This is amazing. Honestly, thank you so much for putting this guide together. Exactly the type of guide I was looking for since I am coming back after a bit of a break.

Is your endgame lootfilter will hide expensive items, like jewels, uniques, etc? and is there an updated version of it for this league?

I'm using this build guide after being away for 20 leagues, and this has been very helpful for getting me back in the groove and figuring out all of the new league mechanics. Thank you!

In your build guide, under "Milestones" in the "Unlock important endgame crafts by unveiling Betrayal items" section, you state "The three crafts you're looking for are" but then you only list two. Is there a third one?

Hi I've enjoyed this build so far just getting into red maps and feeling low in dps. Any suggestions?

- You are currently using your 6-link for your secondary skill (Toxic Rain Totems), but you want to use that 6-link for your primary skill (Toxic Rain self-cast)

- You are currently level 78. That's an inappropiate level for red maps. Level to 85-90.

- Your Malevolence aura is pretty low. Increase it. If you need Intelligence to do so, get an amulet with Intelligence, for example.

- You are neither using Despair nor are you using a Curse on Hit ring. You want to have at least one of these two options. Read this to check the endgame setup your are supposed to have.

- Get Cluster Jewels. Read this to understand which ones you are looking for.

- Understand how you increase your damage by reading this.

- By the way: Your CWDT setup is wrong. Read this to fix it.

- By the way: You can take out your Onslaught support. It provides basically nothing.

All in all, I recommend reading the guide more carefully. The information you are looking for is already there. You just have to take your time to actually read it.

Thank you for taking your time to reply. I appreciate the comprehensive answer. I managed to pickup the bow for quite cheap, think it was 10c and it has the right colours for the secondary skill setup.

I shall read over the parts you specifically linked again, I think I tried to rush to get into red maps...which makes me ask why wait to 85-90? and what do I do in the meantime? I can generally clear the red maps fine with aoe although single target is lacking. I will make those changes you mentioned above and report back.

Again, thanks for the diagnosis :-)
