[3.4] lddiamond's Toxic Rain Penta RAT Hierophant, All Content, League Starter, Deathless Uber
|
Think I'm still going with this for my league starter. Going to aim to farm for 6L Thicket Bow cards first, then keep farming for +2 Bow Gem Essence and farm 2 Exalt for guaranteed +3 bow. Playing Private league for 3.5 start with group of 10, so should be quite a bit of fun.
One thing I noticed while messing around with this in SSF, is that Herald of Purity still summons minions even though the totems are doing the killing? Is this not a good Herald to use due to all the + minion damage/attack speed nodes we're taking? |

" +3 bow will work for the build. It will feel a little different, but you'll still have great damage. I didn't know Herald of Purity worked. If so, it don't hurt to run it. |

" Should've seen this coming. Ah well. Was incredibly fun the last league. Thank you regardless for posting this build. |

" Hey friend can you explain how the crafting of the bow works? Is it going to take a lot of Scouring and Deafening Essence of Dread to get the desired results ? I mean what other stats do you need on the bow for it to work and get a +3 to bow gems after you exalt it? Last edited by AHaKuH#1518 on Dec 7, 2018, 6:39:32 AM

" you can look up nugis guides on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrHClk8lUM8 even though tora lvl 8 isnt there anymore but prob easier to get the craft now. I think this build would still run fine for mapping with quill then swap to a +2 bow (to start with, easy to get from porcupine cards) for bosses. |

Update on progress:
Multi totem support makes life a ton easier. No issues with damage output for the story thus far. I found a Storm Cloud and it's attack speed is helping put out serious numbers. Further testing: Multiple Totems Support doesn't increase your totems dropped from 2 to 3 as a heirophant once you have the ascendancy to gain 1 more on drop. 2 totems supported doesn't increase the maximum allowed totems beyond the initial +2 as well. RIP my dreams. Last edited by darkcloud606#1715 on Dec 8, 2018, 9:53:28 AM

Currently playing the build as a scion Pathfinder/Hiero.
Only got myself a quillrain, tabula and a skirmish. Works like a charm, perma Flasks and 3-4 Totems. Still a bit squishy but that should work itself out with better gear. As a Scion it should be doable as a league starter as well -> no need to mule the gems. Works as 3 Totems + self cast or 4 Totems. Edit: Damage falls off immensly at Yellow Maps, feels really bad then. Probably need a good (and expensive) +gem level Bow for it to really work again. Too bad, really liked it so far :( Last edited by Shishamaru#6603 on Dec 11, 2018, 3:11:49 PM
