I've done this guide a few times.. though everytime i change something i didn't like the last time i used it... tongue.gif but i must recommend for those who wants to use mutli instead of strafe... get cat's eye amulet instead of atmas.... ias/frw/dex what could go wrong? ohmy.gif and when u get that ias from the amulet u can choose to sockets other items with other runes/jewels ! biggrin.gif

but 9/10 on the guide it's rly good

Some points are wrong in the guide...

5/10

What points do you mean? I have been working on a rewrite, so I am aware of some things aint the best. I would like some feedback.

There are other ways of building it, but without Atmas amulet, you have one option less vs physical immunes.

Nice setup there. But you dont have exactly mine wink.gif
I reccomend Gores and LL ring for second ring.
Why dont you have the FRW from boots in there? Now you only have from Cats eye..
And how do you get so low life? I have almost 600 with GZon.

It should be noted that Faith is more of a PvP build where 7fpa is essential, there are still many windforce pvm zons...

DoH, i forgot about the FRW from the boots, rofl.gif

Haven't completed the tables yet, I am going to only set 4 builds per table.

The life is low because I have not included the Fort 1.5 lpl, so that is like another 128, then there is no Bo, or life from other items.

GREAT build, with some minor mods you can still hit 6k damage and have about 200MF with straff.

Thanks a lot for such a great guide. I was thinking about making a bowzon and this is what I needed.

I already got the items, except torch, and just waiting on grush/ubers to start doing chaos runs!

few things befor i forget. you dont mention the use of inner sight or slow missle. both are great skills even at lvl 1 inner sight reduces enemy defense and makes them easier to hit and slow missle is great for running chaos since them knights use elemental ranged attacks. also if your concerned about phys imunes you can always slap on a dream for the holy shock aura which adds lightning dmg to your attacks so you can still strafe/multi and kill imunes without using magic arrow or cold/frozen/ice arrow. this would free up your ammy choice and you could use cats eye. i am not sure if you would still hit the break points for ias but its just a thought. and you should add the use of poison small charms even 50psn dmg scs x 10 would make a difference in dmg and killing speed. if you added a few tips of using this build i would suggest this for running chaos. i used a multi/strafe zon for chaos a while back and it didnt die often. while you travel through an unknown area use strafe to see if there are any off screen monsters. if there are you can ethe multi the that direction until you stop leaching mana or your firestorm stops going off. if you happen to run up on a group cast decoy and run back away from danger. cast your valk in the middle of the group or behind them luring them away from you. its a wonderful thing that your valk is re castable. start to multi the group until there are very few left or until you stop leaching mana. switch to strafe and finish off the rest. this keeps you from getting dodge locked/strafe locked when swarmed. you should hardly get swarmed unless you tele or keep running when you see monsters. another option is to add a few cold dmg small charms in your invo since it will freeze monsters i believe (correct me if i am wrong). also when fighting bosses a good idea would be to switch to gores if using wartravs for the crushing blow and switching to dracs for lifetap. bosses have higher defense and you might miss more with strafe life tap give a huge boost in life leach. if anything is wrong pls correct me as its been a while since ive played a bow zon.
