[3.16] Caustic Arrow/Death's Oath Occultist [Life based Chaos Autobomber]

Heya! I crafted these gloves today and was wondering if you felt like there could be a better bench craft than life. I was thinking about +1 aoe gems.

Hey, been enjoying this build a lot. I have always wanted to make a Death's Oath build. I was just wondering what you think you be the best thing to focus on to push further. Ive been saving up for a +1 gems implicit bow but I wanted to make sure there was not some other options that I should hit first.

Depending on what you want - more damage or more survivability, the possible upgrades would be:

For damage:
Some medium clusters can be improved a bit
Watcher's Eye with DoT multi
Dual DoT multi Quiver
+1 implicit bow as you mentioned
+1 Chaos, +1 Dex amulet with Chaos DoT and Malevolence reservation (probably the most expensive upgrade)

For survivability:
Quartz Flask
Catalyst rings and belt
Divine Flesh (Glorious Vanity - Xibaqua)
Dodge boots (influenced) / Atziri's Step
Aspect of Crab also a nice option for more Phys damage reduction

And something I really like - DO with "40% reduces attribute requirements" enchant (to get rid of Inertia).

Cool, thanks for the info. I will work on that stuff.

How much do you think bow attack speed really matters? The higher aps bows are much more expensive due to the other builds that benefit from it so much but we only use it for safer/quicker caustic arrow casts right?

It's only for the reaction time. Just get a white bow and test how the speed feels, so you can see for yourself if the cost is justified

I wouldn't sacrifice life for it, but it would be good if you already had life on the gloves

Just a question .... Where do you get wind dancer?

No cluster or single cluster setups. I feel when you get better gear it becomes less necessary, so I dropped it in dual cluster setup

Edit please the first post to remove it

Remove what? Wind Dancer?

I provide POB with 3 variants, and Wind Dancer is there in 2 of those.
If one wants, he could also try to integrate it in the dual cluster setup...

So what is your reasoning for removing it?

Hello, ladies and gentlemen.
i played AutoB for Years, and played dual obli/do Many time
first try with dual clear/bosse setup
and whatttttt
cost / efficiency ... outrageous
gameplay ? there is "play" in "gameplay" !
played this build like 300hrs , still min maxing

if you guys have ideas to share im here, this is my PoB:
https://pastebin.com/rjeCrPNn
there is maybe something to do, the last league i played before ultimatum was delirium, so there is a lot of things i just dont know, crafts and maybe even more.

My To Do List :

- Gloves DoT (the issue being the dual res to keep or find somehow elsewhere)
- Max Gems

My idea (lying, have no clue) :

- try to find a more opti gloves/belt stat combinaison, but i feel like its almost impossible
- forget the veridis veil defensive setup (quite sad, for me its the big point of the build compare to last obli/do i've played)

thanks everyone for all advices especially f4ward
(sry for my english, did my best)

Nice Build just pity that it is unable to kill the final boss, still dying, weak defense

what final boss? I'm doing sirus AL 9 easy. Anyways my question is how to increase the dps on my death's aura. My Death's Aura does ~200k. How do I get it to 7-800k range? I'm missing awakened gems for DA, but those alone are not enough. Is there something else I am missing?

Switch Arcane Surge for Conc Effect. It's the strongest support gem for DA.

And put lvl 1 lifetap in you movement skills setup to get the buff
