Your playing it wrong. I'm decimating lol.
And just found another latent sundrr

Thorns heralds not a problem mate....my damage is eleMENTAL

Well there is physical and magical dmg not elemental
The dmg you do its depending on the skill you do that its

If you use strafe is physical
Guided arrow is magic

That how its work

Element damage are just a multiplier to you magic and physical dmg

I can be more specific, my damage is primarily cold, not physical

Freezing arrows does enough physical damage to where a thorns herald can hurt.

Idk, maybe our definition of decimate is different. I'm not saying you're struggling or anything... But you're not killing t5 heralds in 2-3 hits like an echo lock. Decimate in my mind means S tier build like echolock, nova, javazon, mosaic, hdin.

What's your gear?

But your cold is magic dmg or physical dmg whats skill you using

Like sorc is magical dmg and after come the element of the magic dmg fire/ice/lightning
But she does magic dmg and after is just about the resist that why you need sunder


You must be physical but you may have leech life somewhere is gear that make you lose no life vs thorns

Lock are just to op 80k dmg is op

I do 22k fire ball and struggle killing T5 herald take me alot to kill him

Hammer are just pure magic dmg pass throught armor and resist this is the most easy and broken build they have made killing everything easly but its get boring playing that

Java is really gear depend cause if you dont have all the GG gear you will struggle too

Mosaic is just broken too

Ice bow
Enigma
Maras
Hellwardens with 9/9 frost
Gloves ..depends on my mood, either 3bow 2ias or trangs
Cold opalvein
Horozon boots
Arachs
Mana leech rez ring
-6 cold sunder
Infinity merc

Also, I am recommending this over physical bowazon. Op asked for bowa.
Warlocks are an overpowered moot point.

What about charms? Our builds are quite similar, but I get 68% fcr breakpoint instead of 48%. You could do the same with 2zon/18 fcr ammy. The extra frame is really nice.

With 18 fcr ammy that means I can use Ice + hellwardens + 3/20 gloves for 60 ias total for 10 ticks attack speed with ice GMB while keeping 68% fcr.

Ive noticed that cold damage small charms add more damage than bow lifers, so it would actually be better to use 3x cold damage + 20 life small charms (which are super rare I've noticed?) as opposed to 45 lifer bow grand charms that some suggest.. so it's more damage AND more life, but the issue I've come across is those are much rarer, and you sacrifice survival from missing resist charms etc.

Yes I still need to upgrade my Amulet slot to an fcr skill ammy with Mana leech as well would be perfect. For now when I want faster tele I swap in the Trang gloves or full on W swap to move around.

I'm not using gmb, I'm using matri bow its inherently a bit faster and ice bowa doesn't need the extra physical dmg from gmb.
Debating if I want to use bowskillers...at current using alot of utility charms for rez/fhr/Mana and frw

Are you sure cold dmg scs add cold dmg to the explosion?
