I want to start a new PVM char that shouldn't cost too much overall. No too expensive RWs like Eni, Infy, etc.

The Bowazon I would play with WF (without Faith). The werewolf with Ribcracker. Both chars with Forty.

Is Bowazon playable without Faith at all?

Yes.

You need 89 IAS

Atma or Cat's eye
Windforce Shael
Fortitude
Layind of hand
Raven Frost
life leech ring
String of ears
War travelers

You have 60 IAS there, your need either 30 in helm (giant skull/mavina anything with 2 IAS jewels)

Now, if you use pride on your merc, you use Atma as amu, if Pride is to expensive then you use reaper on merc and cat's eye, and you only need 10 IAS in helm (something like Kira with a 15IAS jewel to fix your resist could do the job).

Then you add as much max damage/ar charms as you can, they don't need to be expensive, get around 1k life rest in to dex, harmony switch and you are ready to go, farm A85 don't try to kill bosses.

WF is surprisingly strong. One of the few uniques that have survived the "runeword apocalypse" and are still relevant. I certainly had a lot of fun playing WF bowazon back in the day
