Guys, is it really need to go to that line of nodes near marauder start point (from Diamond Skin to 13% life node). I think to go with this Build. Will it provide enough survivability?
Sorry if that question already was. I'm lazy to read all posts :(

That's similar to the build I'm using.

The differences between my build and build no.2 are:


-30% crit dmg reduction
-5% all resist
-1.9 %HP/second = 76 HP/second with 4000 HP
-5% HP = 55 HP with full build and 4k total HP
-30 HP = 108.3 HP with full build
-60 Strength = 30 HP = 108.3 HP with full build


+31% elemental damage
+31% projectile damage
+20 Intelligence
+20 Dexterity


So, a little less defences for considerable damage, I think it's a pretty good trade.

Any Unique bows work well with this build?

Really? what kind of "update" in attributes should I look for?
Mine isn't that good? I paid just 2 chaos for it...



I'm almost buying an armour 5L with same bow's color sockets...
I will pay more than 1 exalt for that! x.X'

Thanks for help!

Some people are getting high frenzy damage, but my build is literally almost 1:1 damage with LA.

What should I link frenzy with?

I have it as Frenzy-Faster Attack-Culling Strike-Item Rarity

Weapon Elemental Damage will probably give you the most noticeable increase. For me it's the difference between 1900 and 3300 DPS.

Can anyone tell me if the "iron grip and resolute technique elemental" build is still viable? It looks really fun and since I need to remake my character anyways, I was hoping it would be a good end-game build.
im level 51 atm but it is going to look like this in the future.

Passive skill tree build

Similar to build no 2 but with some more ele dmg nodes
any comments or critics are appreciated. Thx
Hi, I'm currently level 34, just started a ranger.
I have a few questions, if anyone would be kind enough to answer, I'd greatly appreciate it...
Since I looked through a few pages and I can't find an answer.

Anyways, my question is, I've been following Build #2 like many people.
I picked up all the health nodes along the way to blood magic node. I currently use a Quill Rain build as it's very fast attack speed and very fun. I actually had a blood magic gem and i 4L'd it with Elemental Hit, LMP, Life on Hit, and Blood Magic of course. With the Quill Rain, my APS is 4.5.
Each shot takes 47 mana (life) to cast, and my max HP currently is 943. My Life on Hit gem is level 7, with +18 HP per enemy hit.
Since it costs so much life to cast, whenever i dont hit anything, it hurts pretty bad. even when I do hit enemies it still hurts. I usually always use a stack of my HP pot after every fight.

Here is my gear.
Spoiler


With that being said, my question is, should I pick up Blood Magic node right now? Or should I hold off? If wait, when should I pick it up?
I've asked a friend and he said he didnt get it til level 40+.
If anyone has had this problem or have any advice, please let me know!
Thanks. :)

Hi, my take is change your bow and replace elemental hit with fork to increase damage and reduce mana cost respectively. You can take blood magic. After all, there's no harm trying when it's just 1 node away when you should have about 5 respec points by now.

And if your LoH is not yet near or on par with your char lv, go back a few maps and farm xp. Remember to keep all needed gems equipped (even on set 2 weapons).
