" I have 8% chance to evade AND dodge while affected by grace watcher's eye. "How come only evil forces were released?" - "Because there are no good forces."
"So, then. You don't believe that there is a God." - "There was a god." "Well, then. Where is he now?" - "I killed him," said Kane. |

Yesterday i released another big update to my Blight guide. Mostly in data dump part rather than strategy like last time.
" I'm not going to comment on everything in detail because it would take me too much time (slow writer & creating essays is not a good combo). Your character - your choice of playing. Goal of my build is to make a tanky character while dishing out reasonable amounts of damage - and it's doing the job well on budget. Going all the way for TR swap which requires lots of work (and money) to be useful is not my style. You consider low single target a "problem", i don't. Everything but bosses dies almost instantly anyway. Going for maximum attack dodge is mostly for fun. It's not needed. Build already gets hit once in 50 attacks. Spell dodge and damage mitigation are significantly more important. You can MAYBE (not sure) the cap if you have full gear with #% to evade chance which can be found on Redeemer items. However this is lots of work and little gain i would say. If you have survivability problems then... maybe you should actually ditch second cluster jewel setup instead? You'll get lots of life that way. Flesh and Stone is overall bad choice, only good due perma blind which is not useful during map clear. And do you really need less damage taken from attacks when you get hit once per 50 times? Think about it. I never liked Skitterbots, would rather use Aspect of the Spider instead (Crab is still superior). I know i have stuff to update. It's simply time consuming to do one big check of multiple pages of text and check if they're all consistent. It's easier to miss couple of things than you think. " Only chase worthy implicits are +1 to all Socketed Gems and explosion. Most of these bows are probably on bad bases (low attack speed) and possibly even low ilvl which prevents from rolling certain mods. As long as +2 gems amulet exists, i don't see a reason to pay fortune for a bow like that. " There's actually 23 gems, Grace appears twice - once as normal aura (which you later don't use) and vaal aura. Some gems are optional, you don't have to take them. I actually no longer use Vaal Grace for example (even tho it's still useful) and i rarely get to use Vaal Blight. That's already 3 free gems slots. " You're forgetting something. It's not just +1 level to CA, it's also extra level to support gems other than Empower. That's extra ~2%. The actual increase in damage is ~7-8% or so. Still not worth paying a fortune when there are better mods or you could instead. (pointed them out in earlier reply) " If you don't need it, then don't use it. It's simple as that. 8% chance to evade mod on grace used to be chase item back in the day... until Malevolence became necessary due to high boss hp that is. You can still do that but i don't believe it's worth losing Aspect of the Crab for that. " Should be around 5-6% more dmg for low-mid budget. High budget with cluster jewels gets like 4-5% more damage. https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3053600 - My Guides Editado por útlima vez por DankawSL#2030 en 10 feb. 2021 12:56:49

are we able to do reflect maps? sorry im quite new to the build and i noticed it wasnt under map mods to watch out for
|
|
"Yes. Any phys damage you do is not noticeable (CA initial arrow and frenzy). Especially since "perfect" bow has next to no weapon damage on it. This also makes Atziri fairly easy with this build (the trio before her is harder than the boss itself). |
|
how about elemental reflect?
|
|
You don't deal ele dmg with this build. Any reflect is fine.

Hello everyone. Another league with this build. 5 league in a row it annihilate all content. Played on pc/xbox.(pc profile: lolofake171). Decided start this new league on xbox with some cyclone champ. It was too slow ,squishy and bad scaled with gear from floor. Yesterday i did the +2/dot multi neck with double multi quiver and got 1m dps in tooltip. Thank you once again for this build. By the far this one is my favourite! GL HF to all caustic raiders the true meta underdog

I’ve had a blast with this build. I’ve tried to follow the guild but of course harvest came out around the same time so I went a little wild. Still plenty of optimizations to do, but lmk what you think |
|
" One question, do you have any way to maim to take advantage of the belt enchant? |
|
" Nah the belt enchant I’m still trying to get wither on. I also plan on getting rid of the herald and making a chaos/projectile ring instead. |
