Toxic Rain Ballista Endgame Guide & Upgrades (Pathfinder) | Path of Exile, 3.21 Crucible

!!!I WILL MAKE IMPROVEMENTS AND FIX SMALL MISTAKES UP TO RELEASE, SO SEE THIS AS A PLACEHOLDER POB AND DEFINITELY CHECK BACK LATER!!! FULL NOTES COMING SOON!!! (Leveling, Budget uniques, Tips & Tricks) Will also link the Maxroll.gg article here once it's out :) !!IMPORTANT TIPS!! - Bandit: Kill All - Until you get Wilma's Requital, you're basically a Hybrid Attack/Ballista build. No reason to miss out on damage! - I left open Suffixes on items intentionally, cap your resistances as needed! - Chaos Resistances will be more important than ever, so try and snag some! - Use Lifetap until Endgame so you don't have to engage with Mana Cost. We have so much Regen you'll hardly feel it. - Until you get your Small Cluster Jewel with Mana Reservation Efficiency, cut Haste! - Make sure you have your Flask Setup ready once you add Petrified Blood, otherwise you might degen to your death! Leveling Section ------------------------------------------------------------ Act 1: Level with Caustic Arrow + Shrapnel Ballista. Puncture can help for Bosses like Brutus as well. Caustic Arrow + Pierce Support + Mirage Archer Shrapnel Ballista + Pierce + Added Cold Damage Puncture At Level 8, get 2x Faster Attacks At Level 10, get Withering Step and Blink Arrow. Put Withering Step on your left mouse-button (instant skill). At Level 12, change your main skills into: Toxic Rain + Mirage Archer + Faster Attacks Toxic Rain + Ballista Support + Faster Attacks ---------------- Act 2: At Level 16, get Summon Skitterbots and reserve it. At Level 16, grab Frenzy and link it with Lesser Multiple Projectiles if possible. ------------------------------------ Act 3: At Level 24, grab Despair and Purity of Elements. Unequip Summon Skitterbots and equip + reserve Purity of Elements. At Level 30-ish, do the Fixture of Fate side-quest and get 2x Efficacy + Malevolence. If you feel too squishy, keep using Purity of Elements, but Malevolence would be great for damage. 4-Link: Toxic Rain + Mirage Archer + Void Manipulation + Efficacy Toxic Rain + Ballista Support + Faster Attacks + Efficacy ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Good Unique Leveling Items: 1) Karui Ward 2) Goldrim 3) Skirmish 4) Bloodgrip 5) Quill Rain (might be expensive)
