Legion progress
Day 2 Shaper and Red Elder
Day 3 Uber Elder and 5-way Emblem encounter

Ascendancy & Pantheon

Ascendancy
Endless Hunger -> Brutal Fervour -> Headsman -> Overwhelm
I leveled with Headsman -> Bane of Legends for the extra speed and then changed after Uber Lab, up to you.
Bandits
Help Alira for extra res and crit multi

Pantheons

Major - Lunaris (I like the movement speed and phys dmg reduction)
Minor - Gruthul (More phys dmg reduction)

Gear

Bow

Best bow for this build is a rare crafted with these mods:
Chance to deal double damage
Attack Speed
Increased Cold Damage
Adds cold damage to attacks
Crit Chance/multi
Penetrate elemental resistance
If you want to go for dex stacking you need to get Utmost Swiftness on tree and focus more on dex, maybe swap a few items to focus on dex/dex % increase.
Other options:
Hopeshredder
Lioneye's Glare
Quiver

Mods to look for:
# to # cold damage to attacks
Life
Elemental Damage to Attacks
Critical strike chance/multiplier
Bow fires an additional Arrow

Other Options

Thanks for the build man! I hope you get more attention soon!
Some questions for you:
Why Slayer over Berserker?
How well do you feel your build interacts with the Legion mechanic?
How do you feel playing a Freeze build when this League's special mobs (Timeless rares) cannot be frozen whatsoever?

Appreciate it!
Haven't looked into berserker too much, but the reason I chose Slayer is:
8% base crit on Lioneye's Glare is a huge dps boost
Crazy amounts of leech
Close to all the nodes on the tree that we want
Legion mechanic was no problem, cleared 5 emblem on day 3 and clear all of the Monolith monsters almost all the time.
Everything dies so fast, including timeless rares, that it doesn't really matter. And it feels really nice to shatter the entire screen :)

Just got this build up to maps on a 5l and it feels amazing so far! One shotting most packs and huge shatters are extremely satisfying. Do you think we could squeeze something like aspect of the spider into this build? I have one on my quiver that I found. I know hatred and herald of ice are pretty necessary though. Feel like this build could use some more defense for late game. Life pool seems pretty low. Any issues with dying to legion rares/bosses?

Sounds great! Sure, Aspect of the spider is a great addition to this build, which I also used for a while. You will however need Enlighten for it.
I rarely got killed by legion rares/bosses, did the 5 emblem encounter deathless as well as Uber Elder a couple of times. Early mapping I had some issues with survivability but I sorted that out with more life from gear. It's possible to replace body armour with something more tanky, like loreweave or Farrul's fur.

Hey! Really cool build and I've played a similar one previous 2 leagues. But I've got 2 questions regarding the build.
First, isn't worth investing 4 points in Charging Offensive in tree (near Point Blank) because it also gives frenzy charges while channeling, I think that's good for bosses.
Second question is if I put on barrage instead of your Scourge Arrow and Cold penetration instead of Infused channeling the total DPS is dropping like 400K(compared to Thorn Arrows dps) . Why is that? Does POB calculates on Scourge arrow if all thorn arrows hit? Or Scourge Arrow is that superior to barrage?

When you're charing Scourge Arrow the 5 stack channeling is over in a split second so I'm not sure it will be enough to get the charging. But if it works then certainly, but my main focus was to get as much damage as possible to avoid getting hit in Legion.
Not sure how the PoB calculates tbh but it's just that much better. I'm sure barrage will do perfectly fine, but you're missing out on the AoE and pre-firing part for Legion and will have to add something like TS or RoA which aren't as effective vs Legion encounter.

Was looking for a slayer bow build and I have been wanting to try out scourge arrow so I think I found my next build! How come no phase run? is dash and blink arrow enough to keep you moving around between packs while mapping? Can you level this up with toxic rain or what would be a good leveling skill? What nodes would you drop for more life? I'm not a great mechanical player so I like to have a little more tankiness buffer.

definitely trying this out!
If i am using a rare ele bow, would the 'Gain % of physical damage as extra Cold damage' still be important to the gears (amulet/quiver) or totally unnecessary ?

I know you probably like the helm but its doing almost nothing for you, its only 7.3 mana regen per sec (your total mana regen is 57.7, so youd still be at 50 mana per sec with no helm), and 78dps for arc, which does almost no damage anyway since your dmg comes from minions and they dont benefit from the attack/cast speed that the helm grants.
