~~~~~~~~~ GUIDE REVISION - 04/28/2010 ~~~~~~~~~

Since posting the Vitality Bow Amazon guide over two years ago I have been meaning to revise a few things. These revisions are based on hundreds of helpful comments posted here as well as years of experimenting with various gear and dueling techniques.

1) Keep titans + SS in your stash and make sure you have enough dex for max block for dueling smiters/chargers and various other characters that require the ability to block. I didn’t include this in the original build; however, it is probably the most effective way for a bowzon to beat a smiter/charger.

2) I have received many comments about putting the cube in your inventory and keeping a cta in there. Titans + SS would become your regular weapon switch and the cta would just replace the titans for a few seconds while you cast BO. The advantage of this is that it removes the hassle of constantly returning to your stash to switch between cta + spirit and titans + SS. The disadvantage is that you loose +2 skills from your BO level (+120 life) and 4x sc from your inventory (+120 life & +120 dmg).

3) I now recommend using faith made in a 0 base speed bow such as diamond, ward or shadow bows as an alternative option to the GMB. These bows require 65% ias to hit 7 frames instead of the 92% ias required by GMB. Your dmg per arrow will be less with these bows but you will get to shoot at 7 frames instead of 8 frames with GMB. To do this you will need to use 20% ias kb gloves.

XDDDDDDDDDD

Yeah, what a big deal to improve a guide by experiences of others in a topic that has been using for more than 2 years.
Besides that, he suggested some of his changes in the beginning already :blush:

Very nice guide, I like your ideas. The only problem with 8fpa might be that peoples fhr will allow them to recover in the time between your shots, compared to 7fpa. But I dont know if it makes that much of a difference.

and its shitty as fuck

"originality" is not a good excuse for garbage builds
doesnt really matter if its a same or different item build, duels are not done with item builds
