[3.12] Hasunic's Toxic Rain / Caustic Arrow Trickster | Leaguestarter | Ailment Immunity | SSF

Awesome! Do I need to worry about getting good mods prior to slamming the hunters orb, or can I just slam it and then adjust from there? The -9 chaos resist has a low value compared to the other chaos mods, so I'm guessing I'll have to do some Harvest crafting to get it.

That's up to you.
It adds a suffix

fill prefixes and slam, you most likely will get %int anyway

Thanks! I've managed to get a set of 3 T1 defence mods as prefixes, but I've had less luck with the suffixes, getting some pretty crap ones, and missing the -9 chaos res.

Since there doesn't seem to be an easy way to remove/add the suffix mods (hunter helmets have fire/cold/lightning mods as both prefixes and suffixes, making it risky to do a remove non-cold/fire/lighting, add cold/fire/lighting, etc.) am I best off just crafting 'prefixes cannot be changed' and then crafting the suffixes from there?

EDIT: As far as I can tell on poedb, there are no attack mod prefixes on hunter helms, only suffixes. So if I'm correct,I could do "remove non-attack/add attack" to target the suffixes I don't want. I'd just need to make sure I have no open suffix slots so that it's forced to remove and add a new suffix. Let me know if that makes sense.

EDIT #2: I was able to use the remove non-attack/add attack to get rid of the two suffixes I didn't want, then remove the attack mods. I ended up with the below. I might still try and remove the chaos res, but for now this is a nice step up. Can finally run Malevolence/Skitterbots/Flesh and Stone.

What would you guys do with this? To get the ailment help I could drop one of the tier 1 res but that kinda hurts. Also what defenses would you go with, the worlds my oyster there.

You always can fill all prefixes then double slam "Augment Chaos modifier" and you guaranteed +#% Chaos Res + -9% Chaos Res. There is only 2 chaos mods in suffixes.

Chaos dmg is decent implicit right?



Was trying to hit +1 gems but after then I checked how many mods are there and it seems almost impossible.

Also, which enchant is the best dps wise?
+1 Toxic Rain arrow?

This is my first time playing as an archer. Spent ~20-30ex on this gear. Check if everything is correct. I haven't crafted a bow yet, because I'm tired. :D

Did you make all this without even trying the skill? Lol that's insane, haha.

Gear checks out fine!

Look my harvest crafting section if you want to minmax, try to get your ailment avoidance to 100% and then you don't need the freeze enchant anymore.

Obviously you need a bow, haha. You can harvest craft the attack speed if you are having a hard time hitting attack speed and dot together.

Remember they changed the tag on +bow gems, so you can actually hit either +1 or +2 Bow gems if you block attack mods and slam

So, after a while and few other builds, I'm back to my league starter. I've spent almost whole day yesterday crafting my gear from scratch. It took me around 50ex to get to that point and unfortunatelly, one bad accident, I lost bow I posted before (with 39% chaos dmg implicit), while it had:
+1 gems
T1 DOT
multimod
+2 supports
T1 chaos DOT

I bought dozen remove/add attack to get attack speed (from Awakened Trader lmao) and he just left with my bow

Anyways, I managed to craft new bow and rest of gear and I got to this point

5k life
1.2k ES
Ailments immunity
60+ chaos res
1.7m TR DOT dmg according to POB (thats for 1 pod right?)

I still have few upgrades to make
1. Malevolence Watcher's
2. 28% Quality bow and enchant it - which one is best? Attack speed or AOE?
3. Reroll few pieces until T1 life and divine few of them
4. Reroll chaos dmg on belt untill T1
5. Fertile Catalysts on rings and belt
6. Fix my utility gems, I need to find place for CWDT, blink arrow, etc
7. 21/20 instead of 21/0 Toxic Rain

Othen than that, I have no idea what to upgrade. Right now I got 65ex to spend and I wanted to min-max this build as much as possible. DOT on quiver perhaps? However it might be extremly hard to hit with +1 arrow and with Chaos DOT.



On top of that I have
2x Large Clusters with Wicked Pall, Unholy Grace, Unwaveringly Evil
2x Medium Clusters with Wicked Pall, Eternal Suffering
2x Medium Clusters with Wicked Pall, Eldritch Inspiration
1x Small Cluster with Elegant Form

Here is my pob also: https://pastebin.com/Teegu6Xk

Please take a look and lmk what else I could improve.

One more question - by accident I hit another pierce on quiver while I created it with Awakener Orb. It does nothing for TR? But works with CA? Maybe I could try selling this and try from scratch, as I'm not sure if I'll be using CA at all.

edit#
I have new ammy already ;)
