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?

No Freeze and Shock. Status ailments are automatically placed on crit.

For e.g. here is my gear set on Tempest that uses no int/str but has a int conversion jewel in the 1-point slot ->



I personally think Aspect of the Eagle is a waste and you should rather get jewels instead.

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.

WHY DON'T YOU HAVE WEAPON ELEMENTAL DAMAGE LINKED

YOU MONSTER

I'm sorry if I missed it. But what is currently the setup for gems for a 6L windripper and 6L chest armor? Aside from the new tree, there is no up2date info in the OP that I could find.

Also, split arrow or tornado? Split arrow has obviously more range though.

Also, you can survive reflects with the nerfed lifeleech and no spell dodge? The lifeleech from his updated video is still outdated because it shows nearly 10% lifeleech.

This is the highest possible, most op DPS build for a (legacy) windripper?

[...]

I have no idea how that happened, I used the offline skill planer.

Here is the fixed version:


So the Freeze and Shock nodes for +20% damage of each type are not worth it?


For the Jewel version I would go:

Split, Ondar's and dodge and flasks up will help you through it but you need to be on the ball.

Split Chain WED FA BA LL
Frenzy WED FA BA ICD or PCoC or LL, your choice.

Here's my adjusted to HC build:

https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAwIAm40ILu2DGY4AXtN-fXX-uq_r73rnCgqbeOv8xQ2Nh3bjn0p97g6jiiP2TZKNfTB8fyvWilFH51Qk_f_ejb_UIzBx3ahLeDpCBbXo1psmMgGyGc9653RtbLVINj2dqmyMYqwGIx9BAx4WvyaVYeJVS4w28-oqC3BSIurDOio4m7VfsMpKb56DCZykhxN3B_GzS1fA44TFPs-95luvTipM_0MxwzPawXTtBS1671oajX63tnXLvqfqYmVNvTZHfrCrxIKK8F85my031O0_VYWly2egYet6UznUdvcx-qCfIXaGzsEzLlPTb-lG

With Belly over 230% life, I'm happy with that. Note Duelist starter nodes cause I'm a duelist this time round.

- Tooltip dps around ~10k, ~20k with everything up. 74% crit, 362% multiplier, w/o power charges. But some of my gems are low level. With full buffs I run 94.55% crit.
- I'm not so sure about this frenzy for single target and charges. It hardly increases my DPS and puncture would prolly be stronger as single target (unless it got nerfed too hard).
- Also a real shame I have to add a ll-gem and full-acrobatics just to counter reflect mobs :/
- Chaos damage kills me hard.
- A shame I couldn't find a spot to place a Vaal Haste yet. I'm thinking about removing the "curse on hit gem" as well as the curse itself and put 2x vaal haste in it or 1x vaal haste + increased duration.
- My amulet and one of my rings sucks hard, the gear I quickly combined from 2 different ranged characters I had from some leagues ago.
- Considering to remove GMP. 13 arrows + chain lags the server non stop anyway. I'm better off with 9 arrows. Instead perhaps a crit multiplier gem or iiq gem.


My setup now:


Standard passive tree:
https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAwIAAF4DHgYjCC4Kmw2ND6sWvxmKGY4fQSF2JIsk_SaVKgsqODBxMHwx-jY9OdQ6QjqzQzFJD0tXS3hM_04qUUdVS1b6Whpbr1-wYeJlTWyMbWxvnm_ycFJw1XXLdvd3B3fXeOt9dX8rgwmExYbOhxOJ04wLjDaNfo2_lwabjZu1nKSdqqCftUi3trl8u-O9Nr6nwOPBM8MzwzrEospK037UI9aK1y3YYN2o5wrnVOpi7LDtg-4O73rxs_Pq_MX-uv_e?accountName=silverdash&characterName=Curves_n_Strings

Loads of things to clean up here ->

Anger is level 9, GMP should never be used, your Frenzy gem is level 7, replace Blood Rage with Vaal Haste, Puncture doesn't work because you're not physical.

A note about reflect:
I managed to run an ele reflect map in my MF setup (TS-GMP-BM-LL-IIQ-IIR) with tooltip dps 23k (with charges up) - was able to survive reflect+Thornflesh!! pack. So I guess that dps below 30k is quite reflect safe even without Arrow dancing (Ondar's).

How do nodes that give +x% Projectile damage affect the damage output?
