Build Overview

0.4 Introduced a change to Mirage Archer to let it scale it with Cooldown reduction and skill effect duration. This allows you to have an automated detonator setup on bosses just by hitting you dodge roll. Stormblast Bolts is a skill that fire projectiles into the air and they land as bolts on the ground. They do no damage until you hit it with a detonator skill. This skill is basically balanced around you having to switch to detonator and it has very strong numbers because of this fact. When you have an automated detonator skill you pretty much double the effective DPS of this skill. At level 20 Stormblast Boltsfires 3 projectiles and they explode for 470% damage leech making it effectively a 1410 skill + the damage the original projectiles do when they land. 0.4 also introduced a new buff called Eternal Rage this costs 100 spirit which is huge but constantly regenerates your rage. This combined with Berserk and 4 nodes for max rage on your tree gives you a massive 74% more damage that you did not have access to before this league. On top of that a level 20 Trinity gives you 55% more damage at the cost of another 100 Spirit. Trinity requires you to do equal damage which is easily solved by Painter's Servant. This boosts the damage of the normally weak Galvanic Shards and Herald of Thunder combination to the DPS threshold to be able to blast maps very early. There is also a downside of Berserk where you lose life and you need both Vitality I and Vitality II to offset it. Thats a total of 30 + 100 + 100 + 30 + 40 + 20 spirit just for the build to work. Luckily going tactician gives you the node A Solid Plan which says 50% less reservation costs for persistent buffs which allows us to stack 200 ish spirit and fit everything we want into the build.

Changes

This is the new 3 step process that will guide you through the endgame on the crit version of the build. You should start this build after you have about 15-20 Divines. GGG kind of messed up our original build with the Olroth's Resolve nerf and didn't tell anyone. So I have redesigned the build from the ground up.

POB: https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/1dc96

This new version is based off Double Vision unique crossbow. You want to buy one with level 18 or 19 gemini surge. and at least 4/4 on the bottom.

You need to upgrade this through Runeforging.

The Gemini Surge allows us to do several things. First it you Blind IIeverything you hit giving you change to evade. Second the blind activate Blindside on your Galvanic Shards. Next we use Oisín's Oath on the surge to leech mana that fixes all our mana issues as well as letting us use The Greatwolf's Rune of Willpower to increase our max hits.

The helm is for spirit to fit all your aura

Main stats on your amulet is +3 to projectile skills, Crit chance or crit damage, life and whatever other attributes or resist you can get. If you want to spend more get rarity it will help you farm. The annoint for the amulet is Melancholy , Envy and Fear

Rings: you want to get 2 flat damage on rings to start there were plenty on trade for about 2 divs. Get life! resistance and stats. if you want to spend more then get rarity.

Morior Invictus is your chest piece of choice. Get spirit and all elemental resistance to help you cap. The 3rd one can be whatever u want. Life, attributes, global defenses, if cheap even mana is okay because part of your damage is taken from mana.

Gloves: Painters servant now you can get anything that's 9/9/9 for cheap

Boots: Movement speed, attributes, resistance

Jewels. You can use liquid despair (20 ex) to put crit hit chance on any jewel's suffix. So all you need to do is buy one with 2 good prefixes and use the emotion.

Undying Hate (amanamu) is only for tankiness and nothing else. The number doesnt matter, the tribute doesnt matter nothing matters. Just Amanamu

Breath of the Mountains can give you power charges when you take damage from cold or physical and Catalysis turns into cold. Its doesn't have high uptime but sometimes it can give you 20% more damage for a bit.
