Frenzy merc has terrible ar. He needs ar buffs to be good (fana, enchant, how, etc).

On my tesladin, he is a monster due to conviction aura.

The 2.4 Bowa Buff is real.

No need to go hybrid for 2.4 as a bowa to run things the quickest. Pure bowa spec is totally viable even for the boss.

Strictly for PvM:

Telebowa>>>>>Runner 100% as usual.
Shadow/Diamond/Mat>>>>>>GMB 100% as usual.


It's 2022. Let's not run around with expensive FRW charms and Fort or fancy 60/160 Armors.

No other spec is faster than Telebowa.

Stats: Str for Gear. Vitality for +700. Full Dex after.
Skills: Max GA, Multi, Crit, Penetrate. 1 on each Passive.
Gears: Shadow/Diamond/Mat, Enigma, 20FCR/3OS (3x1515 or 3x1540), 2/18FCR Ammy for P1 ATMA for P8, WT, Razor, LoH, FCR Dual Leech Ring, Raven.
Charms: Maiming (I sold my set so using usual Telebowa Max/AR/Life set), 4 5FHR/3Max SC.
Merc: Pride for P1, Eth Reapers for P8, Eth Fort or CoH, Eth Andy

Then the leftover points are free to use.

Shadow/Diamond are the best since you can run Atma+Razor. Mat Faith is a very close behind those two. This is strictly for PvM.

GMB can't use Atma+Razor as a telebowa. GMB Faith is great for flipping for FG, that's it.

Can you do me a favor and tell me how fast you can clear cs with this build on P8? I’m strictly talking about seals and spawning D.

Ultimately what works better on swap? Mancatcher vs Thunderstroke+Spirit?

I will try it and update.

This below is my favorite p8 seal popping spec though.

Mancatcher is not good for hybrid telebowa spec. Definitely better to have spirit on swap for quicker and safer teleport.

For Mat faith hybrid, tstroke.

For shadow faith hybrid, 4/30 or 440 rare. Since you can get to 95ias bp

Ive got both mat and shadow faith now and want to try a hybrid! I guess with shadow go 20 fcr 45 ias tiara and with mat go for 2 skill 30 ias 20 fcr?

I feel like I may need infinity merc in order to make the charge strike decent especially without max synergies and no griffons. Should I try infinity instead of reapers?

For the mat faith hybrid I’m only getting 50 ias from helm and gloves, not quite hitting 95 ias then with 40 ias javelins. I guess I still need 5% more somewhere. If I do 45 ias helm then I might as well use a shadow bow for more damage right?

Let's say you only want to spend 1.5kfg on this char and her merc.

How would you do it? What gear specifically would you use for this budget version?

I’d go for a low rolled faith for merc. Then wear a windforce with shael probably.

Just make sure faith has 13+ aura.

Definitely should use shadow if you have Shadow and get 65ias as usual.

Then you can use 430 rare jav to hit 95ias bp for cs.

With 1 synergy maxed, you and reaper merc should down p8 diablo at 10 seconds.

Enigma 800
Magus Tiara snipe at like 350
Mat faith 13 400

I don't think you can with that budget. Bowzon isn't that budget friendly unfortunately
