Build Overview

The build revolves around Plaguefinger, which makes all our damage from HITS contribute to poison magnitude, meaning that we need a LOT of flat and increased damage on our gear, to get the biggest possible poisons.

Get high flat damage crossbow, flat damage in rings, preferably some % increased lightning damage, to scale the flat damage and the fact that Plasma Blast converts 80% of phys into lightning.

Galvanic Shards will be your mail clear, with a little help from Herald of Thunder and Herald of Plague to help us spread poisons off-screen for a very fun and satisfying playstyle.

Make sure that you have 100% chance to poison on the skills!

Strengths and Weaknesses

  • Fast clear
  • Strong Bossing
  • VERY high survivability
  • DOT playstyle may not be for everyone
  • Can get expensive to see great results

1. Plaguefinger core piece of the build, get one with 2 sockets and insert 2 Courtesan Mannan's Rune of Cruelty for more magnitude, also try to get as high as possible chance to poison on the gloves.

2. Crossbow, try to get a high flast ele damage crossbow, with +6 to all attack skills, and high crit! It's important to get the crit on the bow, because if we get a crit, it's gonna do more damage. socket Farrul's Rune of the Hunt

3. Rigs - get rings with a lot of flat ele/phys/increased lightning damage, and for the suffixes, resistances, attributes and resistances, based on what you're missing.

4. Belt - get resistances, attributes, life,

5. Boots - High ES/Evasion hybrid base, with movement speed, deflection, and res. a 2 socket one would be BIS. if you can't afford it, get a 1 socket one and socket Greater Iron Runex2.

11. Sanguis Heroum i would recommend the most, the others are optional. also Forsaken Bangle is good for QOL
