I have a legacy nat's helm that has 4.0 critical chance with 166 dex to trade for it. You can view the nat helm below. http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Tang-1275/hero/1208349 | ||

Even in HC i have noticed that skimping on some survivability in order to faceroll elites is worth it. Killing a pack very quickly is also a defensive ability of sorts  Im playing with a barb on occasion and i was thinking of SS, spiketrap and the arcane bola when playing with him? Anyone tried something similar? Because the bolas should work well with SS and ST while not being to annoying to hit when he tanks everything. Only issue is the damn wasps in act 2 though, fuckers never stand still. | ||

On a side note, I'll be headed up the Silver Spire on Inferno for the first time tonight, gotta get Diablo killed before they nerf my no-skill crutch of ToC :D ! | ||

I have a 15.5% crit chance right now, I honestly don't remember my non-SS dps. I'm guessing I would need to get up to something like 60k+ dps, 25-30% crit chance before even considering it? On a side note, I'll be headed up the Silver Spire on Inferno for the first time tonight, gotta get Diablo killed before they nerf my no-skill crutch of ToC :D ! DPS doesn't matter. You should consider dropping ss past the 30% mark...Keep increasing it whenever u can. ToC isn't that useful against diablo since your worst enemy is your own shadow anyway. Good luck on diablo lol | ||

Thanks, I'll keep that as a mental goal for the time being. After Diablo's dead it's time to start farming like crazy! | ||

I bought lacuni prowlers w/ like 130-140 dex and 18 mf for 20m today - ias more than makes up for lack of cc and the move speed is so fun lol. Ofc if you can afford or would prefer cc over mf then go for it, but I like mf :D. | ||

I cleared it with ease, even got speed achievement on butcher (not that it matters), and I have pretty bad gear. yup that's why people had such difficulties clearing act 2, act 1 is hey, look here's some coffee to wake up. Act 2 was grenade thrown into the bed while you were still asleep and forcibly tied down. Without the requisite gear, you could not progress. | ||

What do you consider "bad gear"? When D3 was first released, the definition would be very different to now - because of gear inflation, low-end gear is probably sufficient to beat Inferno. I estimate all you need is around 3 mil to clear Inferno - I'm pulling out fake numbers but I have a feeling my estimate is on the high end. | ||

This is because bows have a high damage spread (e.g. see 400 - 1300 vs 900 - 1400). Because their DPS is lower, it just makes them worser weapons. My point is that for the discussion of crossbows vs bows to be interesting, the bow DPS will need to be equal to the crossbow. Right now, it's a no contest. You're right, but it's a little more complicated than that because of the Archery passive. If we look at which weapon is best assuming equal weapon DPS (which obviously isn't the case, as you pointed out), it looks like this: ![[image loading]](http://i.stack.imgur.com/1chBX.png) This makes logical sense: at high crit chances but (relatively) low crit damage, the +50% crit damage from 2h xbow makes it best, at low crit chance but high crit damage 1h xbow is best, and in cases where the two stats are fairly well-balanced, the overall 15% damage bonus from bow wins out. If we normalize that graph based on how average DPS rolls go on each weapon type, though, crossbows begin to dominate: ![[image loading]](http://i.imgur.com/yRmSv.png) (sorry about the shitty formatting) This was done by taking the first graph and factoring in the average DPS of the top 5 10m gold weapons of each type, so it gives a slightly better sense of what's actually going on. Obviously, crossbows are the clear favorite for nearly any feasible gearset, but it's still worthwhile to take the others into consideration, especially if you have some sort of funky stats. It's also worth mentioning that 1h xbows can roll crazy amounts of crit damage which makes things weird but that's for people who are dropping hundreds and hundreds of millions on their gear so I don't know how relevant it is. | ||

I have a mediocre 1k DPS crossbow and a bunch of high level 50 gear. I just remember all the devs saying at launch how inferno was going to be so impossibly hard and its been a joke so far. | ||

In addition, dps rolls on weapons have been buffed significantly. | ||
