Darkscorn is extra defense (with Divine Flesh its basically fortify for phys damage), rare bow is extra damage.

I had the same issue than you. This build is really bad at taking down boss it seems. Now I got better gear and I can kill bosses faster but it seems rather slow compared to other builds. Clearspeed is really good though.

The issue seems to come from Scourge Arrow not hitting bosses enough. I noticed that big boss like the "Brine King" (the big crab) dies faster than other bosses.

I replaced wither totem by Scourge Arrow ballista with wither support maybe you can try this too.

Same problem here. Even with Darkscorn and 6L, boss dps is really low.
I know an additional arrow + helmet enchant should help, but it seems pretty expensive for only farming T10+ boss.

Am I missing something ?

Thinking about switching to pestilent strike atm.

Could this Build also work with Caustic Arrow or Toxic Rain?

hey im new to bow builds, i just got to mapping and i dont know what im doing wrong with the build so far. anyone peek at my profile and help me out?

I'm currently playing in ssf any advice on gearing past this point? I have some kinda scuffed gear due to using a flesh and stone reservation helm and an int 6L chest piece but I dont have any other 6L's I can use. Got pretty lucky with the weapon and ID'd that.




EDIT:

Just got made this chest got super lucky with the 6L Praise Kuduku. Killed a5 sirus and it was pretty rough tbh. I'm not really great at bossing but I feel like my damage felt pretty low sadly. I know POB says I should have like 2 mill dps but the actual effective combat dps is so much lower since I have to constantly replace wither totems/cast curses and dodge so the dps feels pretty low not sure what else I can do to increase my damage?

Caustic arrow nope, toxic rain maybe if you scale poison / herald of agony.

If you want to play CA / TR you should probably follow a guide dedicated to that build, it will require a lot of gear swaps.

Can u explain me the remove of mirage archer ? did it take nerf or something ?

Mirage Archer is still a viable option. Even last season it was more of a personal preference whether to use Mirage Archer of Vile Toxins. The former facilitates some damage (and thus life leech) whilst kiting, whereas the latter facilitates slightly higher damage which also applies more instantly (at the point of attack rather than with a hysteresis for the Mirage Archer).

Now, as many of us are relying on then new Medium Cluster passive Low Tolerance which scales our first hit on mobs, Vile Toxins may be preferable, given that we one-hit stuff (clearing in Delirium). However, I always carry around a Mirage Archer myself, allowing to temporarily swap the Vile Toxins for it for some tough bosses.

Could somebody look at my build please? the playthrough through the story was very smooth but since i do maps i am struggling. not only that i got more delirium rewards, i also die more often and don't know why.
