Path of Building – Passive Skill Tree

Path of Building is an essential third-party tool used for planning characters. It has information for the passive tree, skill gems, and gear.

Here is a link to our Path of Building for this build.

You can download the Path of Building Community Fork, which is maintained by LocalIdentity, here.

If you are not yet comfortable with using Path of Building, we highly recommend reading this Path of Building Guide.

Bloodline Ascendancy Options

None of the Bloodline Ascendancy choices stand out as must-have options.

Wild Will in Farrul’s tree grants 20 percent attack and movement speed, and prevents action speed from being reduced below 100 percent.
You will need to sacrifice gems elsewhere in your build to fit in a Raise Spectre gem, so it’s a costly tradeoff.

Awakened Gems

Some Support Gems have Awakened versions. These gems are more powerful than the standard alternatives. You should use Awakened gems whenever you can afford them, but they aren’t necessary to make the build work.

Leveling Awakened gems can be slow. If you want to level an Awakened gem quickly, you can buy Wild Brambleback beasts and use them in the Menagerie with the recipe “Increase the Level of non-Corrupted Awakened Gem by 1.” This process can save a lot of time.

Gem Setups

Increasing your gem levels is extremely important for maximizing damage, so be sure to level up your gems any time you can. You can apply quality to them using Gemcutter's Prism.

Main 6-Link (Bow)

Secondary 6-Link (Body Armour)

Manaforged Arrow Support 4-link (Gloves)

Auras (Helmet)

Automated Skills (Boots)

Movement Skills (Stick them anywhere)

Alternative Gems

During the campaign, Clarity Clarity and Grace Grace can be helpful auras. Once you get into maps their value drops and you can replace them with the setup recommended above.
