Goratha's Notes

SABOW NOTES (this build is a work in progress, still messing with things but people wanted a POB) MAIN IDEA -Use Scourge Arrow to trigger multiple Manaforged set-ups -Craft -mana to NON-CHANNELED skills on rings and/or amulet -Scourge Arrow is a channeled skill, so mana cost is still high -All other bow skills used are reduced to low mana cost -This results in Scourge Arrow proccing the Manaforged set-ups on CD and scaling CDR will greatly increase the amount of procs we can get! (hence SABOW) WHY SABOTEUR? -CDR is big! With Manaforged the more CDR the better, there is no "breakpoints" like with Cast on Crit -Blind aura, and blind DR is very good defensively -Explosive Expert is a solid DPS node LIGHTNING COIL -Lightning Coil is a good way to deal with physical damage without having to go all-in on armor. -Running Purity of Elements over Determination, this fixes resists easily and also makes us ailment immune. WHAT'S NEXT? -Glorious Vanity + Ghost Dance and maybe an ES on hit jewel -Additional arrows, and Crucible "Scourge Arrow" tree. -The build is still a work in progress, it already seems quite strong without any changes but there is some things I am considering trying out, especially with triggerbots/demolitionist expert -Eventually can think about dropping Purity of Elements with good enough gear. And running either Determination or a damage aura. TRIGGERBOTS VS BOMB SPECIALIST VS DEMOLITIONIST EXPERT -The last ascendency node is a bit weird -Bomb Specialist doesn't do THAT much but seems to be the best option without adding anything to the build TRIGGERBOTS -Triggerbots don't work with triggered "attacks" but there is some interesting mechanics that could be used in this build to make use of them. -Triggerbots can be potentially interesting with "Fire Burst" essence, "Prismatic Burst" gem, and "Choir of the Storm" amulet, or even "Lightpoacher" DEMOLITIONIST EXPERT -There is an option for much, much higher single target if we add in mines to the build -Mines would be used for the debuff portion and buffed from "Demolitionist Expert" this can result in MUCH higher POB dps but might be clunky in practice, something to test still OTHER ASCENDANCY OPTIONS (boring) -Champion would probably work with this as well (to the surprise of no one) - super tanky -Deadeye also would be an option, probably more damage, but "dead"eye is a bit squishy
