Subject description: suggestions?
 

Okay i'm going to start with gear first, then skills, and finally stats.

Gear:
Bow: of course i'm lost at the start. I have two build ideas for this class.

Build one:
Ashwood bow +2 skills/ed/ias. This bow would need 2 sockets and double shaels!! The faster choice, less IAS needed to hit 8 frame attack (105%, which is doable with twitch/deaths/ias bow shaeled) but it seems like a very low damage bow, and damage seems to be the biggest challenge to overcome other than the whole no block thing.
Twitchthroe armor with a maxer inside.
2os circlet of speed. Obviously need the 30 frw% as a bowzon, i'm thinking putting damage jewels inside.
Deaths gloves
Deaths belt
30/10 rare boots with high res (Thinking i will need the res from these because i only get 15% from deaths)

Build two:
Gothic bow 80-100 ED/Ias 2soc. This choice would get more damage, but would only be able to attain a 9 frame attack (90%). Also, with only 90 ias needed you could skip out on one shael in the bow and go with an ed/max or ed/-req.
Twitch armor with str/dex jewel or ruby or max in it
2soc circlet of speed with maxers
death glove
death belt
boots 30/10/resists

Jewelry: also stumped here. i'm thinking however going with str/dex rings with the 50 poison dmg mod on them. For the amulet however i dont know at all.'

On switch: Shaeled sigon shield and +1 amazon javs for better block rate, max block, and better dodge.

Charms: split between fine small charms and life scs. get as many max/ar/lifers as is possible on a short budget.


Skills:
max out guided, 1 into all prereqs. 6 dodge/avoid/evade, rest into multi.

Stats:
Str: enough for geaar
Dex: enough for gear (Which will cover block on switch)
Vita: rest
Enrg: none

Okay, any suggestions on where i've been sketchy?

Or you could use an upped Rogue's Bow..

The Arreat Summit wrote:
Two-Hand Damage: (5-6) To (11-12) (8-9 Avg)
Required Level: 20
Required Strength: 25
Required Dexterity: 35
Base Weapon Speed: [-10]
+40-60% Enhanced Damage (varies)
+100% Damage to Undead
30% Deadly Strike
50% Increased Attack Speed
+60 to Attack Rating
All Resistances +10


With a maxer or something in it. That way, you would only need 25 more ias that you could get from Death's, and use a Viper for more res or a Peace for skills.

Ashwood bows can have +3 skills.

What i used on mine was a +3skill 5os Ashwood bow, with 3 Shaels, one nef (knock back is definitely a HUGE plus) and one 15 maxer. If you have/can get a higher maxer use that.

For your ammy, you want a 1 amazon skills ammy with other good mods (not sure exactly what else you need on it Sad )

For your Shield, consider something socketed with ITH/ETH runes for addition DTM. At the rate your firing arrows (11 Frames) you will burn through your mana like a beast. When your switched you will want to be able to regenerate mana.

For Charms, you can use 9-10 max 60+ ar 10+ life GCs. You might want to get them with +6 STR/DEX as you will be able to use the 6 stats to gain more life then they would give you. The lifers are cheaper then the scs, and the stat ones are cheaper then the lifers.

Then you will need to get some max/ar/lifers or other nice SCs to fill up the bottom row of your inventory.

Once again, i loved my bowa, but she burned through so much mana so fast it was ridiculous. Just beware of the mana. Not something you tend to worry about on a bowa. A 3x ETH shield would help you regenerate your mana much faster.

For starters I would use an upped rogues (nef'd) and a 3 soc lifer armor with maxers, then when you can get the jewels go for a 5 soc ashwood with 20/15's/shaels/nef

you will do better with 9 frame ashwood than 8 frame, before you ask.

deaths gloves+sash, sanders boots, 2x sojs, and a rare zon ammy with stats/res/etc...

personally i would use a shael'd swordback hold on switch, but most people prefer an artisans kite of deflection with shaels/eths and pair that with some nice eth/rep harpoons
