So what do we do swap in 6link Curse on hit setup, when we go gloves with temp chains? and what to swap in bow with vicsious proj int?

Maybe Maim or Blind support in curse setup, if you don't run quill rain - Faster Attack... In main setup Maim, Add fire damage or Vile Toxins.

What would i take for ascendancy points now that the other ES node is gone? The only one that seems useful at all is void beacon so ill probably just take that.

Indeed, void beacon is pretty good, since our Crawler deals some chaos damage. It's not the build that profits it the most, but it's something. :)

another question, so i crafted the bow you recommend in the guide and with that setup herald of agony reserves 88% of mana making it impossible to use discipline even with enlighten 3 so im not sure what i should do there.

Edit: Actually i just decided to buy a reduced HoAG helmet enchant and that solves the issue.

Hi,

Can you post the PoB to your build so I can look into it?

Another solution is to check out this build, which uses the bow I recommend. :)

Hello, I played with this build and having fun.

But my character looks so weak in POB.

Can you give me some advice on what's strange?

Even considering passives and gem levels, it looks really weird.

Here's my pob : https://pastebin.com/dzPSAWHp

I really need your advice.

For more DPS you need:

1. Bow with +1 level of Socketed gems, + 2 level Support gems with at least 3 lvl empower in Hoag setup
2. Enchant on helmet with 30% reduse hoag reserve mana... Then you can use hatred + generosity setup.

And your accuracy of Rain of Arrows is 74%, its pretty bad... Need at least >=90%.

I currently playing this build, so just look on my char with shitty gear... My DPS is 1.5M on Shaper on max poison stacks.

Hi,

I took a look, and there are a few options you forgot to specify.

First, you have to specify the number of virulence stacks, which is almost always 40. Then, you have to tell PoB that there are 9 poisons on the enemy, for the effect of Vile Toxins. Also, you haven't taken Skittering Runes, Gravepact and Spiritual Command yet, which give a decent amount of damage. Then, your support and curse gems aren't lvl 20 yet, and you're still missing two abyss jewels, so it's normal that there's a discrepancy in damage. Also, you need to specify that the enemy has been hit by lightning damage recently, which increases the damage through Elemental Equilibrium.

When you've applied those corrections, let me know if you're more satisfied with the damage; if there's still a huge difference, I'll look further into it :)

On another note, how does the build feel in game? Do you feel like you have enough damage?

Those are indeed good options for increasing the PoB dps, but there's a discrepancy between his build and mine, both using Quill Rain, so I was looking for answers elsewhere :) But you're right, a different bow is a good way to have a better PoB dps, but remember that keeping high virulence stacks is crucial for effective dps, which is easier with a Quill Rain, so the difference between Quinn Rain and a crafted bow is not as huge as PoB says (even though there is a clear difference, I'm not questioning that at all).

Concerning accuracy rating, he seems to be travelling to Resolute Technique, which will solve this issue. Plus, it doesn't impact the PoB dps since we set the virulence to 40.

I appreciate the help though! :)

Thanks for advice!

I think I have to gather money more and more till I get that nice bow.
