This page is about the Ascendancy class. For the Ascendant passive, see Deadeye (Ascendant passive).

The Deadeye is an Ascendancy class for Rangers.

Overview

The Deadeye is an offense-oriented class that focuses on projectile damage and area of effect. This class is obviously suited for bow attacks but most of its modifiers apply to any sort of projectile, meaning most projectile attacks (such as those fired from Wands) and some spell projectiles also benefit from them.

75% increased Effect of your Marks
25% less Damage taken from other Enemies near your Marked Enemy
Your Mark Transfers to another Enemy when Marked Enemy dies [1]

Focal Point is a notable Ascendancy passive skill for the Deadeye. It grants increased mark effect, causes marked targets to transfer the mark to another enemy when they die, and cause other enemies near the marked enemy to deal less damage to you.

Ruthless mode

Focal Point (Ruthless)

Ascendancy Notable Passive Skill

10% more Damage taken from other Enemies near your Marked Enemy
20% less Damage taken from Marked Enemy

Focal Point in Ruthless mode does not grant mark effect or cause your marks to transfer to another enemy when a marked enemy dies. It also causes you to take more damage from enemies near the marked enemy, but instead take less damage from the marked enemy.

Projectile Damage, Attack Speed

For the Deadeye ascendancy passive skill, see Far Shot (Ascendancy passive).

Far Shot is a keyword that scales the damage of projectile attacks with respect to the distance the projectile has travelled, reducing damage initially then increasing damage after covering a long distance.

It can be found as a modifier on various items as well as an Ascendancy passive skill of the same name. The Far Shot modifier grants Projectile Attack Hits deal 20% less Damage to targets at the start of their movement, dealing up to 60% more Damage to targets as the projectile travels farther.

Monsters also have a variation of Far Shot which scales differently.

Mechanics

The projectile has a maximum damage penalty of 20% less near the start of travel (up to 10 units), then linearly scales to a maximum damage increase of 60% more at 70 units.

It is important to note that damage scaling is done with respect to the total distance the projectile has travelled, not its current distance from the point of origin. If the projectile changes direction—as is the case with Spectral ThrowSpectral ThrowAttack, Projectile

Right click to remove from a socket.—distance travelled continues to increase as the projectile returns to its point of origin. Projectiles that travel in multiple segments (such as Arrow Nova Support) include the payload distance in the damage penalty.

Fork, pierce and chain

A projectile which pierces, chains or forks is still considered the same projectile, and its total travel distance is used.

Point Blank

Point Blank and Far Shot are multiplicative with each other and can make damage more consistent by counteracting each other's damage penalties.

The Purple Graph shows the damage scaling Interaction between Point Blank and Far Shot.

Projectile speed

Projectile speed has no impact on the distances at which Far Shot's multiplier affects damage.

Longshot

Longshot functions similar to Far Shot, but has a smaller distance range (35-70), has no negative scaling, and instead grants increased Damage instead of more Damage.

Ascendant's Deadeye Ascendancy Notable also scales similarly.

On Enemies

Far Shot is also used as a monster modifier. It is used by Retchs, Maelströms, Voidbearers, as well as some unique monsters. These modifiers likely use a similar damage scaling, starting at 0% more.
