I wanted to make a pure bowzon for fun, although I'm not naive enough to believe it will be hugely successful.

Weapon: Rogue's Bow nef'd
armor: ?
helmet: ?
boots: cowkings boots (or maybe sanders???)
glvoes: death's gloves
belt: deaths belt
ammy: angelics / eye of etlich
ring1: angelics / stat mana ring
ring2: stat mana ring

Still not sure whether I'm going to hell-rush this char or not.

Skills: ???
Stats: All dex?

I've recently tried this and found that it wasn't hugely successful. However I didn't mess around with trying to max dex so I dont know if you will have and luck. as far as armor and helm go i'd say maxer'd twitch and a maxer'd mask. that keeps the strength reqs pretty low and you'll meet the 75 ias bp(although i guess twitch isn't require to get the bp). one of the main problems i had was running out of mana. so unless you have some godly mana charms, you will run out as well. As far as your jewelry goes i'd say the eye of etlich and the stat mana rings might be your best bet. possibly a manald heal ring in the other slot to leech a little and rep life, but thats up to you. i would definitly hell rush because you're not going to be killing anyone real fast so dodge and avoid will probably help out.

Here's how my skills went out

3 to GA and prereqs (3 total for prereqs)
12 Critical strike
9 dodge
4 avoid

that brings you to 31 total skill pts which is what you would have after a hell rush.

and as far as stats go I ca't say whether or not it is worth the pts into dex or not. if you go with the dex build then stick with the cow king boots.

if you have some good maxer charms under 20 id use those too.(duh)

it's a tricky build, but i feel it could work. i just didn't have great charms and the patience to see whether a life or dex build worked better.

good luck

Hmm. I figured I would need as much damage as possible, so I didn't want to get a twitch (I already have the 75% bp with bow + deaths). For my helm, I'm considering getting a skill/frw/2os circlet. Additionally, I was thinking of keeping critical strike at a lower level considering that rogue's bow already has 30% ds.

Thanks for your input.

You could use a 4os jeweled armor instead of twitch, or swap deaths for bloodfists and a fhr/life belt if you want to boost fhr and life.

He's talking about a plain white 4 socket armour with the choices of: Gothic Plate, Full Plate Mail and Ancient Armor.

After fully rushing my character and leveling to 20, I've realized that Guided Arrow takes a crapload of mana. Please critique my build~

Weapon: Rogue's Bow nef'd
armor: 3 os light plate socketed +15 maxers
helmet: 3 os crown/max with +15 maxers
boots: cowkings boots
glvoes: death's gloves
belt: deaths belt
ammy: angelics (not sure on jewelry atm, angelic set gives nice bonuses although I don't need AR at all)
ring1: angelics
ring2: stat mana ring
mana/life scs
7% frw/mana gcs

Skills (31 points):
1 magic arrow
1 multiple shot
1 cold arrow
3 guided arrow
7 critical strike (not too much because rogue's bow gives deadly strike)
9 dodge
8 avoid
and one skill point left over (penetrate ??)

stats:
pure dex for damage

I prefer Sanders. 10 dex might help with your situation =P

Idunno if you'll go for this or not, but I think maybe Bladebuckle for another 10 dex? keep deaths in inv for problematic ppls I suppose =P

What % on dodge and avoid? I'm thinking maybe you went overboard lol A few more in CS wouldn't hurt. Also, I wouldn't say Penetrate seeing as you're GA, not Multi, so AR = poo.

2x manalds may be better than stat/mana, or you can find 2x mana leech, stat/mana. Would have to be a pretty not good rare, but it's doable if I'm not mistaken.

Honestly, I refuse to keep adding points into D/A after they stop getting 2% per lvl. 1 skill for 1%? nty. Even if it's not 50%, don't waste 4 skills from 46 to 50 ffs. It's 4% get over yourself @.@

Slow Missles may have been a neat choice for casters, I'm not gonna say remake, but if you choose to, I would def. reccomend Etlich for ammy and 1 point into Slow Missles (and minimal d/a) 2x manald, Sanders, and lots and lots of luck =P

I'd think cowkings boots would be better like he's using cause the ar from sanders wont be of much use. 20dex> 10dex+5str

angelics are not a bad choice because you should have some javs and a shield on switch anyway, and youll need the ar for the javs and the life bonus is unbeatable...so penetrate may not be a bad idea either.
