Hello, i just started out playing POE and tried out this build.

this is my current set up https://pobb.in/xHEa59UuumKG


is there any improvement can be made please suggest i will try them out. i have been changing the passive skill around base on what i have seen and have not really found the most optimal one?

despite seeing 18m ignite dpm i feel the mob dont really die fast? not sure if i did something wrong or i am playing it wrongly

get rid of quality on EA gem, it adds delay to explosions.
get spread ignite on gloves, as u have no ignite prolif.
getting more arrows is also nice for mapping.

rain of splinters jewel. (most optimal prob, I lose far more dps from lmp support in bow :))
Thread of hope, large range, place under survivalist
Take multishot and master fletcher. There are also few other you can take.
You need odd number of arrows, or they wont shot straight ;D

Hey

First, apply elemental catalysts on your belt for 42% faster ignites (yours is 35% right now), will feel more comfortable while mapping (ignites starting faster, mobs dying faster), and is a 4% ignite dps increase.

Then if you have the currency, craft again your bow for +10% ignite dps (see my post page 291).

Also, and not related to dps, I just noted that you spell suppression is below 100%. You want it to be 100% so every spell that hits you is damage reduced. Right now too many spells can os you (do you die often ?)

Also you didnt check the "enemy was hit by cold damage" in your pob's configuration, which is granted at least by your ring. Your numbers are higher than what you think.

Drop determination for malevolence and you'll get 18% more dps. I get that you run determination cause you didn't go all the way into evasion (and also you lose the +15% spell suppression from evasion mastery doing so).

In short : with these changes (and the correct configuration of your pob !!) you go up to almost 33M ignite dps and faster ignites for better clear.

Edit : i think you also forgot to check the "do you have convergence" in your pob configuration (or this is on purpose cause you wanted to know the dps against non unique enemies)

Edit (2) : just like Kenavru said, get ignite spread implicit on gloves !!!! Probably the most important right now.

thank you all for all the insight. only started POE this season XD still figuring out all this POB settings and configuration. the setting is definitely not on purpose haha. will make the necessary changes suggested and see how it works out and the playstyle.

yes I do die often.. and often is those 1 shot.. is should I change towards having 100%? changing the armour/hat? or is there any passive note I could obtain them?

i will try out crafting the bow next after all this changes. but seems complicated but will try it out soon!

i think u really figured out my issues.

I guess this is my full build here..I dont know should I change a bit my tree nodes on the right side and maybe get another cluster jewel?

I think I would like some more tanky idea for this. I dont know anyone got any opinion?

You could start with unallocating the 8 nodes on the right side indeed.
Then, you can path from Reflexes to Hired Killer for 6 points.

Yo go from 4198hp to 4248 hp that way + 2% life recovery per kill so you dont die mapping/delving/whatever you do.

Guess next would be to try and get as much chaos res as you can.

I see you're running determination. It gives you a nice armor increase (i'm not sure what you die to tbh ?)

Personally, I don't use it (and i almost never die), but keep purity of elements right now. That way you can get ailment immunity (which is huge qol/survivability while mapping imho) + a watcher's eye with chaos res up to 50 while affected by purity of elements.

Without upgrading gear, and assuming you can get +1 level easily (even go to 100, why not), you can then put 3 points in Asylum nodes for 30 chaos res + 30% reduced effect of curses on you.

With all this, a bit more hp, close to chaos res cap, regen all the way up mapping, at the cost of extra armor.

You'll even be overcapped in resistances so you are more flexible with potential upgrades.

Edit : you could also drop Blood Rage for Enduring Cry since you already generate frenzy charges from frenzy and use enduring cry/anomalous for emergency regen whenever you need it.

Edit (2) : Also, get a life flask that gains 3 charges when you get hit, pretty helpful (and maybe on movespeed pot too, it's nice qol). Also, do you have bleed immunity somewhere ? (i think i saw a jewel for corrupted blood, but regular bleeding ?)
