How much do these 2 PvM bows cost?
(Detail: I play both with a frezy/strafe buid with 50 ias, 75/75/75 res, life leech 8% (Death set) and mana leech 11/14% which was enough for freenzy to be self-sufficient when it reaches the target, which made the character really fun to play by the way).

I have no idea on value without ias. .... even though your build doesn't need it

Charsi. Needs ias.

I accept your opinion, even if I disagree with it.
Because in my understanding those who need modifiers are the builds, so when it doesn't come from a weapon but can still be obtained from another equipment, this should not be considered as an irreparable defect, because by definition it is not.

Zon Normal IAS:
[10] Gothic Bow 0% 5% 11% 22% 35% 56% 89% 147% 292%

Strafe IAS:*
[10] Gothic Bow 0,3,11,26,42,46,80

It probably doesn't really have commercial value, but that's more because of the paradigms created by the community than the quality of the possible builds that would use it.

You're correct. However, it not having ias is still a big deal because it marries you to twitch + death's. With ias on the bow too, you have much more options in terms of gear for additional damage. For example, you could drop twitch and run boneflesh for nice extra damage. You could also run nice ias 9/15 gloves, a GG belt, and hawkmail instead. On a build like this where damage is a big issue, you really don't want to be married to that gear set.

Nice freezing arrow DMg

If I decide to sacrifice some leech mana and maybe some resistance, the strafe damage of this build exceeds 800 already at level 86!
