Is there anyway to make this routine shoot fire arrows? it just uses default attack!
 
The ranger routine uses these gems by defaut: Lightning Arrow linked to Life Leech/Life Gain, 2) Frenzy, 3) Decoy Totem or Summon Skeletons (linked to Spell Totem if desired).
These spells must be present in the spell bar to be used.

But you can modify it to use fire by editing this file:
C:\<Install Folder\Routines\ApocsRangerRoutine\RangerCR.cs
and under Combat replace "Lightning Arrow" with "Burning Arrow" or "Explosive Arrow" etc

You'lll see in the combat routine that it
1. fires frenzy if not at max stack or <= 1.5 seconds left on max stack.
2. Next choice is lightning arrow if there are 2 or more enemies in range,
3, else back to frenzy.

But, before it even fires a shot it checks to see if you're low on health, and will use LA as top priority. So this assumes you have Life Leech and or
Life Gain on Hit linked to it.

LA and frenzy are a good match because LA is good AOE and Frenzy is powerful vs single target. Make sure your BA is AOE. Use Fork, Lesser Multiple Projectiles
or GMP as needed.

Decoy Totem/Summon Skeletons keeps mobs off you.

im going to use the intended build for the routine i dont feel like fucking with it, but i need a guide on how i should build my char to this routine and gear and what not.

would be cool if you could help me out in this thread or pm me :D
 
You can either go high weapon elemental damage (and use something like a Lioneye Glare), or go with the same build I'm using (which is more crit-focused using a Voltaxic Rift).

Either way, you build around a ton of health, blood magic, LA/Frenzy, and Life Leech/Life Gain on Hit. First thing I did was get a 20% quality Life Leech gem. (Link LGoH with LA, LL with Frenzy, you can eventually switch LGoH to LL on LA when your damage is high enough)

Then I just grab Skele brotem to keep monsters from smacking us (we're not quite *that* tanky anymore) and the evasion aura.

Bear Trap is invaluable until you have decent enough gear to just use Frenzy against rares+. Once you can out-leech their damage or reflect, then you can drop bear trap and take something more useful (like enduring cry)

Okay got all that im almost lvl 55 so im just trying to get closer to lvl 69 to start getting good gear, i started out trying to use this build for my skill tree( https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/471594 ) but this route is not going to work for the bot so imma go with the skills you suggested

Is there any recommended items and skill tree build i should use?
 
I was using the ranger routine yesterday with a ranged attack totem and frenzy and it was working great. Then this morning, I'm trying again on a different computer and it won't recognize the skills.

it was not working for me either but when i restarted the bot it started using totems
 
I've restarted and even switched computers again, but it still won't use either the decoy totem or the ranged attack totem.
 
Ranger routine is really good but why no support for rain of arrows?
 
Also apoc if you're reading this. how do you kill proximity shield rares that are ranged. The bot just sits there and spams frenzy on them when it needs to be inside the shield in order to do damage.

I LOVE tabbing into the game to check on the bot and seeing it's been auto attacking a proximity shield mob for 50 minutes. Edit: Bear trap helps with this.

40% of the time the bot initiates combat at melee range. This kinda defeats the purpose of a ranger. shouldn't I be sniping mobs from barely off screen?
