POE2: ES+CI Crit Poisonburst Arrow Pathfinder Running Assault! (Rank1 Pathfinder SSF build)

Vine arrow circumvents proximal tangibility. Fork is very good if you don't use slivertongue. Best anoints are ancient aegis (defensive), or fast acting toxins if you max stacks fast, or pure chaos, or some crit depedning on gear. Best early budget anoint is back in action (80% stun recovery, lowbie materials). Pick the crit nodes after the poison/generic attack nodes. You can pick ES nodes last of all, I did while leveling (depends on how glass-cannony you want to be). Supercritical support might be best at high critlevels. It is unchecked in poisonburst skill list. Do not pick CI too early. Being hybrid life/es is best until you go ming's heart if you can have decent chaos res without CI. If you want to simplify the build, you can just use poison burst+vine+plague nova and curse. Feathered fletching is good if your quiver has high arrow speed. Freedom of movement and unhindered when you clear easily and can spare a few points. Good uniques to aim for: Headhunter Ming's heart, can even use x2 if resists allow Northpaw (only if low basecrit on bow) Snakebite can be good for singletarget dps if the rest of the gear is very strong. Ingenuity is good for bossdamage as a swap for headhunter. Temporalis Queen of the forest (but need to swap all es nodes and gear to evasion etc etc. Likely insanely good with the running assault variant and perfect evasion gear. You can use corpsewade if using queen if you can fit it, but aoe clear is so strong without it anyway so might not even be worth it. Silvertongue and witherhail both work as budget options and can hit the same dps as a good bow, but no additional arrows. They can get additional arrows corrupted, then they are very viable. Withering touch is so nerfed that it is almost impossible to apply wither with it, withering presence is probably the only reliable way but costs of spirit. The wicked quill too maybe, but very high int req. Things that do not work well as of 11th of april 2025: Eye of winter even with ming's heart. useless. (maybe with wicked quill). Toxic growth maxed damage link with withering touch, ming, chaos infusion, sometimes 1 stack but not worth the effort. Withering touch on main skill, nope. Withering touch on rain of arrows and max damage/chaos link, a stack here and there but not worth the trouble without frenzy charges. Dark effigy max damage link sometimes applies a stack (probably just from it's quality effect), but doubtful if even worth casting. Dark effigy AND rain of arrows reached a few stacks. Withering presence is the only reliable option. Some of the best jewel affixes Sapphire Critical strike damage/chance, % energy shield, magnitude of ailments/with crits, additional stun threshold equal to % of maximum energy shield emerald (probably best to have all sapphires though), movement speed, evasion, critical strike chance, magnitude of ailments (can have x2 different), maybe quiver if very good etc.
