Might be good for clearing the trash but I think that gem setup is awful for Atziri. You're basically giving her a Lightning Coil to wear during the fight.

Pref GGGGBB setup for that.

The PTL WED thing is cute but with reduced leech values in 2.0 I don't even care to use it.

Yep. That's why i'm curious, why Neversink tells that TS+GMP+FA+PPAD+PTL is best for Atziri. Just can't get his idea.
It really looks like giving her a 50% buffed Lightning Coil.
Not even Atziri, but even a high hp and elem res rare monsters are a real PAIN.
I think it would be better to replace PTL with Slower proj or Increased crit chance.

there was time at beginning of 2.0. when many ppl claimed PtL+WED bis combination. Because it rises toolpit's number the most and (my guess) people thought that it applies shock every 8 out 10 shoots. So not only biggest toolpit but actually biggest toolipit times one and half.

(yup I have my small satisfacion now, mister "there's everything wrong with your setup" ;p)

Kinda weird he would put that in the first place I guess.

What would you replace WED-PtL with?

BB for PCoC or ICS + ICD if more physical focused
BR for ICD or PCoC or ICS + Added Fire if you want more phys and some elemental
GB for ICD or PCoC or ICS + Pierce if Drillneck

Etc etc

Generic links since no gear = no context = blindest guessing game NA

108 Points - We're looting the Duelist area! Lots of HP and survival right there

FROM THE FIRST PAGE

this link is broken, any have a new one

Go dmg dammit, you're ranger not m1 abrams, you're supposed to be squsihy. Take all these beautyfull damage nodes that are around you, and sockets too and put there even more damage, seriously.
If you play HC forget about above tho.

("I've reached RT node but tree ends here, what now?")

HI im new .. and i have a question :) i will play with lihgtning arrow .. so its the same skill tree ? and i need the same gem setup like u with tornado ?

Yes, skill tree remains the same.
Take "Spirit void" passive and you will have enough mana sustain.
Gem setup with LA may be different from TS. LA benefits a lot from weapon elemental damage, while TS is better done pure physical imo (read the above discussion).

This could just be some left over text from the pre-2.0 version of the build guide. PTL was not suggested before 2.0. Instead the suggested best setup for Atziri was TS (which was focused on physical with heralds and auras for some elemental damage) for crowd control and Puncture for single monster and the Atziri final battle (to avoid the reflect Atziri).

Tree is the same. But if you plan to use LA intensively, you may want to overlook Voltaxis Rift bow and go elemental archer. Tree remains the same for it, you just dont learn physical damage nodes.

LA has higher manacost than TS, while dealing less physical damage. You will need higher leech values to sustain it and/or mana gain on hit. Spirit Void cluster is great there.


Personally, i use LA gem (with PtL for 100% convert) for physical reflect maps. It has far from optimal setup, but still oneshot packs and allows me to run maps i would skip otherwise.
