Petrov's Elemental Bow Ranger Build(s) (0.10)

What curse is better to use if i have 50/50 fire/lightning dmg on LA and 80/20 fire/phys dmg on Frenzy(cuz of BlackGleam)? Im using conductivity right now, but maybe elemental weakness will be better?

So have there been changes to builds because of the Duelist tree overhaul?

Thanks for the build, I just wanted to ask if Iron grip is a good idea for the LA builds

imo elemental weakness is better for both. + fact that projectile weakness does knockback, its bugging monsters on walls, cant shoot, they cant move

Curses

Projectile Weakness : Pierce Chance(40-48%), Knockback Chance(15-24%), -Evade Chance (30-66%), +Damage (20-34%)

Elemental Weakness : -Resistance (30-49%)

Conductivity : -Lightning Resistance (30-49%), +Shock Chance (10-14%)

At a glance ^^.

Conductivity is the best because you get +15% chance to Shock, use elemental weakness only in party if the other do fire/cold

Projectile weakness is good if u use split arrow, is not good with La/chain

question to anyone. what are the best skill gems to try and get quality on? i dont think the auras are worth it as they only add radius. i already have quality LA but looking to upgrade some others. so any advice?

Con't go wrong with upgrading Faster Attacks & Weapon Elemental Damage.

Oh & another question - say you are lucky enough to get a 6L what's the best damage gem for the last slot to go with LA?

LA, Faster Attacks, Weapon Ele Damage, Life Gain on Hit/Life Leech & LMP/Chain are kinda set in stone

But what for the last slot - Added Cold, Added Lightning, Added Chaos, Lightning Penetration? Quite a few options really.

5l La/lmp/chain/weapon ele damage/loh.

6l you add faster attacks or you can try with add lightning damage with lot of quality


Fadedpenguin you can get quality Lmp its really good 20%=10% atk speed, and for frenzy/weapon ele damage and faster attack its really good also

I'm starting a LA ranger using the second build in the OP (tankier one). Should I grab the keystones as I get to them, or should I wait for certain stats/gear etc before I get them?
