[3.2] That Doomfletch Life | 3.1 VIDEO GUIDE UP! Tree/PoB | All Content | Reviews

I'm currently rocking a variant of this build on XBox. It's pretty amazing. I've used it as my league starter, so didn't have any currency to front. Just upgrading as I go.

Currently working with a single 5L Doomfletch's Prism for Barrage. No Kaom's yet (16 ex in stupid console economy. Almost there though..) No good enchants. No +arrow corruptions. No sick flasks. Heck, don't even have a Lioneye's jewel yet because they're 3 ex on console. My AoE skill is a 4L.

Just prioritize flat phys everywhere. Using Abyssus + Chance to Bleed, T1 phys ammy, crappy resist rings with T1 phys. Don't even have steel rings.

I'm still pushing my Atlas, so can't comment on the really high end, but up to T12 everything just melts in maps with pretty rough rolls. Plenty of room for improvement too, given the gear I'm currently rocking.

Some pointers for console:
- Use Lightning Arrow instead of TS for clear. The auto-targetting shoots mobs in front rather than in the back, which really screws with the efficacy of TS. LA just pierces through and blows up packs.
- Due to shitty flask controls, I went Raider instead of Pathfinder. Can't reliably use more than 2-3 flasks while in combat anyway. Onslaught helps with clearspeed, stacking Frenzy charges adds up to 20-28% More damage.

In short, thanks Ahfack. Nice build :)

Hi, what is my best upgrade path at this point?
enchant +2 barrage very expensive.....

Your gear is pretty much as good as it will get.

Craft wed on boots, then your only upgrades is barrage proj\tornado shotproj enchants,and mirror worthy rings with accuracy T1 flat Phys T1 wed T1 multi


On a side note! I have been experimenting. I will soon be using kaom's roots boots with 10% element penetration enchant when bossing (guardians\shaper) and life evasion boots with80% avoid stun enchant when mapping.

I noticed that sometimes while mapping \ bossing stun kills you, but I don't want to lose 10% penetration on guardians\shaper

Hey! Amazing guide and loving it so far! Just wondering where I should go from here, I know I need a barrage enchant, and another steel ring. Any input is greatly appreciatied! Also is dieing to a one shot against the higher end bosses a thing or am I doing something wrong? I have around 6k life but guardians one shot me.

loving the build!

At what point is crit gems > chance to bleed? I have only like 20.9% cc atm unbuffed. gow are you reaching 60% cc? is that unbuffed? ty

Will someone take a look at my character and tell me what I should focus on next? I have about 2ex right now (just bought steel rings and a new amulet) and I am unsure what I should focus on next. My character seems to do fine in high tier maps but I die to lots of bosses.

As stated on thread, you should use chance to bleed in place of crit strikes since you're missing lots of flat phys. Yes, you have steel rings but they don't have the supplmental flat phys prefix roll that's very important. You don't have your amulet equipped so I can't look at it.

Craft 22wed to your belt

IAS on gloves would make them much better

quality your diamond flask

at least take off armour% roll off your brimstone nail and put flat phys on there

As mentioned, flat phys on everything you can.

5l for clearing is fine, but need 6l for barrage ASAP

balance res if you can, a lot of people write it off but it's both offensive and defensive, not just for dmg. Helps with every elemental damage source including reflect.

Thanks! I got 21% WED on my belt and 5-8 physical dmg to my ring. I also quality'd my diamond flask. What do I do to craft IAS on those gloves? Aren't they maxxed out? I am working on my 6L but I am about6 ex away from that. Those things aren't cheap!

Thanks so much for your suggestions.

Hi there, I'm not the OP but heres my 2cents,
you're not doing something wrong, guardians can OS you even with 6K HP.

You cannot facetank all shots:
beware of minautor slams
hydra always try to stay behind
Phoenix be far when he explodes
chimera be fast to find him when he hides in smoke. His adds between phase hits hard too

Each guardians moves are pretty predictable, try to watch and learn.

You have pretty good stuff:
-quality your diamond + quicksilver
-try to have +x% mouvment speed on quicksilver
-second +1 drillneck could be nice too

try to enchant your boots with +10pen for hard bosses

Have fun

After long time of thinking which bow build to end the league, & have 7 bow builds theorycrafted in PoB, I decided to finally commited to this build, even though I am not that rich. Bt thats the fun, farming gears with the build you use & grow, instead of simply buying every pieces by farming with end game char.

Been pondering between this & the iceshot death Opus/Chin sol build. after refreshing PoE.tarde for a while,& I found a quite near perfect stats Doomfletch at amazing price of 6ex, & I just can't refuse the deal.

I will make a raider version though, unless someone can tell me how to hit constantly hit 5 flasks (I am using piano sweep method) without losing my fingerprint or keyboard.



Turned out the person wanted to quit (either the league or game), & offer to sell me more stuff. One of my main finaical concern is high price of steel rings, but he offered to sell me 3 decent steel ring for 1ex+20 chaos, so I said hell yeah.




The only sole steel ring I had was one with crappy stats but perfect affix which I bought for 14c hoping to crafted into something good. After dropping a significant amount of currency & still got junk, I decided to stop.
But after getting the 3 steel ring at a steal (I think), I decided to spend a small amount of currency to further craft, & if failed, sold it off for like 14c or so.
After 20c worth of currency, I managed to get something half decent.


Now I need to shop for rest of the gears I lack, like the 2nd doomfetsh. But I am taking it slow, I am only level 43.
I only have 4ex left, so I need to be more selective in next gears. I probably get a 5link Doom, for tornado shot until I sold off my 6-link Death Opus.

Anway, one of the man reason I decide to go with this build is communication. Its no fun as a relative beginner (first real league) on a build that you hardly get feedback. This thread being very helpful & active, especially Builder Ahfack seal the deal for me.

That's why I like tornado shot because it's strong enough you don't have to swap to barrage until the very end. Also just change any unused hotkey to your main attacks. That will help you visually discern whether you're on barrage or not when changes colours. You'll get used to it

I gonna better at it with practice. Actually, I remember doing this weapon swapping gamepaly before, in Diablo 2, like on my hybrid guided arrow/javalin build. I will switch to guide arrow for single targte & lightning fury for AOE.

To further differenate the weapon swap, I went out & bought the Hydra bow for 1c, just for skin transfe, as it has the most in your face look.


Also, I found the original build that inspired the tempest binding build.It was created by nope other than the one & only Neversink himself

I will stick to alternating between 2 bow for max potential though.

Anyone saying "You need mirrored gear to make this build work" is, in every sense, incorrect.

Nice strawman.

No, no one is saying that - they're saying the numbers you put up are pretty bullshit because you skip out on simple calcs and stuff. Anyone can make a build that works on a budget, anyone can make a build that works on mirror tier gear. It takes a real bullshitter to make a mirror tier build then claim it does more damage than it should. Same with this. Same with Bleed Cyclone.

To clarify, just because you may need it:

The bullshit claim is NOT: "This build doesn't work without X amount of gear"

The bullshit claim IS: "This build is inflating numbers/uses duplicitous means to try to impress players

You can't dodge the first by claiming they're saying the second. Nice try guy.

Anyways, see you on Bullshit Builds :_)
