Three Eight's Notes

With Steelworm: ~520m dps Without Steelworm: ~170m dps Without Steelworm + Tinctures disabled: ~50m dps ( tinctures have almost 100% uptime but it's quite painful to constantly monitor them)

Budget: ~200d mid-league
Overall, I liked this build as a boss killer. However, clear is quite weak despite the high speed, to improve it you could try Sione's Ambition + Awakened Ancestral Call, but there is still a slight delay before projectiles hit the ground + return.
Survivability: mostly comes from avoidance, max hit is very low, but I die quite rarely even on rippy t17, Barskin is OP in maps.
