FastAF ⚡'s Notes
Hey guys ! Here's something different for u guys, a fastaf challenge using only 10ex budget, and why i chose explosive arrow? Here's why !
**What you need to know about Explosive arrow :
-
It has a duration, which means your initial hit will not instant kaboom(so u can either slot in Less Duration support(lose some dps) or shoot and run to next mobs, explosions will kill them anyway~
-
The damage multiplier all comes from your area damage, so stack as many projectiles to deal the most damage on per target
-
Ignite build is strong with this skill, but mainstream AF, so let's have some boom boom action !
// Build Overview //
- Shoot n stack to make d Boom boom BIG AF
- Strong single target DPS (replace GMP to Barrage support)
.............
// Gear //
- Death's Opus(6L) - 60c
- Because easily get +2 projectiles
- U can use Arborix too, or any rare bow that has +2 proj
- Works very well with barrage support(more proj more dps)
- Carcass Jack (Don't need 6L) - 10c (with good rolls)
- Huge AOE and Area damage which is good for farm + bossing (especially Delirium, because mobs are tanky, and u can easily stack alot of hits per mob, den BOOM)
-
Devoto helm - 30c (For ez atk + movement speed)*Personal favorite for running builds
-
Seven-league step - 80c (can easily replace to rare boots, i use it because i want to run faster)
-
Tombfist (with ele weakness corrupt) - 1.5ex (Not necessary, u can use storm brand-curse on hit -ele weakness)
- Can easily replace to Oskarm for even more budget
- Amulet - 65c
- Look for Life + Attributes(that u lack) + fire damage (pretty cheap this league, as long its not phys dps lol)
- Rings - 40/50c
- Life + Resist + Elemental Damage (As long its not steel ring)
- Belt - 80c
- Look for life + resist (easy cap)
- Clusters (Between 60c - 90c)
- Stack AOE/Area damage/Elemental Damage
- Fettle (must) for small cluster to get some decent HP
- Rare jewels (budget AF)
- FULL DAMAGE (15-30c) lol *If you include Max Life Inc. on jewel, the price will go up to 2ex+
- Quiver - 50c
- Life + Elemental Damage (or) Any mod u need(resist, proj speed, etc)
- Flasks (Unique)
- Cinderswallow (1ex+) for stun avoidance (We only need the FREE 10%more damage while ignite on enemy & recover life on kill(good sustain while mapping)
- Dying Sun (8-15c)
.............
Overall, explosive arrow itself is a very strong skill, try it out and ya'll know! Mirror-tier bow is basically dealing the same DPS with Death's Opus. The only thing u can make this build min-maxed is getting more life, Watcher's eye, etc etc!
