With the new changes to Raider would you recommend using Avatar of the Veil instead?

Which points we must switch? Avatar of the veil instead Avatar of the chase? I think chase gives u alot more, u will have Onslaught like always.

Just a thought, but... shouldn't this build be revised? I've gone through all the comments and there are many with interesting questions that never got addressed. The Voltaxic/Reach of the Council over Doomfletch matter keeps being a subject of debate. Most seem to agree the mechanics of Doomfletch are not on par with the higher damage the others provide. I also see a lot of modifications on builds derived from this one, adding poison, pierce, different auras, etc. I, myself, am using aDoryani's Disfavour instead of Kintsugi, Lioneye's Glare instead of Doomfletch, and the Voidwalker boots, having gone the Pierce way in passive tree for the Drillneck and more dps, as well as deciding on the previously mentioned Heavy and Deadly Draw notables. All of this added to three heralds at once seems to be the best I could get on my own, but given the changes in 2.5, wouldn't an update/revision of the build be appropriate?

yeah, i would be so happy if this guide would be updated for 2.5 :)
so far following this guide, at lvl 77 now.
DPS feels Insane ;)
merc lab was a bit hard cause of lack in my defenses...

i have to upgrade my gear (except the bow^^) - Breach monsters, espacially the rare ones sometimes whoop my ass :D
but till now it is to expensive for me to fit Rat's Nest and cap resistances

Same as above : with the new patches, it's possible this build is a little obsolete.

By the way, i think using Voltaxic Rift instead of Doomfletch. What do you think ?

So any ideas what changed in 2.5 guys ? I think nothing

i calculated in Path of Building and Voltaxic would be way less damage
but i figured out Barrage should be more Damage for single Target

Atm im lvl 63 and have a 5-link Doomfletch's Prism Royal Bow but i think my dps sucks is this really the best bow for Lightning Arrow ?
