Hey,

I need Help to find a good early Armor for My Bow Amazone. Some People tells about Griswolds Armor with 3 Ias Juwels.
Have aou more Ideas?
What can i do for more mf on the Amazone? I got now only Wartraveler, Gheeds and some Charms.

Thanks

If physical i would go forti.

forty yes
if you can't get that, consider treachery, lionheart, wealth, trang ouls, black hades, white 4s armor

First what kind of Bowzon build are you running? Im assuming pure phys?

Since you said the word Early, for a bow the best Armour is a Treachery for 45%ias // level 15 venom on striking and 20% FHR, and FADE when struck (bows usually have a tough time with resists so this helps a lot)

Obviously FORT is better ..PROVIDED, you have the gear to supplement it and provided you have access to a LO rune, and by supplement it I mean be able to have enough attack speed to hit your 8 or 7 frame breakpoint

But since you used the word early, im using that as an indicator you will not have a LO, nor a Fortitude armour

The most important think about a Bow is IAS, a lot of people new to Zons dont really seem to grasp that

As for MF, its a rough life for a Bow, Id say run the Travs//Gheeds// and a few charms if you feel like sacraficing Damage for MF, people trip WAY TOO HARD about MF anyway..im currently running 0% MF on my zon and i find plenty of charms//jewls//etc during my runs

Not sure who told you that griswolds was a good idea but lets look at the stats:

Defense: 917-950 - useless, as a bow defense is pretty useless, you shoot from a distance, and dodge, evade, avoid help us not get hit
Required Level: 45
Required Strength: 102 - this alone is good enough reason to not use it, max strength you should be using is 95 for your war travs
+500 Defense - useless
+20 To Strength - useless, we need dex//vit
+2 To Defensive Aura Skills (Paladin Only) - useless
Socketed (3) - if you socketed with 3x 15%ias jewls youd pretty much end up with a Treachery with no other useful mods besides IAS

Lets look at Treachery:

5% Chance To Cast Level 15 Fade When Struck - Super useful, gives us 1% damage reduction per level and resists
25% Chance To Cast level 15 Venom On Striking - somewhat useful, minor/mediocre boost to kill speed
+2 To Assassin Skills
+45% Increased Attack Speed - super useful , helps us hit breakpoints and attack faster
+20% Faster Hit Recovery - somewhat useful, self explanatory
Cold Resist +30% - super useful, we need all the resists we can get as a bowzon
50% Extra Gold From Monsters - somewhat useful, we use gold to gamble
