Level 100 Venom Gyre Deadeye^3.19

Notes

BUILD GUIDE: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNrg63Kltgo

-------------- SKILL OVERVIEW (READ THIS TO UNDERSTAND THE SKILL) -------------- 

* Venom Gyre fires a returning Projectile that can be caught. Returning Projectiles deal 75% Less Damage.
* You can catch up to 30 Returning Projectiles.
* When you use Whirling Blades, you shoot out your returned projectiles. By default you have a 40% chance to keep Caught Projectiles when firing them with 
Whirling Blades. This can be scaled to 65% using helm enchant. The Projectiles shot out with Whirling Blades can shotgun as they are fired sequentially.
* The amount of Returning Projectiles can be increased with Sniper's Mark, Awakened Fork, and Chain.

* MAPPING: Throw out projectiles and whirl around - Whirling blades will help you clear together with your own attacks.
* BOSSING/HARDER MOBS: Throw projectiles until you have close to 30 caught projectiles. We then namelock the enemy and spam whirling blades
on top of the enemy. The only thing to ensure during these tougher encounters is that Ancestral Protector is up.

*** NOTE ***: Make sure Always Attack w/o Moving IS NOT CHECKED
 
-------------- DEFENSES ------------

* Easy 100% Spell Suppression w/ Tree nodes.
* Determination and Defiance Banner.
* Jade Flask gives decent layer of Dodge w/o Grace.
* Elusive can grant you 35% Chance to Avoid all damage from Hits.
* Insane Leech rate from the high amount of projectiles and claw LGOH.
* Ailment Immunity (Boots implicit + Craft on Boot + Nodes on tree + Craft on Shield)

-------------- OFFENSE SCALING AND SOME GEAR NOTES ------------

* Scale the build by stacking flat added elemental damage, elemental damage %, and attack speed - All on Jewelry, Weapon, and Jewels.
* 100% Crit Chance with Up to 800% Crit multi thanks to Elusive Effect and Nightblade Scaling
* Point Blank and Clusters are a HUGE damage increase.

* Brittle Ground implicit on Boots is HUGE damage increase (scales with Ailment effect).
* Rage Implicit on Gloves is HUGE damage increase.
* Helmet enchant is Huge Damage.
* Blizzard Crown is a good damage increase but enchant is more important.

NOTE: You probably need atleast on -Total mana cost craft on rings / Amulet.
