[Ultimatum] PoE 3.14 Gladiator Bleed Split Bow Cheap Duelist Build

Bleed Bow is probably one of the most popular Gladiator builds out there. Great clearspeed with built-in "pop" effect because of Gladiator's explosive ascendancy. Good tankiness as you can stack armour, some block, and a lot of chaos resistance. If you need a good 3.14 starter build with fast speed, this PoE 3.14 Gladiator Bleed Split Arrow Starter Duelist may be enough for you.

4L: Split Arrow - Chance to Bleed - Brutality - Pierce (or Chain). 

Buy Tabula Rasa with cheap price on PoeCurrencyBuy!

For bows i recommend Silverbranch and then Silverbough as well as Replica Quill Rain
Later i used Infractem simply because it was cheapest 6L bow. If you can somehow get a 6L Lioneye's Glare that would be great.

For chests, Ambu's Charge is great cheap option, as well as Belly of Beast of cause.

For quiver i recommend Drillneck as it gives 50% increased damage with hits and ailments and gives pierce and lof of juice. After you get block ascendancy nodes you can switch to full block Rearguard.
