Hey there, it's your buddy Shania, and today we're diving into the Lightning Arrow Deadeye League Starter build. This build allowed me to zoom from the beach straight into tier 16 maps, tackling bosses like Eater and Exarch with ease. Let's break down this build's gear, strategy, and some essential tips to get you rolling.

 

• Lightning Arrow Deadeye
• Early Farming and Atlas Strategy
• Gearing Up
• Gear and PoB
• Atlas Strategy

 

↖ Lightning Arrow Deadeye

• Efficiency: This build is a breeze for farming, allowing smooth transitions from starter maps to high-tier content. Expect to rake in around 30-40 PoE Divines once you're fully geared and your items are sold.
• Investment: You're looking at an initial investment of about 15 Divines, but the returns are phenomenal.

 

↖ Early Farming and Atlas Strategy

• Ease of Leveling: Getting up to tier 16 maps is a walk in the park. Buy carries for Maven and Uber Elder, and you're all set for most of your Atlas completion.
• Atlas Approach: We recommend focusing on Essence and Heist nodes initially. For expeditions, the 'Oppenheimer node' makes clearing expeditions a blast. Literally.
• Delirium Strategy: We're talking about short delirium here. Pop a Delirium at the start of a map, get up to five rewards, and cancel. Simple and effective!

 

↖ Gearing Up

• Key Items: This build thrives on a few core items:
• Vol's Vision and Comb Spirit: These give you a nice Life regen, converting to Rage.
• Immortal Flesh Belt: Great for additional Life regen.
• Berserk Uptime: With around seven or eight Rage per second, you'll have Berserk (more attack damage, speed, movement speed, less damage taken) up almost all the time.

 

↖ Gear and PoB

• Standard Gear: Your usual Deadeye gear applies here. But let's talk bows. You don't need an over-the-top bow. Something in the 700-800 Elemental DPS range with some crit chance will do just fine for starters.
• Expensive Version: If you've got Divines to burn, look into getting a Lethal Pride for strength coverage, a decent bow (700-800 Elemental DPS, crit), and maybe even a Harry's Ire or a decent rare chest piece.
• Rage Mechanic Gear: Get Vol's Vision, Comb Spirit, and Immortal Flesh. This trio will keep your Rage counter happy and your Berserk up and running.

↖ Atlas Strategy

• Map Choices: We've been alternating between Mesa and Dunes. Why? The new Divine divination card - The Fortunate - drops there.
• Expedition: Don't forget the 'big boom' from Extreme Archeology for Expeditions. It changes the game entirely.
• Delirium: We are currently dipping my toes into 80% Delirium maps, and it's going pretty well. A bit more tweaking, and I'll be clearing them faster.

 

This Lightning Arrow Deadeye build has been one of my best league starters ever. If you're a bit late to the league or looking for a reliable second build, this is a solid choice. And that's it, folks! If you've got a knack for speed and efficiency, this Lightning Arrow Deadeye build is your ticket to high-tier maps and lucrative farming.
