Hi guys! this is my updated Witchhunter Xbow build for 0.2!
In the video I go over my current Xbow/Spear hybrid using Shockburst rounds for bossing and Lightning Spear for Mapping.
Pob is in mobalytics page.
I also have a MONK version that I personally like the best, If your interested check out: https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/bigdaddy-xbow-monk

(Would appreciate it if you give it a like as it took a lot of time to make.)
this build wont work unless you have insane gear and rings. You should put a disclaimer before the video or mention it. There is no cheap way to do this. Your tooltip for shockburst is like tripple of mine
How are you getting consistent frenzy charges? my spear isnt doing shit and i have all the skillgems and skills
I’m only seeing witch hunter. You mentioned a monk, where is that mob at?
Hello.
I've been running your builds for a long time, but this one is something completely different (in a bad way) for me.
For sure the build is strong, I can see it.
But I can't understand how to get as much DMG as you have.
ALL my jewels are DMG.
680DPS crossbow, with crits.
Hands of wisdom and action with good character stats.
The tree is completely the same as you have. Rings are for DMG and stats (though flat DMG is lesser)
But I only have 16K DPS in shock-burst rounds
The only difference is that your crossbow has elemental DMG increase. Does it really matter that much???
Yeah my crossbow is almost 850DPS and my shockburst is only 17k
So i ahve a better xbow than yours and everything the same i just dont give the same dmg idk why sadge
Rage also doesnt boost the damage of the shockburst…is that normal?
What do you think about cloak of flames to take care of physical damage since you have the sorcery ward?
what is the point of using xbow? spears deal with both clear and bossing good enough
is the tangletongue forked spear also a valid choice?
Hi im new to poe2. how do i see my dps stats next to my skill
Did you managed to figure out if Fresh Clip is actually bugged? I made your build and I have invested 2 divines and I’m struggling to make t8 maps. I just stopped playing since is really not funny at all.
At least last epoch is coming tomorrow.
Lightning Bolt What should we use instead ?
These items on ur budget version pob is not really that budget have items with about same stats like that helmet and body armor is like 15-30 divines each
Hi there mate, quick question about the build. I currently dont have a fitting spear and effigy to complete the build but except that went and finished the rest. Got the spirit got the buffs the attributes and currently sitting on a pretty avg crossbow. Im kinda struggling though getting the amounts of damage you are having on the video and not by a bit actually quite a lot (L. Bolt sitting at 1,9k dmg, Shockburst rounds sitting at 4,7k dmg) and cant get why the diff is so big. Any ideas why that could be happening ?
I started leveling with that, was kinda ass in early game, well, because that's probably not leveling guide
. Im using that Tanguesomething unique spear, just got myself that unique ring l. Yet to buy other items, what stats should i focus on for my Crossbow most importantly and others?
decided to subscribe, I keep coming back to your videos and really enjoy the way u break things down. Is there a way to remove "basic bolt" and/or "crossbow bolt" from the skill list for more useful gems? kinda wild that we get penalized for running an xbow in that way. – For context game will not let me remove either of those skills on my skill list –
iam new to this game, can u make build or guide for every act? iam kinda stuck with final boss act 2 cuz i got no dmg
Spear stats pls
Hi how do you get the skill Lightning bolt without having a staff equipped I can't find it in the list of gems to craft
How did you shoot so fast in the intro?
how do you used lightning rod if you only have crossbow and spear setup? it is required a bow? what alternative to use with orb storm?
how much better is it than the old one with HOWA? I love the Eternal Youth and I'm trying to build with this. Is the old one much worse/outdated?
what about adding low-life helmet and nodes? looks like its made for WH
How do I scale lightning bolt damage? It's not shocking consistent enough for me so I borrowed my friend's beacon and tried out the shock companion which I didn't like it because its dying too much. My crit chance is pretty high and I play amazon, lightning bolt tool tip is only 1.5k dps.
Fresh clip being bugged has made me postpone my lvl 91 witch hunter
Do you like to play like this? The last league we did 80 billion together with the same build, in this league we take away so little that in the fight we start yawning, this game does not deserve …He doesn't deserve any more time and your passion is too good to be fooled by the GGG
Please make a leveling version
ive missed something, because i cant generate frenzy charge, there some trick ?!
Yo, not about poe2 but do you have a lvling guide on your last epoch band build? been so long i lvled a runemaster
Thanks again
what about second weapon? spear and that shield
I search the first ring at trademarket. WITH lower stats. Cheapest one is 74 div. Where the hell did you find that ring its amazing?
So this char and same build is better and higher dps THAN your monk build? we jsut did few days ago?
maybe i have missed it but theres no explanation of that minion for cheaper build? How do you get him? What skill is that?
Nice to see you made it appreciate this alot bro.
Would you suggest anything else to pair with the against the darkness except extra light dmg
i dont understand why i don't have the same damage the tooltip say that my shockburst rounds do only 10k damage but you have 63k idk why can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong ?
fresh clip works, just UI is bugged. you can test it and see dmg increases.
Goat. Thanks a lot

what about tactician?
what do you think its better? witchhunter, monk or huntress for xbow build?
amazon guide pls
