[3.0] NeverSink's ♣ INDEPTH Tornado&Archer Guide ♣ Beginner friendly ♣ Rapid clear ♣ All bosses

Could you take a look at me and tell me what i should be upgrading? Appreciate it. I can't even seem to do Act 4 without dying at level 81.

I've been using this build. Char is at 61. But I have 1.9k health and I'm getting oneshotted in A3 Merciless. What should I do to get more defense? I've been using the leveling skilltree.

Can I get some help here? I don't feel like my Tornado Shot ranger is as strong as it should be at level 84. I can't even finish Merc Lab on my own and I don't feel like I'm strong enough for normal T9+ maps. I read comments on here that say they have DPS of 100k+. When I look at my ingame DPS, my Tornado Shot only shows 3.8k with Hatred and Herald of Ash on. I think it goes up to 7k when I am fully buffed. Also, according to my in-game death count, I've died 300+ times already. Did I mess up by going Raider? I was level 70+ before I found this guide and I don't feel like rerolling.

The main problem is your bow. Go to poe.trade, search for Lioneye's Glare, max price 1 chaos and sort by dps. That alone should give you at least 5x more dps.

Also buy a cheap 6-link body armour. With 20 chaos, you can buy corrupted body armor with ~90 life and ~50% random resists. Search with R-G-G-G-G-B links, since you can't chrome them later. It takes a while for someone to sell that particular body armor, but it's worth it.

Link Tornado Shot with Physical to Lightning, Weapon Elemental Damage, Physical Projectile Attack Damage, Faster Attacks and Greater Multiple Projectiles. This should give you nice damage boost over 4-link setup.

Buy Atziri's Promise, it costs 1 fusing now. Also use other utility flask. Test what works.

Try to get 65, preferably 75+ life to each slot wherever it's possible. Like rings, amulet and belt at least.

Hm, about the body armor, do you mean ~90 life and just 1 resist mod? I will lose a lot of my resist stats if I replace the armor since the current one is triple resist. And I will lose a lot of evasion points. Besides, the cheapest I see on poe.trade with just 1 resist mod and life mod is 1 ex o_o

It had two resists, but small ones. I meant the combined value. You need to wait for the seller to come online. Search the body armor and then click "Click here to perform this search in Live mode and be instantly notified when new items matching your criteria are posted." and patiently wait.

Alternatively you could settle for 5-link for a while. Right this moment someone is selling corrupted 5-link (R-G-G-G-B) for 3 chaos. It has 666 evasion, 94 life, 84% various resists.

Did you upgrade your amulet? There's lots of room for resists there. For 3 chaos, someone is selling an amulet with 58 life (actually 73 since it has +30 strenght too) and 70% various resists (and also some crit multiplier, but let's get that life as high as possible with capped resists first).

Ahh, damnit, I didn't realize poe.trade has a setting to filter by online/offline. I ended up buying this for I think like 30c

I took your advice about the Lionseye Glare bow. My tooltip DPS is FINALLY 5 digits!! It went from 3k to 20k.

Although I lost some resist with the chest piece I ended up finding this ring to make up for some of the resist I lost:

As for the amulet, I need to keep that on, otherwise I can't use my lvl 19 Assassins Mark, lvl 18 Curse on Hit Support, and lvl 19 Increased Critical Strike support. I've also had use a skill point on +30 INT node.

Do I level up every single skill gem I have? I've kept my CWDT, Immortal Call, and Ice Golem at level 1. And should I prioritize increasing the quality of every single skill gem I have?

My actual Bow, Should i try to link it? (minimum 5L)


A better one with 1.3 APS , 8% crit and 320 pDPS costs about 5 Ex, not sure if its worth it to buy a new one...

Thank u

Is windripper tornado still viable? Does anyone have a tree for it?

That was a quick solution for your problem. Reach of The Council is very nice bow, but it costs at least couple exalts. I found it very difficult to determine whether rare Harbinger bow is better than Lioneye without actually buying it, so I can't recommend buying one. A Harbinger with better dps than 1 chaos Lioneye costs a lot.

I like that ring, nice life and resists. The upgrade you're looking for is that same ring but with flat physical damage to attacks. It scales wonderfully with this build. Of course it costs a lot.

First of all, don't level gems with intelligence and strength requirements too much. The upside is getting slightly better skill and downside is gimping your gear since you now need to get +str and +int on it. Finding a good amulet without +30 int is a lot easier than finding that same amulet with +30 int.

That being said, it's easiest to get +int on amulet and rings, since those slots don't have requirements. If you get +int on boots or gloves, those need +int to wear and are energy shield based (instead of evasion, which you want). Strength is quite easy to get on belt and since you get some life from strength, it's not completely null stat.

You can also get +int from jewels. Try to find +damage (+physical damage, +attack speed, +physical damage with bows, etc) OR +6-7% life jewel with +int. Or alternatively if you have enough +int, get additional resists. Those are cheap.

I recommend you buy new gems. Check the int and str requirements for each level from wiki and buy accordingly. You really don't want those +30 str/int nodes in the end, so try to build around that.

About quality: don't worry about those yet. One quality costs around one chaos so it's a lot better to invest that currency to gear at this point. If you happen to find quality gem or someone sells it for low price, go for it. But don't spend too much on those.

What do you guys think about Slivertongue Bow?
