Yes! Tstroke is actually better than titan for this since it's better dmg vs bosses.

Reapers is totally fine. I use reapers instead of pride merc sometimes.

But yes sooooo fun to play. I've been playing my bowzon for like 2 weeks straight haha I have other good chars but can't play them


yep much fun to play. you have a rough idea on avg dmg with pride? is it worth it? would be my next step in the line..

and yeah, feel it, have a sorc waiting for a rush but cant be bothered at all

im at like 4500 with multishot i think? That's with gores and atma and razortail on.

Pride is worth it but if you play on full party a lot, you can just use Eth Reapers with gface and eth treachery! Just as effective in gameplay. For solo, pride is easy since you just melt everything with 1-2 shots with pride

hi kimsulk84 - you arent the only one who does this :D

im level 95 (hardcore side) and I love this build except I don't use strafe - just points to multishot for max arrows - then everything else into synergies for charged strike / lightnings fury ... oh yeah far right column in passive tree 1 point each

heres a vid of me killing stuff at 94

I was using highlords in that vid... I don't use atmas because I read somewhere it only gets applied to the middle arrow for multi shot. However, now that I just hit 95 I think I am done leveling and I just stick to cows...therefore I am using cat's eye for the run speed.

using your inspirational vid i did a theorycrafted build in d2planner
in my quick tests wf + faith a1 merc is better than faith + pride/might a2 merc

negligible diff dmg for multi shot, but for charged strike the first setup will hit double amount of the second one
and much less costly too, due to nn of only 1 rw with hrs weapon

The HybridZon ➢ Bow/Javazon
feel free to check and point any possible upgrades ^ ty ppl

edit: @scarygary
never heard such thing, if you can link some info about this issue i would be glad to check more in-depth =P

For me it is just faith feels better in the hands of the zon. It's mainly a quality of life thing. Also the mass summons that spawn from kills is very helpful DC protection in hardcore. Not to mention you get tons of free skill points (which allow for more points delegated to charged strike buffing) and the extra resistances as well. I am also not a huge fan of knockback as well but this is all just personal preference...

I heard that too but I'm pretty sure all my multishot procs atma! It's my favorite gear and that's why I use Mat over GMB!

WT and Gores are all good. I play in full party more so I'd like to mix in some gore dmg affixes. Sometimes I use gface in the mix too.
