Far Shot is an indirect buff to Chain. It means if you have high projectile speed and chain your chaining attacks will do MORE damage. You can still use Point Blank it's just that you need Chain and a high projectile speed (think +100% or more) so that far shot will ALSO kick in.
This is what I discovered last league because I played a lot of deadeye builds while everyone else said she was useless. Also, Karui Ward is nearly BiS for Deadeye so get one of those if you want the true experience with this ascendancy. Oh yeah Edict of Spite is so good on a deadeye that u can practically clear with it. It's like a vaal skill. Last edited by BearCares#6660 on Feb 26, 2018, 6:15:14 AM

" ??? How does even projectile speed affect Far Shot? Unless projectile travels further enough you will get nothing from Far Shot. Whenever it does it in 0,5 second or 0,2 second doesn't matter. And how does Chain affect Far Shot? ??? Sir, I'm really confus now. Its either I don't understand what you mean, or what you mean is just false. Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.
Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge. | |
" Your chaining projectiles will travel farther and therefore hit more targets. Once you get your projectile speed high enough, it will start to even bounce to off screen enemies. I think a lot of people don't get high enough projectile speed to see how good chain can be because they hate seeing they are doing so much less damage. But as I was mentioning the MORE damage from Far shot serves as a counter weight to the the damage reduction from a chain gem. |

" if projectile chain does it reset the amount of distance that this projectile traveled? |
|
" No. Point blank would be completely out of control if it did. |

" Makes sense. In that case Far Shot may be useful But "common sense" sometimes means nothing in PoE :P Is there any official statement about this? "War's over, soldier. You just don't know it yet. Everybody lost." Last edited by Nishrek#6401 on Feb 26, 2018, 7:14:48 AM

Why some here keep bringing stupid magma orb.
Like deadeyes will be stuck with one build (magma), this is not build diversity. Imo farshot is dogshit, with the new bosses arenas you can t really trigger it because they are way too tiny. 30% more damage for what? Without it, a non ascended ranged can also 1 shot the whole screen and offcreen too. So farshot is just overkill if you ever have the chance to trigger it. Unlike pathfinder who can do everything from caster to melee, deadeyes will be stuck for bow/wander. But even for that, a pathfinder with active flasks will deal more damage and have same amount of proj and more. The class have a whole nod dedicated to crit but only into physical crit and there is nothing else to grant deadeyes an advantage over assassin. Shit class even revamped.

I concede that the class was better BEFORE the revamp. Return proj was an excellent skill to take. You could pierce nearby enemies, criting them, and then the return proj would hit something behind the first enemy and return and chain off of that. But they took that away for some reason. Oh well.
I had a DoT deadeye with tornado shot and death's opus and + 1 arrow. It was like l.o.l. So much damage. I was on a six link Gruthgul's Pelt or whatever it is with 96% increase phys damage on it. |

Help will be appreciated |
