[3.0] NeverSink's ♣ INDEPTH Tornado&Archer Guide ♣ Beginner friendly ♣ Rapid clear ♣ All bosses

I'm really confused about why this build takes Vaal Pact. We have almost no life leech from the tree (.4% only) and we're converting half of our phys damage to lighting with phys to lightning gems. I notice barely any life being given back to me as I attack. Am I missing something?

hi guys.. its me again ^_^'

ok, here a little video about a run in tier:6

i just wanted to show you the difference between what i expected from this build and the reality.

im not complaining.. i know im not good at this game.. but i try hard x)

Point blank question
POB doent show because it doesnt have the button to click if your near the mobs or not and yes if your not tanky enough to get close its very risky. Simple trick use a range totem for that -30% damage but if u spawn the totem right in the middle of the mob +50% so after reduction from totem u still gain 20% and your not risking your ranger just the totem. Your choice. I did that before with blast rain before 3.0 powerfull with skirmish and safe but not as fast clear asself casting your skill.

About vaal pack leech

About the T6 video i havnt watch as im busy but with this build I alch all map T6-T10 no issue i dont care what roll i goes just carefull a little in reflect rolls. havnt tried alching T11 above but i will when i get map drops. Passive tree does support by roght gearing and playstyle. Passive alone wont success my point of view.

can you show your gear ? at least i can try to do something similar..

I don't know, I did a rare T11 with this build, except I am doing Ice Shot + Barrage, which is more defensive, but I own only a 5L for barrage and a 4L for Ice Shot. Was using Asphyxias at the T11, but now swapped for Singal Fire (the damage boost is insane!) and must say that the map was pretty much doable, died once for the boss because was dumb and couldn't dodge. Was level 78, 3.5K life and roughly 20K dps for Ice Shot and 15k for Barrage.

The only map I wasn't able to do was Atziri, had a rough time vs the Queen, but was lacking my Signal Fire, now I think it is doable as well.

These are roughly the items I had when doing the T11 and Atziri (except for the Signal Fire, as said before).

One thing I forgot to note is: Frost Wall saves lives. A LOT OF TIMES!

It may screw you sometimes, but if you're aware you can Blink Arrow away from it and, then, you can kite monster using the wall. I don't have the exact numbers, but I certainly die less since I started running CWTD - IC - Frost Wall.

^^sure men later when i reach home. In mobile i cant post my gears nor open my chracter sheet.

^^about frost wall its 50/50 thing. If you want a full vip buddy get a 20/20 decoy totem learn how to use it and youll be untouchable.

As much as I enjoy archers in PoE, I have to say it's complete crap for Uber Lab :-/
Izaro pretty much one shots you with next to any skill he uses (4k HP here).

You guys have some trick to deal with this? Increase HP pool significantly (no, cannot buy Kaom)?
I do have acro/phase acro and evasion at about 50% value but still, he eventually does hit me once during the 3rd encounter when the room layout is unfortunate. Obviously, I avoid whatever I can avoid, but sometimes you just fail/misslick/whatever once and boom... there goes your 10% and last 10-15 minutes.

The thing about Izaro is that his moves will become quite predictable once we have experience fighting him many many times over. I find that movement speed is very important (150% and above, the more the better) during the fight so that we can do the hit-and-run tactic. To make the fight less fatal, I will kill off all the font's, gargoyles, lieutenant etc when they pop-up, even though it will earn me less treasure keys. (better to be safe than sorry, rite?)

Btw, my league ranger has only 2.5k life, but certain bosses such as Izaro, Hydra and Phoenix is still doable if we are careful and not overly ambitious.

This is a great suggestion for leveling! Something like barrage-PB-PTL-WED or so can help a lot with single target there.

Other than that - Point Blank (keystone) is very good for self-cast once you got some level of gear going. Something like 5k+ Life and some dmg would be helpful because you are going to take some hits in the process.
