![[PoE 3 23] Scourge Arrow of Menace is kinda Crazy - Day 1 Affliction Update (Caustic Arrow)](/img/n.gif)
Im so excited to play this build I felt like I missed out when you did it the first time and I wanted to play it so much I almost did it the last 2 leagues despite it being nerfed, but didnt go ahead with it, so i'm super excited to try it now!
This is how guides should be explained. 100/10, thanks for sharing!
Just started my first poe build this week after watching from the side lines for many years. My friend sent me this build and this link and is heping me get all setup. thanks for putting in the work to make this im looking forward to following it.
How do you know what gems to get after level 30? I don't see where it goes past that, so i don't know what gems to get until 6 links start appearing.
nice i am gonna start with this build also keep up the good work !!!!
As a new player this guide is amazing, I've done one character a marauder on standard league. Looking for a ranger build and this is such a good way to explain everything, thanks :)
hey i just wanted to come back after my first ever maven kill !!! This build is beyond good and super easy to level with. im on 1 div worth of gear and i was able to do 80+ quant twisted and just killed maven :DD Thank you so so much for the build it works great
I think you can also take the 5% ms for 1 point near the ranger start. I would take it ASAP while you don't have much ms anywhere else and unspec later after the transition to poison and at least 25% ms boots
Thx for that good guide, second time i run a build of u
i think i found my new fav league starter , i have been wanting to do a totem ca but im too noob to do it . thank you for this awesome build guide. build has been smooth af no issues
ty for guide, sir!!!
I just wanna say, "BRAVO" man. This has been one of the comfiest league starters ever. It even manages to go toe-to-toe with Affliction (sometimes) during campaign on scuffed gear, while others get bodied.
You are the 😊best, like always. Thx mate to make my game easy.
Would you be able to create an item filter for the leveling CA build? Im really down to use one ! 😁😁
Wish I had this pob at the start of TotA. Did a test run and it absolutely SHREDS!
Really well done. So many guides for this game are either for someone who doesnt know what an arpg is or someone with 3k hours already. Perfect guide for us that have been playing these kinds of games for years but have shied away from poe. Easy sub
Any plans to release a video on crafting a midgame and/or endgame bow for this build assuming you're using the tincture for all damage can poison?
So what is this build good for? I imagine mapping will be nice, how's bossing and harder content like juicy essence monsters and Ultimatum?
Great! I always played elementalist the last leagues, cause they are very easy to level up and i can go HoT Autobomber with them later. But this looks so good, that I will play a Ranger this league what I haven't done for some leagues. Maybe there will be some kind of Autobomber later. Thx for your good work.
You can Autobomb as a PF with HoT poison.
Voltaxic Rift stuff.
@@MrMithgrothJip, thats what I thought of. The longer a league lasts the more I want to autobomb :)
@@grindingcurrency Aaah, a man of culture.
It doesnt say in the PoB if we kill or save bandits, which one do we pick pls?
Ive played pathfinder too many time.. how would this feel on a frenzy stacking raider?
I'm confused, should I use both CA setup(selfcast and balista) or either one of them?
What about bandits?and ty for this .will roll with this as my league starter.
Are there a good loot filter for a Ranger build with socket and stuff ?
Is this a build where i can automate the flasks and do we actually need a manaflask here?
what are some good league mechanics to farm with this build?
Is it hard to get items for this or do you need to craf alot? I suck at crafting :k)
Though I'll make another league starter, I'm still watching your vids and guides
Guess I want to learn how to make my own builds in the future 😁
Hi @Palsteron, thanks for the awesome guide. Couple of quick question, managed to get the transfigured caustic gem. Do I swap it over now? Just wondering as this gem is doing DoT anymore and don't benefit from those passive nodes. Would you put it on the totem or self? Cheers.
put it on the totem, and yes it's 100% worth
great, all of that good stuff...
I didn't quite understand, does Master Toxicist work with Ancestral Bond?
I haven't done ballista since i did EA like 4 leagues ago, looking forward to this one.
I have a christmas dinner with work during league start - I'm so bummed :p. Hope you have a good time blasting guys!
I'll be leaguestarting this after watching a gazillion videos, seems so fun to play and scale.
tell em you're sick and can't go then blast leaguestart :D
Do you think this will be added to Maxroll?
I just did a practice run, planning to only complete the first lab, but it felt so great and smooth that I accidentally completed the entire campaign. Im not sure to start it, probably LA and look later what this build can do and later may be respect into it with good gear, since ele bow will work for it as well.
The biggest disappointment was when I found out that I had two Toxic Rain MTX and applied to both gems. Then, I checked Path of Building again and realized I needed to swap to Caustic Arrow (and I don't have an MTX for it) 🤣
hahaha, sometimes i will play a build purely for the MTX O_o
just swipe
Nice guide. Tried leveling with your pob and it was smoother than i thought it would be. The only thing that i changed and was a good quality of life addition was blink arrow cooldown recovery bow mastery.
Hopefully we will all get transfigured ca in first lab.
Worst case we can run merciless lab and dump a bunch of level 1 gems there. We can use it to rapidly level gems there afaik
How do you think this will be for bossing? I can't pick between this and EA, but want to kill some Ubers
Im a HH enjoyer. You think I can go full phys for all the added damages from hh or is an elemental bow strictly better. Also you see a way transferring this to mf. I played CA MF last league and it was pretty good just the single target sucked and that hh didn’t provide any damages. Cheers
Would this be fairly viable to start in ssf?
Hi Pal, huge fan here, i have this question for you; do you think its doable to start league your tornado shot frenzy charge stacker Slayer guide from last league ? Or start it Lightning Arrow then convert ?
that build is dead cause kaoms got nerfed
does precise technique help?
what to check in the POB to see damage scaling?
Can we get a full item list? im not that good at crafting items or jewels and would be very happy to have a list of items that i can somewhat work towards to
Anyone Got a fitting loot filter for this build? League start wise
May I suggest a 2nd channel where you can upload 6h of leveling gameplay and stuff like this?
Thanks for the build! I will enjoy it 😊
Is quill rain good for this build ?
Is there going to be an endgame pob?
Hi i'm new to the game, and i was asking myself wich bandit to kill or not
why Withering Step if you have wither ascendancy?
Frenzy+Manaforged Arrows and how it`s should to work?!
can we also include the low tolerance penance mark stuff in this build? some say this will be OP
The thing with penance mark is that you´d have to go for the other ascendancy thingy which only has 3 good notables we might use. Very high opportunity cost since you´d have to drop asenaths or despair or find another +1 curse somewhere. Another thing is you cant use tinctures so you´d be stuck with darkscorn due to no "all damage can poison".
any updates on POB ? :}
Great guide but what do we do with the bandits?
it's almost always kill all
Hey! I started the last league with your Hexblast Mine, it was really fun to play and fun to gear! But mine play style kills my wrists at this age, so I was looking into totem builds. And TADA! You have a build for us this league too!
I did a few test runs of different non-meta builds(I like meta builds but EA, SRS, and ignite all got stale for me) and this Poison Caustic Arrow build is one of the smoothest, most fun experiences I had. I might go as far as to say this feels better than toxic rain, and EA. Minimal passive respec, visually clean and fun, faster damage output, decently tanky for a totem build. The only downside is gearing is a bit harder than TR, EA but I find it not a huge deal if you play trade league.
For a few people who are curious, yes you can actually use 2L CA all the way from the start. I did have a 3L Toxic Rain totem set up but I didn't use it except for a boss fight or tougher rares. self attack 2L(preferably 3L) CA is enough to handle most of the situations. Mid act 4 and beyond, having 2 4L set ups(one for totem CA, one for self attack CA) speeds up early game progression. You can melt pretty much everything within a sec self attacking with no gear. So if you're tired of TR, or don't like how slow TR is just use CA from the get go. Not a big deal.
With totem nodes invested(placement speed especially), having some attack speed, you can get rid of self attack part. OR the other way, you can go self attack route only using totem for bosses. Poison CA is that solid. CUDOS to Palsteron for finding out this fun build! And I did the test run with, obviously, normal CA gem. AND with no tincture(all damage CAN poison). So you can only imagine how smooth this build's gonna feel once the league actually starts and you have all the new stuff.
can i lvl as a duelist with those gems up to lvl 28 as well before switching to EA champion, i find the spectral throw way so annoying and bad, was enjoying CA a lot, maybe i can level with the EA campion tree and use the skills from that POB (new player)^^
any leveling filter?
So you want to switch to the new CA gem directly after first lab / lvl 38? Do we know how big the chance is to get the right gem in a lab run? With this Setup you have to run the lab at least twice...
Normal caustic is perfectly fine and since late you only run 1 caustic you are fine with just one trans gem
Hi, is Precise technique good to take early on?
If you have the accuracy, it should be good after you transition to CA and before you start scaling too much poison. You don't care about crit so it seems like not much downside
Our lord and saviour, Ballisteron
And youre not using caustic Arrow? Any updates for peepz who are new to this buold.
I feel like only thing at league launch in first town I see is rangers :D
pretty sure the weapon can be any rarity for the vendor recipe, only the belt rarity matters ill check real quick
im fairly new to POE and trying to follow this guide but what is oathe of the maji ive never seen this before ? and how do u unlock it
Thats this league contents
its from the league mechanic, when you go into the viridian forest there are 3 possible npcs you get to talk to and you will get a new league Ascendancy tree that Palestron showed.
There's now on hit toxic rain too
Why do you remove the Life Mastery "Skills Cost Life instead of 30% of Mana Cost" in AfterActs?
Lifetap Support
any update on this build, about gear, ...
what about non ballista and early tornado shot transition maybe?
Just go la like 50% of the pop if the point is to go ts
Do this build have late version with cap poison damage?
Easily.
were is the EndGame POB ?
Am I dumb or the POB is incomplete? I don't see any items or skills after A4. I want to league start this!
there is more than 1 tree, the button is at the bottom of the pob screen
Where do you get the added chaos gem? It sounded like you said "you should definitely do Lab Request" but that clearly isnt right.
Pretty sure he meant the library quest of Siosa in Act 3
Why projectile damage doesn't apply to the poison? I thought you where scaling the hit to increase poison damage.
This is how the damage is calculated in poe, for now ignoring all reduction and avoidance, when enemy is hit, the flat damage is recorded. This flat damage is then used to calculate ailments, and hit damage separately. So the proj damage increases the HIT part, having no effect on the ailment part, and ailment damage increases the poison part, not the hit part. For example, the unbound ailment support gem, makes hit damage 80% less, only reduces the hit damage, but gives more damage on ailments. Since most ailment builds don’t care about the hit part, it’s a pretty good support gem to use.
@@Kevin4693 Thanks captain. So every single flat damage increase, with that tincture, would be effective, but not generic, elemental or projectile % damage?
@@lordempalator Yes, poe damage has “tags”, if you wanna increase your damage, you need to match at least one tag. Poison has “ailment, dot, chaos” tags, so increase ailment damage, dot and chaos damage will increase its damage. GENERIC damage will tho, “you deal x% increased damage” increases all damage you deal (that is, not minions). Another ailment like ignite, is fire damage over time, thus it has “elemental, fire” tag, in this case elemental damage and fire damage will increase the ignite damage.
@@lordempalator increasing flat damage means the recorded base damage is higher, thus also increase both hit part and ailment part after all the amplifications.
Can i replace the Caustic Arrow of Poison with the new Toxic Rain of Sporebrust ?
no. These do not scale the same way. toxic rain will scale on duration, and attack speed. You are scaling the hit with this. It would do something but, would not be the most efficient way to scale TR.
@@PhirstPlays i thought they kinda work the same ways now
@@beansantino as an extremely short explanation, you are shotgunning a hit with this. Shotgunning TR with the poison TR will involve gems and area manipulation that aren't in this build. In short you can do this but it won't be the most efficient way to play it.
Loot filter?
can this build do well in Expedition?
should be great for that i'd think
Dude, now I have a problem choosing my league starter. CA ballista or Guardian SRS…..?
Me too. I love pathfinder and toxic rain but guardian is ez mode and also tanky due to the big guy taking 20% of your hit damage on you. Plus you don’t have to worry about totems dying.
So hard to choose as both sound good
@@Rybread84 I am leaning towards league starting Guardian SRS and then switching over to potentially this build if it turns out to be really good for endgame, too.
I'll prob start with this cuzz i have a cool TR mtx lol
this is a caustic arrow build though, lol. you'll only use TR for a few acts while levelling.
Thanks Pal. I think I'm go with this and try get Void Stones and do lab a bit. Get those few gems for Jugg and then level that.
So many cool builds to put together lots of FOMO I think from a lot of players this league lol.
is this CA going to the maxroll?
This is an untested build, he won't put it on Maxroll until he's sure it's viable and working correctly
@@diaboliquedia4300 eh? this is definitely tested. how much better it is with the transfigured gem we'll see, but its a buff for sure. the build worked well without it.
Why no pierce on a tree? Does it work bad?
eff yeah
There is no items in the pob?
This video was made to showcase leveling until uberlab, so i guess until that point the pob notes are more than enough to what u need as for gear, after that the build specific guide in video notes covers gear prog
Would it feel entirely awful to just use caustic arrow and ignore toxic rain? I have an unreasonable hatred for levelling with a different skill 😂
It wouldn't feel entirely awful at all, caustic arrow is still good, it's just toxic rain is better for that portion of leveling. You'll be a bit slower, but very much doable.
You still want Toxic Rain Ballista for single target. Hit based CA ballista will probably feel bad before you get a lot of overlap at lvl 38
I was league starting with my guy Aero.. This build has me cheating on my camp. Fkn did it to me again! There are just SO many ways to problem solve with this build. Even for an average player like myself, with tinctures, and the ability to get poison cap so easy, The Flask power with this ascendency, the up time with dmg, there is just to much to ignore.
Also, Aer0 is league starting my FAVORITE build that he has made to date lol.. So its a sweet and sour feeling to not be league starting that with him. But this build is impossible for me notto play.
poisonous concoction is another option for leveling this build. absolutely clowns on the campaign in conjunction with plague bearer but falls off pretty hard after you run out of life flask upgrades. trees are similar but probably want to do a minor respec in early yellow maps once you find a useable bow.
Last time I wanted to play this build covenant was 10 div xdd
same
That's not a lot... For a league starter maybe, but still
well if u get the tincture the replica one will be just as good (if its lvl 29 added cold), and u can go Hyrii ( not cheaper usually) or even dendrobate. Just know the extra duration part is just pob boost but the increased damage is good
@@ShaunhanM keep in mind the replica one has an insane ES cost
cheeeesr!!!! i love causteic arrow but POISON VERSION IS SO COOL FOR TWINK LEVELING MEMES :) and an seriosuly interesting endgame swap ill need cause man ytes hahaha HOWEVER IM SO GLAD THEY ACTUALY GAVE A TOXIC RAIN POISON VERSION TOO!!! now i know hit poison CA is insaneeeeeee buuuuuuuuut tr poison is viable now! AND TINCTURES MEAN CRAZY ALL POISON FLAT SCALLING YEP still dont know if a flat bow is better then a +3 bow but i THINK it is cheeeeeers
"Now we can play for 8-10 hours without completely screewing up our sleep rythm" yeah, going to bed at 6 in the morning is not completely screwing up mh sleep rythm...
still hoping for a maxroll guide
Palsteron is a maxroll creator and he basically pioneered the build so it’s likely he will make a guide on maxroll about this build.
He said he doesnt have the time anymore so if it still works next league you can expect a guide then
A B S O L U T E B A N G E R
Looks to be a very solid build for league start. But after playing EA and freezing pulse totems several leagues, I know it's not my taste and stay away from it.
I prefer self casting else I find no joy playing PoE even if totems are easy mode
My first ever first comment! Going for this build for my leaguestarter, hyped :)
Bro... People love to put a long stream on in the background with commentary! Upload that shit. Then make smaller cuts to focus on parts if you need.
