Hi folks,
Posted a while back *whining* about my under-powered bowazon's lousy
performance in Hell. Had used a build with maxed Magic Arrow as the
sole attack ... *Big Mistake* ... sigh. But we live and learn, heh.
My Frost Zealot just recently *persuaded* Baal to donate a Windforce
(nice of him, eh?). Want to retire\delete this *beat* MA Bowazon,
recycle her gear (*good* stuff from last ladder season) and slap the WF
on another bowazon.
Was thinking of building a Strafezon, but am not impressed with only
75% damage while in Strafe Mode.
Basic Build Parameters (at level 80):
Skills:
Prereqs - 1
Strafe - Max
Decoy - Max
Valk - Max
Critical Srike - 10
Penetrate - 10
Dodge, Evade, Avoid - Everything else
Stats: (Assumes *NO* Str\Dex Charms)
Str: 134 (Enough to equip WF)
Dex: 146
Vita: 135
Am not thrilled with the high Str requirement of the WF, suppose I
could socket it with a Hel rune; but am loathe to do so simply because
this bow is already socketed with a Shael! Will equip a Harmony on
the switch for those PITA physical immunes. Obviously the stats above
will be enhanced by gear and various charms.
Bottom line: Is this build viable in Hell? Or would I be wasting my
time ... again?
Comments, criticsm, suggestions?
