PoE Siege Ballista, League Starter, Bow builds

Siege Ballista Guide by Hotchelli and heavy carrying from Rhine - I use this build stricly as a bosser and to rush Ubers early in league therefore i would not recommend my setups for strictly mapping, I sack alot of health tree nodes and rolls on gear for more damage. Earlygame: Grab key uniques- Iron commander Poised Prism Fractal thoughts (35%+ CRIT multi) Briskwrap (High cold res roll pref) Hrimsorrow (max rolls on strength and cold res always cheap) ^Once got these uniques can reroll into SB at 75^ then Garukhan

Ballistas turned off, guard skill turned off. Far shot estimated at 40 projectile travel distance instead of 60 (at 60 DPS shoots up to 5.5 million) With single target gem

PROGRESSION NOTES: CAMPAIGN As of 3.17 I'm recommending you level primarily with Explosive Arrow ballistas after your first Labyrinth. Up until then, you can use the basic Holy Flame Totem + Purifying Flame setup and swap over after you unlock access to the Library in Act 3 (after you have ascended). Once you swap over to Explosive Arrow, there are some things to know: - You CANNOT HAVE any sources of Pierce on your character! Pierce will cause your arrow to go through your target rather than stick and leave a detonating fuse, which means you wi
