"Yeah, without harvest crafting I don't think you can craft stuff like 6x t1 amulets anymore, for the available resources your gear is as min maxed as it comes. Idk if projectile medium cluster beats the chaos one for pure damage after the nerfs to chaos multi on them to 5%. But for QoL like life on kill and mana regen I guess your setup is better, projectile nodes are pure damage that's it. HH can give you some defensive buffs but offensive buffs will be wasted, I don't think mobs have anything to buff chaos dot, it's usually stuff like crit or phys as extra so it works for stuff like tornado shot or BV but not for dots. | |

I'm loving this build but I seem to be having problems with Sister Cassia blight. I haven't had any issues with blight on the other characters I've played. For example my Cyclone melee characters did really well against blight monsters. I thought this character range CA would do even better. So I think I must be doing something wrong. I always use Freezebolt Towers, (usually getting 2 towers) maybe that's it? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
I'm just running the vanilla skill tree except I put in a watcher's eye jewel to make the character immune to bleeding.

" Thank you much for the response. I guess I should clarify, I don't have issues mapping not even T16 maps or anything. Unless others are failing blights say about 30% of the time or so. I think that I'm doing something wrong in the way I play blight encounters or perhaps my Freezebolt towers are suboptimal or something. It seems when I do fail the blight it is just barely usually. I mean about half of the blight monster sources are done spawning monsters and I get those treasure boxes. Just brainstorming here, are folks using Toxic rain sometimes on blight or something because I don'e use Toxic Rain.

"Since this build doesn't have single target damage that much, if you spawn a boss you should probably build more towers on a lane, check for any immunity and build fire / lightning depending which one boss isn't immune to, then empower next to it, then I usually put a scout tower behind with some mobs to occupy it, and freeze / paralyze towers only as a last line of defense. If you complete half the boxes and then it fails it's probably the bosses, as they're pretty beefy. If they spawn very close to the pump, it's kinda screwed, but otherwise try to focus on building more stuff on boss lanes, trash mobs you can clear up easily, bosses not so. | |
" Yes, you hit the nail on the head! It is the boss at the end that I can't kill before he destroys the pump. I do put my freezebolt towers near the pump as a last line of defense. Or are you suggesting I put a different kind of tower on my rings? How do I tell what lane a boss has been spawned on? Thank you so much!

"Boss spawning portals have a bigger swirly outline than normal portals. They light up when they activate so you can search where that lane is when it activates. The boss itself will have an orange-blob octopus like icon on the minimap as it walks. For towers, I think arc, meteor / flamethrower or scout are the best.

Would you recommend this build for a new player in 3.15? If not what ranger builds would you recommend?
