Athena, I was wondering how you acquired enough INT to use endgame gems. I'm currently lvl59, using your build, and have gone through some difficulties getting enough int to use some gems (esp wrath/ALD)


You grab the +30 node on the wheel near blood magic, that should be enough bonus int pair with an onyx amulet until you get up to all the int nodes on the way to static blows. This should not be a problem at all.

Also I didnt level gems like wrath all the way to fast as I was making sure I was comfortable in the life department before increasing my reservation.

You should be having problems at your level tho. The build shined from 55+ :)


Alright cool, thanks for the tip.
Which helm is best for this build? Alpha's howl?

Also which boots and gloves are best for this? the unique ones with added lightning damage or good rares?

going elemental.

Where can I improve my gear? I'm not doing nearly enough damage as I'd like. I have a couple exalts, but I have no idea how to increase my DPS as I don't understand the system well enough yet.Edit: Ignore the gems, I was just leveling stuff for my witch.

The key is to get a bow with good DPS and the right links to support your gems, then you want to have IAS on a quiver/gloves and elemental damage rolls on jewelry and other stuff. You need to balance this with life though.

(Shameless self plug) let me know if you need some decent upgrades for a great price that my LA Duelist used =]. Theres some nice low level stuff too.
I would like to say thank you to Athena. Really enjoying this build. Now sitting at level 60 and waiting to use bad boy

Your more then welcome, I am glad your enjoying the build :)

do yall think this bow is better than lioneyes or should i work towards lioneyes?
Lionseye is going to do more damage than that bow. Especially since you would be able to spec out of RT.
Thank you for this build and the thorough walkthrough!
I'm playing it with my first character, self-found. Currently finishing up on Merciless A3, having a ton of fun.

Now what pieces of gear need an update the most? What kind of stats should I aim for to farm maps?

-Stats:
level:67
HP:2450
Armour:2100
fi-res:50
co-res:76
li-res:80
ch-res:-39
LA dps with chain/lmp unbuffed:608

-Gear:


-Current build:
Passive skill tree build

I dont really recommend you going and spending a ton on a Lionseye unless you are extremely wealthy and can spare the currency.

I had a very very mediocre tri ele bow with no IAS on it, and moving up to a lionseye + specing out of RT only boosted my DPS by 150 which is quite small. This build trully shines with a tri ele bow and the one you linked is decent.

Plus you have to spend all that crap trying to socket + 5/6 link it, trust me its not worth it.
