A quality of life alternative to enduring cry (which may be annoying without instant cast) could be steelskin.
I personally put withering step on my left click, steelskin on my right click and crafted on all my flasks 'trigger when using a guard skill'.
While mapping, I keep both clicks pressed which gives me permanent lifetap and automated flasks. While bossing, I only press right click when trying to remove ailments, or trying to defend from a hit.

The upside is not pressing flasks while still having control over their charges and permanent lifetap without spamming skills.

The downside is losing 18% phys damage mitigation. You still get some defense from steelskin, though.
Also, if you take the timeless jewel for elemntal damage mitigation and max chaos resist, you can swap soul of arakaali with soul of lunaris for phys damage mitigation + movement speed + chance to avoid projectiles + some dodge chance when hit if you're not capped.

I was thinking of rerolling into this build, what would you say is the minimum budget for it to be able to do T16 maps and some bosses with comfort? Not deathless, just not "use 6 portals as a defense" kinda deal

I decided to reroll to this build some days ago and haven't regretted it a bit. Amazing build but I need some advice.. I just bought the end game bow and the next upgrade I'm thinking is Transcendent Mind and Watcher's Eye but even with those I can't reach your dps at all.. I know I need some chaos mods in my quiver and gloves but that's very hard to do atm since im struggling a lot with the resists. If I change anything my resists fall to below 75%.

My health is very low as well and all I can think of is synthesised rings which will drop my resists as well except if i give more than 4-5ex for each. Can you please look at my build and give me an upgrade order?

Nice build, thanks.

Transitioned my Cold DoT to this since it was awful to play. damage is alot lower to the bosses in this build or lower than most Dot builds since it won't do DoT damage for a long time (Toxic arrow or even Cold DoT will continue to do damage even if you die) but hey, they killed everything playable in this game at the same time made the enemies faster/stronger so we all suffer unless Mirror tier investment which isn't going to happen to 99% or us.

Question: Can i ditch Blink Arrow and use Flame Dash instead ? it's terrible unless it's doing something that i don't know. movement speed is fine without those, just need something better for dodging.

Took the plunge and rerolled into the build, would you mind doing the same for me and giving my build a look and providing me with a upgrade path?

Hi Bro,

just played your build for a couple of days now.
Clearspeed and singletarget is nice, but i dont know how u get all the strength in your POB(single cluster setup).

atm iam using an inertia, but in your pob you dont use it?

Maybe you can look after my profile and get me an short information how to upgrade

Thank you in advance

Resists - It's much easier to cap res if you go for double cluster setup and search for jewels with Life+All res+Double res (~50 resists each)
The additional clusters will also improve your damage.
Watcher's eye keep for last, as its the most expensive piece after the bow, but get the Transcendent mind.

After you improve the resists, look for gloves with DoT multi, one good res and empty prefix for Aspect of the Spider (or Crab if you prefer)

The quiver now only improves CA damage and not by a huge amount, so I actually prefer as much resists as possible + life.

For rings, get Vermillions, shouldn't be expensive. Quality them while they are white and alt roll for t1 life. Then you can craft some res on them. For me each of those is almost 400 life, which is huge.

@f4ward Hello sir, i love this build so much. But ii have a few questions about that. Can you answer please?

1 - You can look my gears in profile. I can run tier 16 maps easily and kill bosses but i still want to increase my dps. What should i upgrade for first?

For now i don't have a good glove, awakened gems, helmet enchant and watcher's eye
. Should i buy awakened gems first or a good glove?


2- Some people using Asenath's Gentle Touch Silk Glove. It has explode. Is it working for this build or these people only want temporal chains effect?

why would we need open pref for aspect if that suffix?
