I've seen some discussion regarding bowazon builds for p8 T5 heralds. Just wanted to share some footage of mine doing these. I didn't play too much, but tried to actually show the heralds that have phys immune/stone skin to show the damage. Also included some game play vs P8 lvl 96 TZ monsters. I didn't use as many rejuvs as but hopefully it is still as exciting. He caught me red handed asking about repairs for PTR, so I was really embarassed. I think was the one initially interested

and as always, wanted to get and feedback.

thanks. the build is pretty basic, but I don't think most people use exactly this.
it's a faith diamond bow and atmas setup. As you can see, eth reapers on might merc. Reapers is much better than pride in my experience, since pride's blind target is annoying AF and will take the amp off the Herald, and the slow from decrep with lethargy is very GG. 10% crushing blow/LL/+2 zon gloves, the rest is pretty standard razortail, ravenfrost, dual leech/lethargy ring. Gore riders> war travs for high hp monsters like heralds. mania bow on swap (if you feel like it) but only helps run faster if u straif. will reach faster breakpoint for guided and multishot though

Also good job on redeeming yourself on the whole repair thing.

Next time use OBS lol.

Having fun is not only about using the most optimal meta class.
If your fun is grinding mindlessly, then yeah sure this isn’t for you.
Reminder: this is a game.
Bowzon is one of the best moments you can have if you appreciate playing the game.

Edit/
Also, for someone who likes grinding forever…
A glasscanon bowzon is probably the one single char that feels like it’s improving from each little extra stats you can get.
Most other chars feel already pretty much min/maxed from cheap standard cookie cutter items.
The process of having a challenge from initial walkthrough until epiphany at p8 tz96
A super saiyan bowzon can melt p8 rambo style, sure not mosaic style, but with a good old machine gun piercing through demon flesh
