How good is

for this build?

For me, those are a pretty good pair of gloves. I'd use them to specifically farm for cards in Sub-T6 maps. The problem as I see it, is the monster damage and chance to hit jumps a little when you start into the yellow tier maps. If you are playing carefully these would continue to work and be really strong, but a high rarity high life pair of gloves will suit the build better into the mid and above tiers of maps.

So for MF what belt use ? And amu Bisco is bis ?

The belt slot in this build guide is utilized to gain resistance and very high live rolls to make up for the resistance loss and lack of life in the ring spots. A tri-resist with life leather belt is recommended (an open prefix for movement wouldn't hurt either). If you were to lean more towards MF than survival you could evaluate either Perandus Blazon or Bisco's Leash.
The Amulet would be a Shaper gold amulet with rarity, life, quantity, and a needed resistance. Yes for most MF builds Bisco's is best in slot for the single focus of MF. Keeping your life pool higher and resistance balance are a little more important in a Damage over Time build, where you cannot kill the monsters any quicker.

--But--

Overall the the goal of the build guide is a balance between MF and survival, if you want to eschew one for the other, go for it.

Serleth, chime in with math, or if I explained anything poorly...

what ist with the lvling can you make a lvling guid to this guid ?

No, sorry. Leveling guides are constantly changing as new skills and uniques are introduced to the game, and it became very aggravating to keep updating basically two guides for one build.

That said, Raiz put together a very good overall guide for leveling bow characters that should still be pretty current.

I played this build in like 2.6 or mso.. is it end game viable in 3.3?

Up to about t13 maps or so pretty comfortably. T15 if you've got some moves.

While it can do Shaper/Uber Atziri, it's REALLY difficult. You have to play pretty much perfectly with the way this build is constructed. Do not recommend.

CA's fallen behind in power level since about 3.0. Needs a buff.

Grats on another 40/40 Serleth!

Thanks.

It'll be my last.

The increasingly long grind to 40 is taking away from my enjoyment of the game. By the time I'm done with it these days, I'm done with the leagues, even good ones like Incursion. Just burnt out. No desire to push new characters or builds or try funky farming strats or anything.

I was thinking the same thing.

40/40 should be challenging and fun - and not something that seems like a job. I thought that GGG struck a really good balance between fun and tedium for 40/40 about 4 leagues ago. Wished they would have kept that balance.

Agreed. Harbinger was the last good league, imho, as far as challenges go.

GZ Serleth.
