CA/TR Pathfinder^3.25

Notes

Toxic Rain AoE Sweetspot:
 - The best breakpoint for single-target damage is 37-43% increased AoE (ideally 39% exactly)
 - You can easily get this via the 20% bow mastery, the 12% passive node before Heavy Draw and a Betrayal craft on helmet or gloves

Crafting upgrades in order of importance:

Life + resists
 - Early on just get your resists capped and enough life to survive

+3 Bow (Before empower)
 - "The Porcupine" is a divination card that grants a 6 link short bow which is perfect for our crafting purposes (it also is easy to off colour due to its low attribute requirements)
  - This card can be self farmed in Orchard and Terrace maps as of 3.25
 - Essence of Dread (Minumum tier of Shrieking to get +2) until you have an open prefix and open suffix then craft Cannot roll Attack Modifiers and exalt slam for +1 level of socketed gems
 - In trade leagues a Quill Rain is incredibly good for very cheap

Spell suppression
 - This build excels at expedition so Rog crafting is a fantastic way to get early suppression gear
 - Can take the "Chance to Suppress Spell Damage is Lucky" mastery until you are fully suppress capped

Physical mitigation
 - Due to our weak physical max hit early on getting physical damage taken as is huge for our defenses
 - Lightning coil is BiS chest for this and can be self farmed via "The Coming Storm" divination card (also a fantastic target for double corrupting)
   - This card can be self farmed in Colonnade and Graveyard maps as of 3.25
 - The eldritch implicit on helmets grants 6% of physical damage taken as at its lowest tier and goes up to 8% at the higher tiers

+1 Amulet
 - Reforge chaos in harvest takes on average 1 in 9 tries to hit +1 chaos skill gems

Despair on hit
 - Saves a gem slot and good QoL
 - Reforge Caster on a Hunter influenced ring takes on average 1 in 14 tries to hit Despair on hit

+2 Amulet

FAQ:

What order for my ascendancy?
 - Rushing to Master Alchemist is the easiest way to deal with ailments and from there if you need more damage Nature's Reprisal is the easy choice

How can I get tankier?
 - Taking Master Surgeon instead of Nature's Reprisal annointing Hardened Scars and using a big life flask is an option to get huge recovery at the cost of needing to press a life flask every few seconds and finding wither elsewhere
 - With the large amount of physical damage taken as we get its worth considering getting maximum resists from eldritch implicits and the elemental flasks (Ruby Sapphire and Topaz)
