My current gear.

The next steps, I'm assuming in this order:
* Empower 4
* Ammy with a +1 to Dex gems
* annoint the new ammy
* better quiver with double multipliers

And the following whenever:
* better -mana rings (but I'm comfortable with current mana usage, maybe it'll change once I get Empower4)
* better enchants on helm and boots (running lab gets boring though)
* health flask to Witchfire whenever I get anti-bleed jewel

Anything else I'm missing? I'm assuming that'll cost me the next 20-30ex?

~~

Also, roughly how much chaos resist should I aim for? I currently have +24.

What are stats priority for us after meeting gear requirements?
Str for health first, Int for mana, then Dex for evade?
Looks like you've got a great handle on what's remaining for you to max this out. I'd add in Awakened versions of your TR supports, they seem to run 30-40c.

Probably have to do the new amulet and rings at the same time, it'll mess your resistance balance up.

Chaos resist isn't that important. I'm running -15% and it hasn't been a problem. I do use Soul of Shakari in the pantheon, and I've upgraded it for the poison immunity.

Dex until you can max your movespeed for QOTF with flasks up, then strength, then int.

Hey there

I worked on this build for a couple of months now. obviously on standard :P
but yeah, I love it!
worked pretty well with budget gear but I decided to dump "a bit" more currency into it

Just crafted the boots yesterday for the "cannot be frozen" mod so I can use ignite immunity on a flask, which is pretty nice cuz burning ground/ignite can be a pain in the ***
will run uber lab for the move speed enchant and than I think I'm done.
I could change the quiver for one with dmg over time/chaos dot multi but honestly, Awakener, Uber Elder, Shaper and everyone else is already too easy :)

If you guys have some ideas for improvment, please let me know
I'm always up for crafting and spending more currency :)



here are some stats:

4015 hp
3271 es
58% atk dodge
62% spell dodge
42k+ evasion (enough for max move speed with legacy queen)
75% chance to evade attacks
75% all resistance
13% chaos res (38% chaos res aginst damage over time)
~6 mill+ pob shaper dps
147% move speed (157% with boot enchant soon)
up to 8 pods per attack
19% phys dmg reduction
blind
7 mana per use (with 56 mana left)

all this with the Trickster ascendancy is hella awesome :D



thanks for the build guide!
its real fun to play - got my first char to lvl 100 with it

crafted and lost some survivability for this, but in the end dps feels significantly higher and looks like aoe isn't a problem (at least with carcass jack, aoe nodes and dying sun). Last time i tried +1 arrow helmet i had no dying sun and quiver without +1 arrow, difference wasn't visible to me, with 9 arrows its another story. Will test some more until i kill the quiver in the temple lmao (one out of 4 survived with no mods so far)
Sadly redeemer's orb gave me the worst mod on helmet i think
What's the plan for maps that cant regen life/mana?
The boss doesnt summon minions so I cant even use frenzy (which costs 0mp) to get mana.
I think my jewel is suppose to give mana leech, but it's not working.

I had to go back to character screen and just try again. Second time with portal nearby and going back to hideout to refill.

I crafted my DREAM bow in SSF :D I'm prettyyy happy \o/

I was using all the alts, chaos, scours and alchs I had to try and get attack speed and dot multi, and it finally happened. Just alt the T1 dot multi, and regaled freaking T1 attack speed!

I'll quality it to 28% with hillock and then try to 6L.

edit: 6 linked in 367 fusings:



Divined 1 off perfect.

That's outstanding! I've been trying to craft the same thing in regular metamorph for weeks with no luck so far. I suspect that's why all the top tier bows for sale on the market have gone up in price to 50+ ex each, once folks started working out the math and realizing they have to throw literally thousands and thousands of alts / augs and probably hundreds of regals at a bow to get there.

I think I worked out another viable option for main weapon. It loses attack speed, but potentially ends at +6 Toxic rain from the bow mods.


Important! --> With better luck, we can add +1 Dex gems to the above bow.

It's my first significant meta-craft, I'd love any feedback. It seems likely it can be improved, or varied better.

What I linked above was the 1 in 3 least lucky outcome, and I believe it's within 10% of the best currently craftable option.

With the recent reddit thread indicating that beastcrafting ignores the item level rules, or uses some alternate method like beasts level, I came up with this:

Get iLvl 1 Short Bow:
Turn in Hunter's Resolve 8/8 at Lvl 1 until Quill Rain
Corrupt Qill rain 1 in 4 rare corrupt.
Sell with 4 other rare Short Bow (any level)
This gives uncorrupted iLvl 1 short bow (scour base)

Fossil Craft gem suffixes:
This is the time to roll fossil quality, sells to vendors etc before further crafting. Optional, but I rolled 25% quality for easier linking later.
Roll Faceted for the goal of dex/str gems with open prefix and suffix
I added fossils to cut off additional possibility slightly (optional?) and rolled a 3 socket:
Faceted, Aetheric, Corroded

Shape item for beast crafting:
Overall goal is 2 good gem mods isolated with empty suffix
In my case I had both prefix and suffix slots open already, Annuls or other methods are probably needed depending on your roll, or reset and re-roll the fossil
Scour prefixes
This should be a 0 prefix 2 gem suffix rare

Beast craft +1 all gems:
This is similar to the exalt slam method, but we can't exalt slam because iLvl 1 cannot roll +1 all gems
+Cannot roll attack mods
Beast craft -1 suffix, +1 prefix
This will add +1 all gems to prefixes, without conflicting with iLvl 1 item requirements!
This will also remove 1 random suffix. The best luck is removing "Cannot roll attack mods" which is the best outcome. Losing a +str or +dex are less ideal, but probably still reasonably good. (I lost +dex)

From there, it's just meta crafting as usual:
+3 crafted mods
+2 support gems
+Chaos dot multi

With the lucky outcome and an empower, this means the bow will grant overall +5 various gem levels. TR directly gets +1 all gems, +1 dex gems. Empower gets +1 all gems, +1 str gems, +2 support gems for. This means the bow is directly granting TR +6 levels! with supports mostly being +3.

The down side here is there isn't room for attack speed, which with luck maxes at 19%.

I got lucky up front (first fossil roll was good), but lost the +dex in the beast crafting step. Overall it cost 8 raw exalts and around 2 more exalts in components and other costs.

I don't know quite how the better version of the bow compares, but the crafting route was interesting.

Again, it's my first "big" craft, and I'd love an ideas or alternatives from experienced crafters :)

Outright genius.

You could beastcraft an imprint just before the Beast craft -1 suffix, +1 prefix step. Then if it doesn't annul away cannot roll attack mods, just use the imprint and try again. Losing attack speed... I need to run the numbers in PoB, but I can't imagine it's going to matter, the extra gem levels are going to overpower that.

Edit: Well, I ran the numbers in PoB and plugged them into the spreadsheet, and I was incorrect. This method gives some wicked damage numbers, but it still loses to the attack speed / DoT multi bow. On my setup, the attack speed / DoT multi bow is putting out 9.2 million, this is 8.4 million.
