CoC Quill Rain Help me

Hello so I have played that a few years ago and was wondering if any of you know which spells i should put in it and Unique. I have not found any build or im blind TODAY. I'm not experienced enought to do a talent tree myself or I'll need to use 40 Regrets out of poor judgement and regret.

So here is what i am looking for :

- What are the best spells to CoC ? ( there base dmg and everything )
- Is there any talent tree anyone have and can share to me ?
- any Unique i can use ?
- What stats i should prioritise ? ( Probably crit/Acu/Life On Hit )
- Do you guys think it will be Viable ?

I recall using Artic breath and Fireball.

Thank you and may the RNG God be with you.

Quill Rain has been nerf (40% less damage), so you may want to use another bow.
PoE forums ignore list script:
http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/162657

0.4: added "ignore" button. ignore list is now saved locally.
my plan is to play Quill Rain for the insane attack speed and Crit as many time as possible i dont want to do dmg with Quill rain but with the spells that will come out.

6 Link Quill Rain

Barage - Cast on crit - Crit chance - GMP - Fireball -Artic Breath

this would be a hypotetical 6 link but im sure tehre is much better skills

Quill Rain nerf effects spells you cast too. Previously the bow only reduced Weapon Damage, now it reduces all damage you deal by 40%.

Yea Quill Rain might be ok for leveling but I would ditch it ASAP for a bow with high crit.
-Use barrage - CoC - Inc. Crit Strikes - Spell - Spell - Support. I am running ball lightning, ice spear, and slower projectiles. There are tons of spells you can use but think of how you plan on scaling them (I am a deadeye, get a lot of projectile bonuses, so I want my spells to be projectiles). Ball lightning and ice spear are what I'm using now cuz they seem best for single target but I've messed around will every spell under the moon and there's lots of good options. If you want to use other spells consider throwing in inc. critical damage or elemental focus (Won't be able to inflict ailments though) instead of slower proj. The reason barrage is good for your trigger is because of the high attack rate and the multiple arrows. The multiple arrows will help trigger your spells on single target. For wave clear throw a volley fire jewel into your tree and keep using barrage (I would even recommend volley fire for single target), or use something like rain of arrows/tornado shot/even toxic rain works.
I went deadeye, would highly recommend for the ez max accuracy, projectiles, and other goodies.
-Uniques: Tombfist is always good, Oskarm is good, Maligaro's virtuosity is good, I'm using malachai's artifice for the juicy EE dmg boost (Just make sure the spell you use to proc EE is a different elemental type than the spells you CoC). Rat's nest is good, my choice is Starkonja's for helm. Get volley fire jewel, lioneye's fall to convert the claw crit nodes to bow crit, and a grace watcher's eye. I used haste up until about t5 maps and then swapped for grace and got a grace + movespeed watcher's eye (Tons of fun btw).
-As important as the uniques are the shaper gears you can get: Life gain on spell hit/Assasin's mark on hit ring, CoC/power charge on crit bow would be amazing, ele pen on amulet.
-After your accuracy (None needed if your deadeye), and crit chance are high enough (You definitely want 80-90%+ crit chance), prioritize Crit mult > Flat spell damage (not of the type your Malachi's artifice spell is if you're using) > % Proj dmg/% Spell dmg. Spell crit is ok too. Later on you can cast even more spells a second by adding some cooldown reduction to your gear. This will mean you need some attack speed however. Your attack speed only needs to be about 3 attack/sec for barrage to cast your CoC spells 6 times/sec, which is about what the base cooldown of CoC allows (it's 6.666 actually so maybe get a little more than 3 APS).
-You can copy my deadeye's talent tree from here on the forums --->
but beware it is subject to change and might not be 100% optimized at the moment.
-It is viable (I'm cruising through red maps atm) and a lot of fun but can be complicated which is what I think scares a lot of people away.
