Speaking Mavina set-wearing frost - or hybrid-maiden?

Compared to a pure physical bowazon - I guess a Javazon will ALWAYS be superior in a strictly PvM setting?

Im talking 1-3 players in Hardcore.

*edit: also compared to a demon machine sorc - which is also on the table as my next try.

There some ideas


Anyway Sorc with Demon Machine is alot better

It’s mid for sure

people say it's good but it's bad

people say it’s bad but it’s garbage

if you dont mind how thirsty she is, and picking up arrows as you go, for lower player counts, shes bad ass.
with cold sunder, no need for hydrid. go full cold with -% to enemy cold res gear... like ice bow and faceted nightwings.

freezing arrow is more enjoyable than strafe imo. strafe stalls you kinda like zeal. its nice to have a single click/ single projectile and keep moving type of play.... and the aoe on freezing arrow does the rest.

i was using a faith a1 merc for highest ias bp, but once you get to higher player counts, so p5ish and up, you'll want an a2 infinity merc.

Shit tier for sure

The duality of man.

anyway ty for the answers! Imma think about it. Demon machine sorc is kinda hungry for skillers and a badass enchant gear. Mavina Bowazon is prolly worth 30fg soaking wet.

just note i didnt use any mav set pieces. i went full uniques and runewords. and if you like gambling, she can easily farm a ton of game gold using an ice bow.

you need to rephrase the question
its not 'how strong' - try with 'how weak'

if you want to play pvm you have the following choices:
hammerdong, pangolin, nova, lightning, blizzard, fb, mosaic, trap, java, fire druid
