Damage is fine, but can't stay alive whatsoever in t14+ maps, forget about bosses entirely because I just get 1 hit.

I also still die to some T16 bosses when I play carelessly, but

How much life do you have?

Because no life on ring lol...
Really bad life roll on belt...
Really bad life roll on shoes...
And 59 life on your 6link body armor?

There is HUGE room left for improving your defense here.

I have around 5k health

Well OK, thats REALLY low considered you have taken every node in the big life wheel. all of these items can help you a lot if you get them with proper life rolls. You need to reinvest.

Next Question, you are using Darkscorn and have specced into Point Blank at the bottom of your tree. Hm, But where is your timeless jewel to cap out chaos resistance?

Not sure if you understand the mechanics of Darkscorn and why its so good for us. It converts incoming physical damage into chaos damage.
the timeless jewel that you need (glorious vanity, xibaqua)brings your maximum chaos resistance to 85%. That means that you have a CRAZY damage reduction for chaos damage. so all the incoming damage that is converted to chaos damage will deal WAY less damage to you.

But as you are not even using the timeless jewel, darkscorn does not even give you the effect which makes the bow so good.

next question, the entire totem wheel at the bottom right of the skill tree. why? you dont need that, you are not even using siege ballista.
4 wasted skill tree points.

remove them and use them to unlock the jewel socket next to point blank and put a timeless jewel in there lol.

next thing... none of your gems have quality?
hm, you need to do some more research on the basics for this build and you can easily have a huge improvement in dps and defenses with some little easy and small fixes.

hit me up if u need help

Hi
I don't get it how people can run 2 nostalgias or nostagia + impresence with maximising their resists? I can see some resistances on their belt, boots and maybe on one ring/amulet but that is not close enough to max them?
Mostly no resistances on their quivers, gloves or helmets?
To max my resistance I had to have belt, boots, ring amulet and some random minor resistances on other gear like helmet, chest or jewels?

Am I missing something?

Most people use jewels with life + elemental resist + dual resist to cap.

It is a little disconcerting to click your metamorph character link and arrive to a naked lvl 88 ranger. You appear to have abandoned it in favor of some sweet looking oculist build.

This league I've played skelemancer, DW Lacerate (best experience thus far), and then a Molten Jugg. Each of these builds I abandoned for one reason or another. Each time I've abandoned a build I sole my gear and reinvested into the next.

Is that what you have done with your Scourge Ranger? If so, what was the motivating factors.

I don't want to invest any more time or currency into this build if it is having issues in 3.9.

The build was performing just fine, but as I played it like 3rd league in a row, it got old quicker than I expected and in terms of gearing and tree, not much changed (exept ballistas), so I just switched to something new (also before my current occultist I rolled like 4 different builds as well, lol, like that occult char was originally fang build).

Could anyone help out a fellow noob and please tell me if this belt is decent (as in good for levelling/beginning of maps) and if the change to stygian one is really needed? Thanks )

Its decent for survivability but you are losing despair what is pretty big. But as long as you feel like you are not missing damage its fine.

Hi there,

i am a bit confuse between the original guide and some players who are posting their stuff ..

Are we going with Unbound Ailments or Vile toxin ?
if you can help me, thanks !
