Gear

for builds with Rat's nest

Gems
TS-GMP-ICD-WED-BM-LL

Anger+Wrath in Alpha's & HoI+CoH+AsMark

or

HoI+HoT+CoH+AsMark & Wrath for Rat's nest

BM-Ice Golem-BR-IncDuration-Blink arrow
Vaal Haste-IncDuration

CWDT-IC setup is now not so helpful (unless you use Daresso's defiance), can be changed to something like ?? ArcticBreath+Gmp+Blind ??, defensive curse or maybe even dropped at all.


Pre-patch for single bosses (Atziri) I've used Ice Shot+FA instead of TS+GMP, have to test what setup is better now: Frenzy, Ice shot, Burning arrow, trap setup. Ice shot was good for split phaze to freeze fire copy and not bother about flameblast.

Sidenote about my testing - I have Acuity, so I can get both instant Leech and hp regen. Without them you must take Vaal Pact, and probably replace life regen nodes into attack speed ones (to compensate loss of BR atkspd) and use Frenzy to generate charges, or live with 4% degen.

Pre-patch for single bosses (Atziri) I've used Burning Arrow - best DPS or Ice Shot (very good skill too). And i used Fire Trap setup for split phase. If i good remember my trap setup was - Burning Arrow-Trap-WED-ICD-Point Blank-Additional Accuracy.

tested Atziri (I'm super lazy, so died 3 times because of flameblast+something. Need to learn to RUN FASTER)
1. 4500 hp is enough to survive flameblast. and die in a fraction of second.
2. Spears deal about half-hp damage
3. Golems die after first stormcalls (it seems they run through ALL of them) - forget about them


Ice shot dps without charges is 73k, and is definetely not enough for comfortable kill? with 6 frenzy it's ~100k, but getting those charges at atziri is too inefficient (you'll shot more frenzy than Ice shot)

Frenzy dps is ~ 95k, and is more convinient right now.

Comparing to pre-patch, you'll need skill of dodging quite everything

can any1 give skill tree for scion?

Thats my Tree for Scion so far. i have to buy new Gear and im level 69, thats why my sustain is low. (5-Link Windripper + Tabalu Rasa). i use Tornadoshot in my 6L because you can still shotgun stronger monster (Split Arrow is good for clearing). i can't/dont use Blood Rage atm, so i have to use sometimes Frenzy to get my Frenzy Charges.
I use Herald of Ice and Warth atm, because i need some mana to respawn the golem during fights.

Yesterday put a gear set together for Lightning Coil, which turned out to be not so easy. Using Rat's Nest, Lightning Coil, Maligaro's and Windripper means that you have to get all the rest (WED, accuracy, life, fire/cold/chaos resist, crit and especially that pesky 205% of lightning resistance) on only 6 pieces of gear. Without mirrors something is bound to drop out, in my case crit.



BTW: Ignore the Hatred in the boots, it is just there for leveling.

The whole bunch of rares was about 15 ex together. However, it seems to be worth it: reducing phys damage by effectively 30% (40% becomes lightning, and 75% of that is resisted) makes the build way more tanky, especially now that Arrow Dancing puts a nerf on melee evasion. Took Phase Acrobatics as well, I don't know why it is not in the basic tree: +10% Dodge, +30% Spell Dodge for only 4 nodes.

With Surgeon's Quicksilver of Adrenaline (I can't believe that Surgeon's never got nerfed) and Vaal Haste up all the time, clear speed is really through the roof.

Am also going to experiment with Slower Projectiles instead of Faster Attacks in the Split Arrow....attack speed is already very high with Blood Rage and Vaal Haste, and 30% MORE damage seems very attractive.

is Hatred the better choice or Anger? i'm using 2 Heralds + Anger (or warth)

Hatred is useless as we are not phys.

Hi,

I was working on a build for Windripper, before I came across this one.
Since I only hhave experiance with the 1.3 Tornado Shot build, I was wondering if someone with more expericane can give me some hints.


My skilltree would be almost the same as OPs.
The main differences are:
Conduit, since I do like to play in groups and with friends. (3 extra points) This is pretty much a must for me.

Freeze + Shock for +20% cold damage and lightning damage and +5% chance to apply the respective status alignment. (4 extra points) I'm not sure if these are worth the points, but as I would be using Wrath + Herald of Thunder + Herald of Ice they seem to good to pass up for 4 points.

+30 Str and +30 Int (2 points). This can be solved with gear, but currently I don't have the items I would need.

The build is now 115 points (!) and I would like to get it down to about 108 points. Which nodes would you cut?


115 points



Would you still go for Alira's Power Charge, or is teh Frenzy charge better?

Hi :) to Karkesh btw - I took the frenzy, so I have 6 frenzy charges atm, and it seems like a huge increase in dps + I just love attack speed

Your tree btw says it's an old version

I have a question:

Okay so, I'm atm running with a 5 linked ele bow, with Split Arrow - Blood Magic - Life Leech - Faster Attacks and Pierce.

I was gonna switch to chain at some point, but.. I was so privileged yesterday that I found a Drillneck so I see no point in switching.

My question here is, if I'm running with Split Arrow and Pierce, and I ever do get a 6-linked, what do I put in the last socket?

(Running with HoI, HoT and Wrath btw)

Ps. I'm having huge issues leveling my wrath and HoT, seems like I just can't get enough int.
