Hrm. Could probably build one that farms MP5-7 fairly well and can survive MP10 decently while doing damage, its hard to say until you get into specifics on what you want. Some really want to run dual wield, some xbows, etc. Also depends on the amount of time you have to gather the gear as sniping on the AH is the best way to get the best prices.

I've thrown together some pre-patch DH's for REALLY cheap that did very well, the game is easier now just more HP to burn through.

well , what do you suggest? 2x 1 hand cross bow or manticore + dead man? more the most effective mp10 and mp5-7 farming?

I was thinking of getting nats helm ( with cc and os) + armor ( res?) + ring ( ias + cc or cd) + inna's pants +Ice Climbers (with frw) + vail ward + (debating to have inna's belt or witching hour) + ammy and rings im not sure yet . Brace prob a lucni or strong arms and a trifacta gloves (or a good sage one) + manticore and dead man .

Or i can go with andy+3 os the inquisitor

any suggestions?

As you can see, I've been upgrading to MF while trying to keep my DPS the same. Also replaced vault recently for gloom and am trying to get used to that for RD. I play MP3 act 3 regularly, with the occasional organ runs with my friends.

This is my DH.

Decent gear, I can farm MP3 smoothly but anything over MP5 and I'm screwed.

Only have about 2mil right now. I also own a Manticore which I was previously using. I like Windforce cause of the attack speed.

I'm slowly upgrading my gear through farming and sniping the AH.

Any advice on a build to pick? I'd prefer to use Windforce.

Well if you are going top end I would probably go Manticore + Dead Mans, Witching Hour (Inna's is Better for Phys damage weapons), Either Rare/Depth Digger pants, Lacunis, Ice Climbers, Nat's Ring + Chest, Andariel / Mempo Helm, Trifecta Gloves, Dmg/Dex/Vit/Trifecta 2nd ring + ammy. This of course is a 5+billion adventure.

Bracers.. Absolutely find Allres on a similar or better set.

Evasive fire is bad, you will burn up your discipline on accident if the mob presses you I'd try ANY of the other hatred builders. Switch from Smoke Screen to Shadow Power Gloom its much more discipline effective. Cluster arrow shooting stars might be a better nuke it hits for more overall damage than LFB.

As far as gear you are at a very early stage. You really need to stack some life/res while raising your dex. Crit chance will allow you to get away from Sharpshooter (fake dps) and replace it with a better passive.

Depending on how much you play MF is pretty obsolete, you kill faster you gain paragon and get MF that way. I would replace Smokescreen with vault, gloom should be all you need to survive most things and if you still get one shot with it active you should step down a MP until you get stronger EHP. Go for armor/res/life.

Steady Aim if you actually keep 10m distance more than 85% of the time, tactical if you want speed to reposition, vengeance if you like lots of hatred. The build doesn't have a lot of synergies but I'm sure it would work ok, I prefer to skill with a theme that all tie into each other.

Well the Cinder rune for Hungering arrow will knock back a lot more and increase your survivability. Sharpshooter is very limiting as its fake damage, building natural crit would help a lot. I would also consider using Sentries with Vigilance rune for nice support dps they really work well with the windforce's high attack speed and huge physical damage.
