↖ Step 1: Finding the Right Base

The first step is to find a Spine Bow on the trade website with at least a tier 4 percentage increase in physical damage and plus two accuracy rating fractured mod. It's essential to start with a good base to ensure the bow's final stats are worth the investment.

↖ Step 2: Quality is Key

Make sure the bow has at least 20% quality. You can use perfect fossils in combination with chaotic resonators to increase it to 30% if you're willing to invest a bit more.

↖ Step 3: Essences of Contempt

Use Essences of Contempt until you hit either a good percentage increase in physical damage, attack speed, or critical strike chance mods, and ensure that you have an open prefix. If you hit a high percentage increase in physical damage roll, check the suffixes. If you have a suffix that gives you either attack speed or crit chance, craft the other mod onto the item. In this case, if you have a decent attack speed mod, craft strength, and intelligence plus a critical strike chance onto the item, you're done.

↖ Step 4: Suffixes and Prefixes

If your suffixes are bad and you have an open suffix, you can craft prefixes that cannot be changed, which will cost you two divine orbs, and use an orb of scouring. Afterward, you can craft attack speed, strength, intelligence, and percentage increase critical strike chance onto the item. If your suffixes are bad and you have no open suffix or you don't have the currency for the previous method, hold onto the bow until you have more currency to invest.

↖ Step 5: Six Linking

Step 5 is to six-link the bow, get a good crucible tree on it, and perhaps use an exalted orb on it. This step can be costly, so ensure you have the necessary currency and that the bow is worth the investment.

↖ The Final Result

After following these steps, we have managed to craft a bow that has 600+ physical DPS, 1.5 attacks per second, 6.5% critical strike chance, and a 24% increase in projectile speed. Not bad for Poe Currency budget-friendly craft!

↖ Conclusion

Crafting a physical damage bow on a budget is not an impossible task. With a bit of luck and patience, you can create a powerful weapon for your character. Remember to start with a good base, prioritize quality, and use essences to hit good mods. Crafting can be a bit daunting, but with this guide, you should be well on your way to creating a formidable bow for your character.
