Speedy Puncture + Pierce Split Arrow / Reflect Safe or Glass Cannon / Level 100 & Uber Atziri Farmer
" I dont know what you mean by "melee physical" but i would go the physical damage route before attack speed. The point with the build is to crit often and hard, basically one-shotting everything. You can get attack speed from other places, like the hybrid nodes and faster attacks gem. I think drillneck is only worth it if you do atziri. In maps i usually run chain instead of pierce because it clears everything faster without you having to position yourself so much and drillneck with chain is kinda meh. |

I am currently level 85 in Rampage using this build and I found a Darosso's Defiance. Assuming I could still cap my resistances would it be a decent chest to use? It seems like it would work well to mitigate phys damage that does get through but I have not tried it.

my project right now i will eternal + ex this, cause i need the dual phys roll. those two other wasted slots are really bad, but okay, would be still the best bow on rampage. got my 6link aswell not that good roll, but enough for 43% chance to evade and fullres i tried 5 times atziri today and killed her 4 times, its reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally squishy with only 4k life - everything oneshots you. only atziri is a problem, the trio is the easiest shit ive every tried.

Was just using up some random ALTS today and happened to get this:
If I use Tora to craft the 60-79% Physical Damage, is this bow any good to use? And does she ever get the ability to craft higher damage than the 60-79% range? |

" Yeah, but you need Tora to be Lvl 8 to get 100-119% increased Physical Damage Standard IGN: LaHhRip

" I only have very poor gear (except the bow) in Rampage, and once my resists were in the 40-50s in merciless, the character didn't feel squishy at all. The only time she's taking damage (at 74, so not super high yet) is when mobs are extra fast, or (more often) when desync strikes. Other than that the build works superbly well for me, and she's been a powerhouse pretty much from the start. I did get a Death's Harp in the 30s, which I then used until 68, then switched to this (was 7c): Needs a fifth link, but Puncture does well with just a 4L so far. Her evasion rating is way too low currently, too (around 40% only). I did stray a bit from the original build, though, and grabbed Phase Acrobatics, Reflexes (not IR), Sentinel, and Mind Drinker. I'll spec out of those later on, except Phase Acrobatics, which I really like. | |
" So can I do it now for the 70% or so physical damage, and then when she hits level 8 is it possible to remove that 70% and add the higher 100% one then? It might take a very long time for me to get her to lvl 8 as I don't play much. |

" Hey Crackred, how is the Double Vaal fight for you? Im planning to roll Atziri soon, and whant to getter some info on the fights. THanks. |

Hi all, thank you for this build. It may be overall the strongest I have played yet. Certainly it is the fastest boss killer I have played. I sure struggled in the 50s but as soon as I bought my bow (think I paid 5c) then things picked up.
Eventually I bought a 5 link armor for about 7c and I am having a blast now. Currently with no buffs I am sitting at 7394 dps for puncture, 4980 for split arrow, and 3116 life. With HoA and Hatred running, puncture goes up to around 11k, and in a full group with lots of buffs and all power charges, it is around 14k-15k. Unbuffed crit chance is 41.6%. I imagine I will need some diamond rings to buff that more. I would like to post my gear and get suggestions on what to upgrade next. I have been shopping around, but I am trying to save up for a rat's nest, so I haven't purchased any ring or ammy upgrade. I am really struggling with int and str. My amulet is the only thing keeping me being able to use most of my equipment.

I also have a question on this bow: I found this and would like to start using it for puncture but of course it is very low dps atm. I used up some alts trying to roll some stuff but ran out without getting anything good. I am wondering if anyone is running some crafting services, who maybe has the bow master person at a high level. If I could roll a few good mods on it eventually, then have someone craft the last remaining thing on it, it might be real nice. Maybe it's just better to sell it though and buy an already rolled nice one, since it may take too much currency to roll myself. Maybe it's too low ilevel to bother (70)? thank you |
