and its better than harmony?

Don't listen to lilith0, he never brings anything constructive, and just talks crap to and about anything he can to get attention. Listen to us experienced users that actually plays the game and knows what works and what don't. I can show you in game if you want, do a chaosrun if you want to see for yourself.

listen to lilith0
you should be grateful he responded to your post as this gets asked very frequently.

that is the best setup

you dont need res/DR or any of that. You should not be getting hit, you need a ring with life leech/mana leech.
go with NM act 2 offensive merc with Pride runeword

I have a great PvM bowzon, but slightly diff setup. pm me if you want to see.

Why don't you just post your setup here? Maybe i/we'll learn something.

You don't need resistances?? You'll get one-shot by a group of oblivion knights before you know it. Sounds like you've never played the game before. Of course you shouldn't get hit, but being able to take the occasional blow is crucial for the gameplay value. I am talking about hc, but also in sc, it is nice to be able to tank at least a few hits.

Even griswold one-hit ko'ed me last ladder, 1100 health and cursed. I got cocky and thought i could tank him.

The slowest monster in the game, and you let him hit you being a bowazon?



This, listen to Listen to lilith0

i have 595hp, i never die.
i can withstand the occasional 1 hit, but usually im hitting them while i get hit so i just rep
after a lot of testing, this is my build


120/45/30frw helm
Faith of Ice GMB
Fort
Atmas scarab ammy
Laying of Hands gloves
Ravenfrost
95AR/7ll/6ml/17str/30 fire res ring
war travs
nos coil belt

switch - harmony bow

merc - act 2 nm offensive(might) Pride, andy helm, fort

inventory - tome tp, torch, anni, arrows quiver, 32x 3max/ar/3frw sc's

595HP
75 fire res/75poison res/15@ light/cold

Bow - 20 magic arrow, 20 pierce, enough for 24 arrows on multi, rest in guided
Passive - 18 crit, 20 pierce, 1 in rest
jav- none


you could switch (atmas + nos coil) for (razor + cats eye), but I maxed pierce and am at 90% pierce. It seems to work for me
or you could go nos+cats and regular faith gmb. This is what I'd do if I couldnt afford a Faith of Ice GMB

wf is basically best in slot, ex-aequo with faith diamond/shadow
it's better than everything else

You know, that's just the flow of the game. It almost never happens that i let someone get that close. Just that one time it happened, and that's why didn't respect it enough. Which got me killed. That's how you learn in HC, which is why i love HC. I am very good at it too, almost never get close calls/dips. You gotta learn somehow.
