Just out of curiosity is there a hard and fast rule for knowing what your pod over lap is?

For overlap, you can check the AoE you got in PoB under calcs. Basically its something like at x1.5 AoE you have 5 overlaps and after that, every ~0.5 you get 1 more overlap.

To find out your actual projectile count, look at your TR tooltip in-game or under calcs in pob. There should be an arrow/projectile count.

Finally got myself 1 set of cluster (1 large + 2 medium with notables mentioned).

However, when I placed in cluster jewel into my pob...

Damage before cluster: 3.4m DoT DPS
Damage after cluster: 3.9m DoT DPS

The damage increment is not as much as I expected. Am I missing something?

PoB here,

Any feedback/insights are appreciated!

Clusters are endgame material. The damage seems fine for the gear that's being used in the pob considering the fact that the strengths of the clusters aren't being put to use.

Cluster jewels come with 2 jewel sockets and currently the socketed jewels look like placeholders. Ideally 3 or 4 mod jewels are what you're going for and 4 mod ones are obviously better than the current 2 mod ones. Also, when you start investing into + arrows and get up to say 7, you need the AoE for overlap.

Btw set the enemy boss to sirus, when i set that you'll immediately see the changes. Due to not enough arrows from your side (you need TR +1 arrow enchant or the +1 arrow from quiver), you'll get the overlap

@Mazino_Urek, do you mean the jewels that are socketed in the cluster has to be better mods? Like atk spd and increased dot? If the AoE is important, I will start working on second set of cluster jewel before I fully change my tree.

@Remicaster1, +1 arrow enchant is 15-20ex... Wow.. I changed enemy to Sirus and the DoT DPS difference is just 300k, it is quite less than what I expected..

300k dot dps is quite a lot tbh. When you boss you will notice the difference. You can get a quiver with +1 arrow and DoT with life and res, but don't get the +1 arrow for now because the overlap would be just fine as PoB can't calculate TR dps 100% accurately

So should I get a +1 arrow quiver?

Making your own +1 arrow and dot quiver should be fairly easy. In the future after you get your second set of clusters you could go for the cheaper route and corrupt quill rains yourself to get a +1 quill rain. That way you don't have to spend a lot on helm with enchant. Someone I know bought like a 100 quill rains at 1c each and vaal'd them for the +1 arrow.

That means my carcass has to be 6L right? OK...

I strongly suggest picking up a +2 6-link carcass if you want more damage. There was one up for 13ex and imo that's a nice price for it.

Edit: If you don't have the currency, a normal one will do.
