[3.8] Arly's Ice shot bower
" Nothing specific, but when I started playing this game in Legacy I enjoyed the shit out of reading neversink's bow guide even tho it was waaaay too much information to absorb for a starting player, I missed that a little here. However this doesnt taint the guides quality and you clearly state at the top that this aint for no scrubs xD. The way you put it makes sense and anyone could make the build tbh, all the information needed is given. Any specific reason for decree instead of commandment? Again, thnx for the build/guide.

" I find lab runs absolutely torture and I remember doing about 20 of them before getting the war enchant on merciless and did not want to subject anyone to the uber version of that torment. Obviously get the uber lab version if can but glove enchants are not really a big deal. IGN: Arlianth

Can you please take a look at my character? I'm struggling to level past 89 since I keep dying in t12+ maps. I've spent quite a lot of currency but I still seem to be lacking some dps/survivability. Clearly missing something important. Maybe just more life/resists? Super enjoyable map clearing in below t12 maps though. Should I just focus on leveling? What gear needs changing?

" Your gear is quite good. Issue is all your jewels have no life on them. You'll also want one jewel with blind on hit. You should have 6200-7000 life with a belly setup. Even so, you should be obliterating T12 maps with how much dps you have. What exactly is killing you in t12 maps? Are you trying to face tank abyssal chasms? With instant leech gone you really do need to actively manage your flask and move when needed since nothing will give you enough sustain to sit in front of several mobs. This late in the league I'm not sure how expensive theyd be but you want something like this. IGN: Arlianth Check out my LA build: 1782214 Last edited by Nephalim on Jan 14, 2018, 2:05:25 PM

" Sounds good I'll look for jewel upgrades. Yeah I mostly die to buffed bosses or abyssal monsters. Those spinners just one shot me from invisibility. Also die to elemental weakness maps sometimes too. Think I need to overcap my resists a bit. DPS is not really that much of a problem most the time, but another 6L will probably help. 1k fusings in so far...Think I should swap my boots for more resist and get tombfist? |

Warding flasks will negate all curses including ele weakness. Are you properly managing your flasks? They should be effectively up 100%. Having a belt with 16%+ reduced flask charges makes world of difference and I strongly encourage every player to use one.
For bosses just blink in and barrage them to death. I can't really see a T12 boss being able to survive long enough to hit you more than once. And yes, you should be using tombfist, not bubonic. Kinectic blast videos (using basically the same gear) in progress. IGN: Arlianth Check out my LA build: 1782214 Last edited by Nephalim on Jan 14, 2018, 5:45:45 PM

Ok so after spending quite a lot of currency on this character, I have to say, I'm very happy with the outcome. By far my favorite bow build, did Shaper super comfortably, it's amazing. I'm at 6.1k life and 2 mill shaper dps. Unless the build somehow gets destroyed next league, I'm definitely doing it again. Thanks a lot for the effort you've put into making the guide and helping everyone out, OP.

Nice BD.It feels good, but if I wanna more damage, is there any bow to replace?

Upraded some equipment and jewels, now reaching 5,2m effective shaper DPS (8,47m on normal target). I'm still looking for some better boots (120 total ele resist + 80 life + 25> IMS) and would love to replace the diamond ring/lapis amulet with better ones. Also trying to get the +1 Barrage on a 2 abyss socket lightpoacher. All of this should then bring me up to around 6m DPS.
