Thx for the guide op.. thoughts on pandemonious?

Hey no problem! I've looked into Pandemonius in the past, but considering this build doesn't apply ailments to endgame bosses (Ele Focus), none of the mods from it would really work for single target. Also it doesn't have flat life which I think is pretty important for a glassy ranger build.

Unfortunately, we can't swap out Ele Focus for another DPS gem b/c the DPS loss is just too much. Therefore Pandemonious would at best only "cancel out" the DPS loss from Ele Focus.

Hi Enahkra

Love the build and love wanding in general. I always try to make wanders work and have played seriously since 3.0, and my first wand build was in 3.1 . I mostly play standard because i dislike playing bad budget builds in league and i feel like i cant keep up, so i just chill on standard and make currency crafting stupid shit.

That said, Im a bit stuck on the wander. It definitely doesnt feel like it does enough damage relative to the investment (dying to awakening level 4 red map elderslayers), so I wanted to ask for your input on my POB/gear, and what should be first to upgrade/change.

A lot of the gear is stock-standard stuff, with the wand and belt being self crafted, the shield purchased for a few dozen chaos, and the rest being uniques.

I was considering either a) trying to find a cheap foe bite wand/similarly strong mirror tier wand, b) getting a legacy atziri's acuity to make up for no instant leech as i simply cannot afford a legacy vinktars

if theres any other advice, id love to hear it!

Thanks for your time.

Very nice! Looks like this will be very good for bossing this league. One of my dissapointments with int stacking was not being able to shatter everything if the mods are too tanky, but I think swapping for a Brotherhood ring for maps should do the trick. Me or my playtester will probably start an int stacking build in league soon. Perhaps for now those really struggling with Sirus should switch over to your setup :P

I am currently trying out using added cold damage support on the KB link for freeze, seems to be working ok, KB is just OP clearing skill lol. I also had to take heart of thunder for the ES leech since the energy leech support was not working out well for boss fights (I did not want to use bloodrage on boss fights as CI). Swapped back in ele focus on the PS.
Do you know any other good sources of ES leech?

In addition, for Sirus, if you have corrupted blood immunity, you can go through the spinning laser beams and take very little damage, you just need to dodge his beams since he teleports maybe out of your sight range.

Thanks a lot for the previous post!
I'm currently using an attack vinktar but I believe that is actually more dps no? At least that seems to be the case when I put it in your 3.8 PoB
Also a RGB wand is mandatory right

from where do i start to read the actual build without outdated things?

Which one? Neither of the ones in this thread are outdated, posts 1-2 are for bow and 3-4 for wand.

Why they're dirty cheap on the league? Only 2ex for such powerful enchant.

Whats the best ring base to pick up for crafting? Shaped Opal or Steel?

Gear:

You're way overcapped on resists. All those resists on gear means no room for dps. I hope you like piano flasking and 100% uptime flask management because flasks will account into your overall resists which means you don't really have to focus on individual resists on gear, only %all resists matter the most since you want to utilize wise oak for bosses at its most potential. Or I find one of each resist type of at least t2 on gear sufficient enough + flasks.

Which means you can focus more on damage and life mods on your gear. And I think your rings and belt need the most work.

Have you checked out his thread catered for standard versions?
https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2236445

Since your gear is the budget version and you like crafting, he's got perfect sections on how to craft belts and rings.

Your rare abyss jewels on skill tree need to be replaced too. Get regular jewels with %Life, crit multi, attack speed with shield, proj damage, etc. And spec into more jewel slots!

illmtk brought up some good points; I will look over your POB later today and offer some comments either here or thru PM. One thing I can say is that a source of instant-leech changes everything. I would choose that over mirrored gear. Also, one reason it might feel bad is b/c of how they decided to buff endgame boss hp by around ~400%. This means even 3000+ ex mirrored builds that could "one-shot" Shaper now take several seconds. So for regular builds it feels much much worse. It might end up being the new norm tbh; this league is probably the biggest nerf to damage we've ever experienced in a patch.

Oh yeah Added Cold works too lol. I don't think there's other options unfortunately but Heart of Thunder does seem solid for DPS though so I guess it's worth it.

Good point on the spinning lasers; I guess my playtester died b/c he actually tried to avoid the them. I did notice too while watching him that he got hit once/twice by the laser and his health basically didnt even go down. In that case I think it'll be even easier.

I'll probably add a section about the Awakener to the guide, basically copying and pasting what I wrote earlier, and I'll probably make a reference to your post for those interested in int stacking if you're ok with that. I think a guy from before (Avocado?) was expressing concerns about the awakener fight + the build's tankiness, so he might prefer the int stacking route.
