I have a legacy reach of the counsel bow and a headhunter belt somewhere in stash. Can I utilize these in this build - or is this not advised?

Very interesting to make a comparison between the current ES version of Signalshot (at least with my current gear) and the life-based version with its hypothetical idealized jewels.

Looking at PoB, the life version can squeeze out around 1 million more shaper dps (taking into consideration Damage on Full Life instead of Slower Projectiles) and boasts close to 2K more ehp although that's with a legacy kaoms forcing a weapon swap approach. The life version is currently superior at its peak, although it still remains to be seen what will happen to ES versus life in future patches - the pendulum might easily swing back in ES's favor. Time will tell. Those perhaps looking to invest in mirror gear in standard might elect to hold off and see just what GGG has in store for life and ES in the near future.

I've been playing the ES version in 3.0 and I must say the instant leech hasn't been all that important. What's annoying however is that Discipline is bugged forcing recovery of ES through Ghost Reaver instead of relying on natural ES regen. The life version is obviously safer with instant leech, but once again its tough to say if VP will be around for much longer, given the degree of VP abuse by life builds in 3.0.

Quick side note: the claimed 14M versus shaper seems quite a bit off for two reasons. The first is that "enemy is shocked" is checked off in PoB, and yet the shock can only come from Vessel of Vinktar and Vinktar only gives you 10% increased damage, but ticking off "shocked" status in PoB gives an extra 50% damage. To simulate what Vinktar gives you, you can tick off "is the enemy intimidated" for an extra 10% damage.

To see how much Damage on Full Life actually gives you in PoB on a life build, you can path to CI in the tree since grabbing CI will automatically put you on full life. Swapping Slow Proj for Damage on Full Life jumps the barrage dps from 8.2M dps to 9.5M dps. Even then, there's more degen from Blood Rage than life regen, so if you inflate dps from Blood Rage, then I don't think you'll be consistently getting the dps boost from Damage on Full Life. It might be fair to say then that the actual dps is around 8.2M dps on shaper and guardians. As a result, it seems that the ES signalshot version gets slightly more dps with the 100% consistent Damage on Full Life and the ability to run Blood Rage simultaneously (I get around 8.6M shaper dps on the ES version, with 8K ES). But again, the ES version lags behind in terms of safety/ehp.

Of course such high dps on mirrored gear is total overkill so the slight differences in dps discussed above are rather moot, and it goes without saying that the life version is vastly superior on non legacy gear. ES is pretty much dead for attack-based builds right now outside of standard.

Hello guys,

currently at level 87 and struggling in boss fights. I just dont get it why so many people say "ez", "deathless" and whatever. Died so many times in boss fights. Just running out of flask charges and thats it. Barrage is a difficult attack for me, its like you have to have some counterstrike-experience to aim correctly at the boss. And barrage isnt providing enough damage to kill bosses really fast.

May someone have a look at my gear? Maybe my bows are too weak. Currently running 6l Harbinger and 6l chest, cant afford a decent second 6l Harb right now.

Thanks in advance!
