K2Gaming's Notes

Autobomber magic find build: Occultist Death Aura + Caustic Arrow, 58% inc item quantity, 291% inc item rarity, 8M dot DPS (Vaal Caustic + Death Aura). It's amazing mapper with high clear speed, walking simulator, most of the time we do not need to press anything, only caustic arrow on bosses or hard rares. And it's not squishy, here are all defenses:

  • 3.5k life, 33k armour, 22k evasion (78% phys reduction, 75% chance to evade)
  • 88% spell suppression
  • 50% elemental dmg taken as chaos (rly good when enemies have ele pen, so it has no effect for that 50% of dmg), 80% chaos res
  • 10% less phys dmg taken on full ES (we always on full ES, all dmg bypasses it)
  • enfeeble on hit (enemies deal 9-15% less dmg and have 10% reduced accuracy)
  • immune to all elemental ailments
  • nearby enemies have 65% reduced crit chance. So, build has not bad defenses, but still don't stay in one place, better always run and dodge big hits.

Downsides:

  • bit slow if run out of charges on quicksilver flask (with Mageblood there is no such problem, it becomes much faster and more tanky, so highly recommended here, but as you see I recorded gameplay without MB, so it still works fine)
  • dps is not very high (almost no rooms for dps upgrades anymore, only if remove MF gear or sacrifice defenses), so killing bosses with wisps takes some time.

Budget: I spent 141 div total. All prices in POB notes and in "Buying/Crafting" part of the video 8:47 PRICES CAN BE HIGHER AFTER PUBLISHING VIDEO!!! Because of higher demand and low supply of drop-restricted uniques, specific mods, corrupts etc.

POB: https://pobb.in/lif0NiGo7X0P If you want to say thanks for my work (I usually spend around one week for putting everything together, testing different gear, recording, cutting, adding text etc) - become my supporter on YouTube or BuyMeACoffee (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/k2gaming). Middle and Senior supporters also will get access to Immortal Pathfinder HoT Autobomber POB (video presentation is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=040EDQlJXH0), early access to the next builds (1 day before I make video public), and continuous help (POB review, advices) via Facebook DM, Email, Discord.

For start you need 6S Death Oath (no need to 6L it, only right colors) and bow with at least 20-25% dot multi, amulet with 20%+ dot multi), that will be enough for early mapping. Then buy awakened gems, upgrade bow (at least a bit, with double dot multi and +2 bow gems, then with chaos dot dmg also and +2 support instead of bow gems).
