bow with pierce or chain have slightly less clearspeed than KB builds which are fastest clearers in meta.

Kb is fast, but there are some builds that are faster. Also clearspeed is relative, talking about 1man or 6man groups?

The fact that KB freeze my screen for 2 second when i'm using it make it WAY slower for me than any Bow Build.

i was talking about 6 man party. for solo probably even flicker is faster than KB

just watch out for reflect packs or you might really get forked in the ice

hahahahhahahha sorry

Is this projectile return mechanic worth it for clearing though? or will I be better off just going 100% pierce?

if you want 100% pierce, then pure LA is king.

efficiency-wise, this is more for pvp.

The thing is, there is almost no reason to go Deadeye anymore. LA and blastrain all utilize Pathfinder fully. I wanted to find an ascendancy class that truly utilizes Deadeye. And that is Ice shot.

Some people have suggested swapping Powerful Precision to +1 chain. If you are purely looking for raw clear speed in pve, maybe that could be viable. But we're in the pvp forums.
