I will bring this char to level 100 tomorrow, then i switch to Falconer and try out some new builds. I will come back to Shadow HoA later this season once i geared up the whole char and push abit more into corruption and arena to give a final feedback.
Hey, mate. I really enjoy your stuff. I've been playing HOA for a bit. I'm running a setup with net for proccing smoke bomb with the Hunters of Heorot node. Pretty fun! Just using unspec decoy on the bar. Anyway hope you are enjoy the game and keep up the content!
@@NovembersDooomwill try it, but i guess it just lacks "more multiplier" in general in the skilltree, even though we have alot of flat dmg. Have to test it.
@@ZensunniWay-re5fualso cool idea. Net has faster attack animation compared to smoke bomb so i can see the benefit there. For me personally having 2 decoy charges is the most powerful defensive tool for a marksman, thats why i have to spec into in high endgame to survive.
looks a fun build to play for sure, just buff your HoA dmg and watch boss hp falling while you are running around :)) I was wondering how do you get that much base movement speed (74%) but i see on planner you go for silvers rings, divine girdle etc. More speed = more dmg hehe and then wyrmhide chest and jade dice for increased dodge rating, stacking dex and hp. And you don't need crit stats etc. Thats a really smart build but this kind of gem need some love to get in really high corruption for sure :/ That's the only cons
I see your rolling without the unique amulet and quiver , hopefully you get a chance to do final update to your endgame gear recommendations in guide. Thanks
Final update will definitely come. In the meantime i play different builds because i can farm for HoA specific gear aswell with them. Arrowguard and Aurora amulet is more for Arena tbh. It can help also you out alot in high corruption.
One thing that has me a bit confused with the guide is how you suggest the bow to just have +fire/light/cold damage on it. Does phys not work? And does the element not matter? There must be some interaction with "Crystal arrows" that I do not fully understand here right?
You either go flat fire, cold or lightning because we use %increased elemental dmg over time on our gear. This affix has higher tier value compared to %increased damage over time. At the end of the day the element that you add as flat dmg doesnt matter that much. The whole conversion system in this game is pretty bad imo. But flat elemental sources will get boosted by our gear alot more than physical. Crystal Arrows allows us to use chill which is a powerful defensive tool, since we cant apply it (no hit dmg except Skystrike). You can either go fire or cold conversion, cold is more defensive, fire has more dmg potential.
@@trikster08 Aha! That's pretty interesting, yeah I definitely do not understand how all the conversions and such actually work in this game, and I haven't found a great spot to read about it tbh. Are you aware of any good sources? Even some UA-cam video perhaps? Thanks a lot for helping me understand this btw, it does at least help me understand how to gear the char, even if I don't truly understand the system behind it 😅
what i dont understand about merchants guilt and cof is they say you can swap but you lose all your gear you earned. But then how do you regear your character if you have literally no gear? if all your gear is locked in merchants guild or cof then you swap, youre just screwed?
Yep i had the same feeling when i tested it back on CT. Also pretty much everything in my stash is CoF gear that i will not be able to use with a new char. Need some new stash organisation i guess :)
I have a quick question do u just go flat damage damage over time and 2 resistances on your quiver I’m running a arrowguard atm but was thinking of running a quiver till I got lp2 for it
do you know of any good multishot builds with marksman? im not the biggest fan of skills that rain from the sky so blast rain, hoa & dark quiver are out of the picture
Check out the channel flurry multishot guide on maxroll by lizard or the drelkors selfcast multishot by perrythepig. I played both of them similar adjusted to my playstyle.
I wonder what time exactly did you spec into hoa after leveling with rupture? I don't wanna do it too early and instead of getting faster just making my leveling a clunky experience
Once i unlocked HoA i specced into the build (was around level 40). For 1 or 2 levels it feels a bit slow, but you will get your levels for each skill back relatively quick to reach high dmg numbers. You can also check my detailed Shadow HoA Leveling Guide on my channel. I explained every step there.
I don't know how you can play with this setup for each pack, for me it is way too clunky. I play a blast rain marksman now and it is extremely fun. Shame I could only reach lvl 87 because servers are permanently down when I try to play :(
Difinitely need a different mindset to get into kiting playstyle. I dided so many time when I kite too much. You need to know the limit, the enemy and the map to play this build as well as he did. I do not. So I just play it a bit more safe. I use the combo more frequently. I do not attract a large crowd etc(especially range mob)
@@marcelrasperger1668 🤣I mean Maxroll already covered alot of builds, and Volca did an amazing job for blast rain. In the meantime im trying to find new stuff :)

Hope you can get a build to work with the falcon fists. I tried and failed miserably. But I'm not big brain with builds like you are lol.

First time im trying this build and i dont find it clunky at all, actually quite fun. Thanks for your videos progress vids and all the work :)
I understand everyone who says the build feels clunky. But sometimes i just like to play something different and off meta :)

It's exciting to see what kind of Falconer you'll make. Show it as soon as possible. :) (Tulluxx)
Ill do my best :)

I'd appreciate it if you could share the filter you're currently using

Yea i have a 2x flat dmg/2x resistance ivory quiver. Very easy to start with until you get 2lp+ Arrowguard.
one other question i have is for elemental damage over time and damage over time scale the same for fire cold and lightning damage?@@trikster08
do you have a loot filter for this class?

@@trikster08 Respecced myself too after looking at the guide and all is looking great, thanks!

I also don't know why i still play this build after 3 years.

You switch to blast rain ?
Nope i started a falconer and will continue with this one later in the season
@@trikster08 sad i was hoping that you, the rogue guy 1#, doing some crazy explosive Trapper marksman Build 😂😵✌🏻

All good sir ✌🏻
BTW i was Looking his stream he is already on warlock i think ^^ 🙈
I hate to ask because i know how you feel about it, but any chance you will share your endgame loot filter? 🙏
