You can find them as rare drops while Delving, although I just bought mine off the market.

what about new league leveling and hc-viability?

I'm going to be completely honest with you, I wouldn't suggest this build as a day 1 League build since bow leveling tends to be a real pain in the ass without any gear, but if you really insisted on it I would recommend trying to get a Quill Rain ASAP and level with RoA. As far as HC viability, I don't play hardcore and don't ever intend to but the build is survivable enough that I'm confident I could do the game deathless with more defense invested into it.

I don't think leveling as bow is a good idea unless you're used to leveling as a bow char. You could try something like toxic rain and rain of arrows but tbh id just go sunder and respec if you want something simple.

Amazing build guide! I hope to run this for Betrayal league. Have you considered a section in your guide for getting upgrades in order of importance or even a section for starting out fresh in a new league?

Perhaps when I have more time I could do a section on upgrade importance, also I really don't recommend this build as a day 1 fresh league build, reason being that bow leveling, especially as a Scion can be very tough without any gear. You can still make this build extremely early into the league if you want (I made this build just a week into Delve), I just wouldn't do it on day 1.

Opinion on including Hyrri's Ire in Betrayal? They're raising the added cold damage from 70 to 220.

Seems pretty strong.. adding about 20% in POB on a similar hopeshredder scion, as well as a shitload of dodge/evasion.

That's actually closer to 26% more damage, the percents are a bit different backwards.

100%-21%=79%
21/79=26%

Not to mention with how accessible it is, it'll actually be a MUCH bigger damage increase on a character that doesn't yet have strong abyss jewels.
