Petrov's Elemental Bow Ranger Build(s) (0.10)

Question: Should i get resolute technique early on? Or will that make it impossible for me to shock stack

Can someone post this build up?
You are sacrificing that life node with FITNESS by going to pick up the +10int +10dex...
and if you wanted the life node in the first place it makes no difference by going through the templar way.

In the long run innor force dorsnt only add more dmg, it even increases ur defense. So no sense in keepin the projdmg. Since it also adds roughly dmg. Was about 200 or so for me if i remember right and i had like 3k la dmg. I also screwed goin to the marauder startin section since there r a lot of wasted points and instead took the route to celestial walker.

That's actually pretty smart.. Here's the build after some changes:
Passive skill tree build

This saves up 4 points, which can be used to get Perfect Aim, Body and Soul or +8%Hp, +6& to all res and +8% move speed.

if you take the two int nodes from templar to inner force, you can remove 3int nodes in the top left and save 1point

I went with the most popular build, and it worked flawlessly through normal difficulty, but I'm currently at level 42 and my LA is only doing about 200 dps. I'm wondering where I went wrong. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

why does everyone treat LA like a spell? The lightning damage comes from 50% of your PHYSICAL DAMAGE. Sure you can stack ele damage but you only benefit from it on the lightning side, where with physical damage you not only gain base damage on any bow skill but it continues on toward your lightning damage. Granted if you took a 10% increase on physical, it would only be 5% extra boost to elemental. If one were to use fork I definitely think physical would be the best choice to spec into. I just think its ridiculous to go all the way across the passives map for small 10-30% elemental damage nodes when you could more than likely pick up the same in physical damage much closer and save points

i got the same problem as Dreamsickle, got gear with elemental damage on it but i only get 600dps after buffs and im having problems with killing stuff.. went with the second spec :/ anyone know what the problem could be?

is my build so far.

Really like this spec so far still low level, only 13, but so far have soloed everything and this is my first character past level 5. I am on a laptop so melee's are really hard for me seem to miss quite a bit with clicks so this template really feels more natural and is fun.

Thanks for write up.

Petrov,

have you ever tried getting elemental equilibrium? Alternate your attack between 5L supported LA and 5L supported Ice Shot? Well i would imagine you need chain on iceshot to have the kind of AE capability as LA.

It's not very practical at all, as typically people have both cold and lightning dmg mods on their gear. EE is really more for spell casters who can be very specific about which type of elemental damage they are producing.

You need better gear especially the bow. Also trade in faster projectiles for LMP.

Hi guys, I have seen pple commenting not to use chain to boost damage. But I do not understand why.

Because Chain though reduced damage by 50%, it hits 3 times. Bringing damage to 150%. And by Lv61 (Gem16), damage reduction penalty will be only 20%. This means u deal 240% damage.

Compare this to any other damage gem, I cannot think of any that brings damage to 100% more.
Not to mention if you have the chance to shock, you will be diversifying your chance to shock more monsters. 3 groups of 3 instead of 1 group of 3. Amplifies Life on Hit as well.

I might be wrong. Anyone who is more experienced in this area of calculation, please enlighten me if I'm wrong.

Thank you.
