[3.9] [Updated] Caustic Arrow CI Trickster - Very tanky, fast mapper, safe playstyle

Thanks for the ES gear details! I probably should switch to flame dash also, I was hoping the cooldown would keep getting a lot better for regular dash.

Haven't been able to log in the forums the last few days for some reason.

Anyway about the timeless jewels, I really can't find a good example or place we would use one in this build either. They are a bit confusing. Doesn't seem like any of the transformed keystones would help much anyway.

Been enjoying the build so far. Just got to maps and have been updating gear. Quick question. How do we run Malevolence, Discipline, Aspect of the Spider, and Arctic Armour at the same time? When I run Malevolence, Discipline, and Aspect of the Spider, I only have 7% unreserved Mana Left. Thanks

Hi. Well, we don't, you either use Arctic Armour or Aspect of the Spider/Crab.

Ah, I guess that makes sense haha. I've been mixing the Default Gear and Budget Gear, so I didn't think about that. Thanks!

Is Aspect of the Spider is generally better than Arctic Armour unless you need the extra defenses?

Yeah, by a lot. The damage bonus it gives is great, and slows are as well.

Can we see the budget version in action?

How much will it be ? 1 ex?

Is a Soul Strike with an Additional Arrow Corruption worth 4-5 ex? I have at least 9 ex to work with and I'm wondering what I should upgrade next.

Build feels really great playing T10+ Maps and I'm only level 74. I'm blowing through them while taking very little damage for the most part. My first build this league was Tectonic Slam and it had much better gear and was level 90 and it played much worse than this build. Squishy and slow, the opposite of this build. Only concern is Single Target DPS sometime, like during Alva encounters, but I guess I can swap in a Slower Projectiles gem to help with that. Thanks for the great guide and build!

I was playing the budget version in Flashback, so you can check out the gear. I didnt recorded anything though :/ But it was super cheap to get it going, 1 ex sounds reasonable.

For clear speed, the +1 quiver is definitely worth it imo, otherwise not really (also, it should be like one of your last upgrades).

For single target, best is to try get white socket on bow for conc effect swap, it has pretty huge multi. Rest of damage comes mostly just from levels (if you can get it, level 21 CA will be very strong). And of course, decent multimodded bow with level 4 empower gives really huge damage boost for single target (against, it is mostly just about boosting CA levels).

I've been trying to snag a good multi-modded bow like the one you have on PoB, but they are crazy expensive right now. Gonna be a bit before I am able to upgrade to that bow. I will look for a similar bow to the one I have currently though and try to find one with a White Socket. Thanks again for the guide and help! Really enjoying this build, never played anything like it before. CI and Chaos Damage/DOTs are new to me.

Edit: I dropped Efficacy in the 4-L with Phase Rune, Vaal Haste, and Increased Duration to add a Chaos Golem. It adds additional Physical Damage Reduction which seems helpful with this build as it's the only defence it is mission (although it already feels very tanky). Am I missing a big upside of Efficacy doing this besides the increased duration on phase run? It feels like it's useful but I'm sure there is something I'm overlooking. Thanks!

i cant run all 3 auras... male/disci/and aspect (or enfeeable)...

have all reduced mana notes.. but only 11 mana left... cant use caustic arrow then..

what did i wrong?
