[0.10.4b] Bow Marauder (The Shocker (tm)) [**TO BE UPDATED SOON 1.0.0**]
|
Lets put it this way.
Iron Grip would give you 50 DPS. Static Blows would double your DPS. Disclaimer: figures used might differ in real game, but that's the standard ratio you should expect. Life is tough... but it is tougher if you're stupid.

That's a pretty high phys bow, so Iron Grip will afford you more DPS than a typical low phys thicket bow. That being said, I would generally only go out of my way to get Iron Grip if I had a lot of stakced phys damage - more than that bow by itself. I would also be using Hatred, Added Fire Damage and possibly some other uniques that stack/convert phys into elemental.

" still waiting on some people to get higher level so i can do maps with them but I expect it to be smooth enough, and also still waiting on getting a 5 link armor piece so i can start using chain other than that, i can farm all of act 3 high level zones easy with this build and the gear |

This build looks really interesting however i fail to understand one thing.
How will it get enough dexterity to be able to use the high-end bows? IGN: Wolfshen

" if going the way of the ranger, then forget RT. you have enuf +accuracy nodes to get 90%+ accuracy. close enuf, plus you still have critial hits. the problem is u wont have static blows. also, you're going to get bloodmagic late in the game. for the fun factor, i prefer not having to worry about drinking mana then not being able to get back to the proper QWERT hotkeys during a firefight. nothing more frustrating in the middle of a mob than pressing 4 for mana, then hitting the TAB key (OR 1 KEY) when u wanted Q for rain of arrows Last edited by Pi314#5955 on Feb 6, 2013, 9:35:27 AM

" +40 dex quiver wont cut it? |
|
" With the finished build you have...  ...which is more than enough to run practically anything you want. By then, use Onyx amulets, Light Quivers, and pick up the two nearby +30 Dex nodes. EDIT: also finding +X Dexterity on random items of yours is not all that rare... I never had any problems with Dexterity with this build. Life is tough... but it is tougher if you're stupid.

So just to make sure: The two main damage dealing abilities required is Lighting Arrow and Elemental Hit, right?

" Sweet thanks for clarifications, currently i am a 2h marauder but most likely will switch to this cause really tired of beeing melee. Thanks again:) IGN: Wolfshen

" No. For AoE you can pick between: Lightning Arrow, Split Shot, Ice Shot (even Frenzy or Elemental Hit) For single target you can pick between: Frenzy, Elemental Hit, Ice Shot So whatever you like; pursue it. One guy a few posts back said he doesn't like Split Arrow because of the aiming mechanism, so he's not using it. If you want to min/max with definite favourites than yes, LA and EH win. Life is tough... but it is tougher if you're stupid.
