Finally hit 100 with this build. But I have to say it's underwhelming for the cost of the build (around 100 ex). Leech is very good but damage is a joke. Heavily dependent on Vinktar. When flask is down, you do almost no damage to endgame bosses. I've downed guardians so far with this build but I say this the build is struggling. You can beat the bosses with it but definitely not comfortably. Death is inevitable with this build. About Windripper, it does little to no difference as far as magic find. And because the build requires so many unique items, Stats and resists must be planned out thoroughly before invest and it's difficult to switch out neckie for Bisco to add more MF%. I'm not saying it's impossible but it takes some planning and room is tight on those stats.

All and all it's doable but personally I think with 100ex plus, I expected more dps out of it.
Hideout self-buff 30k iceshot and 39k barrage (slow proj support) is not gonna cut for that kinda budget. But thanks to the author for his effort.

I haven't invested as much, probably around 60-70 exalts, (some pieces are rather bad, still missing the +2 Barrage enchant and Acuity) and I have same hideout dps. I'm gonna assume you switched Damage on Full Life for Slow Projectiles, which is why it feels that way. I was doing the same and it did feel underwhelming, but once I switched bosses started dying very quickly.

This is my first "expensive" build so I don't know if similar budget builds are even faster, but compared to the cheaper builds I tried before this, none came even close to boss kill speed. I do agree that planning out stats and getting more mf% is hard, though.


EDIT: Forgot to ask, for the "3.3m~ dps" PoB links, why did you check Power Charges in the configuration tab? I don't see anything that gives Power Charges in tree or items. Even in your gifs it doesn't look like you have any power charges...
