Fixed a bug where Life on Hit was applied twice to non-blocked hits.

hmm hope LoH will still work as good as before O_o

Edit: also need advice this is my build at lvl 68 my build

I can't decide where to go now

1) hp nodes in marauder
2) hp nodes in templar
3) inner force

where to go first ?:)

thx

go hp nodes in templar, then marauder then get inner force.

you also missed 3 weapon elemental nodes near iron reflexes, perhaps you might wanna get that too..

my advice to get hp is because once you start mapping, you will need alot more hp to sustain blood magic casts, as well as mobs hitting you. Ofc, if you want to rush dps, just go inner first then hp later no problems with that either. :)

Thanks for advice, i was thinking the same i like more tanky style.. also i didnt mised 3 the ele points i take them at end game, no time for them atm, so hp all the way now :) thx

so what is ultimately better LoH or Life Leech?
maybe LoH on low lvls and then switch to LL?

LoH for LA, Life Leech for Elemental Hit.

I have a question.

Which of these builds is the most reliable for some of the DPS I see in Docks on Merciless etc?

And anyone have a progression of which route to take and not get too early? Complete ranged nub so yea

I would go with the #2, tank build most popular.

Hello mate, I didn't get a chance to look long at your gear, but your bow is very lacking in dps and attack speed. I do understand that it is your 5L. I would aim for a thicket bow( req lvl 56) as they have 1.55 attk speed and just look for one with high ele dmg. You would of course then have to buy/find a 5l armor, but the armor is a worthy investment, and then you can focus more on getting good DPS thicket bow vs worrying about not being able to upgrade your bow because you rely on the 5l in it. Gloves can also be upgraded to a pair wil ele dmg/attk speed (health and res are always bonus also) rings can be upgraded for better ele dmg. You can get ele dmg % on your belt, quiver can get some ele dmg %, ele dmg, and attk speed. Heres my gear for reference


I'm using build #2 tank my stats are with auras,
2742hp
6263 armor
3.3k LA 3.19 APS
5.2k Ele hit 3.14 APS
75 all res
-60 chaos(lol)

pretty good dps and tanking, but it is gear dependent.

I dont know why the items doesn't come with gems... but...
Your stats seens pretty high!! What is your lvl?
I think I'm going to build #2 too...
And btw, thx for the tips...
I have another question...
When you were able to use Wrath that high level?
I mean, there is a huge INT req. there...

Here we go, the gear with gems... What do you think?
Also, about gear, is pretty hard to find good bows with the right sockets...
I'm looking for a 5L armor GGRR(B/G) but it is harder, all that I've found so far had at least 4 gcp bids that I cannot afford yet.

if i am searching for a bow what should i look for to gain more dps?
i see that there is yellow , green and blue elemental damage what does the color mean?
so what should i look for?

Hey all!

Well, after toying with LMP+Chain some more I still just cannot get on the bandwagon. Chain w/o LMP performs amazingly! It allows you to hit targets that are more spread out than LA's aoe will hit. LMP w/o chain also handles quite well. It gives you that spray and pray ability for when you need to move. It also supplies superior firepower vs anything close to a wall as well as mobs that are grouped very tightly. But when you put these 2 together you just lose far to much power in your shots to make it worth the crazy arrows flying everywhere effect. LMP and Chain linked together literally drops my tooltip dps by 2/3. And not only does the tooltip say I lost a ton of power, but actually killing things shows this as well. While it is cool, it is simply NOT worth the dmg you sacrifice when 1 or the other can get the job done as good or better by themselves.

My 2 cents after playing around with it for a few days.
edit: Did I mention it doubles the mana cost? 114 mana for a spam ability is quite harsh. Though the build can take it, it leaves less hp from life on hit/life steal to counter dmg taken.
edit2: I'm sorry I just can't help myself :)

LMP Pros:
Less dmg reduction modifier
Spray and pray effect
Shooting against walls triggers the aoe from all 3 arrows
Less mana cost multiplier
Makes your bow sound like a sniper rifle! Suppressed ofc

LMP cons:
Very ineffective vs mobs spread out of aoe radius
Wreaks havoc on your fps

Chain Pros:
Always hits 3 targets in a very big radius
Can hit targets behind walls if original target is within line of sight
Less of fps killer than LMP

Chain cons:
Huge mana cost multiplier
Huge dmg reduction modifier
Requires a bit more attention to aiming

Feel free anyone, to add to this list.
