Could somebody please review my tree and possibly help me optimize it? I'm playing raider+slayer retch wander and I feel like at some places I'm wasting too much points on the tree but I’m totally not sure where this happens, tried PoB but still having really hard time…

I cba doing full PoB analysis, just some quick pointers:

- IMO you're trying to fit too much uniques onto your character and as a result have to grab a
shitton of resists on jewels. That can work, may be not the most efficient way though.

- your pathing around the ranger starter area is pretty bad. You grab Aspect of the Lynx, but dont grab Finesse? You do super inefficient pathing to Revenge of the Hunted and Forces of Nature instead of grabbing starter Ranger life nodes and dps elsewhere.

- you spend a lot of points on meh nodes around scion starting area without getting anywhere

Also acuity, a pretty gg wand and casual level 4 Empowers/Enlightens, but no Dying Sun, no boot enchant, and seriously meh rings. Thats probably because its standard and this is gear you had lying around?

Heya, decided to give a try to your build and im having lots of fun, however im strugling with dps against bosses on t12+, can any check my gear and give me some protips on what i should focus first in upgrades?




atm have about 400-500c in currency and 6l belly ready to wear.

Thanks for your input. Regarding equipment - you are right, that's what i've had in stash literally. About the pathing - I've imported the whole tree into PoB but i can't make a tree with same/more DPS for less/same amount of points. Every time i save 1-3 points i lose so much that i can't make up for it in 5+ points. I've been trying to fix pathing around mentioned nodes but no luck...

What's next for me? How much better is Fostering? Thanks.

your wand is quite questionable (no crit at all). I'd yoloannul it in harbinger, might not be the best idea in standard though.

Fostering is worse for mapclear but better for single target. With Lyco equipped the accuracy is wasted, so.. the dmgboost should be around 10% with this up. That's a bit inflated b/c of the missing ele resists from QOTF.

Without knowing your goals, preferred playstyle, budget etc, it's just a guessing game anyway. Please be a bit more precise on this topic, and you'll get better help.

Appreciate the response. The wand is on the cheap side. I didn't spend much on it because i seemed to handle everything without the 5+ex investment.(not outside of budget) Have never done Shaper. Would like to clear all content one time before returning to T11-15 for speed farming(QotF?) Do I need to(should)drop the shield and work on accuracy for end endgame content? Shoot for 95 but is 90-95 acceptable?

Appreciate any further guidance and expertise.

Hi folks,

so far I really enjoy this build. But somehow the HoI+Curse-Setup doesn't work. Is this because my DPS is too low atm? Or is there something else I don't see?

Would be nice, if you could help me :-)

The curse is applied via Herald of Ice explosions, you need to deal a crit or roll a freeze (Primeval Wheel/Pathfinder ascendancy gives % chance), and deal 5% of the target maximum hp as cold damage.

You can't apply the curse with Elemental Focus since you can't freeze using that gem.

Thx for the clarification. I just looked a bit into your gear/PoB. Not exactly sure how to proceed but I can show you some options:

1) some "mandatory" upgrades:

- level up (at least 92-93). Frenzy charge + crackling speed are both very strong.
- if you can stick with +1 Atziris step - try to vorici 8 recolour / buy (whatever is cheaper) R-G-x-x or even better R-G-B-x for Wrath-Enlighten-Empower. That should give you +3 lvl on wrath with the cheap variant (emp 3 - enl. 3 - lvl 20 wrath)
- drop primal spirit for Shaper / other endgame bosses and take dmg (in case of shaper) or life (other content).
- get at least one more dps-flask for bosses (atziri's / wise oak).

2) helmet/shield things

there are basically two ways of building for single target dps.

A) "traditional way" with +2 barrage enchant dps helmet and thunderfist/ hysteria/horror gloves. +2 Rat's nest / starkonja's are quite expensive, but even +2 devoto's or +1 Rat's are good upgrades. The downside is the dps-loss for KB compared to your current setup.

B) esh's mirror shock stacking with vaal breach. You activate the breach immediately before the boss fight to get the shock stacks. To justify the lycosidae-drop you will need some accuracy rolls on gear (Yriel's + one roll on your jewellery or two rolls on the jewellery).

Since you are not using a "... if not killed recently" boot enchant, you can combine both A) + B) without penalties.

Ah thanks. That was The point I missed. After finally switching to Thunderfists I solved the problem without knowing why, since I donˋt use ele focus in the 4-link Setup =)
