6L gems for Toxic Rain - advice needed.
|
Hey,
I've been tinkering around with my 6L Toxic Rain gem support gems and I'm looking for an opinion. The only no-brainer is Empower, but what about the rest? I don't have high attack speed (goes up to 3.0 when vaal haste is up[haste is not up at all]), so I thought I'd have the following links for as much dps on initial hit as possible: PoB confirms that using Decay instead of Swift Affliction, for example, is more beneficial. Same goes for Vicious Proj. as the projectile damage also increased the DoT for Toxic Rain. And Decay is also getting a significant buff in 3.6.
Spoiler
Decay DoT  Swift Af. DoT  Any suggestions on how the links would be improved for a sub-optimal attack speed toxic rain build? Sitting in HO spamming alts for 4 hours straight is peak PoE gameplay. Thanks, Chris. Last edited by Ydoum#5726 on Mar 6, 2019, 4:06:08 AM Last bumped on Mar 6, 2019, 6:17:40 PM

Gems looks decent. Increased duration is also classic upgrade (I guess less effective with ID from other sources).
Btw why don´t craft attack speed on bow? |

" I'm running duration passives on the tree. I found the crafted DoT increase to be slightly more effective in the long run. I one-shot lvl 83 packs. The only scenario where I would need attack speed are boss encounters. EDIT: I sacrificed 600 total ES for some utility and extreme boost to attack speed from slipstream I also switched up some gems in my setup in order to run double withering totems for an absurdly fast wither stacks against bosses. Total DPS increased by about 100k DoT/s. I think running decay is perfectly fine, and the 3.6 buff is going to improve it even further. Sitting in HO spamming alts for 4 hours straight is peak PoE gameplay. Thanks, Chris. Last edited by Ydoum#5726 on Mar 6, 2019, 5:51:26 PM
