I've been playtesting this build the past couple days and could get to red maps with nothing but a 5L Quill Rain, a decent flask setup and a somewhat underleveled char. It really performed well for me and I'll most likely league start with this.

I've got a couple questions though

Why Enduring Mana Flask instead of Foreboding? the mana recovery doesnt matter and foreboding lasts 33% longer (its especially nice since that means the duration will be similar to the utility flasks which mean easier Flask piano)

Also whats the best way to apply wither stacks aside from blast rain + mirage archer? Imo mirage archer is so much QoL for Toxic Rain that I prefer to run it there. Should I just go with wither totems or are there better options?


The build has 3 auras in it (malevolence, flesh and stone, and skitterbots/aspect of the spider) which leaves you with very little mana left to cast TR. Enduring just lets you practically cast as much as you can and as fast as you can during the buff duration. You could however have enough bench crafted non-channeling crafts on gear to have TR on 0 mana cost, so you can drop your mana flask by then for something else like a quartz flask.

Another way would be withering step, but personally I don't like it. I'm not sure of this but I think ballistas with wither setup could be a thing? I would stick to traditional wither totems imo if you value mirage archer on TR. It's just more reliable and applies max wither really fast on bosses.

Let's hope it isn't anything to bad!

The Elder-influenced Weapon modifiers that grant a chance for Poisons or Bleeds inflicted with this Weapon to deal 100% more Damage have been removed. In their place, Elder-influenced Weapons can now roll a new Local Poison or Bleed Damage over Time Multiplier modifier. The double damage chance modifiers were too multiplicatively powerful for these builds, providing power that only the modifier granted, so they've been changed to an effect that is additive with other Bleed/Poison damage multipliers.
