Here is a video of this build doing Baran in early maps - SSF with no Coralito's, no Darkscorn, no cluster jewels, all scuffed gear, doing pretty well. I had one brain dead play with Baran where I almost died, I also used basically no flasks, which is terrible as PF, but I was just nervous :)

One thing that's different from the guide is having arcanist brand - despair linked instead of self-casting the curse or using despair-on-hit ring (will use one when I find/make one). Also slightly different perhaps is using Enduring Cry - Second Wind - Dash - Withering Step

I like the back-to-back enduring cry flexibility since without endurance charges it can get scary. Also love the speed + extra easy withered stacks from withering step, although it does interfere with dash sometimes, but i haven't had an issue yet with it. Probably not ideal to not have double dash for bosses like Sirus/Elder though!

My PoB here (about 350k mob DPS/200k shaper dps currently, 4k life) : https://pastebin.com/8j344C0W

edit: only 3.8k HP in video but I rearranged a couple points after lvl 80, got 4025 now :)

edit 2: I forgot another thing I added recently were the haemophilia gloves for bleedsplosions (which you may or may not notice on the video, hard to see). The targets are almost always bleeding because of how often they are hit by blast rain (+25% chance to bleed on hit from haemophilia), so the explosion chance is high and it helps with clear a bit.

edit 3: Haemophilia are a good choice, better poison DPS than embalmer and gives you strength (much needed) at the expense of HP. BUT, I was wrong, blast rain doesn't have any chance to bleed since it is converted 100% to fire (innate part of the skill), so the only bleed chance comes from the scourge arrow/thorns. But that's okay!

Hello, so ive gotten my gear to a decent point with +1 arrow quiver and a couple cluster jewels. I Seem to be able to do red maps without much problem, but the single target still seems really weak when it comes to map bosses, conquerors. Just wondering what I should look to upgrade next. Maby fenusmus gloves or helm enchant?

Hey warrofua,

Look like you got mana-blocked so that you couldn't reach your potential. I'd highly recommend an Enduring mana flask or a rare chest with -mana cost. You will see big difference.

Okay pretty nice leveling gear so good job with that. Here are the things i see:

1. Replace Pierce with Added Chaos and Vicious Proj with Deadly Ailments (or Vile Toxins) in Scourge Arrow setup
2. Transition to Blast Rain - Withering Touch - Increased Duration - Greater Multiple Projectiles - Mirage Archer for your 2nd 5 link, it will help immensely with wither generation and DPS
3. Use Enduring Cry gem (ideally linked to Second Wind Support along with Dash) to get endurance charges and take advantage of the nutty life regen (could take this out once you get cluster jewel for endurance charges)
4. If you want to lose some tankiness (but not that much), drop arctic armor and use Skitterbots for the 16% increased damage from shock that they provide (chill is a nice side effect too)
5. Spec into Wind dancer/Phase Acro
6. Consider self-casting Despair curse on tougher enemies/bosses, or link despair to arcanist brand and let that auto curse things for you.

I was able to craft a rare bow and single target is looking decent now

Just a question: why is is better to run despair ring instead of witchbrew? Damage over time with PF flask buffs seems to be really powerful.

Also, even with Enlighten, I am not able to use Aspect of Spider + Grace + Herald. Should I just not use Grace before I am able to get a -15 chest?

Ty!
