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

Spoiler


Second Character this league, because i wanted to try out the build - invested my currency in it.

Mapping feels smooth and leveling is so f**kn fast.

Still need to change my flasks and get more levels + a better bow and overall better gear, but for the "start" it melts everything and is so defensive to play with all that evasion + dodge.

The bow was crafted with a few dread essences, till i hit that AS.

Having a lot of fun with your build!
Will reply as soon as i got some more upgrades

P.S: That amulet was yours @typicaldemon :D!

Hi i want to ask which items i should upgrade next
i was thinking about a bow +3 or the new hunter amu with +1 to dex gems
How needed are the frenzy charges ?
Why is there a culling strike in movement skills ?

Im still leveling and gearing up, but i really like having my despair linked to blasphemy support for auto cursing things around me.
Using malevolence+despair and (can) turn on discpipline, but i need to get more mana nodes to actually have enough usable mana for the TC/CA. (Dont have enlighten yet)

Also, is there any way to fit blight along with wither in this build ?


Leveling using caustic arrow instead of toxic rain right now, because the damage difference is quite big.... between the two skills for now.

Look at that chaos per second dmg, gems are 1 lvl apart



First time playing a bow build, why is TR better than CA ?

Right now it feels like im playing a weaker version of ED trickster.

Please explain why TR is so highly regarded.

TY

Frenzy charges are not necessary. However attack speed is important, and frenzy charges give that, so if possible it is good to have.
Culling strike gives your "blink arrow" that creates an illusion a cull.
Despair blasphemy is completely useless and waste of mana reservation, buy witchfire brew and get the same but better. About mana read first post, somewhere in priorities i believe.
TR is not a tooltip build, read first post for info how to calculate DPS. Cant say that CA is better or worse than TR, but TR kills everything during leveling and there was no reason to even try something else.

Which Lvling uniques would be good to this build? any 6L bow with +3gems and atk speed is enough?
did you calculate dps the bow +3 DoT Multi Bow? another question. this bow is bether than elder with vicious projectile?
Man I tried Sirus with this build and I think we're just absolutely fucked on that fight, no way to refill flasks as far as I could tell, not even mentioning the shitty aoes everywhere but that's more of a fight mechanic thing rather than just not being able to flask at all.

Thanks for your build. Can u look at my build?

Just basics that I can see - gem levels (I bought a level 20 corrupt TR gem, cost me a whole 1c) and I keep leveling others in my off hand slots for the level 21 corrupt. Flasks as TD mentioned. Jewel slots and jewels. You could try to source gloves and a quiver with a damage multiplier affix, if it'll fit without killing your mana / resists. Might be worthwhile to toss a point into one of the +30 strength nodes on the tree and moving to a stygian vise belt?

My gear atm - Id like a better bow but i have no luck with it at all. i got the quiver cheap before it went up in price by a ton.

Any tips would be helpful.









Got this bow but it has no dmg multi. not sure if its worth modding guessing not.

Nice. It's nice to see someone who gets it. :)

Not much to do here, to be honest. Your rain of arrows setup in the quiver would probably be better off as Frenzy. RoA is great for cursing larger groups, but you shouldn't need the curse on mobs anyway, just bosses, and the frenzy charges will give you a nice dps boost for those bosses.

Better bow. Check out the bow crafting section, it really does a good job of describing how to go about it. It's at the very end of post #1.

Empower level 3 is worthwhile IIRC, level 4 is absolutely worth it.

You could try to source gloves with a damage multiplier affix, and an amulet with +1 to dex gems, as long as it doesn't cripple your mana or resists.
