PoE Rain of Arrows, Bow builds

I made this build, it's interesting and sort of works by leveraging big health pool via dissolution of the flesh to scale Bloodthirst support for lots of flat added phys converted using Doomfletch. Rite of Ruin downside is completely offset by endless Eternal Youth like the rage vortex build featured here last week (an inspiration). It mostly works, it's insanely fast and blows up packs, but having trouble scaling brittle and scorched on bosses to get great damage numbers. &x200B; Obviously Rain of Arrows does not scale well except on large bosses that get hit a lot, but you can get a

There has been some controversy about my Lightning Arrow build and /u/officialvehx have provided a very useful TR tree. I have merged it with my LA build and tweaked it to be have a lot more defense. My concerns with TR was the "overlapping pods" configuration in PoB which I am still unsure about but even if it turns out to be just one, the damage is not that bad, it's 41K DPS vs ~60-65K DPS from the LA build and if it turns out to be really three then

(sorry, that's already 3.19 trees I recreated the main tree in 3.18 1. Why this post? Because most guides do not focus on the peculiar problems arising from doing this just a few hours into the league. 1. Why not Toxic Rain? I tried but we are doing roughly three overlapping TR pods worth of damage and it's hard to guarantee there'll be that much or more for TR. Also, our weapon is very cheap -- see below -- while a 5L Quill Rain is anything but. 1. Why Lightning Arrow? We are Raider for speed and to get a lot of life we need every li

After reading the amazing post by u/metalonorfeed on tanky deadeye and seeing the changes for Artillery Ballista, I started to put this RoA/Artillery Ballista build together. It seems decent on paper, and should be buffed next league with brand new defensive layers that I'm quite excited about. If I can get it to a satisfying level, it could even be a good option for leaguestart. Let's start with the POB: The build benefits from th

Current character (level 74 Champ) my idea for where the tree might go First off, this character started out intended to be a Champion impale based shrapnel ballista build. However I gave up on that around level 65 because that shit was terrible feeling. I probably did it wrong, whatever. Now the character is full (90% for now) fire conversion with the mastery and Avatar of fire, and I plan on getting the rest from EoW mod. My idea is to strength stack and use the Rep

power charges + frenzy charges = 10 seconds up time - 6 seconds down time rotations. dying sun flask is replaced via a remove bleed life flask - only there as dmg refrence for the volley fire jewel on the tree not registering. despair on the chest due to causitc arrow + quiver once you swap weapons on pob wont register the despair still being active so to get a damage reading you need it on the chest. if you enable the temp chains the damage will go negative due to it not being able to register 2 curses at the same time since it reads the curse limit as one due to the despair on the chest a

Big Disclaimer: I am not trying to create an actual end game character. I already have something planned for serious Shaper/Uber Elder clearing. Also forgive me if I make any glaring mistakes in general for Bow builds, it's not really my strong point when making builds. &x200B; Hey all, I noticed the new Unique Bow coming with Betrayal called The Crimson Storm. Got me thinking of a fun way to use it since I barely play Bow characters and wanted to play one. Didn't want to take the typical ele conversion method of using Bow skills, so I decided to go pure Physical. The theory i
