I have faith gmb 12/2, fort, valkery, titans and spirit mon.

Is hybrid zon a good boss killer?

Do I use cs for main Java skill and multi for bow or strafe?

Not sure which route to go

Andy's helm or 120/45 is a solid helm choice, check bow ias tables to hit highest bp.

If Merc has infinity, you'll basically only use bow for immunes/crowd control with 1 pt FA

If Merc has reapers, then multi/strafe will be more effective and you'll split time between bow jav

Use CS for bosses, it is great even when not fully synergized

I typically ran with bow side and shit FA to freeze crowds then depending on immunity if monsters, continue to Multi or strafe them. If cold immune, swap to java and either chuck fury at them or engage with CS, letting Merc/valk engage first to distract mobs.

This build was called a gunslinger, and I think there is a decent guide on another site with lots of gear options. Google gunslinger Java D2 or something and you'll find it.

Hope this helps!

Pure Java kills faster, and no need to use bow basically.

Must: Infinity (conviction), Tele

Tele, mobs are under conviction aura, LF. Done.

(Tbh, I prefer Lightning Strike over LF but most ppl use LF)

Sometimes you face light immunes then you might want to use Jab.

Light AND physical immunes are a bit problem but high dmg from uppd eth Titan (and massive ED from Phoenix in my case) take care of them. Well, it will take seconds to kill them sometimes.

At this point, you can switch to Witchwild String (upped and Ohm x 2), which doesn't require any skills or arrows.

Oh, use Griffon's if you're poor, or use 2 or 3 socked circlet if you're rich.

As for bosses, just a couple of CS's.

Don't get me wrong, I love Bowazon and have been making an elemental dmg Bowazon these days. Yes, I love Bowazon.

But Javzon is way faster.

Hybrid zon is good for pvp. Not pvm

For pvm, javazon is significantly better.
