[Music]: Okay, 3.25 is right around the corner, and a bunch of people have been asking me what do I plan to play and what my overall plan is. Well, if this is your first time here or you're new or returning, you'll know that for 3.25, I plan on doing a lot of Blight. I have tons of Blight videos on my YouTube channel. I've been talking about it pretty extensively. I'm really excited overall for Blight. And on top of that, you know, the whole town building mechanic. What I want to play, what I want to do, I'm really not too sure, but I have a couple of ideas. And today we're going to talk about one of those ideas. Today we're going to talk about Lightning Hit of the Spectrum or Elemental Hit of the Spectrum and my overall plans with it. Before we get into this PO what I put together, what my overall plans are with Ellie head of the spectrum, I want to put out a little bit of disclaimer. This is going to be really

important, and this is something that I'm going to make sure that hopefully you guys listen to and read or watch or listen to so you know what you're getting into. My plan for 3.25 is to leag start something quick, something fast, something that can get through the campaign with ease. I'm going to play something I am comfortable with, whether it be this or poison concoction or one of many other things. I'm going to go through the campaign as quick as I can. I'm going to get to Maps. Once I get some maps, I'm going to start progressing the Atlas. And once bladed maps are available, I'm going to start buying them and doing solely that. My plan for 3.25 is to do a combination of setting up my town or Garrison or Kings March and then jumping into bled Maps. So if I only need to do four, five, or six maps to get enough gold to get resources to get the workers going, that's my plan. And then I'm going back into blighted Maps, whatever I.

League start, whatever I start on the day of, will only be played for a couple of days. There won't be a whole ton of updates on it. I'll update how my weekend went. I'll update where I'm going with the build. But I don't know if I'm going to expand on that build or if I'm going to roll. 3.25 brings us tons and tons and tons of awesome new builds and things to play, and I'm really torn, man. I'm like a chronic reroller, bro. I don't even know what the heck I want to do, man. I honestly don't know. I can say, though, that I have tested this Elemental Hit of the Dead eye. I did manage to get two Void Stones. It took me a little bit. I am mechanically really bad. I have the Eer and Xar fight. You guys can watch those. They'll be linked in the description down below. But, you know, I liked it. I thought it was awesome. Bose feel great. Bose feel wonderful. I could see myself

staying on this. I am going to be doing a poison concoction run over on your Twitch and YouTube. If you want to watch, you could check those live. There'll either be a notification if you turn on notifications here. You'll get a notification for that. And if you follow me on Twitch, you'll get a notification about when I do that run. But overall, let's get into what's going on. I decided to first start lightning hit of the spectrum. I put together a PO. I went and tested that PO. I did an entire two Stone run, and everything went pretty smoothly. Twitch chat decided that my character was going to be called Kick Z deaths and all. I mean it's a boat character. It dies when you choose to play. Say dead ey. You understand that dead is in the name, and you will die. You are an absolute glass Cannon. I will not hide the fact that this thing has low ehp. It dies, you know it dies. You can't beat it, nothing happens. It's going to die. It's just is what it is, right? I am.

okay with that. If you're somebody that doesn't like to die a lot until you have a lot of gear, or until you do a lot of damage, please note this might not be the build for you. I also am not putting this and describing this as a build, guy, this just my plan. So if you're going to copy it, proceed with caution. Now, this character scaled really, really, really well with upgrading the bow, and that's going to be the biggest point that I'm going to be making. My PO will tell you that you need to upgrade your weapon. If you don't upgrade your weapon, you're going to have a really overall hard time. But the way I have it currently designed should hold your hand. Bows have been figured out time and time again. There's no real secret of madness to bows. It doesn't really matter which way you slice the leveling process, but it ends up becoming really, really, really smooth. The PO that I have for you now has an act one, an act two, and it will just pretty much go through all of the AXS.

and get you everything that you need to do and kind of really hold your hand. Now there are some changes in some updates like this cluster wheel being added here. There's also an RMR wheel being added over here and I can't test those pre 3.25 as they're not in the game. So I leveled slightly very Min skill different where I didn't put these points here and I went to the ACT six. And instead of putting these points here, I just started pathing towards this right away. You'll see soon too like I'll eventually take these bleed nodes here for crit chance. I put them here as far as like leveling goes and playing the character and progressing through the planner. Start with act one, go to act two, go to act four, go to act five, six, seven, eight, nine, and then eventually you'll get to basic barely any gear level 95. Level 95 is going to be ambitious. We don't know how hard the new league mechanic is going to be. We know many players will

only get to level 90 if you do start progressing. 91, 92, 95 is actually reasonable. I have it set to 95 because I plan on doing blighted maps. Blighted maps are an insane source of experience. They're an extremely safe source of experience. You could jump into a blighted map and not really worry about dying. Now a couple of things to note with Dead Eye. I originally practiced with Ricochet instead of far shot and far shot's insane. I didn't understand how good far shot was until I got stuck on either of Worlds and had to swap off a chain to far shot. Inside of bladed Maps though, there is a world where you're going to want to go Ricochet into endless Munitions if you choose to follow me on that route. But far shot into endless Munitions still be relatively good. Now in other terms and other things to note when you select where you're at in here if you're on basic barely any gear and you go to the item section make sure that you're on.

basic gear. If you swap the gear to say high-end, things might break if the tree doesn't match up in terms of the gear. I have very basic gear. I have gear without taming. Taming seems to be very good and still very good and might be relatively difficult to get. I used an extremely basic quiver for this. I do think a rare quiver will outperform the Poise prism, but for like day one hour x, this is probably going to be really good, really safe bet. It gets you a lot of resistances, gets you a lot of extra damage. You really can't go too wrong. I picked an extremely basic Le bow. This thing has 350 DPS. You will easily outscale this bow when I did my run through and I killed Eer and Exarc. My bow was 350 DPS for Eer of Worlds, and when I log in, I think the bow I have right now is only like 410 DPS or 429 L DPS. You can on a 400 heli.

DPS bow. Get two void stones. As you can see, this is solo self-found and um, yeah, I progressed on a 400 DPS bow. I really, really, really, really, really recommend picking up an Essence and slamming into your bow and finding a better bow. I found this armor while leveling in my SSF run, and I played with it, and I forgot about it. I used this back in the day with Spectral Throw. This armor is actually pretty good. It gives you a lot of resistance or a lot of life. It gives you a lot of free accuracy. It gives you a lot of free crit, both on the hit of the spectrum and artillery ballista crit. This armor comes in three different variations. I don't know which one the best one is yet. I'm going to look into it. I only remembered about it slightly before recording this video after I found it last night, so I'm going to make sure to update that. There'll be a note in the description if there's anything change or you should get a specific one.

the only thing that really changes on it is what the Beast is that's on it but I'll double check that and put a little not an update. I used tanui gloves when I was figuring this out. Tano AI are really interesting they give you adrenaline and onslot. Adrenaline is really really really good onlet's really good. It's a defensive layer it's an offensive layer I think for the price point tan oh high are going to be insane eventually though you'll like work your way off of this you'll pick up a death Rush ring you'll get gloves with like fractured Temple mod and you'll go from there. Boots very basic boots just like life resistance movement speed strength helmet same thing just in life chaos resistance resistance the fill the hle high reach truth is amulet out of control you automatically have calling strike with it you can't be beat you have precision and Mana Reserve efficiency dexterity crit multi like this amulet is just crazy and out of control until you figure out which Precision you want to.

use um I use Precision on arrogance while playing and while leveling you can use the Precision off of this. I think it's a lot better to use Precision tied to arrogance, but you know, depending on how your Mana situation is, your life situation, where you're at socket pressure, you might just use Precision off of this. The Rings very basic rings for life and resistances. The belt also extremely basic strength life chaos resistance a stigi andice because you can put an Abyssal Jewel and I put a very basic Abyssal Jewel for damage if you do go the Abyssal Jewel route until you get a head hunter. Get an Abyssal Jewel that has phasing gun kill going to be completely massive flask very basic very down to earth flask you can get updated as you go as the gear levels up. We pretty much just put some taming on taming are still going to be insane po hasn't updated taming yet um taming has 40% increased damage with hits and ailments for one of each Elemental.

ailments. So with LA hit of the spectrum, we free shock, ignite, and chill. So you get four elements. So as long as you have a really well real taming, the new taming are better than this taming. And then you know we'll experiment and see if there's other ways to increase your gear. Taming still has the elemental resistances and the chance to free shock, ignite. So that's going to be insane. You lose the elemental damage and the elemental damage with attack skills. But because the increased Elemental damage is more, taming will be better. I expect taming to be expensive. I know I don't expect to have taming on day one. They will be available throughout the weekend. And if you start a little bit late, also inside the notes section, which is really important, you should read. There's an entire section on how to get the taming, how to break it down, how to make it a little bit easier. It talks about the three rings that you can vendor together. It talks about the

div card um it the div card might not be on aall. I'm going to make a note and update this. You might need to figure out what map the atlas will tell us what map the new div card drops on, and then we can make adjustments, and we can like scry the map to what we want to do. We can set it the toxic sewer, we can do it whatever, and we can Farm as the gear progresses. We just pretty much keep a lot of the same gear. We get a high rire eventually later on. High rire is going to be expensive. It's always expensive, but it's an aspirational armor. Highr gives us a lot of suppression, a lot of damage. We can chill dexs. It's really strong, tons of evasion, and eventually we'll want to get a nice feathered Arrow quiver, eventually maybe Bose fire to attacks crit multi stuff like that, and then towards the higher end of the gear set. I didn't really go too too crazy. All I really did was slap on a Head Hunter and a

highres it's a bow build it's going to want Head Hunter. Head Hunter is what you should be aspiring towards. It's going to be your biggest upgrade, at least in my opinion. It's going to be your biggest upgrade eventually. You're going to want clusters and stuff. I don't know which way I want to go with the Clusters. I don't know how I want to build a tree for the Clusters. And I also don't know if I want to go and swap to Warden. One of the biggest reasons why this is dead eye and one of the biggest reasons it's not Warden is I haven't played with Warden. I haven't tested Warden. I know plenty of people are trying out Warden in PoE. They're working on the numbers. They're working on how it's going to perform. And I don't know. I've just been. I've been playing this game for a while, and I've seen new stuff come out and new stuff break, and I'm going with the safe.

route 100% positively the safe route. I don't want to risk going Warden and one of the noes doesn't work or something doesn't work the way I think it works. And you know overall, I just want to be safe. And I know people are probably going to copy this, and I want you guys to have a safe experience. If it turns out like 10, we find out Warden is completely crazy and crack Warden is insane. Warden is bajillions of damage immediately. Like just hop in a lab and swap to Warden. It shouldn't be too bad, especially with gold being able to Respec and regret still being able to Respec. It should be really, really, really easy to find out very quickly if Warden works, and it should be very easy to just kind of swap your ascendancy over to Warden. It shouldn't be a problem. Now, I had mentioned this, and I'll bring this up again, make sure that when you're looking at your skill tree and your items, they match down here.

and up here, otherwise, you're just going to be in for a world of pain. As far as skills go, I like personally leveling with Galvanago. I know Rain of Arrows is technically superior. I have always been a fan of Galvanic. I like the way Ganar feels, I like the way it plays. I'm not a huge Rain of Arrows fan. A lot of people like Rain of Arrows. You can play Rain of Arrows at level 12. I have it set up to literally play as Galvanic Arrow, and it pretty much walks you through things. It also gives you swaps and ideas for swaps. You could swap your Ballista Totem to a Lightning Arrow Totem if socket pressure allows it and you have the currency to do it. It talks about Precision, it talks about the Rain of Arrows swap, and then you go to Act Three. Oh, let's shut this off too because you won't have this body armor, and let's go here and shut this off too, you won't have this body armor. And then when you get to

act three the same thing there is a section for notes or a section for auras. In the notes section this will tell you about pure developments wrath haste and anger. Ey leveled with anger I think it's really good there is an argument if if your lightning are you use wrath. I really don't think you need to use wrath there is an argument for purity of elements. If you're like struggling with gear then there's an argument to use haste. If it does work out the way I think it works out there is a world where like by act for when you're grabbing this you're like grabbing this as well and this is going to be one of those things that you have to like play the character and like get the feel for it and see how you're going and then you take the two RMR nodes early you slap on like damage or damage over damage or haste and you just like go go go you know proceed with caution use your best judgment there is an act four and five lightning Arrow swap I do give

alternates to the different colors depending on what your links are. If your first four link is two green, one red, one blue, three green, one red, four green Trinity essentially I give you options for the color combination that drops. I understand that in leag sart your colors are going to be tight chromes might not be plentiful. You might not know what to do so there are different options. I don't think Trinity is going to be as good with lightning Arrow because we're losing the flat lightning. But if you have a bow that has an element and you're using anger, you could proc Trinity. If Trinity doesn't proc, then recolor your armor. You know it's a lot easier to just recolor the armor and figure out Trinity later when you get LA hit of the spectrum. We level lightning Arrow because Ellie hit of the spectrum comes out of labs. My plan is to just buy it. It'll be on trade. It'll be a couple of chaos or I will just self Farm it when I

did it in ssf. It took me 13 runs. Uh, uh. In the third lab, was that merciless? The third lab to get it, so it's farmable. It'll take you a while. I don't want to S Labs. I'm just going to buy it when I get to Maps. I'm just going to buy it. And then I have act 6 through 10, same thing. It gives you everything you need to know. And then when you get to early Maps, it gives you the stuff. Now I want to take a second and say thank you to Fub Gun. And I want to say thank you to Havoc. I didn't know about the blast rain storm rain tech it is. I had no idea that was a thing. I didn't know people were doing it. I did some research. I looked at Fub Gun's stuff. I looked at Havoc's stuff. I looked at old Grimro's stuff. I looked at things that I did. And those guys were doing stuff like this. And I thought, oh, that's really cool. That's a really cool. That's

a really, really neat swap. I watched the Havoc run where he did the four Stones, the storm rain, and it really just blew my mind. And I've seen other people do it, so I included it in here if you want to go a Mana Forge setup. But I know Fub Gun has done fantastic work. You can find him over on twitch.tv/fubgun. And you know, Havoc's doing amazing work too. You could find their information here and as to give them credit there too. But yeah, that's overall really it if you want to see how the character plays. The character here, I have like I said, I have the twoone ring or the two-stone video down below to do the typical blood aquax play. You know, the character fires, it moves, it's a little quick, it's a little hasty, you know, everything bounces, everything shoots, everything kills. Blood Aquadox is kind of whatever, nobody really cares about the blood aqux text, but I know people like watching people kill things.

with blood aqux so there you have it. As far as the character that I played, um, I got two stones in roughly about 18 hours. I am slow. I do talk to Twitch chat. I do take get up and take breaks. I do walk away from the game. I have two cats and a kid, you know, like I'm slow. I know I can't. I know I could probably cut my time down by like six or seven hours if I really sweated and tried, but I'm not going to bust my back for two stones. I know some people will. In my playthrough of this character, I did find Shadow and dust. These are another great alternative to gloves that you can use. I did pick up dark ray vectors, and like I said, I found out the ear's fostering. You can see I didn't have gear going on. I had a bow. It was 429 L DPS. This had Le hit of the spectrum returning P Trinity and Mirage Archer. You're going to say, Oh my God, you're using returning P. Why is it in

your link setup it is in the link setup. It is in the it's in the map setup. When I have the ability to put it inside of the axe, I felt that and I want to just point this out. Where is it? I felt that these combination of skills were a lot better. Uh, Mirage Archer is also insane, so like you have the opportunity to do Mirage Archer. I'll actually add another section here where I copy one of these and I add you guys in Mirage Archer, so you have the Mirage Archer set up as well, and you guys can make that decision for yourself. The gloves Precision with arrogance flame Dash to move around the helmet not very good very basic resistances in life. It had frenzy calling strike because I didn't have the amulet power charge on crit and Mana Forge Arrow. Once I get Hy's amulet, we could drop this no problem. The body armor had anger blood rage mark on hit snipers Mark and haste. We used an absurd bad belt. The Rings were okay. They could definitely be better. And then we had a

quiver that just pretty much did the job. But like I said, this was in a Solo cellon run. It took me about 18 hours to do everything, and that was playing really casual, just doing things, talking to people. I know some be like, Oh my God, you yed for 18 hours, do a map, do a map, and you'll see like, Well, I don't, I guess I don't have any Val orbs left, but we'll go in, we'll do a map. Maps are just absolutely easy peasy, you know. Sometimes you'll die, sometimes you won't die, sometimes you'll struggle. It depends on really the map and the mods and what's going on, but you see right away we're just off-screening things, things are drawing, you know, no real fear or worries. The only thing that you have to worry about is random one-shots because, like I said, you're playing Ranger, you're extremely squishy, but things happen. Ooh, a new bow. I would die if this was an absolute massive upgrade while recording.

and the bow I use now nope. Okay, I was like, could you imagine we just pick up some 800 DPS L DPS bow while testing. The only thing this character will struggle with for a little bit is probably boss damage until you get better gear and a better bow. You make up for the boss damage with artillery ballista. Artillery ballista will take a lot of the heavy lifting for you, especially with rares, and you shouldn't really have too much of a trouble. You know, as you can see here, like this is a pretty basic tier 16 aling go map, and we just kind of cut through it with like absurdly bad gear. In a trade league, in a trade environment, you will easily have better gear without thinking, like absolutely 100%, just better gear across the board. And as you progress and you're not trying to like, you know, do things, you'll pick up better gear, you'll pick up Essences, you'll slam them into your bow. In terms of like the running itself, this run was one of the weirdest runs.

that I've done in a long time. Um, I'm going to show you guys in a second some really cool stuff that like came out of this run, but we'll just like finish up this map so that you guys can see what the map boss looks like and how it goes. I know I'm squishy, I know I will die. I, I, I'm aware that that's a thing, but you know, it's okay. You might be wondering too why I'm not like looting anything or grabbing anything. This character is just going to get deleted to do another test run, so you know, I want to make it as realistic as possible. When we get to the boss, he's going to get ghosted, of course, and uh, we're just going to immediately die because he immediately got ghosted and killed us right off the bat and just dropped all kinds of flame. Assuming the boss doesn't get completely ghosted and ruin your entire experience, the map in itself goes sweet. The character is designed to be a mapper. It is designed.

to jump in the BL Maps. It is designed to make them as simple and easy as possible. If you're wondering about kind this character you do blight Maps, I have a couple of videos on the YouTube channel you can check them out. You never really need to attack. All you need to do is run around and build towers. So I'm absolutely confident this character can build towers. Now I had mentioned earlier that this has been one of the weirdest solo stellon runs I've done in a while. This run has included things like Shadow and dust and uel's fostering. This run has also included like a replica dream or a dream feather, a widow hail, a voltaxic rift, a cold Iron Point, a greed's Embrace, a lightning coil, a heat shiver, uta's hunger, an absolutely perfectly rolled death Rush ring, chains of command, a diing and Dawn southbound gloves, Hy's B. This run, I can't dude, this run is wild. It's absolutely wild, but I don't want to hide.

the fact that you will die. I do want to showcase that the damage is really good. You can do tier 16s with like absolutely Pega gear. It's like you absolutely can do 16 tier 16s with like really bad gear. It is possible. It is doable. It feels good. The character is fun to play. I'm just undecided. In all seriousness and all honesty, I don't know what I want to play. I'm just completely undecided. There are so many good options for 3.25. This is one of them. I don't know what I'm logging in on Friday. If you see me log in on Friday and I'm playing poison cotion or bouncing or some bleed thing or something, don't yell at me. I'm sorry. I just can't. I honestly can't decide. But this is my first and foremost front runner of what I want to play in terms of thing. Like I said, it's really quick. It's snappy. It goes through Maps really well. It can go do content.

really well get your two void stones and that's really about it. I hope this video helps. If you have any questions or you get stuck, or you have any tips or updates that I should be making or I missed something, please by all means don't hesitate to leave a comment down below. Let me know what I missed. I want to make sure that I can absolutely positively get everything out to you guys, get everything updated as quick as possible. And as far as things go, if you're looking for updates, keep an eye on the description down below, bookmark this video, return to it, check every so often. I'll put little time stamps and dates when I update things, or I'll just release an updated video if I end up playing it. But for now, friends, I'm going to get this video out to you guys. And if this helped, please let me know. Otherwise, see you guys in League of Legends. I hope you guys have a fantastic 3.25. Later, bro.
