[2.4 Video Guide] Doomfletch Lightning Arrow, Blast Rain Raider [HC/SC]

Updated for 2.3.

The biggest change is that we can now use 8 Ascendency points which means we can use Avatar of Slaughter for a SICK overall boost to damage and mobility! The raider is looking really good this patch.

Hey Lifting,

Thanks for updating all of your guides so quickly, I'll be sure to donate again next time I'm on your channel.

Cheers!

Any thoughts on using this build but going Quartz Infusion/Avatar of the Veil instead of way of the Poacher? Any good alternate frenzy charge sources?

Thanks for the great stuff!

1. Did you change Blast Rain's gems from Added Fire Damage to Weapon Elemental Damage 3 days ago? If so why?

2. Is the reason why you use Ash over Ice because of Hatred?

Not to my knowledge? But yea Weapon elemental damage is better!

Ash is because it scales better with physical damage :)

did you really link the correct gear (bow?!). I am confused... twice split arrow gem in the gear that is linked. no LA

He says don't pay attention to the gems in the linked gear.

^ this exactly =)

ya ok I'm blind sry

What about this curse setup: Herald of Ash - Curse on Hit - Chain - Assassin's Mark. Will that not work better instead of having to use Split Arrow everytime?

Edit: I talked to somebody and he told me it wont work because herald of ash doesnt have an initial hit to proc it. if that is the case - what about herald of thunder? how much of a dps loss is it?

What is Avatar of the Slaughter? Did the Raider tree change in 2.3?

Edit: oh wait I see now, in another picture below, Avatar of the Slaughter is shown in the same spot as Avatar of Frenzy above.
