[3.25] Scourge Arrow Poison Prolif Pathfinder - Fast, tanky, fun to play

Wouldn't you want the SA links in the chest for the +1 and the chaos support? Or do the ballistas do more (or more consistent) damage?

Yea the ballistas do way more damage. And also the +1 corruption is for getting them to lvl 22 threshold for extra ballista and that is very important.

Ah ok, that makes sense, thanks!
15th August 2022
3.19 Lake of Kalandra League Update
- Removed Ward variation of the build (as it is no longer possible without
recombinators)
- Dropped Melding of the Flesh as it was nerfed and we cant go as high with
max resistances anymore
- Replaced Purity of Elements with Grace (as now we need to actually
build evasion to live)
- Replaced Master Surgeon and Nature's Adrenaline with Master
Alchemist (as it is mandatory now because Nature's Boon** was nerfed)
and Nature's Reprisal. Flagellant prefix on flasks was nerfed what
also mostly kills the recovery from Master Surgeon so now we also go for
flask effect stacking again instead.
- Replaced Puirty of Ice with Arctic Armour to get back some mapping
survivability from Master Surgeon loss
- Replaced chest with The Covenant as because of the focus mod nerf this
chest is now needed to not be 0dps. This also means we lose chest implicits
and phys taken as fire so this is another massive hit to survivability.
- Replaced Lifetap on Malevolence with Inspiration as lifetap no
longer works with blessing so now we need enough flask effect to make
Malevolence cost 0 mana instead
- Switched to Uber DPS in PoB because of DoT dps cap that I was reaching on normal bosses
- Overall the build was nerfed but if Covenant will be cheap its now easier to
get some damage on lower budget at the cost of massive hit to survivability.
The high end of the build was massively nerfed.


New pob is already in main post (important, the new pob is now on new link hosted on pobb.in)

What is with the Divine Flesh version?
Wasn't it a bit more tankier with the trade off to have less DPS?

Yea but with the focus helmet mod nerf and the new covenant you basically have to go for that chest because its too good (and makes up for the huge dps loss). And without chest no more - max chaos res implicit so oh well, no divine flesh either.

Are you at all worried about the potential cost of the timeless jewel? Seems to be where we get a lot of our damage from and I'm worried with the changes to divines that getting such a well rolled jewel, even though they're solved now, will still be exceedingly expensive.

You honestly just need Ritual of Shadows and nothing else from it, even wrong keystone is fine. And from what I saw when I was browsing seeds is that Ritual of Shadows is extremely common one so it has bunch of decent seeds and a shitton of usable ones. So you will ideally just be buying dropped jewels and not divining them.

FYI, I wanted to let y'all know that some streamers are talking about going PC/Helix -> Scourge Arrow Totems as a starting build. That plus the some amount rarer uniques mean Darkscorn especially and some others might be a bit higher in price than normal, so take that into account when planning!
The totems are the real all-stars of single target DPS, right? I just want to make sure I'm understanding your POB correctly. Even if taken out of the Covenant chest, they're still doing more damage than the self-channel, so you during bosses you primarily want to focus on dodging, keeping infusion active, and keeping all totems active, right? Thanks!
