Goratha's Lightning Arrow Champion

CHAMPION vs DEADEYE -Champion is the better build overall, tanky, similar damage. -Deadeye will most likely have a bit more damage in practice, and clear faster. But significantly worse defenses. LEVELING -Galvanic Arrow with Pierce + Momentum (or Prismatic Burst? would require Scion Mule) will carry until Level 12 - which is when you can use Lightning Arrow -Caustic Arrow is another option with Pierce + LMP -Sniper's Mark will be avaible at level 4 next patch (make sure you grab this for bosses!) -Lightning Arrow as soon as you hit Level 12, you will want LMP + Mirage Archer (in that order, WED/Pierce later or LIGHTNING PEN) -Shrapnel Totem ASAP helps quite a bit for early single target, we can replace this later with Artillery, or a Ballista Totem (such as Storm Rain, or Galvanic) AURAS -We will want to run Haste early on and only replace it when we get Perseverance for Grace -Determination always. -Defiance Banner once we get Inspiration node from Uber Lab (it will be FREE!) -Can potentially run a 3rd 50% aura with Bubonic later on! (this will require both Charisma, Revelry + mana mastery, and probably a jewel or two) LAB ORDER -First to Strike Last to Fall is the best first option, you can utilize weapon swapping with CF to self inflict damage to proc the 20 second adrenaline (this is a bit more advanced! use at your own risk) -You can either take Inspirational from 2nd lab but you'll have to respec later, or take the useless Unstoppable Hero node. -If you took Inspirational, you'll want to respec to Unstoppable Hero and take Fortitude WEAPON SWAPPING CORRUPTING FEVER -Corrupting fever, Second Wind, Life Tap to self proc adrenaline, this is more advanced *USE AT OWN RISK IN HC ITEMS TO KEEP AN EYE OUT FOR! -Voice of the Storm has received a rework (the esh amulet) and now has Lucky Lightning Damage, this will likely be our BIS amulet - unless crucible has this mod on weapons! -Perseverance is the ideal belt for Champion, Perma Onslaught is huge, and it will let us run Grace for more Dmg/Tanky -Another belt option is Darkness Enthroned (this also received a buff/change it now goes from 50 to 100 effect from always 75%!) -Shroud of the Lightless, a key item end-game, this will let us stack abyss jewels for PEN which works very nicely with the new INVERTED res mastery. -Bubonic Trail, these boots also come from Abyss and will let us either drop all mana efficiency nodes or try to run another aura all together! (this will probably be quite expensive!) -Large Thread of Hope at Ranger hits almost every node we want and will save a ton of points! -Lethal Pride is an easy way to fix our Strength problems but its not required for any keystone. RARE ITEM KEY AFFIXES! -We want Life/Suppression/Res everywhere possible, this build will become quite unique heavy so we will need as much res as possible. -+Arrows on Bow+Quiver will be very big, as well as flat lightning damage and % elemental damage with attacks where possible (belt, rings,amulet, quiver, weapon) GHOST DANCE -You can switch tree to run Ghost Dance once you run Grace, otherwise it is not worth it. POTENTIALLY GEM SWAP ON HARD BOSSES! -Mirage or LMP (early on) swap to Barrage for bigger single target CRIT VS NON-CRIT -crit seems to be VERY gear dependent on Champion especially (hard to beat non-crit) -easier to go crit on Deadeye BALLISTA TOTEM OPTIONS - lots of options Storm Rain, Barrage, Lightning Arrow Barrage, or Galvanic Arrow // Siege Ballista // Artillery Ballista -personally leaning towards Artillery Ballista early on at least *until vegeant cascade (probably personal preference, some are better in certain situations) VENGEANT CASCADE DOUBLES DAMAGE -Projectiles (??) theoretically should hit both on the way out and the way back -this might change the totem set-up INVERTED elemental mastery is a huge DPS increase (we stack pen, and no -res)
