thanks.

was looking also for another build for main skill (how does bola shot ones works?) for pve.


bola shot isn't bad for higher mp, but since you wanna do low MP you might find it to be a waste. More than 50% of the time, your secondary skill will clear the mobs before your bola explosion even goes off! Spray of teeth is usually good, but if you were looking for another main then you could do a number of things. If you rely on your secondary skill a lot and want to use that one mainly then you can choose a hatred generator for ur main skill such as grenades + tinkerer or entangling shot + justice is served.

Hungering /w devouring, entangling shot /w shock collar or chain gang, and grenades /w cluster were also fun skills I played around with in low mp aside from Hungering /w spray of teeth. Also, entangling /w shock collar and hungering /w cinder arrow are two DH skills that proc the KB from wf the most. You could use either of those for fun if you enjoy seeing monster try to get close to you, only to be pushed right back.

thanks again.

just updated my base gear on profile, its this: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Rmc-1926/hero/2324823

195k dps without steady aim.

looking to improve boots,pants,bow,quiver and rings.

for higher mps, ar is pretty needed right? i've got around 250 only.

Yeah. Armor is also an important stat. On my DH, I have always followed the rule of: 10 armor per 1-1.5 res.

I was always fine farming mp4-5 with 400 AR, but most chars do like 500AR+ when they farm mid MP levels. For MP 0-3, 300 is fine.

dh's with bola volatile explosives and echoing blast spike traps is just pure rape

only critting 600k's on my spikes and 200-300;s on bola

with manticore. and have 2aps with manticore, but aps does not effect spike trap speed

cluster arrow - cluster bombs, since the ubers are fat and they got hit by a lot of bombs. or spike trap is also good.
get vault(or smoke screen) against kulle's bubble, shadow power for lifesteal, use the hatred generator you like
rest 2 can be: bat companion, caltrop - bait the trap, guardian turret, spitfire turret
passives: night stalker, grenadier(/custom engineering), archery

or you can try something like this: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/demon-hunter#ecYVhg!Xhe!cbcZZZ
rapid fire will keep the lifesteal from shadow power if you don't stop shooting.
2 aps might spend your hatred too fast, just test it on MP10 ghom to see if you can use this build in ubers.
haven't done testing on gear requirements but it's doable.
maybe even spitfire turret instead of chakram is possible with legacy nat and low attackspeed.

Legacy nat is bis.
Without a doub.
If You're rich enogh, good legacy set is like -10-15% k dps in comparsion to new set.

I've never had any problem with my discipline without legacy nat or preparation.
If you have legacy nat, try to utilize Preparation - Punishment.
