I have a 4os +3 skills GMB and I thought maybe I'd enjoy a bowzon. Is it a friendly budget class? I'm far from rich. Faith is a nice rw but expensive..I was thinking harmony in my GMB but I see them mostly in ceremonial bows.

Experts on bowzons want to get me get a start thanks

Mavina's set to start off an ice maiden build then you can farm cows and chaos until you get some good drops to transition into a faith build

He has +3 gmb for harmony, works nice with frozen arrow/immolation arrow hybrid.

Harmony by itself is too slow to do consistent dmg to take down big packs in cows and chaos. Full Mav's offers skills and more dmg and ias bonuses for an ice maiden build



he would need 20ias from amu, 20 ias from gloves and 15ias from helm to reach 35% ias bp because gmb is a slower bow

while with mavina's he can shael the bow, get 20 ias from amu and 30 from 15ias jewels in helm mav helm and chest toget 130% ias minus 10 from gmb. He'll hit the 120ias bp

I would say wf is arguably the only option bowazon has, even better than faith which can be given to merc for aura.

Is nice

I’d make a passion and have a couple tanks

Make harmony in it. You can probably do hell with it, but you must have at least some additional gear to make some kind of progress with enjoyment.

The normal gear route is

Laying of hands
Razortail
Kira's guardian
War travelers
Atma's scarab
Dual leech ring
Treachery

Use max level strafe, with guided arrow for bosses. Max valkyrie to have a somewhat reliable tank.

If you are level 63, you can use the level 23 enchant charges to boost attack rating greatly.

Angelic trio is a good ar boost option, but you will miss out on other great boosts.

If you want cheaper gear options, let me know.

I’ve wondered if the ice maiden build could work with this set-up

Kiras for res
Cats’ eye because its bis
Treachery more tankiness and ias
Melody in +3 skill ashwood or mattiachal bow for combined +6 skills and 20 ias
Laying og hands or 3/20 or 2/20 with some res and Dual or ml
Razortail
Ravenfrost + mandal heal 7 ll / Dual leach ring.

Harmony on switch for vigor annnd yeah
Later i would maybe consider a silence for that 75 res 11 mana leach and go off meta maybe. But mostly if its hardcore

Anyway this a real cheap build, could boost your
Dmg with bowskillers
