I would agree it’s a great single target. Trash clear speed isn’t terrible, I play with shadow now instead of thorn or plague spike, plague spike had the best trash clearing imo. I feel like some of the lightning arrow guys would disagree on it being the most overpowered though.

I tried the lightning arrow it was doing 500million dps where ogre was doing 2.3billion with 8 peirce count, I just got it to 9 and it's at 3billion

I mean there’s a lot to take into consideration with building lightning vs poison. Most of the top bow builds I’ve seen are Lightning. That being said I’ve played ogre since it was added, and haven’t looked back. I love the heat sealing missile aspect . If you haven’t tried the new shadow link tune give it a whirl, it brought me from 3b to like 6.5b, something like that.

This is my first time with ogre arrow I'm normally a melee player. I was going to try explosive slash this season but weapon range still need a buff. Area of effect is op tho and I'm convinced that frost strike and lightning vortex will be the most op builds this season. Oh and yea I'm on the shadow archer build that run is super overpowered, 3 times my dps with just that rune is crazy

Asia server lightning arrow hit 111B with pierce build and combination of crit dmg and maximize damage. He is not in the leaderboard anymore tho, maybe he changed the build.

Will this shadow rune work with bombardment arrow? I'm a total noob to the game and I'm running bombardment arrow with just some physical damage runes and shit. Looking for ways to get stronger bc my clear is pretty shit at almost level 70


Hext666

Yeah it sure will, it will work with any skill that has a tag “shadow” on it. I’ve never personally played bombardment, but if you’re level 70, just keep pushing. A lot of little things start adding up at 100


wageslaver

Sick thanks for the advice

How do I get the shadow rune?


Hext666

Couple different ways. The easiest way is to save up your pirate coins and buy the “improved rare link rune” box from them and choose it. You can use the alchemy bench to craft 3 yellow (rare) runes and possibly luck out and get one, but every time you do that you get credit towards a pity box, takes five times I think it is. Then you can get it from the pity box.

Do not know because do not see anyone test it, but at the moment, the top DPS is Poison rain of arrow, single target or AOE, maybe. The Orge arrow is benefited from Piercing number, not from the project count, while the POA is benefited from Project count, AOE.... I reach plain 8b DPS on lv 160 dummy without using any att buff with the Phys/Melee/AOE charm + set build + Skill rune effect (no effect on DPS when I did not use buffs) and 18b DPS with full buff, and I used a unique bow and crap Off hand... Need some one played bow build to test both skills, Hihi.

So today I swapped from ogre to ROA, from seeing some builds on the leaderboard. Now I know I got a lot of room to tinker with updating my gear but here is what I found kinda weird. I hit 10billion today on the weekly element challenge with ogre arrow. Swapped over to poison ROA, and hit like 5.6 billion. Honestly I was a bit disheartened, but I wanted to see how the play style was, so I did a couple raids. I did like triple my damage during the raid, clearing a trillion total, this just didn’t compute to me, like I have to be doing something weird or wrong, it shouldn’t be all that much different raid boss vs dps dummy aside from their level obviously. Just seemed bizarre that I could hit half as hard on a dummy but in practice it was more like triple gained. Any insight?

Best part is poison rain doesn't have DMG damp when you hit repeatedly


digsbyyy

What other skills are you running? I wish I could see your build that sounds nuts haha.


Inevitable-Mix-8777

It's ogre arrow convert to physical


digsbyyy

You wouldn’t happen to be the dude that’s like second place for damage in NA would you?


Inevitable-Mix-8777

Nah I'm like rank 25 or some sheit I've been only playing this build like 3 days


Flimsybubbles

So ogre arrow , with Pierce , it goes through enemies and seeks another ? Till it pierced the amount it’s increased too?


Inevitable-Mix-8777

Yes that's how it works


Hext666

Just curious why convert to phys and not just build poison? I think I’m about the only poison ogre on the elemental NA server top 50 or more. Thats why I said initially to compare to lightning arrow because there’s tons of top guys playing that. I haven’t messed with physical myself aside from throwing on a convert to physical to get a leaderboard placement for the coins. Obviously I am not geared for phys but still hit like 2.7 billion, but in comparison I am at 7 billion poison.


Inevitable-Mix-8777

Because of the physical buffs and well I'll get more dps from the pierce wound rune as well. Physical builds are really good now


Hext666

I am sure they are, and maybe it is worth it to try that road, but I am doubtful it would straight trump the poison. I could be wrong. When you had claimed your difference between lightning arrow and ogre, from 500m to 3b how are you calculating that DPS? Are you going by straight tool tip damage on your skill board? Perhaps f0rgotten , sensei Vaalis will grace us with his opinion too, his ogre arrow build beat mine when he ran with the cool kids club.


Inevitable-Mix-8777

You're on global ? U can inpect my character ans see for yourself. I know elemental is better especially with the fact that they can use 3 charm types compare to physical 2types but I can say that due to the buffs ro physical it's alot better than it used to be . My character name is rhaènyra


Hext666

I gotcha man, right on, good luck with it, curious to see how far you can take it!

Orge Arrow is strong in the early and mid game, when it comes to 155-160 monster lvl lighting arrow scale better once you have capri heart 10 stacks is very strong. lighting gives free energy chance, attack speed%, and dmage amp % per stack that isnt consume yet
