loving ripped my lvl 65 templar last night in Act 9. Was following ZiggyD scorching ray / RF build. Died less than an hour after equipping RF - had enough mana/life regen that i was barely suffering any DoT, 4k hp, 900ish mana, MoM. Tankiest character I've played yet and still loving died!

Now got wild strike marauder going, so far so good but can't help wondering why I'm struggling so much to get through to maps

it's because you're playing hardcore

So yeah, seems like you could do the 1% MS Charged Dash trick most easily with QOTF, 4 weight of sin, Lioneye's Paws, and enough evasion to get you to 41% movespeed when not at low life, which would be somewhere around 4k evasion depending on if you get movespeed from the tree or use a shield. Once you have a charged dash fully charged and ready to explode on a boss, use Coruscating Elixir to drop down to 1 hp and release. At 41% movespeed it should probably charge fast enough? You'd need to use ES as your main defense. I suppose you could combo Coruscating Elixir with Forbidden Taste to instantly bring your life back to full or near-full after the dash.

This seems like it should work. With Leap Slam or Shield Dash or even Whirling Blades you can move around pretty quickly while ignoring your low movespeed.

Am I forgetting anything that would make this easier? Or did I screw up somewhere and it won't work?

After ripping a few slayers I think I decided that starforge lacerate just isn't my thing. Anyone wanna by a nicely rolled 6l starforge? :razz:

In celebration of all that failure I blew a shitload of fuse that someone quitting the league had given me and managed to not 6l a belly of the beast. I'll get it eventually though (I'm thinking respec into gladiator, do some sort of high block gladiator with varunastra and the surrender for fun?)

Theres a near exact one (his is a bit better) up for 65ex.

Alright so this isn't like a full on guide, so follow this at your own risk if it sucks!

Ascendency: Slayer (Bane of Legends, Endless Hunger, Brutal Fervor, Headsman in that order)

Required Gear: Lioneye's Fall (130c, sorry lads), Lioneye's Glare (low end 1a, high end 40c), Haemophilia (5c), Carnage Heart (20c), Devoto's Devotion (5c)
Recommended Gear: Lioneye's Vision (works great in a 5L, is absolutely insane in a 6L), Drillneck (5c)

Skills:
Barrage - Physical Projectile Attack Damage - Chance to Bleed - Brutality - Greater Multiple Projectiles - Maim - Pierce. If you don't have a 6L Lioneye's Vision like I do, skip Maim.
Split Arrow - Pierce - Chance to Bleed - Physical Projectile Attack Damage - Brutality - Maim.

Auras:
Arctic Armor
50% Aura of your choosing. I use Determination.

You place the Lioneye's Fall jewel in Duelist, and get the following nodes: Wrecking Ball, Splitting Strikes, Destroyer.

Tree: here

Basically plays like a standard split/barrage bow user EXCEPT EVERYTHING EXPLODES ALWAYS. With the stacking from Crimson Dance (which PoB cannot calculate yet, FYI) it feels a lot like old school poison on everything but bosses. On bosses it's merely very good.

So far I've dunked on everything that I've run, but I have not gotten to Guardians/Shaper on it yet. That's probably today!

Can't chance HH in the stash. You need to be in Nemesis. I'm guessing he put it in the stash like that to show it off, or to slap it with a divine orb.

I'm curious which way works out better. Ancient orbs are more expensive, but you can do more of them per map and you don't have to worry about getting a magic/rare.

It used to be a good introductory endgame spot back when the game had 3 difficulties, but now it's just another zone. You shouldn't need to XP farm anywhere until you hit the postgame, which is one big XP farm.

No, you want Blood Aqueducts if you need to grind before maps.

Why are people are using Blood Aqueducts instead of Oasis? Oasis feels like it has WAY better density to me. It feels just like dried lake.

Regarding the Headhunter, I got it from The Valkyrie divination card set. It gives a random Nemesis item, so it can give you a HH just with extremely low odds. I turned in 8 sets and got this on the 6th turn in. Each set costs about 70-100c.

If i wanted to put together a hot poo poo wander to poo poo all over guardians and shaper specifically, what's going to do more for my single target action? a +2 barrage rat's nest (or abyssus I guess) and a relatively cheap wand, or a nicer wand and a cheaper +2 hat (rando rare with life or a devotos, probably).

Got a 6l belly with great rolls and about 1000c to spend on the rest of the poo poo if I do it.

breeze into it with a level 40ish rare using about 20 fusings, think nothing of it, and then wonder why everyone talks about it like it's such a big deal until I get an actual good item and try again
