Ranger - [3.21] 🌿Ultimate Claw Poison Pathfinder - Untouchable Viper - Molten Strike update by FEL - Forum

" Runtomrask wrote: " Question for those playing the build this league. How does it feel? Can someone draw a comparison to last league? I haven't played that much this league. Still on Perfect Form version and medium gear, but my take so far: League Mechanic This build is great for the league mechanic, especially with withering step. Small area, lots of monsters, being tanky is good. Rare weapons The main issue I think. It is harder to get great weapons. You will use Wasp Nest longer. The dmg increase from the "great weapons" is worse. Last leagues Imperial claw would give my build 1300k dps increase from wasp nest, the void fangs I linked gives 800k. Swapping weapons to Hunter Void Fangs on last leagues setup takes me from 10 mill dps to 8 mill dps. Conclusion? The build is still good, I hope I get the time to set-up Transcendence cluster-jewel, to see how that is. Withering step setup is a lot easier this league, with lab-changes. I personally advice getting it sooner, to free up the links totem-setup uses. The push from the build being good to great seems longer, and requires a bigger investment. Still very enjoyable and a strong build, just not as strong as before. Harder to reach Yalpe-levels from 3.13 I think. More buying and less crafting as well. If you think that the perfect form verwion is tanky, wait until you try transcendence :P	Posted by Yalpe#3404 on May 9, 2021, 7:50:34 AM Quote this Post

As usefull as this post is BlastinMot, are you sure? Of course, everything is harder with harvest changes, and the elder claw nerf, nerfed builds it really didn't need to nerf, but lets think for a bit. Theoretically, isn`t the old elder mod a 30% more modifier? And the new elder mod is at max a 29.5% DoT Multi? If I understand correctly these work fairly similar? But DoT Multi is a bit worse. Then you also loose the 50% increased Poison dmg, from the prefix. But When you are sitting on 1000% increased poison dmg, this is a pretty small amount.

Each strike had 60% more from the claw and 30% from the ascendancy (90% total). Chaos multi is not nearly strong. Where did you get 1000% increased poison damage from?

Its not impossible to get insane gear like we had in 3.13 but its not realistic. The gear wasn't easy to make with old Harvest...	Posted by Yalpe#3404 on May 9, 2021, 12:00:07 PM Quote this Post
I have pretty garbage gear and I facetank Aul, Sirus, Maven and all that. They die relatively quickly, so I guess the damage is fine? I did not play this build last league unfortunately to compare.	Posted by oamer#6667 on May 10, 2021, 11:32:30 AM Quote this Post
The level of power we had last league is pretty much impossible to get now. I even got more currency than last league this time but the prices and availability and usability of harvest have changed significantly. Forget the claws for a second. Having triple elevated mods on all of the rest of the gear is a powerlevel pretty difficult to reach now, even if you combine it with t4 aisling slams as you can only secure 4 good mods, not 6 anymore. That means more suffixes needed for res and stuff most likely, leading to less power overall.	Posted by Vennto#1610 on May 10, 2021, 11:48:08 AM Quote this Post
Didn't play last league but I'm really enjoing the tankiness for the league mechanic and the damage, while not great, issufficient for now on red maps and a5 sirius. I'm planning my next upgrades, need to finish the claws and was looking to improve my gem setup, as I didn't pay much attention to it yet. Looking on PoB, it seems that unbound ailments would be a HUGE dps increqase over any other support gem I have. Is there a reason not to use it? Or do I have anything misconfigured in PoB that's given me the wrong result? https://pastebin.com/0ehfrx32 I have around 7ex right now, was thinking of finishing one claw (with the delve + hunters orb method described on the last pages) and buying cheaper awakened gems with whats left. Still need to improve helmet, gloves and amulet too, but was thinking the claws were a priority, right?	Posted by Apendice#7165 on May 14, 2021, 12:00:49 PM Quote this Post
50% more poison damage in the new 3.15 manifesto. Considering this build as a league starter.	Posted by Fire309#4332 on Jul 19, 2021, 9:03:46 PM Quote this Post
