The BEST New League Starter! Cobra Lash Deadeye [PoE 3.18]

Tips For the Budget Version: -- Get evasion/armour on as many bases as possible. Get Life/Spell Suppression/Resists/Stats as needed -- The most important part of the build is the medium cluster jewels. The large clusters are good, but mostly are there to enable the mediums (Follow-Through Notable). -- Make sure to get to 100% hit chance. You might need a tiny bit of accuracy somewhere -- Rage on hit eldritch implicit on gloves is incredibly strong. Use it to gain rage, then Berserk on bosses. -- Dont Take Mana Reservation Efficiency wheel until you swap to Determination/Grace _________________________________________________________ ELDRITCH IMPLICITS: Boots: Exarch - Action Speed Eater - Elusive Effect Gloves: Exach - Rage on hit Eater - Effect of marks/Spell Suppresion (if needed) Helmet: Exarch: Reduced mana cost of attacks Eater: Mana Reservation efficiency/Phys taken as/Enemies have reduced life regen/Attack Damage Body Armour: (if not using tabula) Exarch: Crit multi for attack damage Eater: Grace effect/ % Evasion/determination effect/ %armour _________________________________________________________ ASCENDANCY ORDER: Gathering Winds - Ricochet - Endless Munitions - Focal Point _________________________________________________________ --GEM BUYING GUIDE-- ACT ONE: Grab Caustic Arrow from reward for Enemy at the Gate, and buy Cobra Lash from Nessa.
