been following this guide, lvl 68 atm.. and my dmg is horrible comparing to people on this thread. buffless, frenzy: 2.2k and split: ~600, 3k+ hp, all res. capped at 75 with the new chest.
current passive @lvl68

I have a new chest, wasting fusings on getting 5/6L atm..(trying to chance every imperial bow i find, lioneye too expensive)

having coc + chain on split atm helps alot. Without them, i would be doing almost 0 aoe dmg. my crit chane is ~24% and i'm getting alot of EK procs while on 6 frenzy stacks.

Dude read the guide! Dont switch to CoC+EK unless you meet the requirements! You are only lvl68...Gear not perfect you also miss some important skilltree nodes at that level! Just put out CoC + EK and go with SA + Chain + Faster Attack + (Added fire ,muliplier, or physical attack) !

to be fair im kinda in the same boat as him, lvl 81, 51% crit chance, 5 link Split Arrow, 800 dps?

not sure what im missing

your CoC + EK DPS are not displayed at the tooltip......

my 5l CoC+EK SA setup has only a DPS of 2,5k! ;)

Spoiler

gear looks pretty well....bad rolled LG....Quiver needs a lil bit more multiplier

Can i see a screenshot of the offense/defense screen pls.

Here is my gear that I have for this build in Ambush. Most was purchased through xyz for like 1-4 chaos a piece but the bow was ~1 ex



Passives at 75 - going for Influence next then more life


I have hatred, grace, and haste depending on what my map group is using/needs. I only have 4L's at the time and I am doing 1256 dps on Split Arrow and 7777 dps on Frenzy with no auras or Maligaro's. My crit is 37.1% with Split and 43.4% with Frenzy. The EK tab says I do 500.8 dps without auras. I also have 4392 life but low armor (used Iron Reflexes) at 4076 for 33% damage reduction with a lvl 17 Grace. Also got 75/74/75/-60 resistances.

I may try to use RearGuard when i find it in game or cheap on xyz.

Another skill tree suggestion:

On the right side, for the Revenge of the Hunted group.
You access it via 3 10DEX nodes (connecting to bow damage).

You may want to connect it from above, either the 30STR or the 30INT. Any way of the three costs you 2 nodes, of which 1 is a 10DEX. Basically you can trade a 10DEX 1 for 1 with a 30STR or a 30INT - either can make getting gem requirements easier.

Now a question, I took the frenzy charge for bandit rewards, but I left the 10DEX+frenzy at the bottom giving me 7 charges. Any reason you didn't leave yourself with that node for 7 charges?

Answer: You need 1 more point, because the one dex node is neccessary (which connects the bow dmg and the health)! With the Guide you optain so much STR so I choose this way. The Tree wants to be the efficent (Few points , max outcome)

Answer: Same here....i Just wanted to save 2 Points :D ofc you can go with 7 Frenzy Charges if you want!

I connected mine via a +30 node and Attack Speed/Critical Strike Chance, since I already do way more than enough base damage and needed the Int for Infernal Mantle. It's the same number of points.

max, have you thought of changing to rat's nest? i think its a huge boost to this build. im using it now and its really good :D

btw, i just replaced fork with chain and its much efficient to clear bunch of mobs. was wondering if, when chained to 2 other mobs, if it crits, will it still proc ek?
