Puncture Deadeye ft. Rupture (Bleed Bow) [Path of Exile 3.24 ready]

!!!To change to Budget Configuration:!!! Change tree in 'Tree' tab Change item set in 'Items' tab Turn off Purity of Elements (since not using Aul for free aura cost) Major Pantheon use Soul of Brine King for Stun + Freeze Immunity Pros & Cons: Pros + Combines Split Arrow + Puncture for best of both worlds (Traditionally Split arrow too weak for tanky mobs, Puncture too skill-based to land consistent proper hit during hectic mapping) + Excellent clearing speed (Corpse explosion) + Snipe playstyle (kiting & offscreening) + Respectable DPS for endgame + Decently tanky + Cheap to start & gear but scalable to endgame (niche uniques) Cons - Unique dependent - Channelling (standing still) can get you killed - Playstyle needs abit of getting used to - Slightly more difficult to scale than traditional bleed bow builds (gladiator) Offensive layers: 1. Snipe + Puncture + Deadeye's projectile behavior modifier !!!Do not get any other projectile modifier like pierce from quiver!!! Traditionaly bleed bow is played with 2 6L, Split Arrow for clear and Puncture for single target. Problem with that is during juiced mapping / fast moving bosses, Split Arrow damage can be too weak, while it's hard to accurately land a fully charged Puncture without missing / hitting other mobs. This build combines both so that you only have to aim in the general direction as the build has +4 additional projectile from tree (easeing up gearing at quiver + bow) and chain (also can chain off walls) Tap button abit longer for single stage shot for clear, hold button for when meeting tougher enemies. Tap Ensnaring Arrow in between (chain is the only behaviour that do not outright kills the ensnaring effect) 2. Frenzy Charge + Affliction Charge stacking (automated via manaforged) Made possible with Ralakesh's Boots + Olesya's Delight to gain benefit of both, HUGE DPS boost 3. Crit ailment build Applies Rupture which gives more damage. Rupture is a debuff that can be applied when attacks both crit + bleed, which we apply either using main skill (Puncture) / Utility1 (Ensnaring Arrow) / Utility2 (Frenzy - manaforged automated) Defensive layers: 1. Armor + Spell Suppression + Stun Immunity + Elemental ailment immunity Armor conversion from Evasion via Iron Reflex keystone %Evasion from tree Flat evasion/armor from gear, Grace, Molten Shell, flasks. Spell Suppression from body armor & skill tree. Spell suppression is at 99% lucky at not full life, 100%+ at full life. If not using Kikazaru for life regen, recommend taking Reflexes node for consistent 100% suppression. Stun Immunity from tree & tattoos Elemental ailment immunity from Purity of Elements 2. Life Regen + Life Leech + High flasks uptime Life regen from Kikazaru, life leech from tree, flasks uptime due to tree + crit build + Watcher's eye gain charge on crit under Precision 3. Ensnaring Arrow slow + Maim Defensively slows enemy movement speed to a crawl (best effect for melee enemies) Mastery, Ascendancy, Bandits & Pantheon Important Mastery : 1. Physical mastery (10% more phys attack damage) 2. Life mastery (15% inc. life if chest no life modifier) 3. Spell Suppression mastery (chance is lucky) 4. Mana mastery (reservation efficiency) 5. Bow mastery (crit chance as travel further)<<<<<<after transition to crit 6. Armor & Eva mastery (armor + evasion rating per frnezy & endurance charge) Ascendancy : 1. Ricochet (Chain + %chance to chain off walls, for clear + accuracy of your shots) !!!Can start fully using Snipe + Puncture after linking with GMP beyond this point, else use rain of arrows + chance to bleed during leveling!!! 2. Endless Munitions (+2 Proj) 3. Rupturing (Damage) Transition to crit build beyond this point 4. Gathering Winds (Movement speed + Attack Speed) Bandits : Kill all (2 points) Pantheon : Soul of Arakaali (Reduced DOT + Chaos Res against DOT) or Brine King if no Tattoo for Stun immunity & Purity of Elements for ailment immunity Soul of Ryslatha for life flask Gem setup: Main Skill (Snipe + Puncture): Snipe + Puncture + Vicious Projectiles + Deadly Ailments + Volatility + Brutality Main skill. During levelling use Snipe + Puncture + GMP as soon as possible, otherwise use Rain of Arrows + Chance to Bleed. Take note & get used to the playstyle. !!!Tap button abit longer for single stage shot for clear, hold button for when meeting tougher enemies.!!! Ensnaring Arrow Utility Ensnaring Arrow + Inc. Crit Chance + Maim + Culling Strike Ensnaring Arrow to slow + apply enemy count as moving + maim for inc. damage taken + culling + Rupture (from Ascendancy) !!!Snare need only 1 stack for DPS increase, but 3 stacks will slow enemies down to a crawl!!! !!!Ensnaring arrow only works on the target when the projectile stops, chain will skip that effect on the mobs. However, if there're no further target to chain towards, Ensnaring Arrow will work as if the projectile stops!!! Frenzy Utility Frenzy + Manaforged Arrow + Hextouch + Vulnerability Automated Frenzy Setup (generate frenzy charges early game, affliction charges during endgame after getting Ralakesh + Olesya. Applies full strength of Vulnerability curse as needed (better than curse on hit rings) !!!Consistency made better after getting all +projectiles & chain from Deadeye!!!
