I am in act 10 with poison concoction and the build is stalling. I don't think I can beat the act. When can I switch to viper strike and how?

mhh its the right one and has to work, did you have any gems socketed when you pressed reforge?

No, no gems were socketed :/ I'm trying to craft/buy everything on my league start first, before I start a new character for this build

Just to give epilog to the situation.
Claw was ilvl 82 but min requirement is ilvl 83, so that's my bad that I didn't mentioned it. It's added now to the guide.

Big thanks to FEL for helping out with new claw.

Whoa! This is WAY better than the main page of this. Thank you so much!

Thanks a lot for the guide.
Is there any way to make it easier to recolor the armor? I finally got a 6L, but I'm worried about how much I'll have to spend to get so many off colors right.

The best way to socket it is to do it through the crafting bench I find. 3 socket it and do 2 green / 1 red. Then craft 4 sockets. If you don’t hit a red or a green, return it to 3 sockets. Repeat this until you get the 4th colour. Repeat the process for the 5th colour. At this point you’ll have 2 red and 3 green. Finally 6 socket it and you should hit the blue easily as it’s a blue socket base by nature. Finally 6 link it.

the problem here its allrdy 6-linked so the cheapest coloring method is not going to work.
i would say there 2 reasonable methods if its allrdy 6-linked:
- bench craft 1R1G(vorici calc says 1R1G is the cheapest method with ~200 tries avarage)
- you could beast corrupt the armor with 30quali and use tainted chromas

I've a couple of questions:

Firstly, how am I setting up path of building to compare my DPS between Pestilent/Viper to Molten Strike. If I leave it the same, MS seems to return much lower numbers but feels far superior in play. Are the numbers right, but actually it just plays better? Part of the reason for this is I've been lucky enough to find a covenant with +2 to socketed projectile gems / 6% max life implicits. I need to work out whether I sell this and go for a +1 socketed gems chest instead as the projectile implicits don't really help with PS/VS.

Secondly, I'm saving at the moment for a Forbidden Flame, but the price of it is climbing and climbing. It's kinda the last piece I need other than playing with my rare item crafts, where there's always room for improvement. I guess it's a luxury item but is there anyway to substitute this out for something else?

Build is feeling good again. Started with a Tornado shot bow build but felt incredibly squishy so switched back to this build. Don't really like the league mechanic but there's that much to do that it doesn't really matter too much.
