[3.21] 🌿Ultimate Claw Poison Pathfinder - Untouchable Viper - Molten Strike update by FEL
Really enjoying this build at the moment. Not having issues with any content so far.
I'm currently running the pestilent strike 6L setup and thought about giving viper strike a go for bossing when im not mapping and spotted that you recommend melee phys over unbound ailments despite the large dps different in POB. Is this due to the increased posion duration bumping up the POB damage, and why you recommend melee phys? and also, in that case would you actually recommend unbound ailments over melee phys for bossing? Thanks for the build, appreciate the work you've put into this! |

" What would you like to improve? Btw you are missing boot enchant. Belt with more resistances would be better so you can use Fertile catalysts for more life. I like leather belt because you can scale both implicit and explicit values. Didn't saw the PoB im still at work but i think your chaos res is not capped. Make sure you have upgraded your pantheons. Also you are missing Warding suffix on a flask. Curses will easily kill you in red tier without it. |

" Tnx :) Awakened Unbound Ailments are better vs Melee Phys for rly tough content like Delirum and Delirious maps because of longer poison duration. Kosis in 100% Delirious maps can be very tanky. This is for Pestilent Strike and 2 ranged skills. Viper Strike has native long duration so it doesn't need it. |

Thanks in advance //Fichi Editado por útlima vez por fichi#6711 en 29 sept. 2020 10:52:04

" if u have those just craft with fossils for chaos damage. Wasps Nest should be better due to the high on-hit dmg, since poison will calculate this as a baseline-dmg. |

I'm enjoying this build so far in Heist on Xbox where the Toxic Rain Trickster was really pissing me off.
Question, is phase run obsolete to withering step? I'm unsure why we wouldnt use phase run since it has the stealth benefit. |
|
" Withering Step is used to inflict Wither stacks. You can use Phase Run separately if you want. |

Loving the build so far, so thanks a lot for all the work you've done to put this together!
I'm currently building the uber melee version of the build, and had a question regarding the helmet. I recently bought a helmet with the '-9% to chaos resistance', and earlier enchanted it with 'Pestilent strike has 24% increased Area of Effect'. I was going to keep doing uber labs to try to get the 'Withering step inflicts 3 additional withered debuffs' enchant until I landed on the PS AoE enchant, and now I'm torn on whether I want to overwrite it! How important is the 'Withering step inflicts 3 additional withered debuffs' for when it comes to end game content? I do have a helmet with the Withering step enchant, however it doesn't have '-9% chaos res'. I've linked both helmets below and curious which you think is better :) Thanks! |

" Hm, if that Withering Step helmet is min. item lvl. 85 i would recraft it with fossils for -9% chaos res. Well neither mods are absolute must haves if the rest of your gear is like in the guide but they are nice damage boosters. Editado por útlima vez por TorsteinTheFallen#1295 en 30 sept. 2020 6:42:53
