POE 3.23 Affliction | Corrupting Cry | Day 1 Recap

________________________ Foreword ________________________ Howdy, my name is Vashthalas and welcome to my Leveling plans for 3.23 Affliction I saw one of the wildwood Ascendancies lets you Warcry additional items from dead monsters This reminded me of Diablo 2 and just knew I had to try it! I plan on Leveling as a Bleed Duelist until I can make the swap to Corrupting Cry or General's Cry This is a WIP experimental League Starter, I recommend having a backup build in case this one sucks Split Arrow will be our main skill before swapping, while we use Puncture for single target I have used some of the information from this video by Cyclopsided, please go give them some support! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHjnezgpYf0&t=213s ________________________ Leveling Plan ________________________ 1) Make a Ranger & kill Hillock 2) Talk to Tarkleigh, choose Split Arrow 3) Browse the items Tarkleigh is selling for 3-Links with these socket colors: A) G - R - B = Vendor Recipe for a Chromatic Orb B) Puncture - Maim support - Chance to Bleed support C) Split Arrow - Chance to Bleed support - Mirage Archer support 4) Sell anything you don't need on the ranger, deposit any currency or scrolls to your shared stash along with: A) Your ranger's Crude Bow B) Split Arrow C) Small Mana Flask 5) Delete your ranger, make your duelist & after killing Hillock: A) Equip everything we stored in our stash B) Sell anything you don't need C) Check Tarkleigh's inventory of items one more time, especially if you still need something to put Split Arrow & Chance to Bleed in 6) Pick up these gems as quest rewards or from the vendor when you can: A) Mercy Mission (Act 1) = Quicksilver Flask / Mirage Archer support B) Breaking some Eggs (Act 1) = Puncture / Dash / War Banner / Sniper's Mark(?)
