" I do not disagree with you on the Lionseye vs Imperial w/ crit, but only under highly specific circumstances. Namely, your build is a crit build, yes or no? Mine is no. Could I benefit, ever-so-slightly from some crit on an imperial bow? Sure. That RoA doesnt miss. Well, Mark is saying it does? And if he says it does, but it really doesnt, expect a fix? My Lionseye is 6L - This here is the main reason. In order to get a better bow than a 6L Lionseye, I'd need a perf Phys rolled Imperial, with high crit....potentially a WED% roll...AND then I'd need to make it 6L. Since we are talking ENDGAME here, I'm not complaining. Just saying it may not be anytime soon for the pearly gates to open and such a bow to make itself available. Till then, Lionseye it is. Also, Vitality you say? I watched your Piety Video, cool stuff btw. But what if you had slotted Life Leech? I'd argue that you'd not have had to go into town to refill your potions, and would have leeched just fine off of her. Your HP tends to go up and down rather wildly too in your map runs. And if Im not mistaken, isnt your chest 3 ON colors, not 1? Its RRRBBG on an Armor base, so thats actually quite easy. Im trying to go GRRRRB or GRRRBB, on a dex based item. And as it turns out, yes, Lionseye performs just like a regular bow - has a tendancy to roll a ton of greens. I've gone through 360 thus far with no luck, going to be buying another 300-600. Also, how are you planning on running with 6k health without Kaoms? I did a build comparison, and it turns out you only have 10% more Max life than I do. And lastly, your Int/Dex figures are fairly low. An Imperial bow will be 212 Dex, and max Wrath/Purity/Hatred are 151 if I remember correctly, how are you reaching these figures? In my case, I opted for Astramentis. I found that it's the only way with the build I made to reach both numbers without sacraficing a bunch of passives nodes to get them. Prylos // RoA Marauder 89+

I did just notice the dex on your gloves, plus of course the all attributes from your amulet. That covers the dex req of Imperial bow.
Does not cover the 151 req of max lvl auras though if Im not mistaken. Prylos // RoA Marauder 89+

Dex and int is not an issue really. Ill post the attribute values in the OP in a few hours.
The piety video has only 5 auras running, the video is outdated (look at that life in the video). Without the topaz flask, piety can stack up triple shock in a matter of seconds if you are unlucky, not worth taking the risk, i rather refill the topaz. I could switch added fire for the lifeleech and then stack up topaz only, but i got all portals left usually, so whatever. Even with the topaz i get shocked once sometimes (the duration is about 1 second). I pretty much already am at 6k life right now, one more level and i will be above 6050 or something like that. About the colours, i was talking from the bow perspective. I have one green gem (RoA), on a bow that would equal to 5 off-colours. On the chest its 3 off-colours which is quite easy (mistyped 4 instead of 3, sorry about that). I will upload a few recent videos today or tomorrow. Btw i always have lifeleech in my second weapon slot on me. If i face something insanely dangerous, i can always opt to switch that in, but so far the only time i switch lifeleech in is if i face a cinder elemental rare on a lvl 76+ map that has the purity aura, that guy takes very little dmg (cinder elementals have high fire resist already, + purity and you are basically looking at zero dmg from your fire department) so i need that lifeleech to sustain me through the encounter.

Ok, I see what you're saying about your bow, thats not quite the same however
I've got a couple pure evasion 4L's with 1 green as well. Theres much fewer color combinations as a 4L than in a 6L, so theres a big difference between rolling 1G on 4 sockets than on 6. I'm kind of considering trading in the Kaoms and getting a rockin' 6L to make it easier. If I do that, I'll have a 6L Lionseye freed up for.....6L Frenzy perhaps? Idk if thats completely necessary for this build though. Prylos // RoA Marauder 89+

" You still misunderstood. Was talking about switching to kaoms and usage of a 6L bow with 1 green gem. If i were to switch to kaoms, i would have to get 5 off-colours on the bow. " If you do it that way, you can do what i have in mind for the second 6L slot. 20% critchance, 20% added lightning, critdmg, 20% elemental profileration, faster attacks, 20% frenzy. Even with no basecrit, you can reach a very high % chance to shock your enemies with quality critchance, ele prof and added lightning. If its not fast enough, add conductivity curse (recurse something else after triple shock). If you encounter a pack of champion cinder elementals (the bane of this build) you curse them with conductivity, start shooting at them with this frenzy, and in a matter of seconds they will all be triple shocked. Proceed to kill them with RoA. Cinder elementals (on lvl 75+ maps) are the only enemy type that i cant faceroll in a matter of seconds. With this they should become a joke. Alternatively you can use the ultimate flame totem shenanigan. Flame totem + faster casting + gmp + lmp + knockback + pierce. That totem will basically be impenetrable by any melee type, including cinder elementals. You could do chain instead of pierce, but i dont know how knockback behaves with chain (they might be knockbacked into all kinds of directions, making it impossible to kill them efficiently).

" No no, you're misunderstanding that I misunderstood =P What Im saying, is that you cannot compare the difficulty of getting 1 green on a 4L vs 1 green on a 6L, that was all :) Im not entirely sure its possible, all truth be told. I did a little research after spending 360 chroms, and like the poster before me, most are going through about 1100-2000 Just to get GGRRBB, and you and I are wanting ONE green, not two. The idea behind Frenzy...thats interesting. I was originally thinking about the traditional freny links for more damage, but since RoA's damage will be extremely high to begin with, thats not half bad. I admit I've never tried these totem shinanagans, so it's hard to speak on that specifically. The only totem link I ever used was Skele totems as LA, which complimented it well. I know that would as much with this build, so perhaps the Flame Spray idea. Out of curiosity, what do you think about the differences in our builds overall (passives)? Prylos // RoA Marauder 89+

hey i just respecced from LA archer to this build, lost 500 dps according to the stats, gained about 800hp..
but i cant even farm docks now the mobs are destroying me x.x 2.8k hp.. 5 link chest with kinda feeling lame cuz i spent all the moeny i have made into regrets and now im getting owned lol i am not yet running vitality because i dont have a slot for blood magic on my armor, is that my problem? i guess my armor is also low but my dps according to the stats is 2.2k with ROA at 75% accuracy or w/e shud i swap out life leech for blood magic so i can get the extra auras? also, according to the stats my dps is higher with my ele bow than a physical bow with slightly less stats, but i dont see ROA dps beign affected when i put in the added fire gem, is this hidden? should i be able to pull like 20 mobs at once to roa them? thanks in advance! and POEvenator i actually was using ur LA build before lol, i was owning docks but i was getting owned by lots of high hitting mobs so i thought id swap over QUESTION: does point blank damage count from where you were when you shot the arrow, or where you are when it lands??

" And i never said that. Dont know why you keep herping on the 4L when i never said anything about a 4L. " You got the wrong bow. An elemental dmg bow does not work well with blackgleam, added fire, iron grip, hatred nor RoA physical damage increase. Almost nothing this build utilizes works well with an elemental dmg bow. You only got a little bit elemental damage and thats it. Last edited by gh0un on Mar 19, 2013, 1:20:27 PM

i also have this bow
when i put it on, the stats show it as slightly less dmg is it cuz its a craptastic now? or because the added fire dmg does not show on the stats? am i just getting confused by the DPS shown? thanks for the speedy reply =D i am actually in love with the build, just having trouble making it work |
