Trouble is, if it's a stream of arrows, one amp proc means about 2-3 arrows with amp damage, which means 1-2 crit and get quadruple damage. Imo that burst dps is totally worth it.
Good duelists don't get hit by 3 arrows in a row
They teleport away when they see an amp proc
Upon this, 33% proc means that it is reliable (1/3 arrows will make the proc happen, when you want it to)
5/100 arrow on Atmas ISN'T GOING TO WORK 95/100 hits
What are you not understanding about this?
Not to mention how important 30 FRW is, bugged or not
FRW is what what allows an Amazon to survive, go figure

sry to say your totally clueless first off cats is a BIG NN since it's bugged frw which means it just ruins your frw sync (same thing goes for 30frw on circlet/diadem and seing as I use 3/100life I get a nice life boost from that while maintaining high damage+ias - but as mentioned earlier here in the thread that's a topic for another discussion) so your left with 2 choices hl or atmas or well in theory a rare amu but imo nn u wanna be able to do switch to hl in certain situations like when using eth tits or stacking lr etc.
My ama already have like 135+ frw on bow slot from 5frw 3max 20ar sc's + 5frw 5@ sc's + wt's/bitters/upg infernos and some even use as much as 175-200 frw which in my opinion is totally pointless but that's a matter of taste/playing style - I like to have overall nice life and decent damage and tank a lot with eth rare matris since bolt adds nice light damage + kb and many people tend to only use dr vs a bower/hybrid/tribrid
in my experience amp actually does proc quite often and especially vs. hdins with oak, necs with oak+golem and druids that have the entire zoo - for instance by using straffe which quite often will instantaneously trigger amp but it does also trigger very well with fury/bolt/ga/multi and as I said before the 20% ar helps a lot vs mb users when using multi but also fury/bolt (ar is hidden attribute - doesn't show on screen). As a huge bonus with foi is the 7%ll vs the above mentioned chars.
and ofc I statted my passives to match atmas in bow and javelin mode so that's not a problem either and also without hl I don't have the issue with crit+ds battling for proc
I have both switches faith+hl and foi+atmas and I change them up once in a while but haven't really noticed a huge difference tbh
and lacerator switch is only really viable for pure bowers and imo eth tits or rare javs with mb is by far the better choice over lacerator amp proc switching
Sorry to say but you're clueless as to how actual GM matches run when you're playing a Bowazon
(A) Amplify Damage is against the rules to begin with
(B) It isn't all about desynch, if it were, an NK'd naked Amazon, wearing nothing but SCs out of it's inventory, running to get it's body, would never get hit, now would it? -->>>
FRW is the most important thing that a Bowazon can stack, bugged or not, figure that out now(C) Against good duelists, having 135% FRW isn't going to cut it, you won't be fast enough to kite a good Charger/Smiter, you won't be fast enough walk out of good Barb/Ghost WWs and you sure as hell won't be fast enough to WSG back up out of a good Trapper's MBing ~ Best of luck and cheers
(D) Against good duelists, when they see amp proc (which will only happen 5/100 actual hits ~ which maybe will happen 1/3 rounds against someone) they'll just teleport away for 6 seconds and come back ~ Not worth the ditch in life/frw ~ which mind you, always works, in every round, from the start to end
(E) Using Strafe, will get you killed against good duelists ~ This is the triumphant moment when any good Necro/Hammerdin/Druid/Barb/Ghost/Trapper/Kicker/Blizzer/Other Amazons, will realize that you're pinned in a 2 1/2 second frame animation and you'll be dead
(F) Hello Treachery! What it procs
Fade?
But you go ahead and finish that build entirely centered around Atma's
