(3.14) Toxic Rain + Caustic Arrow | 5-10m Sirus DPS | Fast + Durable | 50c Budget/SSF Uber Elder

Pretty much im running t16 max quality , corrupted , with few fragments and scarab + master mission and all is fine. Killed Sirius @ awakening 8 few times without many problems. I guess next step would be changing 1 ring and amulet to get more life and - mana cost @ amulet. And getting better watchers eye ? Cuz at the moment ive got with clarity - mana cost for non channeling spells. Oh and also Enchant for the helm , but that will be my rng at running labs.

Can someone look at my gear/tree and see if i'm missing something obvious? I feel like my clear speed and survivability isn't the greatest even though I've invested quite a bit in the build.

The only real changes I've made is going for the AS speed nodes in the bottom right and adding cluster jewels for increased chaos damage.

Also, is my bow up to par or should I try to find something better?

Swift venoms is pointless. This isn't a poison build. You basically wasted these points.

Fleetfoot is also meh, for all this travelling you could just pick a small cluster jewel with some extra utility (if you want movement speed boost No Witnesses or Darting Movements could be a replacement for fleetfoot), and I think Survivalist would be a better investment if you want some extra evasion.

But generally these "alterations" to the tree are just costing you points. For example you skipped Blood Drinker cluster so you're missing on life.

The jewels are some poor choices too. The abyss jewel is basically a 1-mod onslaught, added damage to attacks is pointless as we don't scale it, and crit is nonexistent so the condition if you crit recently won't be met. You could get a 2-mod jewel with life and onslaught and it would be better. Increased damage with bows is also only buffing the initial hit not the dot part.

Also the implicit from gripped gloves doesn't work either. It's kinda weird but "projectile damage" works (for example fury bolts notable) but "projectile attack damage" doesn't (for example Longshot). You could just get hunter influenced gloves with chaos dot multi (es or evasion base).

Now skills, I'm gonna repeat myself again, but lvl 21 toxic rain is important. Yes even with 0% quality. Also look into replacing damage on full life with empower because if you have survivability issues you will not always be on full life.

You don't have discipline. Meanwhile you have lvl 20 clarity? That's such a waste of mana reservation. Invest in -mana cost rings or get the elreon craft (unlock it yourself or get crafting service), you can use vaal clairty with lvl 1 clarity, but you shouldn't need lvl 20 clarity, more importantly it makes you lose a defensive aura.

Also I have no idea what's this setup in your boots. This CWDT gem doesn't seem to do anything as it's too low level in comparison to steelskin linked to it. Also arctic armour? That would only make sense imo if you used perfect form and got the reservation for free. Otherwise, use discipline and if you ever come to a point you can squeeze another mana reservation I'd probably opt for aspect of the spider.

At some point you should look into getting a hunter amulet with chaos multi or +1 to chaos / dex gems, but first I'd work on the things listed above. Changing the bow for the one with +2 to support gems doesn't make any sense until you get empower 3 / 4, so I'd leave it for later too. It's a +3 bow with chaos multi so it's fine for now.

Thank you so much for the reply, I'm still new to these types of builds so I have a lot to learn.

Thanks so much for advice!

How do you craft the gloves listed in the build? I can't find a craft that gives that much energy shield.

What to upgrade next? Im in total confusion cause i dont know what can i do..

what do you guys think I should do to improve my dmg?
nvm the flasks, haha

Hey, I have a question, so bare with me, if it seems too simple :)
So, for enlighten support, we need to lvl/buy a lvl 3, and then corrupt it, hopping it would get to lvl 4. Reaching lvl 5 with the help of Vertex, so we can have a mana multiplier of 84%, right?

That's the best case scenario and is easier said than done, otherwise just path to Charisma for -8% mana reserve.
