hi all!

I was just bored, so after some years, i made a char in single player :D i downloaded the file for ladder rws, so i could make a very nice harmony in night act 3 :) i played bower a lot of time in bnet, but with gz eq.. nothing matters, any build is ok.. atm i am in hell act1, but i got some questions.. because maybe a restat my ama
i am stricted to use multi shot, not strafe, that is not a question now. but:

- which skill is the best at bosses? i tried magic arrow (atm it is lvl 22), works well with peace armor. but i think it is not fast enough. guided arrow is better at bosses? (and then how many points needed for magic arrow against immunes? 1 or more? or harmony is already enough? :) ) what about strafe? with 4-5 points on it, that is better at bosses then magic arrow/guided arrow?

- my current harmony is 284 ed short siege bow. but i have found (dropped by nightmare dia) a magewrat 143 ed (+20-50 dmg, +3 guided arrow). is that unique bow worth to uprade? or any harmony in elite bow (current is exceptional, but easy to find next one..) is better than upped magewrath? however i havent found pul yet (and i dont know what will i find before the pul (lycander/goldstrike / buriza / nothing)), but this bow needs 6 space in stash :S (on switch i have edge for gambling). so what is your vote? keep or drop?

-what place is best to farm with an unfinished bower? pit in act 1?

thanks in advance!

Im not an expert bower so I cant answer everything, but I will try with what I do know.

Strafe is def best for bosses, though sometimes it can be annoying on Baal when he keepts summoning those tentacles.

I would stick with the Harmony as well. Has *some* ele damage to help with those immunes and vigor is also extremely helpful, especially if you are playing in hardcore. Also the "mana after kill" is is a must for bowas imo.

Pit act1 is a great place to far for any char, except maybe sorc iirc. It is also really deadly though so be careful.

Hope this helps somewhat.
