D4rk50ul's DH Consultation Service


We have a quite a few top end Demon hunters in our service and I thought it would be cool to offer some advice to those looking to upgrade or who are just simply stuck on what to do next with their characters. Please do not PM me with questions, just post them here and I or someone else will respond to you individually. Please include a link to your diabloprogress and also your goal for your character (high dps/glass, survivable, etc).

I have also done a ton of pre-builts for people I know and may start offering that service to the public for a fee. I will use my expertise in building DH's suited for many different purposes to custom design a gear set for you that not only will save you money, but will produce results that add up to much more than the gold invested.

Fees for the builds/upgrades will be on an individual basis and very fair. Keep in mind that if you are going for Top tier it will take awhile to find the proper pieces at the right prices, mid ranged characters can be built very rapidly depending on the market.

Advice is free just post your Diabloprogress link and what hurdle you can't seem to get over, or don't say anything and we can help you get the most bang for your buck by just looking at your current setup.

Hey thanks for doing this. I like playing a balanced style and eventually looking towards building towards PvP.

Get a double rolled dex/vit Nat's embrace and a new nat's ring to replace your right side ring. You will gain tons of Life to raise your EHP and +7 Crit from the bonus, which means you don't need to get crit on the ring you can go for stats or crit damage. Don't sacrifice Vit.

I was just checking the AH and I can easily buy both for under 27mil just shop around and get the best dex/vit/life% on the embrace as you can and tailor the ring to suite you. Physical res is a decently cheap resistance you can get that helps vs reflects, or more dex/vit/cd/life%.

Well gear wise its kind of tough you need to pickup Dex and crit chance, dex being the most important as it will give you tons of dodge/base damage so it helps you both ways. Your bracers would be a great place to pickup dex. If you play with a calculator a bit you might be better off with a crazy rare dex/vit/allres belt (cheap now) and a blackthornes ammy if you can get one with the right rolls.

Skill wise I see what you are doing but you might want to consider a change.

Hungering Arrow - Cinder rune or ANY Bola shot will proc Nightstalker and Mark of death like crazy and do a lot more damage than Entangling shot.

Scatter traps are more cost effective than echoing blast as you get an effective room clearing skill.

Numbing traps is pretty bad I have tested it a few times and its very iffy if it even works, I'd swap in Archery for sure to get that 10% crit. You can also use custom engineering for the ability to put out 6 spike traps for 60 hatred and 3 sentries for very effective dps.

Use the Guardian Turret or the Vigilant, depending on if you want 15% DR or faster deployment for DPS.

Shuriken cloud is horribly short ranged, Jagged spike caltrops still procs a little bit and would give you a slow to deal with fast mobs and also deal damage. You could also swap in the Boar pet for 15% resistances or the Bat so you can spam spike traps. If all else fails Rain of Vengeance Beastly Bombs is a GREAT way to do mass damage to a pack for free every 30 seconds.

im aimin for 1.6k+loh/2k life regen
also shuriken gives me great disc regen. i stand still entire time
boar pet dies above mp3 too fast
i do use rov with the stun as its best cc in the game but mostly use chakram to gain disc to run through white mobs
i also swap numbing traps for archery in and out for different setups
coeff of chains is 75% x2 for loh

and jagged has no coeff so it says

for the way the build works i bring everything next to me n spam echo move to next group etc
