I can spend 400-600 div, depending on if I sell my Rakiata's (I am only going to play the PF and a flickerstrike monk). I have a +4 Vertex mask sitting in bank. I don't think a new bow is in the running with my current econ. I know there are some silly things I am overlooking. I am resistance and chaos capped.
Unless there is a problem on my end your link seems to point to a Lvl 1 ranger and not a Poisonburst PF.
I’d start with your jewels you want more gain (element) damage on your heart of the well diamond and instead of that sapphire look for an emerald diamond that gives bow damage, magnitude of poison or damaging ailments. If your crit is good looking for one that increase magnitude of ailments on critical hits final thing to boost your dps is get a headhunter belt. You’ll notice a big increase when you kill rare monsters
Same advice I've given in this post: start taking advantage of Projectile Acceleration III + Feathered Fletching, get a quiver with T1 projectile speed and +2 projectile skills (take quiver notables while at it), grab a Garukhan's Resolve and maybe upgrade your jewels / amulet and you will see a massive boost in damage output.
Id probably start with getting projectile skills on the quiver and +3 on neck.
Probably move on after that to try to get enough spirit for eternal rage and then use the lineage support that makes poisons deal damage faster per rage you have. Think its like 2% per rage. Base rage is 30. Id probably leave it at base if youre intent on rocking arakalis lust.
You can focus on amulet and a corrupted helmet with spirit for the extra spirit. So you can leave your chest piece on.
Leech btw can also be put on heralds or even wind dancer. Im not sure the damage breakdown you have on the heralds or whatever. But if youre doing heavy elemental damage you can slap on a mana leech support gem and then use the lineage gem for mana leech uses elemental instead of phyaical.
Just some suggestions. Good luck.
I got bored at this stage in the league and decided to spend many of my hard earned divines on a small project. Wouldn't it be funny to stack Energy shield for a min-level char? [https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/1a027](https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/1a027) Tabula rasa has relevant jewel mods noted on it in POB so the math actually works out since it doesn't seem to work properly in POB. second screenshot is with a lvl 29 discipline aura with 36% increased aura magnitude - I didn't wanna spend another several thousand divines on a support character, I just wanted to see how well it would work theoretically >3000 ES without aurabot is possible, however, its basically impossible in practice. As of now, there are \*18\* 2 socket uncorrupted crown of thorns left on trade - on average it takes \~11 to hit a 30% and then another 1 in 3 to get a 3 socket one. Hitting a double corrupt on said 3 socket would be better then my current one, but that's not plausible sadly. Same for the boots. Hitting a better double corrupt on the gloves and focus would likely be plausible, but I couldn't buy more bases from Finn. Grip of Kulemak 59% ES \*should\* be possible, but it already took me over 40 attempts to hit 57% so I think I'll just leave it as is. Belt I didn't find any other way besides the 25% corrupt to get ES without a level requirement - if anyone has any idea tell me. Amulet could sanctify for 19/19 but again, would require silly amounts of currency (each try is \~30 div as is with annoint + sanctify + quality). I \*think\* patient barrier should be best annoint, but correct me if I'm wrong. Total investment into this character so far is about 3000 divines, probably a bit more. further thoughts \- maximum technically possible is 3112 ES at level 2 unless I'm missing something important. POB [https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/1a02a](https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/1a02a) \- doubting this but: is it possible to get an ascendency at this low level by skipping straight to geonor with a helper? In which case it might be possible that xp penalties kicking it would allow me to ascend at lvl 2? This would allow +20% +20% (ascendency) +60% (jewel) ES, which would get me to 3218 ES (actual build) / 3732 ES (max technically possible) Did I miss anything?
I made an elemental crossbow varashta sorc this season as my starting build (goal was to exploit yoke of suffering's full potential, you can find poe ninja below, don't be fooled by the dmg tooltip, it kill ubers before they can move) and so since I was in the intel side of the tree I used my weapon swap to maximize exposure (with whispering ice) and curse magnitude. Here with some non-optimized gear I'm reaching a total of -338% res (that's -169% on bosses), meaning it's better than rakiata's. I use cursed ground support to apply the curse and icestorm (which comes with the staff) with prolonged duration and potent exposure to make the exposure last longer. This tech doesn't require much investment apart from your weapon swap and a few sockets at most so it can be plugged into many elemental builds. As it is now, it requires you to cast the spells with your weapon swap, so I use it mostly for bosses, but i might cast icestorm on bulky rares in juiced maps once in a while. If you have a skill dedicated for mapping, it'll propably better to use rakiata on it, and remove it or use another skill for bosses. Here's the poeninja: [https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/McZaatar-0907/character/Dendjala](https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/McZaatar-0907/character/Dendjala) I might make a build showcase if people are interested, it's a fun league starter build. With yoke and the electrocution node on the tree, enemies have 120% damage taken, more if they're cursed, on top of the giant res drop, plus you benefit from a lot of the "damage against enemies with ailments nodes" so that's why the tooltip is low (explosive grenades indicate 60k in game but they hit bosses for like 2M) at first I was playing with permafrost bolt with frost nexus + navira's fracture + fragmentation rounds, it was a fun combo and really strong for leveling but I couldn't scale navira's fracture damage in late game (I had command + minion nodes on my second weapon instead of the curse/exposure at the time) Hope this inspires some of you!
