Hi all,

thank you very much for this guide!

I'm thinking about starting with cobra lash and eventually try out pestillent strike. Do you think its viable to play the expensive pestilent strike tree as Cobra lash or Venom Gyre? Cause I really like the increased block over the Cobra tree. (Respecing the anoint and so on included)

Ty in advance!

CU in Ritual

Edit: Oh and is it still a viable use of mana to slot herald of agony? Seems like a waste, without the ascendancy points. Maybe incorporate a blasphemie dispair instead and change witchfire for coralitos.

Ranged skills can be played with Transcendence variant but, you would require additional -mana cost craft.
Also damage will be significantly lower than melee skills but that could be fixed by adding Corralito's flask, because their duration is noticeably shorter, therefore lower max dps. Also Hybrid Life flask to put Warding on it...
It's little complex but it can be done.

Herald of Agony is there for 10% more damage and bonuses from the Circle of Nostalgia ring.

So, its better to use Cobra lash/venom gyre to farm money to swap to melee Viper/Pestilence? or use it with Ancestral Call until i can get the annoint?
i'm worried about using viper/pestilence for clear etc during start cause we dont have easy acess to tribal fury (golden oil are rare for day 1-3 normally).

i wont quote cuz length now but i said "some builds" not this one torstein ;)

I'm not too familiar with the balances and nerfs, is this Pathfinder poison build still good? Or have they destroyed it for the Ritual league?

Just read the last few pages.
Short answer - build is fine, Pathfinder wasn't changed in any substantial way.

In general Cobra Lash is fastest on clear, but you will be just fine with Ancestral Call on Pestilent or even Ancestral + Splash on Viper S because they have more damage. Considering you have at least Tabula or random 6L.

It's up to you.

Might have already been asked but for 3.13 will pathfinder still be the ascendancy we want to play?

No, unfortunately we want to start Necromancer now.

Would you mind explaining the switch to Necro? And does it affect skill selection, since previously the build was getting poison proliferation from Nature's Reprisal?

I've never played a poison build before but was thinking of trying this in 3.13.

I was trolling. The build is fine. And I was trolling because of a simple reason: Around 30 Minutes after the patch nodes were out Thorstein and me answered a bunch of questions, while he clearly declared that the build is fine.

Just mindlessly going to the last page of the thread and asking - without putting THE SLIGHTEST effort in to finding information on your own- is nothing that I want to support. It is not that difficult to think about the date when the patch nodes come out and just start reading from there, I am not expecting any1 reading all 300 Pages but it would be a sign of respect to me and moreover Thorstein, who put so much work into this, to at least try to find some information before stumbling onto the last page and asking stuff that has been answered literally 1 hour earlier.

No one is expected to be all-knowing. But the lack of effort is what gets my blood boiling.

Best example:

Hope everyone seeing this takes a second to think about that. Thanks in advance.

I was wondering , why no plague bearer ? Pretty much all poison builds I've seen seem to use it and considering that you are in melee range already , with 2 of the skills, it seems to fit in really nicely ? (I'm fairly noob-ish so sorry if its obvious)
