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

So we want 3 arrows total, master fletcher and one on the quiver?

Anyone got any suggestions for eternal struggle? I was messing with the pob since the ones on there aren't on trade or way too much. Looked like ailment duration was really good dps but that's the eater of worlds implicit meaning we would lose culling if it's higher tier than the exarch mod and I can't seem to find any useful exarch mods for a decent price.

3 arrows total yes.

And for Eternal Struggle, I think this next small build update will be pretty useful for that :d

Some edit on the crafting steps. For the high budget belt crafting, at step 9, you'd preferably want chaos damage as your only prefix. If you have 2 prefix, repeat step 9. Because when you Aisling, it might hit the crafted mod and not the useless prefix. If that's the case, you'll have a unremovable useless prefix.

Alright so I just switched to this from a Poison Artillery Barrage build, level 1 gems and it's doing insane damage already comparably.

I'm just a little confused, so I'm trying to combine a little of the starter mixed with the important things I could afford from the default/higher budget.

So I only have enough mana to run Mal/PB/AA I'm assuming that's the most optimal for me now? Can you look at my profile and advise me most important upgrades/changes from here, I'd appreciate it so much thanks.


Well I see that you are wearing 2 regular amethysts but with eternal struggle with vengeant annoint which means you are missing source of extra curse. So try using anathema for that and get source of temp chains (either gloves or just the arcanist despair setup that starter has).

Also im not sure if you can sustain the boots yet but I assume that at minimum they drain all your ES which is suboptimal, ideally you really want to get Vitality watchers before running the boots (that is also the point of reserving lvl 1 vitality, otherwise its not needed).

And yea its either Mal + PB + AA or Grace + PB + AA, depending on how comfortable you are with your survivability atm. I ran grace PB aa for a while until I got lethal pride and after that evetually also endus. Without that you will probably get destroyed by phys damage in maps.

Been absolutely loving the build, I'm just too much of a dumbass to remember pressing 1 sometimes esp when I'm reading some expedition stuff. Just need to get that muscle memory lol


I still die a lot to simply forgetting to press life flask lul thats normal :d


So I'm still missing something here I guess, I got a Watcher's Eye with Vit mod and Spiked Concoction medium cluster and still cant use Approaching Flames without insta gibbing myself.

What am I missing?

I see you're not using %increased effect on the bismuth flask, you don"t have 20% quality and you do'nt have a "reused at he end of flask effect" enchant too so uh, sorry if it's a bit too obvious but are you capped on fire res ? if yes, are you pressing your elemental resist flask before doing your test ? (and are you sure you have permanent bismuth flask uptime with your current setup)

Check your pob, hover over your flask. There should some writing about your life recovery over flask duration, the wording is in white. Make sure you have around 3k life/s to use the boots. Or share your pob.

Thanks to both of you, I was being an idiot I'm not fire res capped with my bismuth I guess I gotta hunt for some. I figured out I pretty much have enough regen with my Divine at 12k/s to your tip Eric.

Mind sharing your pob? I find it insane you'd have 12k/s regen with your flasks

My bismuth basically solves all my res issue, without it I'm at -37, with it, easy res capped

Also, I find that quicksilver with increased duration is better since it gives 100% uptime at the cost of 20 movespeed

Is it possible to do wave 30 with this build ? Especially in the small layouts like Lioneye's watch it feels like my ballistas die before firing and I just get eventually overwhelmed, granted I don't have uber gear yet but still, got stuck on wave 26 twice
I was trying to make a ballistas poison build for the new pathfinder. I wanted my build to be ssf viable and was wondering if this setup works at all without the uniques? I was going to manually cast scourge arrow with mirage archer on it and then set up siege ballistas with added chaos damage since they seemed to have better poison damage than ballista supported scourge arrow. This is my first league so I could be completely missing how to get the math right with sourge arrow ballistas.
