Intro & build description
Galvanic Arrow was one of the skills that flew under the radar since the minion builds were the ones who dominated in terms of popularity. The skill itself is not your usual ranged skill and feels more like a channeling skill but is super fun to play.
Build Pros
- Excellent build for quickly farming maps
- Really versatile in gear choices
- Good leech
- Decent as a league starter
Build Cons
- Single target damage requires larger investment into gear

Hey, I was checking the passive skill tree link that you put here, on the skill tree you choose 2 frenzy charges, how do you use them ? I cant see anything on the build that would activate them, but ofc they are there for a reason.
You are right, we forgot to mention that you should look for an rare Elder ring with “Curse Enemies with Level x Poacher’s Mark on Hit” mod.
Hey, I noticed that you put on the gems for us to use CWDT with Immortal call, are the levels correct ? does a lvl5 CWDT support a lvl10 immortal call ?
Hi, there was a mistake there – it supports level 7 Immortal Call as a maximum.
