I'm at the point in the tree where it says to get frenzy charges.

What am I supposed to use to get frenzy charges to start with?

I never see any charges of any kind with my current set of skills.

I am missing something.

This is my first Ranger build, and don't really understand where the charges are supposed to be generated from to start with.

Do I use a frenzy gem or something to get them?

Do the lab :), ascend

That's the entire answer? No one else has any other suggestions?

Yes, that's the entire answer. Do the Labyrinth. Ascend. That will fix your problem. Yes, really. Yes, it's entirely passive.

Read the nodes for Raider. Read Way of the Poacher.

https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Raider

Personally, I usually go for Quartz Infusion first, but Way of the Poacher is never later than second.

If you need something between now and then, then use the Frenzy skill gem. Frenzy - GMP - Curse on Hit - Assassin's Mark.

Is there a link to the skill tree that is not a photo so that I can see the names of the links?


Thank you Unquietheart. I did mention I have never played a Ranger or Raider either for that matter.

The guide has way too many pages to browse through them all. A dozen at the start does not answer my questions and the v3.0 looks to begin around 880 or so... I did find others asking for a skill tree posted with the nodes but did not find an Official tree

He does it that way, because the tree has changed a lot recently, and anytime it changes, his old links become invalid. Whereas the picture gives you a reasonable way to pick the right nodes even if there are minor changes.

Here's a link to his 3.0 version of the tree:

Personally, I would recommend a slightly modified tree:

My version forgoes the two 4% life nodes near Thick skin, and instead takes the two nodes near Revenge of the Hunted, which offer 4% life AND 8% evasion.

Vaal Pact will be dead (at least moved and reworked) soon, sustaining @ high end maps will be more difficult

there is no point to use VP trees i guess

The beginning of the guide mentions the pierce changes for 3.0... but the final skill tree does not include the pierce passives. Are these passives not worth it?

"

Pierce Rework - Pierce is no longer random. All +%chance to pierce nodes and effects have been replaced with +pierces X targets. The new effect is much more consistent. We can also easily pick up 3-target-pierce from the skilltree. This is quite an opportunity for tornado shot.

Thanks for the guide.

Since i am a new player i don't have access yet to 6 slots gear.
What would you guys recommend?
Also it seems i messed up my skill tree a bit doing it on my own, the manapool is not that big and seems to empty pretty quickly with tornadoshot, i used fire shot until now.

Should i wait for refund or do it now?

ps : i read the leveling part of the guide but i don't really like shrapnel shot. Also i got rekt a few levels ago by izaro, hence my quest for a new build (first death actually)

Until you get a 6L chest (i recommend rare 6L first), you can use a 5L rare with hp/res, should be <2c, around level 50-68 you wanna swap your gear to endgame gear with good life and res, stats if needed, then damage mods after that.

Get more mana leech/mana on hit on higher damage somehow and the leech should be fine, i tend to use 0.8-1.2% when leveling, later drop to 0.4% only, and you should have plenty of respec points(around 20?) from the quests.

At your level, I'd build my tree differently. You've spent most of your points moving around the tree and made some inefficient purchases. Pretty much THE biggest problem I encounter while leveling is mana consumption. That Jewel socket you've taken is very inefficient, there are two others that are much easier to reach (as you build).

I also wouldn't bother with Phase Acrobatics at your level. If you want it, then maybe when you're up in the 60-70 range.

At your level, my tree would look about like this:

Note that I've taken Primal Spirit, which helps with mana consumption. Note also that Primal Spirit gives you +20 Strength and +20 Int, which means you can probably reassign the point you spent on Beef. You can also take Mana Flows if you really need it (in the Duelist section). Once you're better established you can refund those points easily and reapply them elsewhere.

Note also, that I have mana regen on many of the pieces of gear I'm wearing. (I'm not suggesting that these are GOOD pieces, but they're chosen to balance out my resists, and give me enough mana regen to operate).

In addition, I've also chosen different Jewels than you, I tend to take the ones that offer me mana regen: There's also the one I have utilized in my tree: Assassin's Haste.

Note also that the Ghoul Noose Paua Amulet came from Eleron. I specifically chose it because it was a Paua amulet with his signature mod (reduced mana cost of skills). This started as a blue amulet that I hit with an Orb of Augmentation, and then a Regal, and then added additional mana regen using Eleron's Blessing Font.

On the cusp of 1000 pages; thanks for the years of hard work keeping this tome of knowledge up-to-date Neversink & crew!

Thanks for the replies.

I did the normal and cruel Labs, and have to admit the Frenzy charges are now there. I finally hit Lv 68 so can now pretty much use most of the armor available. I have some pieces to switch to once Harbinger league ends and I get to Standard.

I have enjoyed the Ranger, I actually can't believe I've waited so long to try the class. I have never played any character with a bow, and will likely re-spec one of my Scions over to a Bow Build

After the Poacher and Avatar of the Slaughter nodes are taken, what do most others go for?

I see on your post, UnquietHeart , you mentioned the Quartz Infusion.

Anything else a good choice?
