Torch = 3skill
Anni = 1skill
Faith = 2/3
9 skills altogether.. add 11 to max multi
Multishot maxes at 24 arrows at level 23. The most you ever need to invest in Multishot is 14 points using a glass/hybrid with +9 skills from the above gear. I find it useful versus enemies that teleport and close in in a circle around you. The spread can allow you to catch them if you aren't leading the target properly (i.e. because your ping is worse than usual and you haven't had enough time to adjust to it yet).
This build is almost exactly the same as Perfect Flame's Hybridzon which is in turn is almost identical to Tienje's Hybridzon guide. The only difference is that Perfect Flame/Tienje's build has between 1.2k and 1.4k life and is capable of realistically surviving 1x whirlwind pass with titans/ss out. It is also capable of reaching 6.4k+ GAs at 7fpa so I tend to view this type of zero vit glass cannon as being a bit obsolete.

Best alternative for helmet if you can't afford a 120/45/30 tiara?
The suffix on 3os tiaras is only really important for charm conservation and you will notice it only when you have pretty much finished your inventory and are trying to squeeze out the most life from your scs whilst maintaining an amount of frw that you are comfortable with.
On ladder 30frw on your helm = 10 x 3 frw/3 max/xx ar charms which potentially allows you to replace up to 10 of these charms for 3 max/xx ar/20 lifers so thats 200 life added from your inventory at no sacrifice to your desired frw.
120/45/20frw costs less than half the price of a 30frw although by any accounts it is still expensive (running 450 to 550fg at the moment) and that potentially saves you 6 charms or 120 life.
120/45/100 life is next and should cost less than a 20 frw. 100 life, self explanatory.
You can get Artisan's Tiaras with progressively less life but all are useful if that is all you can afford.
The baseline is 120/45 in a 3os helm with no suffix since you need the 45% IAS to hit 7 fpa. This is the absolute minimum requirement for this build but if you can get a useful suffix on the helm then thats a bonus.
Super cheap alternative is Maavina's Diadem socketed with a 40/15. Less damage but should cost less than half the price of a 120/45 tiara plus you still hit 7 fpa.
