Adds An Additional Arrow? For Science!
So when i played about a year ago i stumbled on a Unique Boradstroke that had a modifier i have never seen on a quiver before. Adds An Additional Arrow. This being the result of using a vaal orb on it. Which got me to thinking. Can this modifier roll on say a Drillneck quiver? If so it could be one of the greatest advances in GMP builds ever. I encourage you rich folks who have Drillnecks to use vaal orbs on them to try to get this modifier. For Science!

Actually I think it's better not to use gmp or lmp with additional arrows. It gives diminishing returns. I used a Death's harp and a +1 arrow quiver with chain, so chain became a 50% more damage + aoe modifier.
correct me if i'm wrong |

Either way it could be awesome, using two additional arrow modifiers you are shooting a 3 arrow basic attack and still have a potential 6 free sockets to add in whatever you like and with no negative effects of lmp.
Update: Wow i actually found one for sale online while looking up information about it. It does exist! Update2: checked the vaal page http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Vaal_Orb. It can be put on both a bow and quiver. Character name Maraucus Last edited by As1eep#0372 on Feb 22, 2015, 12:43:25 AM

Its been done, rich people vaal'd them a long time ago and still do. That's probably why the value remains the same. 7-9ex
IMO its overated..you lose the extra projectile damage from the initial 'chance to pierce%' conversion. I would still like to have it but I don't think its worth the 150ex price or whatever they cost. I prefer legacy crit-multi damage but that's if you play standard. |

The mod can roll on any quiver and any bow. It's pretty good for LLD Explosive Arrow or Poison Arrow, since you get all the benefits with no reduced damage. Also somewhat affordable with Quill Rain.

I have found that extra arrow annoying when you want a single target dps skill gem.
For example. I use a split/crit arrow build with puncture as my single target. If I was using an item with Adds Additional Arrow and I try to hit something with the puncture it can miss because the arrow naturally splits off. I bought a drillneck on standard for 3 chaos yesterday so I might vaal it for the giggles. |

It's pretty cool having a +1 arrow quiver and even cooler when you have +1 arrow on the best? quiver atm for most meta builds. Id give up the 10% pierce chance any day of the week for an extra arrow since Im already picking up the pierce cluster on tree which quite frankly is enough. Dont forget the pierce gem which is strong as fuark.
Thats just my opinion though. Is it worth the ridiculous price tag on standard? Idk I've seen some stupid shit on standard being sold for stupider prices. My +1 drillneck was the very first quiver I ever vaald. Now some 15+ quivers later ( 6 of them being drillnecks) and I still dont have a 2nd quiver with +1 arrow. So maybe if you're the type of person who uses vorici to link/socket everything then paying that price is worth it. If you're like me and you're ok with spending 16 jews and 9 fuse to 4L something than hooray for going balls deep into RNGesus' sick game. At the end of the day it's just cool to shoot 2 arrows instead of 1 and I cant wait for the leagues to merge so I can pair it with my current rangers gear. IGN: Inshiterate
So this is art? Awful lousy way to make coin |
