Currently lvl 45, having a good time with your build. Im stomping cruel difficulty so far.

I havent seen mention of this helm yet, would it be good for this build?



I just bought this one with +50 life (apparently only +40 is possible?) and it has increased my damage by quite a bit. The only thing that pains me is the lack of evasion (the stat, not the fact that I can no longer evade attacks).

I have just run into a bit of a problem with my Increased Critical Damage support gem, due to its intelligence requirement. At level 8 it needs a whole 63 intelligence. This has led me to the inability to exchange some crappy items with +intelligence stats which allowed me to get the gems to this level in the first place. Should i go for more intelligence or level up a new gem to a level with suitable intelligence requirements?

Also, check out my bow (I always liked looking at peoples bows in this thread):



And these gloves boost my damage quite a bit as well, as long as im at full health:

Tkae Iron reflexes if you want to use that helm, but you will have to replace it with a normal life+res evasion helmet later on.

Just take some +30 int nodes until you find gear so you can use blue gems.

roa stands for rain of arrows.
isnt my main spell split arrow
There's something really bothering me so I'll just go ahead and ask.
Do you think the life regen/life nodes around Golem's blood would be any good?
I'm mainly asking this because I see my heath regen is really slow which sucks cuz I have to
pot all the time. Golem's blood is just 2 nodes away from your current build so I was thinking of getting it instead of the 4 8% max life nodes.
Other than that, I've really enjoyed your guide and I'm at lvl 53 myself now.
Gotta say I'm suprised at how versatile this build is(~~5k armor with grace) while I had something around 2.5k on my 40 marauder.

OP, what's the auto attack DPS with that gear and build posted at the top of the thread? Curious, because that's a good indicator of gear before 5L/6Ls and such.

The attack speed of the bow was 1.31 on Citadel base type with around 250-270 damage on the top end(cant remember exactly)as for the auto attack.. i never actually looked at that since i never used it.(and i also cannot look at it anymore since this ranger is wiped due to open beta)

One last thing, sorry I'm repeating someone else, do you find the mana nodes in your build necessary to keep auto attacking with frenzy or is there any other reason for them? I plan to simply stick a support mana leech into frenzy link. I know for sure even as little as 1k dps with 2%+ mana leech should sustain a fast ~17 mana costing skill.

Kudos for this thread in general, I started out my 2nd ranger as a physical crit damage dealer, chopping heads clean off with single arrows is extreme fun.
