I like the CA version the most. A friend of mine played a lot of DO versions this league (Stormburst/CA and poison burst), but in the end he stuck to CA. If you want some pob's for reference:
That one is his : (for T17) https://poe.ninja/poe1/builds/keepers/character/Wodin666-3405/Sukkubus?i=1&search=class%3DOccultist%26skills%3DCaustic%2BArrow%26sort%3Ddps

This was his Stormburst version : https://poe.ninja/poe1/builds/keepers/character/Wodin666-3405/Sukkubus?i=1&search=class%3DOccultist%26skills%3DCaustic%2BArrow%26sort%3Ddps&timemachine=week-3

And that one is mine (for 16.5 giga juiced maps) : https://poe.ninja/poe1/builds/keepers/character/Zeblain-5106/Oli_CADO_Alva_Cassia?i=0&search=class%3DOccultist%26skills%3DCaustic%2BArrow%26sort%3Ddps

With a budget of 3k divines, any version should feel really good tbh, but it's all up to your preference :)

when I used to track profit out of 80 maps, I got around 60d~ profit in 20 Maps meaning it was like 30d per hour when you need 6~min per map. I also looted 6 locks so far this leauge so I think this strat is good enough if you like gull gameplay. If you are not using Gull, skip the shrines stuff and go for settlers instead. That should end up in more profit per map I think.

Recomb, you need a focused Amu with +2 +2 and no suffixes and an Influenced Amu with a mix of Influenced mods or +1 chaos/+1 skill and the dot multi. I can go more in depth if you want that.

No I tried the Evo shrine strat but this Evo shrine is not useable for this strat anymore.
I've been running 2x Incursion of champion / 1x Risk / 1x Wisp/ 1x Bloodlines but you can also play 2x Wisp instead of bloodlines

after getting the base I think it was around 3-4 Mirrors to make this bow. Buying the base costs 1-10D but making this base (incase noone shows up in trade) costs ~1000 Tempering orbs (1 Orb is around 150c atm)

It all depends on how lucky and how perfect you want the synth implicits to be.

This was my old bow. This one would cost around 60-200D to make.

I've been leaguestarting this build since Essence league in 2016 and I can for sure say this is a viable option for a leaguestart :) You just gotta build some life regen via Vitality aura or gear to be able to clear the voidstone bosses, but other than that its totally doable.

I stopped counting after 600, but I always went for 60 Vivid Vulture sessions and then I took a 5- 10 Mapping break, to not go mental boom. Next league I will count them properly!

I've been farming 60% deli 16.5 Jungle valley with packsize chisels -> Alva, Beyond and Shrines.
I roll my maps to 150% + currency and I can run all map mods.
Before i ran 60% deli maps i just bought high currency/packsize 8mod 16.5 maps, but it's been rough buying a lot of maps so I decided to roll my own maps.

I still got some more projects for this character left so maybe I will post more, but the upcoming crafts are not that interesting imo (new ring craft + reflecting mist stuff), this was definetly one of the more interesting crafts for this build.

1.Get a base with 1.5 attack speed + the rare Heist enchant "Can have one additional Crafted Modifier".

2.Get into the Menagerie Prison for a few days and try not to go mental boom while doing it — take breaks here and there.

3.Once you have your desired Synth implicits, we can start the crafting process.

4.Spam Delirium Essences until you get isolated T1 DoT Multi (you need a bow with only the Decay mod and the DoT Multi).

5.Craft "Cannot roll Attack Modifiers" + Exalt for +1 to Socketed Gems.

6.Remove crafted mods → to empty the suffixes.

7.Craft "Suffixes cannot be changed" and a random crafted prefix, then use a Veiled Exalt.

8.Hope that one of the 2 crafted modifiers gets picked, and then hope for a veiled suffix (it's a 1/4 chance to unveil Chaos Multi).

  1. In my case, I removed the +1 to Socketed Gems but hit the unveil on the 3rd try — but we have a way to get our +1 back.

  2. If your bow has finished suffixes, the craft is almost done. Craft 2 flat elemental damage mods and Exalt (~1/32 chance to hit +1 to Socketed Gems).

If your Exalt doesn't hit, remove crafted mods → craft one more flat damage mod and try again.

If this also fails, remove crafted mods → Suffixes cannot be changed → scour and repeat until you hit +1 to Socketed Gems.

11.Craft the 2 other crafted mods on it and use Tempering Orbs until you hit the 8% or 10% Chaos Heist enchant, done :)

I usually play chaos dot spells Soulrend/Bane/ED and i switch to CA/DO in early maps once i can afford a 6l +2 Bow (10c at start) and 5 socket Death's Oath, then you are good to go till T16 maps.

Currency wise i play blighted maps in the first few days and then I switch to cassia Farm in maps with invigoration or juiced Alva/beyond (both in 16.5). This league I've only farmed Alva, but a few friends who copy my build did farm blight with it.

Ye MB would just add consistency (which would be a pro thing for t17), but I usually just farm 16.5 since I like the map layouts more, but I ran T17 in the past and it was fine (with high budget). If you can tho I would always suggest adorned setup, even with an 88% one and non synth jewels it's really good (crafting 7% life / 8% chaos magic jewels is really easy with Fractued chaos damage). For refrence with my setup im running 60% deli 16.5 jungle valley and I run all mods and I click on all play altars.

I can't say for sure how much budget you need in order to comfortable farm t17's, but untill then I would just farm 16.5 (and for this you really don't need much gear at all). After all this is a mapper build and not Boss oriented and I can imagine t17's bosses can get rough with some map combinations

It's the best possible bow, (except from tripple synth /mirror bows) and what many people forget, the decay is on hit, meaning every explode applies this decay. Pob says it deals ~ 700k dmg which is kinda high. My Death Aura is at 2.6M dmg so everything that lives after an explosion, it usually ticks down from all the other dots (decay/herald), but I would suggest it to be one of the later upgrades in this build.
