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

I've chosen this build as my league starter and I must say it was a good choice. Leveling was very smooth. Mapping is very enjoyable as well, but I'm still in white maps due to limited time.

@Hasunic have you crafted your current bow? If yes, how? Looks like alt/regal craft.

btw your gear looks massive...

Yeah. I crafted it with alt regal spam for the two suffixes.

Yeah. Money and rng has been good to me this league. I made a bunch of currency farming bosses while others couldn't and I got insanely lucky with my first temple corrupt.

I am very glad that the build did not dissapoint you :)

I'm a little further in gearing now :) crafted some nice gloves and Ok'ish quiver. Got some luck on my side, i bought a lvl 2 empower and used a vaal orb and turned lvl 3:) So now i'm on TR/mirage archer/void manip/vicious project/ dmg on full life/empower 3.
I bought ilvl 85 hunter amuletbase for 40c and trying to roll for +1 chaos gems. and my gems are 19.5 so allmost at lvl 20.
5.3k life / 1.3k ES. When i hover over toxic rain with my mouse it says 31k chaos damage per second / duration is 2seconds

Hello, have you tried Simulacrum waves? If yes how many did you manage? I watched your Phoenix and it was realy long figt, does it mean we are low damage for it? Thanks.

have you tried out any of the cluster jewels yet? i know you prefer a tankier setup so im assuming its not worth the ES loss from trading out thread of hope

I haven't played Caustic Arrow for years. I have never played Toxic Rain.

I'm pleased I started with this for the league.

I don't think I'll spend much more currency on this and will now start saving for the next build...... maybe Vaal Storm Call or something XD

It just means that 100% delirious Phoenix is way to overtuned.

I just did 20/20 waves in Simulacrum and it was my first run in there. I was going in totaly blind.

I'll upload a video soon.

No not yet, but maybe we could path to the outer jewel socket at CI for 4 points, but I want to find some realy good jewels, so I can combine large medium small with good damage/life and utility in the form of flask sustain.

I see u kept in efficacy instead of damage on full life when u had empower? It's more relient damage i guess?

Very nice gear indeed! Glad you had fun :D

I'll also stop investing in the build now and start saving for something else :D

Yeah. I don't like dofl that much and I'm also switching out DOFL in my chest when I can for empower. But considering I use CA for clear, I'm very often full life while clearing... In boss fights, not so much always.

ALso Efficacy buffs TR in other ways than just pure damage. It doesnt buff CA.
