[3.0] NeverSink's ♣ INDEPTH Tornado&Archer Guide ♣ Beginner friendly ♣ Rapid clear ♣ All bosses

Hi, im playing SSF and just today I dropped 5l evasion chest and Lioneye's Glare + got some uniques like Darkray Vectors. I love bow characters so I decided to give it a try. Not sure tho which class should I choose?
I dont really want pathfinder cus most of his strenght comes from flask which I just didnt found.
So, assassin or raider? Which one will work better with low amount of gear I got on SSF?

Also, I didnt find what ascendancy nodes should I take, anyone could help with that too?

Great guide! I was looking into the skill tree though and found you put 5 points into the claw nodes for Soul Raker, is that strictly for the Life/Mana leech?

Since this has been answered so many times I won't tell you :P

Read the guide or search for answers in the thread :)

Hi Frankenberry,

Can I use Make_Way_Villainy as my guide for Legacy league ?
Or does that build needs some explaining before I can use it.

Thanks for your great support in this thread!

I played with these two items instead of Rat's Nest and Drillneck until lvl 95




Also I had a different passive setup that looked something like this:

I also used Vaal Burning Arrow instead of Barrage for a long time (VNA nukes bosses but Barrage has a bit more utility against some bosses).

I still use those items if I feel like playing a map or two.

The Drillneck and Rat's Nest Quiver + respecc was made for boss killing.

My current passive setup is a 100% glass canon made for having fun and farming Uber Atziri / Shaper / Guardians. You will most likely not make it past level with that specc but you will have a ton of fun and do a ton of dmg.

Besides that it's a fairly standard Doomfletch Prism setup. Just scale flat added phys on items besides your bow and you will do a ton of damage.

The main idea of the build is to make TS do a lot of AoE damage. It's worth noting the build actually works quite well without insanely expensive gear (mine is probably on the expensive side).

For more info just import the character into pathofbuilder and fool around with items / passives / skills / etc.

Thanks for your quick and in-depth reply :-)

Sounds exactly what I was looking for. I'm planning to farm shaped strands till the end of the league was going for LA but TS with AOE sounds pretty sweet as well.

Will look up the trees you suggested. Thanks!

Can you update the Windripper-Tornado Skilltree's (Balanced)?
It didnt work anymore (The build you are trying to load is using an old version of the passive tree and will not work."

Would be cool! Thanks!

Im just wondering cause Im sticking with maligaro's gloves for a long time, are there any better unique DPS gloves for Death's Opus with Tornado Shot? Someone suggested me Wind of Changes, but im not sure if projectile dmg and speed outcomes high crits

Use pathofbuilder to calculate it which gloves are the best.

Also take into account the opportunity cost of using an item in a specific item slot. Also take into account which build you are using. Crit multiplier doesn't scale as well with Death's Opus as it does with other bows because Death's Opus already has a high crit multiplier (Not saying crit multi is bad stat with Death's Opus - just that i scales better with other bows).

In this case you use Maligaro Gloves. They give you crit chance, multiplier and and some attack speed but 0 hp, resist and less attack speed than a rare pair of gloves would.

So imagine you had a rare pair with 2 resists, life and crafted 12% attack speed (maybe even with a flat damage modifier) instead of Maligaro's. This means you would need less resistance on your other items. So for instance instead of having resistance on your rings you would have them on your gloves. So now you have the freedom to utilize rings with worse defensive stats and better offensive stats. So the rare pair of gloves might not be as high dps as the Maligaro gloves but if you take into account more offensive rings the rare gloves might actually be better dps.

The concept of opportunity cost goes for all item slots. It's worth thinking carefully about :)
