[3.13]🏹 Poison Barrage-VF / Scourge Arrow / TR PF | Bottled Fortify | The Tankiest Ranger + High DPS

I just kept using caustic arrow with toxic rain as the wither inducer haha.

Worked ok.

Once you get a 4L and use a pierce quiver, I like using arrow nova with CA. Really helps the clear...

I'm lvl 61 and it feels like I'm not doing any damage with Toxic Rain, am I doing something wrong? Bow too slow?

If you level up with TR, you would want to spec to the Method to the Madness wheel. Quill Rain may help if you have issue with APS.

Update progress (level 43 Pathfinder)

(just to give those who are new to Pathfinder a sense of progression)

Has just started Act 5

Current stats:

• 5K poison Barrage DPS.
• 3K dot Caustic Arrow DPS.
• First lab: Nature's Boon (replenish 3 flask charges / 3 sec, reduced ele damage taken).
• 85% physical damage reduction.
• Herald+Aura: Herald of Agony + Purity of Element.
• Haven't died.. yet.

I think I've spent more time on taking care of my farm than finishing the storyline. :D

What should be requirements to switch to scourge arrow?

Darkscorn or some good poison bow. Poison Barrage + Rain of Arrow (or Caustic Arrow) can carry you well until then.

Saw like 3-4 panic threads on reddit about the about the inability to craft good clusters. What do we do when our clusters coast 20ex when I'm level 70. Hoping this is just overreaction.

I've found 3 cluster jewels in acts (lvl 59 atm) and it feels that rolling the clusters will be a real PITA - trying to hit just one notable is very hard (loads and loads of alts) and the build is based on 1 large cluster with 3 notables and 2 sockets which may come close to impossible (expensive or extremely lucky with fossils/grove crafts).

So I'm currently planning to work with standard tree (pre 3.10) and see what will happen.

Don't be panic. At least for now. 😅

From what I learned, the chance to roll of some specific mods in the large clusters has been significantly reduced, e.g. Unspeakable gift now has a weight of 32.

The other mods we favor such as Unholy Grace, Touch of Cruelty, and Wicked Pall don't seem to have low roll. Their weights look good to me, rangibg from 230 to 530. That mean we will forfeit the poison explosion from the Unspeakable notable and opt for more DPS with Unholy Grace (nothing changes).

I'll keep my eyes on the situation. I have got us a backup plan if things go south, but the current data tell me that we're still in a good shape unless the data is not correct.

Edit: pls let me know if you have difficult rolling the cluster jewels we need. The cluster level should be 75+.

There's level-80 PoB that has no cluster jewel. Perhaps you coulf start from there.

The good news is the flask node medium clusters are super easy and cheap.
