After getting more and more depressed and roughly 2,000 divs I finally hit all the affixes I wanted on this bow, and I have chain now!

I was seriously about to give up and really was going to settle on t3 flat phys if I did hit it but I hit t1 just now this morning!

I really wanted a source of chain besides the gem which nukes your damage and this bow was my best bet. I also really wanted attack speed which allows me to whip around and do 180s really fast even though the level of that mod is laughibly low so the whittles would need sinistral erasures....

I started with buying a 3-socket guardian level 82 bow, from there I needed to fracture either surpass or crit, this took most of my divs besides the whittles as I kept missing... it was worth the wait though as I did hit it on a 5% crit chance. Then after that I just rolled with greater chaos orbs and hit surpass, then slammed on a junk mod and ias. I used the essence to roll off the junk mod and hit so now have extra cold damage. Then I wanted to use an omen of light to secure one of the last two mods, hit t1 ipd off one omen! Afterwards, I kept using whittles and erasures until I got another physical prefix but kept getting garbage, until this morning.. I happened to hitting freaking t1 baby! My dream bow is now complete, before I was one shotting basically everything but now my heralds of ices will proc way more often and my clear is gonna be through the roof.

There's a cheap lineage gem called Dominus Grasp that increase chain and does not decrease damage.

Are you using ice shot or LA?
