Great build! I'm thinking of running a BF/BB build for the start. I am still confused on how this is tankier overall than the Chieftan version of the build. Am I missing something?

I'll also be running in HCSSF, and I am not sure I'll realistically be able to get gear to make the raider version as safe while having better damage/speed.


Chieftan struggles with elemental EHP and is susceptible to shotguns because of it. With the new league mechanic we can assume small arenas + dangerous monsters = need for large EHP pool. Chieftan can stack endurances charges and eventually go transcendence but your damage and boss sustain will be very poor.
I'm really torn on whether to YOLO it with Lightning Trap leveling (having never leveled that way myself) or whether to do it with TR totems like I did for another ranger-based starter last league. I put some trees together for the TR method and it doesn't look too bad even when trying to keep it around ~20 regrets.

That said I respect the experience of the OP who seems to have had good results with the trap method, so I'll probably just give that a try since it'll be an interesting experience either way (and I'm not playing trade so an extra half hour or so in the acts doesn't bother me if things go a bit sideways).

Props to the OP for putting this thread together. I'm impressed by the patience you've shown in responding to some of the inane questions in here already lol.
FWIW, you mention multiple times that the build has 100% increased onslaught effect.

This should be changed to 150% increased onslaught effect with Rapid Assault and Avatar of the Chase.

TR is very solid for leveling as well, it comes down to personal experience and testing for as to why I like LT. If you're more comfortable on TR though it may be worth doing it just for comfort's sake. Hope you enjoy the build and the new league!

It's a really common drop from Sirus. You shouldn't have any problem getting it.
Your PoB is still 3.13. Does it need update or can we use the "convert to 3.14" without consequences?
