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

You mention that the pantheon of choice for Legion was Arakaali/Ralakesh for the DoT mitigation because of League mechanic, but I'm curious whether that's still the good one to go for, or if Lunaris/Solaris might be the better option this league?

Build going strong so far, no issues with Cassia missions or yellow/red maps on a +2 6link bow!

Man, I've honestly stop reading this after "Pathfinder is bad. Do not play it."

I mean, WTF?

It's a guide not gospel. Play what you want, it's your character. Take whatever is useful from the guide and adapt to your own playstyle.

There's 2 styles of choosing your build, 1 is pick a skill and find best ascendancy for it, if you pick any dot build then trickster wins.

The other one is pick your ascendancy and decide what skill synergizes with it. You wouldn't pick toxic rain on a chieftain or inquisitor for example. Any ranger ascendancy, occultist or champion could probably be used.

Unfortunately pathfinder, raider, champion and juggernaut are offering QoL not anything specific. They are never bad, but don't shine in anything in particular. They're "jack of all trades master of none".

You can craft +3 bow much cheaper. Base for 1ex + few resonators (20c per try) + craft chaos multi(25c) = 2-2.5ex

What fossils would you use to craft this? Just aetheric fossils + metallic/corroded fossils?

Corroded and Metallic for sure. I wouldn't use Aetheric, it nerfs the possibility for attack speed suffix.

Jagged removed the last available prefix that isn't +gems.

Shuddering makes it more likely to hit the attack speed suffix.

Guys, actually I've a question regarding crafting the bow. What's the point of using Annulment if you have 1 prefix and 1 suffix? Farric Wolf Alpha bestiary craft removes a random suffix anyway, right?

Cannot roll attack mods is a suffix, so there's a chance wolf will remove that one and leave the garbage there. If it removes the other one you can just "remove crafted mod" from the bench but it's a 50/50 gamble. Other option is once you get a +3 bow to craft "prefixes cannot be changed" and scour but that's 2 ex you have to pay to fix it if it got screwed.

Thanks! Somehow I did not realise those "special" mods being prefixes or suffixes :D

Hey, I am running a pretty shitty bow, but still my damage feels super low, even in white maps it takes a really long time to kill some rares. Could someone check my char and look if I am doing something wrong (outside of shit bow).

Lvl 20 toxic rain is 2c so you can just swap your lvl 19 for that. Despair on cwdt not sure about that, if you don't get hit then you don't apply the curse? Also faster casting isn't really the best choice, there are better gems outlined in the guide. Also remember to drop totem on any beefy rare / boss.

Also +2 bow is 1 alch, but you'd have to get links on it yourself so count what you think it's best (5l prophecy was 27c atm).
