Path of Chigurh's Notes

In this video, I give you a map showcase comparison between the new Corrupting Cry Support and the Tried-and-True Caustic Arrow in terms of smoothness of clear and maps per hour. While I am using some Magic Find gear to enhance the currency per hour, Magic Find is not required.

The reason these 2 skills are very strong for magic find is because they only need 1-2 items for their damage to be strong enough to smoothly clear T16 maps. Corrupting Cry just needs a decent staff and a Forbidden Shako with Lvl 30+ Corrupting Cry. Caustic Arrow just need a decent bow and quiver.

Along with only needing a few items that provide 80%+ of their damage, both of these skills have good base AOE coverage with Caustic Arrow being amazing and Corrupting Cry being good, but also spammable while moving.

The Atlas Tree I am using is used to self farm Delirium Orbs (and Random Currency) so that I can run 100% Delirium Maps, which I showcase in my Mirror Farming video. The same Atlas Tree is used in both farms to add variety to my gameplay. https://youtu.be/iqjeZLMp9cs

The reason I am running "low" or no rarity gear is because unique items don't have a lot of value late in league outside of Tier 0 and diminishing returns past 60 quant and 200 Rarity are pretty high, thus more maps per hour is better than magic find stats at a certain point.
