I removed the budget video, because people thought its some sort of guide. It was just a showcase, that you can sacrifice damage. I still had perfect cluster jewel setup + gem setup. As many content creators showcased the build, the prices for the items are just crazy now, so sadly no longer even close to budget friendly.

(I saw a lot of people complaining that I use my cluster jewels in the video.. So the idea of the video is not that, you buy all the 1 alch uniques i used and can expect to faceroll T16.. I just wanted to show that you can sacrifce a lot in total and still do fine in t16. (E.g. i still used the enlighten 4 but mentioned in the same sentence, that if you grab a helm base with reservation efficiency, you can directly get a lower level enlighten) Regarding the large clusters.. Prismatic heart is only to cap res.. so if you are capped you can take any node you want. So please dont be so fixed on specific choices I did and see them as mandatory :) )

After my Burning Arrow Guide was butchered by the nerfs to Burning Arrow (and many people asking me every league, if its still viable), I was searching for the past few league for a build with similar comfy feeling while mapping with:

  • Being ranged
  • Having explosion chain reactions over multiple screens
  • Still having decent boss damage to do every content beside ubers

I found on poe.ninja the player TopSecretMeta playing this build. Props for him to theorycraft this beauty! I adjusted it to a slightly different way with more QOL for mapping.

You can play the build in multiple setups:

The idea of the build is the following:

  • Stack Gain #% of phys as extra on Quiver+Hatred+Herald of Ash
  • Phys Explosion from Bow is scaled so heavily that it kills all enemies around + Ignites due to Shaper of Flames (Elementalist Ascendancy)
  • The Overkill creates a burning ground by herald of ash killing enemies running into which causes another explosion (you can clear breaches with a single EK shot at the beginning)
  • The Ignite damage from EK is scales as follows:
    • You convert 100% of phys to cold from (Cold Mastery 40% + Watchers Eye + Glove craft)
    • With anomalous cold to fire support you convert 60% of cold to fire (with that your highest hit is fire to give you 25% more ignite damage from shaper of flames)
    • With hydrosphere your projectile chains once and then hits boss -> 42% of non-chaos damage as extra chaos damage from Gloomfang
    • Non-chaos as extra chaos is extremely strong if you convert your damage multiple times (phys -> cold -> fire)
  • With Mind over Matter from your body armour + Eldritch Battery you can sustain the mana costs of 84 mana of EK without problems
  • Brush with Death (on medium cluster jewel) gives you 1% life + 1% ES on kill, gives you insane sustain while mapping
  • Brutal Restraint at Witch Area gives you alot of Dex to cover the 155 dex requiremens of Gem + Bow
  • We scale Aura Effect through Medium Cluster jewels + Brutal Restraint to:
    • reach 90% phys reduction with Determination + flasks up
    • Scale your Hatred Damage buff even further
    • Increase the ES you get from Discipline which is also EHP due to MoM
