thanks for response. I will go for RoA with Crit Damage + Crit Chance + Mana Leech + Concentrated effect + Faster Attacks.

About the stats for critical damage and critical chance. Could you post your stats pls?

Regards,

you will not need to use mana leech, you will have enough mana leech from the mods on your gear by that level hpefully, so i suggest you use culling strike or faster projectiles instead of mana leech.

My gear has long been wiped, so posting stats is ahrd to do from memory, but i did use a crit amulet, maligaros, crit quiver and had the multiplier passives from the tree,

I havenot take into account that in a pure evasion chest you can not have 3 green + 3 blue socket. (A gamemate told me that for get 3 green + 3 blue I need a Eva/Es chest)

After spend chromatic I get 4 Green + 2 Blue.

What is the best support for RoA with 3 green + 2 Blue?
for example this one?
RoA: Crit Damage + Concentrated effect + Faster Attacks + Faster Projectiles + Culling Strike

About my items:
I have checked that my bow have the minimun values of each stat (except mana). Should I use a divine on it to try to improve the dps? (I never use a divine)

The chest only have 4 stats, should I use 2 exalted on it to try to get life or chaos res?

Thanks in advance,

I put my char based on this build in the trashcan ages ago, because I lost interest, and my gear was absolutely horrid. But today I had this drop

I know it's not great, but you should have seen the gear I had before... could this drop warrant me rebuilding my phys ranger? she's even gotten a stat wipe, so maybe.

I'm quite happy with a slightly modified version of this build. I didn't get Iron reflexes but the second Acceleration node and Mental Aciuty in the Shadow area. It's mainly crit based and I got a decent bow for it.

I'm still trying to find out the best skill combination and switch a lot at the moment. Both chest and bow are 5L. I'm usually using Frenzy with Chain/faster attack/ Crit dmg/Crit chance but Split arrow with added fire dmg. and weapon ele. dmg. gives high DPS when running Anger, Wrath and Hatred auras.

Any recommendation?

Also, would you exalt the bow or would you save the money? I'm not sure what to do.

i would not exalt it.

i suggest your reaplce added cahos damage with increased critical strike chance, i would reaplce WeD with chain or critical strike damage, it would improve the dps even more, chain especially wince you will increase your crit rate by a lot. (reflect will be instant death with chain though, so be careful).

Thanks for the tips.

I will change some of the gems and save an exalt orb. The bow works good as it is and money can be invested for an most likely expensive upgrade.

Dying with dmg reflect might be a problem but all I will lose are 15% exp. which is sometimes frustrating as well.
