[1.0.5] - Lvl 100 - Blastrophe's LA / Frenzy Life Based Crit Ranger w Video (Lioneyes or Voltaxic)

The answer at face value is, I get bored on weekdays.

That being said. I had not any idea you felt so strongly on the matter, but thank you for informing me, even if I wish you'd PMed me before it got to this point. What would you prefer me to do now?

is that bow you're using now much better for this build?


Yes its best in slot for a crit life based build as reflect is never an issue even while having insane damage.



When used with a witch, it's flat out the best bow in the game with lioneye not even coming close to it (54% ias alone from LL Blood RAge is godly, let alone the insane survivability boost), even with a medium crit chance (18+5). The 54% ias from LLBlood Rage just rips through everything.

If you're switching to Voltaxic I'd recommend trying split arrow instead of LA. It frees up your LMP gem slot, and LA is good because you convert phys to lightning. Volt has next to no physical meaning very little conversion.
Justy, don't post that suggestion in every single Voltaxic thread.

This right here offers an explanation as to why LA is vastly superior.

People always think that just because the bow has low phys damage that it doesn't help at all. That's not the case. Lightning damage is lightning damage doesn't matter how little. Split arrow will also not out damage LA when clearing big packs either (ive used both). If you look closely also you can see that the bow doesn't lack lightning damage either.

Split arrow also only has phys damage on levelup.
LA has projectile damage, and its quality is shock duration.
hey blastrophe , boxfarm here.

Just a few things : Your images don't work, I suggest using imgur.
Also if you put the passive links in URL tags they will be clickable ;)

Good luck on the build !

I'm glad somebody else understands how powerful this bow is. So many people are discarding it as worthless, but when you actually know the mechanics of how to make bow builds powerful, it totally trashes lioneye.
