I think the main question with Deadeye will be how far apart the Mirage Archers can spawn - if you can dash - mirage - dash - mirage - dash mirage to keep up 3 Quill Rain TR-archers that's going to be a lot of pods.

I could see +2 archers making up for 30% AOE and 15 more damage on paper, but actually playing, in the real game, it may be difficult/mechanically taxing.

+2 arrows is nice for clear and super late game if you can get enough AOE.

The good thing is you can respec to test the Deadeye vs Pathfinder question, unlike the old Pathfinder vs Trickster argument.

Btw, do we really need both mana and hybrid flasks? (yeah i know about the fortify node) Its just that its kinda strange playing a PF build without even 1 unique flask ;p

Yeah, the real question now is: PF, Raider or Deadeye? ;/

That will restrain you from getting damage gear easily since you have to fix the mana issues no matter what. For instance it limits your option for a despair ring, increases the cost of obtaining a +1 amulet, eats away a jewel socket and etc. Also some crafter charge this craft because it's one of the most demanded crafts.

My point is that while fixing mana issue is relatively simple, but there's a huge downside to pay for that price

Getting - mana cost rings week 1 isn't expensive at all, remember they can also drop with that mod from a lot of sources. We got harvest back now, getting a decent despair ring with an open prefix won't be that hard. Same as with +1 amulet. You just chaos spam them in the garden, it wont be that hard to get usable jewelry. As for the jewel, you will lose 7% life,4% dot multi and 10% increased damage, but in turn you get: 4% duration, 100% of your mana for auras, never have to worry about no regen maps and an extra damage flask instead of the mana one.

Anyway, you can always start with a mana flask and change it up whenever you get the items needed to get 0 mana cost skills.
All that is coming from someone that has leaguestarted TR trickster the past 2 leagues. I always start with mana flask and never had any mana issues on any boss as a Trickster. Even killing A8 sirus week 1 with crap gear apart from a 6L + 2gems/attack speed bow, which is super cheap too cause of div cards and +2 bow essence.
Mana flasks have 5 charges iirc, unless your dps is superbad for whatever reason, then i dont see how you can go out of mana on most normal encounters, apart from a crazy t19 100% delirius boss.

Hey guys,

I'm planning to run this as my league starter for the upcoming league.

What I asked myself are if the recommended Ascendancys for PF are still finde in 3.13.

Nature's Reprisal is fine because the 30% inc. AoE,
but Master Toxicist should now be worthless for us because we deal no poison damage, right ?

Question, on Nature's Reprisal, they removed the "30% increased chaos damage" why doesn't that affect the build as much? It seems huge compared to 15% more chaos damage to attack skills, so why is it still an overall buff than a nerf?
