[3.23] Clear at lightning speeds! - Lightning Arrow Deadeye Abridged | Path of Exile

---------- 3.23 SPECIFIC ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Because of the huge amount of changes to gems and quality in 3.23, this (and all my other builds) will be in a state of flux. As always, my builds are a guideline and NOT a replacement for both your own preferences and basic common sense. ---------- NOTES ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- - BANDITS: Kill All - PANTHEON: Brine King + Whatever - Rare Gear is a guideline, not a rule. It shows the minimum recommended affixes at average rolls but feel free to mix and match the resists - Gem level is important; some gems do not require leveling - Try and replace any supports with Awakened variants when you can - Sniper's Mark and Frenzy will be triggered automatically, applying their respective effects. This is how we get consistent Frenzy and Power Charge generation. - The prime stats to look for on a Lethal Pride, Timeless Jewel, is "#% chance to Intimidate Enemies for 4 Seconds on Hit" and "#% chance to Deal Double Damage" alongside useful stats like Life. The one I have in this build also comes with a large amount of accessible Strength for easy gear/skill requirements. - The Ancestral Vision jewel is a good endgame option for ailment immunity, however you will need the Eater of Worlds "#% chance to Avoid Elemental Ailments" on boots with at least a 25% chance, making this quite prohibitive. ---------- WEAPON CRAFTING ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- To progress fully into red maps you will want to transition to crit using a bow with a high base crit chance and then swapping some perks around. Crafting the weapon is relatively straight-forward; look at the "Midgame Bow" for an example of what you want. Note: If you have more money to burn you could buy a base with a Fractured modifier of either fire, cold, or lightning damage, making it significantly easier to get all 3 damage types when you start using Essences. 1. Buy or find an ilevel 84+ Bone, Ivory, or Spine Bow. If you're in a trade league it's best to buy one with 6 links already. 2. Buy Essences of Wrath, Anger, or Hatred of at least Shrieking tier. 3. Use Essences until you get fire, cold, and lightning damage on the bow. Ideally T4 rolls or higher. 4. Ideally you'll get attack speed and crit chance, but with a free suffix you can at least craft the attack speed. In general, using bases with Fractured mods and then spamming Essences is a straight-forward and relatively quick way of getting decent items for map farming. ---------- LEVELING NOTES --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Level to 12 using your favourite method as it really isn't that long to worry too much about. Caustic Arrow is the generic go-to, then you can swap to Lightning Arrow as usual. Remember to keep your bow updated as much as possible, ideally by spamming various elemental essences you may happen across whilst leveling. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you're stuck don't be afraid to pop into one of my streams or post a comment on YouTube; I'm always willing to lend a hand.
