BUILD OUT OF COMMISSION....NO LONGER VIABLE DUE TO IDIOTIC CHANGE TO IRON REFLEXES

I am very interested in giving your build a shot as a Duelist.

To my relief, the gear you show is doable, would you mind showing what bow you are using as well as the belt, rings and amy.

I have a few good bows stored, but nothing special (lvl 50 bow 172 dps). I also have the first two low lvl Unique bows to make a very quick start through all of act 1.

I have a lvl 47 ranger that is stuck with having to kite constantly to just progress, and it is very frustrating. Your build appears to give a much better opportunity to get past the leveling wall I have experienced between lvls 44 & 52 with every class so far.

thanks

Ish.....

just by looking at the 110 pts build:

-- going for iron grip is pointless if youre not using a heavy physical bow (with dmg comparable to lioneye's at least); if your build assumes a glare then its 50dex short (30 with a 20onyx) of the required 212dex; if no lioneye's then why no RT?

-- if youre using an elemental thicket/imperial then take RT and use Ele Hit for single target dmg, Frenzy with a low phys dmg bow literally does like half the dmg of Elemental Hit

-- think you missplaced a point and took a 10str node instead of lava lash?

Again as I said this is merely a guide, certain point allocations and the order varies greatly depending on individual gear. I can't be precise about the build for every possible gear pieces. That's the fun, you get to figure all that out on your own :)

there are 3 viable ways to build like that, and neither leaves much decision making:

-- use a high elemental thicket/imperial, in which case u get RT but skip Iron Grip and use Ele Hit for single target dmg

-- use a high physical thicket/imperial, in which case u get RT and Iron Grip and use Frenzy for single target

-- use Lioneyes, in which case u dont need RT, u get Iron Grip, and use Frenzy for single target

the bow one uses is the most significant gear variance that decides the build and skills.
also, misplacing points is just sloppy.

You don't know what bow I am using, and you also don't know what other gems I use and swap out with. You shouldnt assume things. This is a general guide for people and as I said certain gear pieces will dictate what points they get, what order they are taken, and the end result. It may be sloppy to you but you don't know what I or other are using for gear, so keep that in mind.

You can build your character how you see fit for you :)

That's the beauty of this game we all can build how we chose.

You overlooked the two 12% max HP nodes...

Thank you for bringing this to light, I have seen them and haven't had the time to re-edit all 12 links to reflect it, I will get to it as soon as I can.

2 questions
why change the 3x3% atk speed nodes to 3x10% ele damage around 40points ?
aaaand
why u avoid the leather and steel node? with 3 point there u get 40% armor and ev and no movement penalties, or 32% with just 2 points
i just want to know, im kinda new to the game

I spec out of the attack speed nodes because the duelist has access to acceleration AND beserking which both provide a total of 27% additional attack speed. You combine that with a 1.55 thicket bow and your already at around 2.20 attack speed with the first 2 other nodes at the start of the duelist tree. This is a very nice comfortable spot for bow attacks and well above what ranger can do. I also have a 20% quality LMP which gives me an additional 10% attack speed. I also have 13% on my gloves. So I am currently at 2.63 speed and when I get my lionseye ill probably be close to 3.0.

So these 3 x 3% are very small and a waste of 3 points. They are much better spent on the 3 ele damage nodes.

And about your other point, the great thing about iron reflexes is you convert all evasion to armor, allowing you to fully stack pure evasion. You do not suffer from any movement penalties with evasion :)

Wouldnt this be better XD?

No offense, but this looks awful for what we're trying to achieve here lol. There are so many useless nodes for this build that you took.
