I dont get all the hate for sharing a unique build, your GMB faiths are still able to kill monsters don't take it out on OP.

Yeah on p1 i kill him in like 5/6 hits ! And mancatcher is really fast with 65 ias!

I think that this is the best hybrid solution

For the skill i like to have 70 crit at least, then max guided (i don’t use it but for dmg on multi), point until 24 arrows on multishot, then rest in strafe

Ty! And all good. We are on jsp after all haha



So I did like 20 P8 Chaos Solo tonight with GMB Mist on me, Faith 15 on Merc, Mancatcher Infinity on offhand for cs boss.

The result is a bit disappointing.

The biggest issue is the lack of eth reapers merc. When I use faith, I always have eth reapers merc because they make the run much safer by tanking and decriptifying the Frontline no matter how heavy the mobs are.

Faith merc is absolute garbage. I tried so hard to like them many times before. But they just are so useless. P8 runs require physical bowa to standstill and shoot for several seconds. But with faith merc and boosted Valkyrie's, I can't shoot standing still because keeps getting pushed back.

I died 3 times in 20 runs tonight. I never die on my usual faith telebowa spec which clears P8 Chaos solo under 3 minutes every time.

A bit disappointing.

Mancatcher Infinity on switch was very interesting. I put 44 points on jav side. Just maxed CS and Light Stirke.

P8 Diablo took 9 seconds.

In comparison, with my rare 2zon 2jav 30ias rare javelin, it took 10 seconds to kill P8 Diablo with 64 points invested in jav side. Maxed CS Light Boly and Power Strike.

So the Infinity definitely does a ton more damage. BUT not sure if it's worth not having spirit shield and wiz on offhand. Which always makes the runs much safer while tele not to mention super quick teleports on offhand.

I sold my full zon for 3rd time this week and barely regeared this one so I'm missing about 160 life from max ar life charms but the Mist experiment might be a failed one.

The key difference was the merc choice.

Nice ty for the report!

I think faith shadow setup and mancatcher on switch could be the way to go. For fast tele games (such as fast baalruns) maybe ts (or rare) + spirit is still better.

I don’t really like mist (imho is more like a temp weapon before faith)

Yes. My verdict on Mist was a stepping stone bow before Faith. I ran Mat Bow Mist with 145IAS without Faith early ladder for fun and it was great. Cleared p1 chaos under 2 mins with not much stuff on her. That was great.

Then I had the greatest idea of running GMB Mist with faith because Mist had 20IAS which would allow me to use GMB high ed from Mist with Atma ammy AND 100% pierce. Which were 2 points I hated about GMB Faith bowzon.

But it just might not be good enough. I tried many gear changes while doing these P8 runs tonight and they all were underwhelming and made me frustrated playing.

I never feel frustrated when I play my usual faith spec. P8 is rather smooth with Mat or Shadow faith and reapers merc.

Mist might be nice for frost maiden hybrid but that would need to be in Mat Mist not GMB Mist because need to run infinity merc so no faith ias boost.

I will hunt another Shadow or Mat Faith and do hybrid with mancatcher infinity! Gonna respec for it.

And yes tstroke and spirit or rare 4/30 javelin might be the way to go for baal runs.

Ty for this, I'm trying to gear my bowa, I play on HC so I was keen on using mist bow for the rez. What's your take or gear choices for HC? Since rez is so important and maybe sorb too. Also, is mist worth it to make if you have the runes or is wf better? While grinding for faith runes ofc

I loved Mat Mist. It was very cheap and effective.

Treachery, gskull 2 socket, catseye. Loh and nos belt put you at 7 frame without Faith.

And use reapers might merc. I had naj staff in switch for teleport.

This was VERY good for the rune cost. The Mist does have really good vitality and all res boost so I would highly recommend for HC while gathering resource for Faith.

I can confidently say that I don't die with my faith telebowa spec. I always have 800 life with charms and enough vitality points. My res is mostly always in red. But with reapers merc and 1 point wonder on freezing arrow and wizspike and eth Monarch Spirit spec, it's almost impossible to die.

I don't plan on playing HC but if I were to play. I would gear up the same but boost life up to 1000.

Naj staff for teleport was to reposition reapers merc. This is very important.

Kimsulki84 - D2R Mat Faith Frost Maiden Telebowa - P8 Chaos Solo Clear

Was playing with GMB Mist+Faith Merc with Mancatcher Infinity CS Hybrid build but that was a failed attempt.

Respec to Faith Frost Maiden that I loved in NL for fun.

Still pretty strong build. A bit different from physical bowzon build but this is very fun to play.

For Solo, use 2Zon/18FCR ammy for faster teleport.

Maybe it's just me, but seeing a bow zon clear chaos, solo, is crazy to me. Love this whole post, can't wait to try my own!
