x 1.1875 = 3.56m dps.

My Standard Gears and Links



League Gears and Links



ABYSS JEWELS STATS IN TERMS OF PRIORITY FROM HIGHEST TO LOWEST: fire damage with bows, fire damage to attacks, attack speed if you dealt a critical strike recently, life.


LEAGUE BUILD DOES EXACT SAME DPS AS STANDARD BUILD ITS JUST LESS TANKY SO YOU CANT FACE TANK EVERYTHING. PATH OF BUILDING HAS BEEN ADJUSTED WITH FASTER ATTACK INSTEAD OF CHANCE TO IGNITE SUPPORT GEM, ALSO NON-LEGACY 15% PENETRATION WISE OAK.


Tornado Shot and Conversion Explaination
For Map Clearing we use Tornado Shot, Blast rain is meant for single target.

Tornado shot is a good clearing skill especially with pierce and is able to ignite to nearby monsters because of herald of ash.

Signal fire Quiver is used with tornado shot setup as it gives us 100% fire conversion (50% from xoph's blood, 50% from signal fire)

A rare quiver with high elemental damage and crit multiplier gives more dps than signal fire, because we are already 100% phys to fire conversion (50% from blast rain, 50% from xoph's blood) and because chin sol have a low pdps it doesnt benefit alot from phys as extra fire damage, while the rare quiver with elemental damage is able to scale all the flat fire damage from your abyss jewels.

never played inquisitor builds, but dead eye in order for it to be amazing you have to inflict bleeding on the enemy to get the bonuses from rupture, if you are a 100% elemental conversion bow build using with phys to lightning support and a signal's fire quiver you can think about buying a legacy signal's fire which has a 30-50% phys to fire conversion, ideally you want 1 with 49% so you are still 99% conversion and 1% phys to cause bleeding which helps proc rupture. In my case i cannot go dead eye because I'm using xoph's blood and the avatar of fire doesn't allow damages other than fire.
