Pure Elemental Bow Shadow
|
==Overview ==
This is a high dps min-max build designed for diabolically efficient farming. It in no way is intended for HC. If you like playing rogues & top dps classes where you sacrifice defense for more offense, this method is for you.
Passive Skills
90 Points taken. This would be considered a final build. This is identical to the build I used for months and months in CB. Updated & taken a few skills further for OB. Not gonna lie, it looks very strong.
Passive Skills while levelling
29 points taken.
59 points in. At this point we are close to linking the build in a circle. Once this happens we can refund 6 points.
Now only 60 points used.

Gameplay Tips
- Kill all the Bandits. Killemall. You will flog yourself at lvl 75 as penance to atone for your failure if you let one live.
- You don't have to use CI if you are a witch/shadow/templar. High ES & 65% recovery gets annoyingly expensive.
- Stack HP from gear & passives. Interestingly, that lil 12% HP node just south of the shadow start makes HP shadow/ranger an attractive option.
- Max your resistances (or 60%+) to overcome not investing in any defensive nodes.
- You don't have to invest in many defensive nodes.
- Have a specific ring for each resistance with 60%+ for heavy +% elemental dmg map mods.
- 2k hp 1500 es 10% dr 75/75/75 & an overwhelmingly destructive offensive barrage gets it done.
- 20% MAX (in this order) Module Error: No results found for item using search term "item_name = Weapon Elemental Damage", Culling Strike SupportSupport

- Farm lower lvl maps & content with Ice Shot & Chain & Module Error: No results found for item using search term "item_name = Faster Projectiles" & a Quiver with Projectile Speed %

- High rarity = more rares= chance for rares with mf = Alch Shards = Alchs.
- You are either levelling or you are farming. Never do both & expect people to feel sympathetic when you die.
- Much grief will be avoided by remembering this.
- People who complain about never getting uniques & say they have good mf are either grossly inefficient when clearing content & need to kill more mobs faster or are complaining too much instead of killing more mobs that drop uniques.
- Chain currently has a 100% hit rate.
- Anyone can strike it rich at any time.
- Don't use orbs with names one would use to describe an angel.
- Exalted Orbs are a rich player's plaything. Sell em for Gemcutters Prisms.
- For the love of pete use your GCP on supports like weapon elemental damage/culling strike/chain if they arent 20%
- Weapon elemental damage quality % is the single highest dps boost from a support for this spec.
- Ranged Attack Totems linked with ice shot & you cursing with elemental weakness makes for a kitable boss with reflect elemental damage.
- Find or make a 10%+ Rejuvenation Totem. Name it. This is your meatshield & best friend. This is your companion cube.
- You do not get your IIR/IIQ bonus when Poison Arrow's cloud kills an enemy.
- Ranged Attack Totem + Death's Harp = an extra arrow.
- Ranged Attack Totem + Death's Harp + GMP = 7 Arrows
