I wanna get back to dueling with the classic bowazon.

I for sure want to wield Windforce.

To be optimal, what do I need?

120/45
160/60
Shael in WF or 40/15 in WF?

I'm confused as to how to calculate attack speed.

From what I understand, I need 147 ias to hit 8 attacks per tick = 3.12 attacks per second.
45 ias from 120/45
60 ias from 160/60
15 ias from 40/15 in WF
20 ias from gloves
20 ias from highlords or cats eye
= 160 ias

Right?

I hear lots about swordback. Does its open wound work if I shoot with GA and switch to swordback?

you dueling with a old school wf zon? cool B) idk about the sword back thing. seems to me that you would end up messing around with weapon swap when you should be shooting or running away.

I plan on buying an 08 wf and putting a 27ed/8dex/7min/-15

Wf 20ias
Gloves 20

Armor 60

120 total there + my 80/30 rare circlet=150 :)

I'm sporting a 120/45 so I have 160ias in total; going over by 13ias. If I had a GG rare circlet like you, I would probably put a shael in my WF as well :)

Yeah with swordbackhold shield shoot some ga then switch to shield side if the ga hit you have 50% chance to proc open wounds and you can use Eth up Titan and fire some lightning bolt that one always hit compare to fury but you won’t have dr without ss
