you're pvm, what's the use? wts have far better pvm stats period (and a nice mf bonus)

you're applying pvp eq to a pvm char

hmm ok, i use harmony for running though

just wondering cos with your setup you can't have more than 500 life or so
that means instant kills if you get hit (in many cases)

The use is ofc, faster killing. So what if I use "PvP" equipment for this?? LOL, some items are just as good for PvM. And the PvP bowamaz I have seen dont use Gores. We disagree on this, thats all.




This setup doesnt have much life, and it doesnt need it. The only thing that Instakill me are Souls and this is not the only build that gets killed by souls. You will leech fast enough to not die, this build gives you fastest attack and high daage good leeching. Even if you are sorrounded in CS.

no no no

i have a lvl 97 cs runner on eu ladder (#199), did 1000+ cs runs and i can easily tell you you have no chance to survive with 500 life in a cs run PARTICULARLY if swarmed

if you catch amplify and get hit by anything in cs you easily take more than 500 dmg a hit = instant death for you
no matter what you say, and no matter how safe you play, you will take hits
for that reason, 20 life scs are extremely important since they raise your life to about 900-1000 (i have 933) which makes playing MUCH more enjoyable

i never would have leveled my char to 97 without extra life

extra speed from charms doesnt matter, you have harmony for that i can easily outrun extra fast infector with harmony bow up

I have 521life. I have not yet suffered instakills, except vs souls. This isnt a 'paper' build, I play this character. And belive me when I say that I have no problem soloing CS in 8player games, this char I have used for running CS-games.

i know this guide is based around faith merc, btu wouldnt act 2 merc with might, and also hold pride, so youll get 2 major dmg boosters there, and then u can use faith

Yes, that is also an Amazon build. But the advantage with this build is that its higher damage at higher level and your merc will not die as often as a A2 in Chaos Sanctuary.

Q) how long does it take you to kill immune physical with this build? (note, not using Magic Arrow Skill)

Just thinking equip Ice Brand or Wrath for an option.

Those are ok bows to have on switch, but when strafing Amp goes off fairly fast. It takes seconds.

Low life+shit evades?? Rest seems gg

Nice guide. Tho maxing strafe seems a bit overkill. Specially difficult if you have a dodge or avoid triggering at the beginning of the animation. Wont ever strafe when getting crowded for that reason. Better is to have higher evades, dodge and avoid and use multi as your main skill imho.
