This combined with clusters making it easier to get chaos resistance capped, I would probably go for Divine Flesh from a Xibaqua vaal legion jewel

That's a nice idea, would you consider using rare chest with "physical damage taken as chaos" mod, instead of Kintsugi then? Or is Kintsugi more reliable overall.

Kintsugi is much better. 20% less damage taken very often

Just here to say that I really want to try this in 3.11 and hoping that OP is gonna update the guide. I've re-rolled my COC char to try it out and my god have i missed bow builds <3

Thanks to OP for the guide.
Much love

Ill update it in time lesser.

As I see it there are 2 ways of making the build now.

Going life with heavy reduction from Wind Dancer + Kintsugi

Or going full Elemental ailment immunity hybrid with thread of hope.

You can achive with a slick combination of crafted immunty for ele ailments + a evasion small clusters.

The best cluster notables are: Wicked Pall (Large + medium), Unholy grace (large) and maybe unwavering evil (large) - Eternal Suffering (medium)

+ Life small cluster (fettle or the life/ES), dodge ailment immunty (evasion) or max chaos res (chaos)

when we hit the weekend ill propose items + pobs + new leveling pobs for the next league. it will take me some time to write in bbcode

I am going to update/ change the guide today, so there will be alot of changes incoming suggesting items. I will try to use an advanced PoB with multiple points / early-mid-late gear. It will take a lot of time to make.

I am still considering making a passive tree for wind dancer + kintsugi, since it seems more ssf friendly rather than trying to get thread of hope and the other stuff. It just seems like a easy go to for early league, but I have no experience playing it - That's kinda my issue. I dont know if it feels better / has better survivability.

Thanks for great guide and I also watch your stream for leveling support, appreciate it.

Could I please get some feedback on progression, example:

Can I do early confortable red maps day 2 in new league with ~50C investment?
Can I do comfortable shaper day 3 with ~2 ex investment?

Thanks!

Yes easily especially in SC. My last ssf hc run I did Sirus in 1 day playtime!

Amazing, thanks for support and quick. Will use this is a league starter instead of Champ Bow Bleed as it seems it required a lot higher investment.

Is 5-link +2 with 1.5asp bow much better than a quill rain + 6 link armor?

Im thinking Quill Rain TR + HoAg for leveling as Quill Rain attacks so fast = Quick stacks.

Quill Rain sucks ass, im sry to say.

I go for a 3 link bow as fast as possible with CA + Pierce + Void and a 3link TR with TR + Mirage + Void

then in act 3 I go for 4link CA + Pierce + Vic pro + Void and 4link TR with 4link TR + Mirage + vic pro + Void

I transition into reflex/grove 4link bow and later 5link thicket/maraketh bow with +2.

Then I finish imperial set and fossil craft.

For levelling you can do whatever feels fastest for you (keep in mind HOAG requires investment in chance to poison as it only offers partial chance to poison itself and otherwise you won't get much virulence).

For mapping esp. in trade league you can buy imperial legacy or porcupine cards early and slap a +2 bow gem essence on it very fast, so you won't have to run with a 5-link for long. Easy 6-link bows lower the value of running tabula, you can just run a stat stick chestpiece instead and be less squishy from the get go.

Personally I don't believe this rumour spread by certain youtuber that quill rain is the same damage as crafted bow. It has 30% damage penalty that doesn't go away no matter what. You'll also have to solve mana issues because double the attack speed, double the mana consumption. You'll probably be forced to run mana flask and / or thief's torment (which is actually quite in demand as a levelling item so dunno how cheap it can be at league start, same with praxis rings).

So my PoB is finally done for 3.11.

I will start editing the guide now with gear recommendations and extra nodes.

I will later make a new Video Guide talking about the meta changes from 3.10
