THIS BUILD IS BASED UPON Darkxellmc's BUILD ON THE FORUMS WHICH YOU CAN FIND HERE ->
https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2581551
I HAVE COMPILED THE IMPORTANT INFO INTO THIS SECTION BUT IF SOMETHING IS MISSING CHECK THE ORIGINAL FORUM THREAD OR THE VIDEO YOU CAME FROM
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
REMEMBER THAT THE NEW JEWELS WILL MOST LIKELY BE VERY POWERFUL SO THE POSSIBILITY OF WANTING TO TAKE THE OUTER JEWEL NODES IS
MOST LIKELY VERY HIGH. THIS BUILD HAS ACCESS TO 2 OF THEM QUITE EASILY
SUGGESTED JEWELS ARE FURTHER BELOW
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
REMEMBER TO SUPPLEMENT STATS YOU NEED WITH THE 30 STAT NODES AROUND THE TREE
TAKE SPREADING ROT IN ACT 5 AND SLOT IT WHERE INERTIA IS ON THE TREE AND THEN MOVE IT LATER
START OUT WITH BLIGHT, GET CONTAGION AT 4, ESSENCE DRAIN AT 12, SWITCH TO USING ED/CONT AT 12 AND USE BLIGHT FOR BOSSES OR RARES.
ALTERNATIVELY IF YOU DO NOT LIKE THE ED/CONT EARLY ON START WITH STORMBLAST MINE + ORB OF STORMS + FROST BOMB
AND CONTINUE WITH THOSE ABILITIES UNTIL YOU OBTAIN THE BLIGHT JEWEL
DO ALL VAAL SIDE ZONES FOR A CHANCE AT VAAL BLIGHT GEM (YOU CAN TRADE 7 VAAL GEMS + SAC FRAG FOR A VAAL ORB TO TRY FOR VAAL BLIGHT AS WELL)
FOCUS ON GETTING RESISTS AND HEALTH AND 4 LINKS FOR BOTH BLIGHT AND ESSENCE DRAIN
SLOT AOE GEMS (Increased AoE + Intensify) FOR CONTAGION TO HELP CLEAR
YOU CAN REPLACE ED/CONT WITH SOULREND + BANE IF YOU PREFER THAT PLAYSTYLE AND KEEP A VERY SIMILAR TREE, I SUGGEST ED/CONT FOR THIS LEAGUE THOUGH
- CRAFTING THE "BUDGET" BOW
1) First obtain a 6 link bow, the easiest method is through either the "The Porcupine" or "Imperial Legacy" divination cards.
2) Then, use chromatic orbs to get the following colors on your bow:
BLUE - BLUE - BLUE - RED - GREEN - GREEN
3) Then, use an orb of transmutation to make the item magic:
4) Proceed to use alteration orbs until you get the following modifier:
+1 to level of socketed gems
5) Use a regal orb to make the item rare.
6) Now press alt and check the amount of prefixes on your bow. If you do not see them, go in options>UI>advanced_item_desctiptions and check it on.
If your bow has only one prefix, go to 8. If it has two prefixes, use an orb of anulement on your bow:
7) If your bow now has only the paragon(+1gems) prefix and no other ones, continue. Otherwise, go back to step 3.
8) Craft the following modifiers:
Can have up to 3 crafted modifiers
+2 to level of socketed support gems
(36-40)% increased chaos damage over time multiplier
ED Bow Complete. This bow should carry you through most of the content.
- CRAFTING THE EXPENSIVE BOW
1) Grab an ilvl 82+ Maraketh bow with no influences.
Maraketh bows have the best implicit with 10% increased movement speed, and requires 222dex to equip.
2) (Optional) Increase the quality of your bow using perfect fossils or betrayal quality benches.
3) Increase the quality of your item on the crafting bench (+18% quality) for 4 chaos.
4)Use the crafting bench to set the socket amount to 2.
5) Use the crafting bench to force 2 blue sockets.
6) Then, use jeweller's orbs to do what's called "vorici coloring technique".
Set your socket amount to 3 using the bench. If it is red or blue, continue, otherwise reset your bow to two sockets and repeat.
When you have 3 blues or 2 blues-1red, do the same technique for the 4th socket.
Stop when you have 3 blues and one red socket.
Then, set the socket amount to 6 using the bench to get:
BLUE - BLUE - BLUE - RED - GREEN - GREEN
7) Use orbs of fusing to 6 link your item. This should take 900 on average due to the high item quality.
8) Use a scouring orb and an orb of transmutation to make your item magic.
9)Proceed to use alteration orbs until you get the following modifier:
(of liquefaction)(31-35)% increased damage over time multiplier
10) Use a regal orb to make the item rare.
Pro tip: If you care about crafting this item fast, you may use a Craicic chimeral beast to create an imprint of your item just before regaling.
This usually costs around 1ex, and allows you to go back to this step anytime you want.
This can save you the process of using alteration orbs again if you have a bad annulment roll and must retry.

11) Use annulment orbs until the only left suffix is "of liquefaction"(chaos multiplier). If you remove the chaos multiplier, go back to 8.
12) On your crafting bench, craft the following mods:
Can have 3 crafted modifiers
Cannot roll attack mods
13) Use an exalted orb on the bow. You will get +1 to level of socketed gems prefix.
14)On the crafting bench, remove crafted modifiers.
15) on the crafting bench, craft the following mods:
Can have up to 3 crafted modifiers
+2 to level of socketed support gems
(36-40)% increased chaos damage over time multiplier
16) (optional) Use a conqueror's exalted orb to add a last suffix.
I recommend redeemer for a good chance at movement speed or onslaught on kill. Full mod list available here:
