Anyone who can do the DoT mod on Warbands?

Hello guys, I've been playing a LA arrow up to lvl79 but been slowly getting interested of the poison arrow setups. I was thinking of respeccing for it and buying a +2 bow, lvl2 empower and lvl20 poison arrow to start with. Would this be viable or would my dmg go down too much compared to my current LA setup?

Also how's the PA for grouping? I often play with my 2 friends and I see people mostly opting for this just as a solo build..

Mostly Im interested of this because of the MF possibilities (never played a MF char before) and the versability (For example reflect maps not being a problem like they are currently for me)


a) It's difficult to know without seeing stats
b) It's most effective as a solo build but it will still contribute fairly well in parties, particularly smaller party sizes. Three-man party is fine.

As a small correction to Chronodroid's statement re: map mods: the build can still do Blood Magic and No Regen, it just means you're going to have to play a lot more carefully without Grace (BM) and run mana flasks instead of Quicksilver or Granite (NR). Imho it's not really worth the hassle unless you get 80% IIQ or better out of the map as a whole.

@Nattkrig I can but I'm not likely to be on today until 7pm EST or so.

Bought a +2 bow last night and regaled it.



Unfortunately I went through my entire stash of chromes trying to get BBBGG. I got BBRGG twice but was trying for the IIR gem rather than empower. Probably a mistake. Oh well. I will save up more chromes and try again and be happy with the first one of those two I get heh.

I'm hoping this will up my cloud DPS considerably, as well as let me leach again and allow me to craft some resistance into it.
BAAAAAAAAAAAM! :D

in case you hit BBRGG again, throw in iron grip if you don't have a lvl 2 empower.

Will do, I do have a level 1 empower but its nowhere near level 2, heh.

It sucks looking back on the excitement I had purchasing that +2 bow for 5c (to me a good deal) last night and going through all those chromes. I probably went through 250 of them. That's probably the equivalent of just purchasing an already nice BBBGG 5L +2 bow heh. Although I have no idea how many chromes to chaos in warbands right now. Oh well, you live and you learn.

I do have "3 blue sockets" master crafting but my luck is so poor when it comes to that stuff in this game that I probably owuld have gotten BBBRG and I would have been out a bunch. But, after all that I am out a bunch anyway. Was trying to play the odds and lost. :) oh well.

using vorici "at least 1 blue socket" has the best returns on getting the proper colors

You weren't super unlucky. I added your bow's stats to this calculator:
http://siveran.github.io/calc.html

Your best chance would have been using Vorici 1B which leads to an average cost of 127 chromatics. By simply spamming chromatics the average costs increase to 181.

I myself tried colouring my 6L bow RGGBBB and it took about 1500 chroms (average was 345) :)
Geeze I didn't even think about vorici's thing being AT LEAST one blue socket... meaning there can be more. Well, I'll farm up some more chrome and give it a try. Thanks for the tip!
With the absolutely ridiculous price of goldwyrms (3ex PLEASE) should I be using Sadimas and Perandus Blazon as placeholders and focus on getting Andvarius first? I have capped resists at the moment and about 140% IIR and 24 IIQ. Would rather spend the currency getting more IIR than go broke for those boots. Unless I get the boots first then transition into IIR gloves along with it. Not exactly sure where I want to go from here as I need to convert tons of currency to exalts to be able to afford any new pieces.

I'm doing a weapon swap with a culling flame totem , when I remember, on bosses for an extra 90% IIR to fill the void.
