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

Hello, NeverSink,

Are you sure we have to kill everyone in Cruel and avoid getting the 16% more physical damage bonus by helping Oak? If yes, could you explain my why? I ask this because everyone's helping Oak in Cruel nowadays.

Thanks in advance for the great build!
(Still waiting for a Pierce version of it which's gonna be amazing, for sure.)

Hello, would 0.4 mana leech on a ring be enough to not take the nodes from the skill tree?
On 1.3 it was more than enough :)

Probably not, but just give it a shot. You'll know soon enough ;-)
It all depends on other stat's if it will be good enough, such as the amound os Phys damage you're dealing, and your max mana pool.

Hello!
If it`s possible pelase check up my gear and skilltree because i play before patch scion with cyclone and now im archer :D
I have 3x 75% res,-6% chaos res, 3.8k hp (a bit low ;/), 78lvl and i think my dmg sux...
Ofc its only my wishful thinking but i hope you spend that 2-3min for me as your young padawan :)


I try play with another helmet but in this i have awesome ms + chaos res + a bit as.
I think i switch my quiver for drillneck and try craft my bow for 5s5l (maybe chest next but i see new items with 2,6k eva + 3x res + hp so maybe one day i buy one for me...)

Its my skilltree (srsly - almost total random :D sorry for fu* your build... :D):

I know i need more int but i think i bust that stat from new jewellery for max gems.

Thx for watching and sorry for my eng!

Hey guys,

Brilliant! Thanks, didn't see. Must have updated it within 12hours.

What do you guys think about this as a defensive progression build based exactly on his lvl 93 build for hardcore?

[30 point build]
30-point-defensive-build


[60 point build]
60-point-defensive-build

Then after that you would head under the duelist area for the HP nodes, because I guess at this point you would be approaching about merciless? Once that's all done, then just stack damage/crit.

I haven't played in like 2 years but does this seem reasonable? It loads you up early with a bunch of HP, dodge, mana leech, frenzy charges a jewel slot then positions you for even more HP and survivability.

---

Also what's the deal with the new jewel rewards. In normal you get access to one that gives +50 armor, 10% physical damage vs 20 dex with 6% res all. Is this a jewel you would be replacing pretty quick? I chose the dex/resist one but I think it might have been a mistake because physical dmg is really important on this build?

No point re-rolling over this right, since it would likely be replaced mid game?

---

Lastly, thoughts on Herald of Ice vs Ash for HC? You can pick it around level 18 or something. I chose Ice but now I'm wondering if Ash is a better choice for HC.

I actually use both heralds, its 50% mana reserved but if you have in eq mana/hit and tornado you can spam all time :D
Hmm i switch dex and res for dmg and its good choise. Ofc if you have full res in eq/points.

What do you mean by switch? You can switch that jewel reward at the NPC? I'm just wondering if I should re-roll to pick the armor/dmg one instead, or if it's not really important because by like lvl 50+ you'd certainly replace either one of those jewels?
