So shaped KB was on sale and decided i'd give it a try. Here are the items i came up with so far (everything is self crafted). Are they in the okay-tier ? Or should I reroll one of these items ? I'm asking for budget-ish reasons

They look fine; if you're slightly undercapped it's nothing that a bit of res on belt or a jewel won't solve. I recommend a shield with a flexible open suffix for u to choose between double damage or %resist.

I'd probably divine the wand a bit more, you sorta want close to 13% atk speed and 16% pen, since each % is equivalent to 1% more damage. the %phys roll I'd say go for 120%+, and the flat phys try to keep it within the top 70%+ of the roll range.

Oh wait, how come you mastercrafted T2 crit chance + qual on your wand? You should have gone with T1 crit chance (25-27% instead) if you were low on currency. It's too late to fix that without dumping lots of ex, just curious about the decision.

Oh F just saw it aswell, I guess i was too excited to craft it because i dumped 1800 alts to get that t1 flat phys after annuling :c Those few percents are really that important ? I can make myself a goal to craft a new one and sell this one for a bit cheaper later I guess

I guess don't worry about it. The dps difference won't be that much maybe 3-4% is my guess, or perhaps less. Assuming you geared up correctly and don't cut too many corners it shouldn't matter at all.

I managed to complete my gear on about 15 ex, it's on budget/decent tier i find, and i'm already kicking t12-13 maps, so happy with the build!
I was thinking of upgrading my amulet and rings next

Very nice, you probably also want to increase your Precision to lvl 21 since you have almost no other source of flat accuracy atm, and you should go for 20/20 gems for Barrage setup. the qual matters a good amt for dps.

For amulet, if the base is too expensive, you could always craft multiple budget amulets, divine them to decent rolls and try your luck turning them to talismans via Jorgin tier 2 Research. In theory you could end up with an amulet thats a bit better than the 3 ex version and there isnt that much RNG involved

Sorry for double post. Just wanted to announce that I'm done writing the guide on phys conversion bows. Over the next few days I'll streamline it as much as I can. I also plan on modifying the wander guide some more to make it easier to read, trim down on the wording etc, as well as add some better trade links, especially for the shield section.


As a side note, everyone should use Glacial Cage anointments on their rings. Those towers enhance our KB dps by a lot due to explosions bouncing around within the cage, sorta like pre-nerf Frost Wall. The best anointment is enemies take 10% damage within the cages of course.

Good luck guys

Good Afternoon sir

I would like to ask you about the section "Min-Max"

Will this section be added to this build-guide

I wrote a separate wander guide for rich standard players. It's nearly finished but is still somewhat a work in progress. Here is the link.

This is very expensive, at least 400-500 exalts for "budget" min-max, and ~2000-3000 exalts investment at the top end, but you can reach ~50mil-100mil Shaper DPS.

Not sure if that's what you were looking for.

followed this pob: 3.8 Blight League Real POB (Kinetictee lvl 96; more investment)

but dmg is 'only' 3.2 mil compared to his 10 mil. can you help?

Something tells me you didn't bother reading the guide since all the issues with your setup has been specifically addressed in it. I don't want to spend too much time repeating what I've already written so here's a short list of issues.

- using some weird unique shield instead of dps + high resist shield. Never recommended this nor did Kinetictee use it.

- most of your jewels are not good for this build, mainly the abyss ones

- you aren't using a Watcher's Eye??? and no Lethal pride??

- you're using an ele wand, not a phys one? Also you crafted the wrong %cold mod but oh well. If you continue to use ele wand, you need to get a flat cold hatred watcher's instead of conversion and no phys reflect maps.

- Lightpoacher is bad for this build, never recommended this nor did Kinetictee use it.

- belt has low WED, and missing flask effect, so you are wasting 6 nodes on the tree for no reason.

some gems aren't leveled based on what I wrote in the guide.

- no flat cold enchant on boots


etc etc. all the above issues can be fixed by reading the guide.
