but one more question :
about diamond bow

db ( 15 fana ) + 8030coa +cat eye + 20ias glove = 7bp
gm bow ( 15 fana ) + 8030coa + cat eye = 8bp
wich is the best

considering ull loose the 25slower on 7bp setup

if u zvz, ull need the max ias, but u wont it hit unless you have 20ias glove but if u have them, you wont slow him
so if u hit the other zone with the gmb setup, he will come at the same bp as you ( 8bp ) becuz of the 25% and ull do more dmg, since ur using gm bow
BUT maybe you wont have the time to hit him, i mean.. if his ias>your, you wont have the time to shoot and slow him due of fhr

about zvc = u dont need the max bp
about zv melee = u will need the max ias but u also need the 25%
so wich is the best vs who
im rly confuse lol cry3.gif


GMB does the highest possible damage, with Diamond you would need to loose the 25% slow to get the extra 20% ias which gives you 7 frames on that bow but even with 7 frames on Diamond and 8 frame GMB...the GMB still does more dmg. In my personal experience the hardest characters are the non caster, barbs, smiters etc so you need the slow. But feel free to try a 7 frame diamond bow zon and report how it holds up

have followed sparts guide and i can tell you that my zon does very well against zvz usually me winning in the outcome and vs other chars you dont have to use coa if you need the boosted 30frw and ias from a 120/45 30frw circ. Just switch off gears from the different opponents you fight smile.gif Overall i love this zon and feel more confident going into pk games not worrying that i will be killed in 1 hit smile.gif

No Storm / Titans?

You're food for any Smite/BvC/Bowie.

smite cant be blocked and you have 30% dr with the bow out.

BvC cant bloack as they dont have a shield out so its best to keep your bow out and finish them quickly rather than wasting time switching to a titans and ss.

Most bowzons wont be necessary but if necessary just replace the spirit monarch with a ss and leave the CTA on.

Any zon period is food for smite, skill is the only way to get around a smiter with any bowzon. Titan wont save u.
BvC are incredibly easy, expecially ones with no shield. Shield barbs are just as easy, just take longer to kill. Only 3 barbs on east have stomped me more than i have them, Whirl, Stone, Punch.
Bowa, Cta + SS = max dr, near max block... same goes for smiters and barbs. Bow vs bow comes down to luck/skill anyways, titan wont save u in that either. Only reason titan is the best weapon for a bowzon in most cases is either a.) ur a +1 fury hybrid or b.) u have no other option for a weapon on switch.
