[3.4] Noodle's STOP! Toxic Rain / Withering Touch Pathfinder

I am doing something similar with Much different items, getting the same numbers PoB wise with more life pool. Found a build for this new skill posted off the forums site and tweaked it. I Like the idea of rain of arrows instead of Tr again on totem. I think the original build i was following was focusing on pod explosion damage but while fiddling i found the DoT damage much more satisfying and seemingly more powerful. Also I managed to fit in 31% chaos resist thru lucky item grabs. If you dont mind taking a look at my PoB I'd love some feedback/improvement suggestions.

Also, i understand i am using a trickster build instead of ranger. I am mainly posting here because this is the first guide ive found focusing on the DoT part of the dmg.

Quick question about the build, how is mana maintained? Is it all done using Clarity and the hybrid flask or am I missing something?

I saw that someone had suggested dropping the "Doedre's" ring and using a +curse amulet along with "Thief's Torment", but is this really necessary?


--edit

Turns out that once I got my end-game gear, I have had no mana problems :)


It is a little tight if I reserve space for Blasphemy and 'Arctic Armour', but it is doable and most of the time I just do without 'Arctic Armour

This build worked out great for me. I'm still gonna push to 100 for a few more skill points but this is pretty much where I'm stopping.



Not sure how to link my Jewels. :)

So I got lucky and got a farrul's fur from a key so I decided to add a twist to your build. Aspect of the cat makes it run pretty smooth. Here is my current getup.

Nice! It was something I looked into while theorycrafting but it's so pricey. Lucky!!

I followed your build pretty closely and it’s super powerful and fast. I’ve experimented and modified it slightly to fit my tastes as I made her an orb/doctor farmer. With about 40% quantity gear and a Biscos on I was farming up to tier 7-8 maps, usually deathless.

I just 6 linked my Atziris evasion armor and swapped the temp chains with enfeeble. Now I’m able to farm tier 12 and lower with all mana issues completely resolved; honestly I could drop clarity. When I put actual gear on her I can do tier 16 maps and have my choice of random buffs or defensive perks.

In a perfect world I’d run 3 curses and use temp chains, enfeeble, and witchfire. I may pickup those boots and do just that. A couple of nice jewels and upgraded quality gems and I got my forever farmer. Found 1 doctor and 5 exalts so far and I’m just now using a drop filter. I’m gonna really see what she can do here in a few weeks.

Although enfeeble is fine with yellow maps, IMO temp chains is better for red maps and deep delving. This build has absolutely no problems with clear speed - farming red maps in a minute or two - but it somewhat lacks defences, and the temp chains curse is really important there. I am using a slightly modified version of the build, with Potency of Will node for more QoL. If you want, check my character MuchoMurkaCZ.

BTW, I finally managed to get to delve lvl 300 and to kill Shaper deathlessly on Saturday. Thx Noodle, and stroke your cat for me :)

Why Rain of Arrows on the totem instead of another Toxic Rain?

I am using this build in Hardcore Delve and it's working great. Not a fan of the ranger but it is a nice change from Marauder or Templar.

My question: you are using Quill Rain and for me that is a major dps decrease from Infractem. Why is that? What am I missing here? :)
