Alright this build has inspired me, and shortly after starting to make this build I realized how much range the bow Quill Rain gives to EK, Upon seeing the Ek knives basically go from my character to the edge of the screen I decided, Yep this is it.

So I made a build specifically for this.


Passives.

Basically it takes advantage of the projectile speed and attack speed of quill rain to proc the EK knives.

Main attack would be explosive arrow with blood magic.

Due to the loss of shield, I changed the build around and added around 130% more evasion rating along with 40% all ele resists.

Pros and cons
Spoiler

pros- Very fun many projectiles
-2 possible 6 links making you possibly able to save on a lot of doubled up gems
-Safer distance than spec throw/cyclone
Cons-
-less overall crit chance, hopefully made up by increased attack speed (Id say you can get between 40-60 crit chance depending with this.
-Low damage bow so your basic hits wont do as much, the explosion from explosive arrow is nice though, relying pretty much entirely on EK.
-possible less defenses.
-cant block spells!


This is still in complete testing and may or may not work

^^ Watched for some time, nice! When doing hard maps, how about putting Immortal Call also on Cast on Crit? edit. like against Kole, what you are fightning right now. :)

edit. by the way, what's your sheet dps of the EK without auras?

Im having trouble deciding which bandit quest to choose. Should i kill all to gain an extra skill point or should i help oak for endurance charge(more tank), or help alira(last priority).
I'm following the dual wield, any high levels near end game can suggest which is the most viable option to pick?

I would say get the skill point. I don't think the few (?) times you get that extra charge up can outweigh a skill point, especially at end game where skill points are huge.
