Yeah pub duels are just whatever usually.. you can do anything in there.

A good dueler who knows what they are doing will catch you running and probably one shot you. Ghost sins, barbs. Those are good matchups as a hybrid zon but with dex stacked and no jav shield, it's should be 0-100 haha

Hdin is easy as a zon yes you just need bow and no life


Yea I went up against one Ghost that wrecked everyone in the game, me included.

So do you just run no CTA or do you prebuff? Honestly, I always thought pre-buffing was kind of lame and space-consuming >.>

All hybrid zons have cube in the inventory for CTA. It's not lame, it's a standard set up.

And here's some video against sins.

that's intense and looks fun! sort of inspired me haha.

I know it's standard, but still think it's lame. But I will ultimately do the same to keep relevant.

I watched your vid on the 2.4 Ice bowazon and I think I'm going to mess around with one of those soon.

I have a Magus tiara with ed/ias but I was considering using NW Veil instead.
What I'm looking for isn't so much a p8 char. More of a p3-4 mf char that still utilizes Tele.

How would you build this char out?

You can get to 75% ias bp by putting 15ias jewel on nightveil. 15 nightveil, 20 ice, 20 glove, 20 highlord. That's the best spec for that.

Kimsulki84 - 2.5 Ladder GMB Faith Walkzon Spec - P8 Chaos Solo (7 Frame and 8 Frame Runs Joined)

Came back from vacation and got myself a 15/2/3 345ED GMB Faith so put together a quickie GMB Faith walkzon. I had some gears 45/30/120 Speed Tiara and full inventory of inertia charms that I gathered from before so just put them together quick.

Showing you the difference between the typical 7 frame Bowzon and 8 frame version with Atma and Razortail swapped instead of Highlord and Nos belt.

When you do the typical 7 frame GMB Faith bowzon, you invest some points into Pierce skill to get it as close to max pierce as possible to compensate the loss of pierce from Razortail. You can never get to 100% pierce just from skills so there's that.

You can do 8 frame GMB Faith bowzon if you drop 20IAS from ammy. Then you can swap in Atma ammy for AMP curse and put in Razortail for 100% pierce with 1 point on the pierce skill. Then you have a ton of skill points to play with and I usually dump it into Magic arrow for quicker physical immune kills and a few on Dodge/Avoid/Evade to make for more tankier.

And of course Naj staff on swap to reposition Eth Reapers merc more offensively.

Bowzon is love.

Kimsulki84 - 2.5 Ladder Sunder Frostmaiden Telebowa Spec - P1 Chaos

Testing out this Frostmaiden build with Ice Mat + Nightveil helm.

Mana leech doesn't work much at all since the physical damage is very low anyway. So I just dumped 200 points into Energy LMAO Call me noob but Zons don't need much life nor resistance anyway.

Small charms are whatever I had in the stash. Will be doing some testing with different stats and gearing for fun next week.

The idea is to run 8 frame on this spec. 75IAS to hit 8 frame on Mat bow without Faith aura. 15 from Nightveil, 20 Highlord, 20 Gloves, 20 Ice.

Kimsulki84 - 2.5 Ladder Sunder Frostmaiden Telebowa Spec - P8 Chaos Solo

First time running through P8 Chaos solo with this.

This spec will never do full clear well due to the fairly small AOE damage.

But it is pretty fun spec to do and the burst damage is definitely there.

Here's some videos of Sunder Frostmaiden. 75ias bp spec is actually pretty good.
