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

I wonder if Lightning Arrow will be again viable in 2,0. Heard was buffed. I loved this skill but nerfs and Puncture/TS builds basically killed this skill.
Thanks for this guide. i have been playing for a little under 2 months now and this guide has helped me understand the basic mechanics of the game. i have followed the passive tree to a certain level and tweaked some stuff here and there. at level 76 my tooltip DPS on TS is 8253.1k.





12262.5k with hatred, herald of ash and ice.





Here are my current items,



Still trying to link my lioneye's to accomodate my Puncture links.

Other than that,
great, newbie friendly, fun and informative guide.

Crushing most maps without much difficulty, still lacking a little (12%) cold res but otherwise trucking hard. Next steps are 5l'ing chest for puncture against single targets and buffing up gem levels. Currently running HoI and Hatred, cant yet run a 3rd aura. All rares are self-found with exception of neck purchased in a trade a long time ago, flasks also found/crafted.

4,300 life, 14,4k ev (33k w/flask), 10,5k dps @ 2.6aps, 50%cc, 459%cm

That gem has been nerfed since this build was created. Max at 20/20 is now 79%.

I would say Belt and Left Side Ring (which generally leads to the other Ring too)

Some not-so-useful mods on the belt such as a minimal amount of ES and Life Regen.

Other than that, looks great!

Hello, appreciate the time spent on making such an in-depth guide - especially for someone like myself who hasn't played in a very long time. I was wondering what upgrade would be the biggest increase to my damage be:

Spoiler
If you have a few ex to spare, just upgrade to a 300+ pdps harbinger.
else:
- more resists on boots, then more offensive ring(s). I'd replace the prismatic one first.
- Belt => rustic sash with high life and res. This may be costly.
- Craft life (or WED) on quiver.

If the witches watching watches watch the same watch while you watch which witch watches which watch, they switch watches; then, the watch switching witches watch which watch you watch.
Watching witches watch watches is not for the faint of heart...
A general bow question:

I'm looking for an upgrade for my bow used with this build. With the new 2.0 patch coming in a few weeks, should I wait? I've read there's going to be some upgrades to crafting so I'm unsure if this will make a 300+ dps bow easier to attain (and cheaper).
