Hey folks.I started to craft my endgame bow and have a silly question. Due to the changes to split items, it doesnt make any sense to split the bow with the T1 DOT mod after you regal it does it? Trying to figure out a way to recoup some currency following the expensive craft process. I'm a noob at crafting so just wanted to check. Thanks.

If the item resulting from beast split has only 1 prefix and/or 1 suffix, it will be magic, so you are back to square one.

Use Imprint.

Some ways to save money are:
6 link only after you finish the bow. Beast Corrupt to +30 and use Tainted Fusing.
Use beast craft "Add mod to Hunter item" instead of an Exalt slam for the +1 gems (after Hunter Exalt).

You can also start with Hunter base and save Hunter exalt price, but Imprints don't work on influenced items, so you will have to alt-roll again if you annul the DoT multi.


p.s.
Updated the crafting guide.

hey, can someone point me to where to take my build next?

I haven't tried simulacrum 20-30 yet.

I use sinvicta on my offhand to get the massive rampage buffs during clear.

it's primarily a mapper. ;)

cannot fit in enhance for withering, made the choice for mana reservation for determination. not sure how you fit in 3 curses auras without it. i'm using enfeeble as well. should i switch?

my main concern is that I do not feel super tanky even in t16 (but i have 90% phys mitigation + 87 chaos res + divine flesh). mostly it's fine, but i sometimes get my hp depleted quite rapidly.

Loving the build so far! I'm having issues with physical mitigation though. I have ~9s duration on granite+Basalts which works fine for packs granting enough charges to keep it up 100% of the time, but big bosses I'm not as tanky as I'd like. I'm talking about 200+ stack scourge bosses or A9 Sirus beams and I realize the obvious answer is just don't get hit. The build used to have significant dodge to help with that but now with armor it doesn't feel so great.

I'm wondering if anyone has tried playing with petrified blood? I'm giving it a shot instead of aspect of the spider (AotS didn't add very much damage in PoB for me even when 3 stacked). In PoB at least it dramatically increases my EHP against physical. If I could get some phys taken as chaos that would also help a lot...

Hi all , what can I do to stop dying from the Lifetap support, Im always spamming Potion ! Help me plz :'(

Lifetap doesnt any significant damage. You probably have "take 10% hp as damage when you use a chaos skill" mastery. Its very bad, remove it because it will kill you on bosses.

I dont have that passive On, just figure it's the Death's Oath itself that kills me with the 450 chaos dmg OT

you need chaos resistance and hp/kill

Was moving over to the enlighten+empower setup and I just can't stand the mana issues. Having the unreserved mana the guide recommends (~80) feels awful to me. I'm constantly firing blanks trying to react to multiple rares or moving bosses.

Thought about switching to EB to use our ES instead but that keystone removes ES stun avoidance. Maybe if I get it on boots and all jewels it would be worth it.

Hey guys, great build and I'm very much enjoying it (especially the map clear, holy shit) but I could use some advice as to where I should progress next for my gear. At the moment i'm comfortably doing t16 maps but my boss dps is pretty lackluster.

I've got ~15ex in raw currency to play around with, what should be my first priority? Would really appreciate the advice since i've never played a build like this before.

Hello, I apologize in advance for my English, I would have liked to know what is the difference on the amount of blood sacrificed Xibaqua, what should I look for in priority? Thank you
