If there's any of you DH's out there struggling in soloing Inferno elite mobs, I got just the build for you! http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/demon-hunter#bRYdgh!TeX!acZbYY It's basically a build which provides very high mobility, that will keep you safe from most one shots on Inferno difficulty, by stunning, slowing and kiting down the mobs. The only downside I see with it is the damage loss, but it's not really a big deal IMO. I'm in the middle of act 2 with my DH, all solo. | ||

Steady Aim or Cull the Weak are probably better for that build than Sharpshooter. | ||

Do the two-handed bows have any built-in benefit over the one-handed? - because as far as I see (in auction house) generally one-handed appear to do better damage and they have a higher fire rate which has so many more benefits than just pure DPS. | ||

however a drawback for such a weapon would be the higher usage of hatred. the built in benefit of two handed bows is that they usually deal more damage | ||

What you saw must be a fluke. | ||

When I went with 2 quick 1-handers, my hatred skills were less effective but I was a lot more mobile, and I could use the +6 hatred generators to get the hatred back quickly. Overall though, the benefits of a quiver are too godlike, and you waste a lot of dps with too much speed, so I like the middle ground. | ||

I have 41k damage. And this build is a terror against everything. Great AOE, Great against Elites, and wrecks all the Act 1 Bosses. We are about to move onto Belial and I'll see how this goes. PS: This build is also used by another DH with 95k Damage | ||

I use them mostly as a hatred spam. As with tinkerer, the hatred generation off a 1h crossbow is ridiculously fast. Then I just rapid fire until I need to use nades again ><. They do great damage in groups and honestly, that's what 99% of Diablo is. There are a lot of people who shit on grenades, and I can probably relate to that if they solo... but if you're in a group or even with 1 other person. 'Nades are pretty fucking good. edit: period. >.> | ||

I notice that devouring does more damage but cinder is more consistent as an overall attack. I'm just getting a second opinion and trying to get more knowledge about these two attacks. | ||

Which one is more consistent as an overall attack through the game. I notice that devouring does more damage but cinder is more consistent as an overall attack. I'm just getting a second opinion and trying to get more knowledge about these two attacks. The threatening mobs will always require a good number of hits to take down, so with a larger number of shots, devouring should almost always yield higher dps. I've been using it since I got it and reliability hasn't been a problem. Unrelated question for ppl: What AoE skill do you guys prefer? So far I've been using multishot with fire at will. It's been working great for me, but wondering if there are other good options. | ||

http://us.battle.net/d3/en/calculator/demon-hunter#aZXVQj!Xef!YZZYbY + Show Spoiler + Steady Aim for hand xbow, Archery for bow Started with a ~700 dps hand xbow + quiver and about 15k dps but found a really nice rare bow halfway through A2 with ~900dps and ~100dex and some other stuff and ended with about 20,5k DPS. After finding the bow, I switched to atk speed gloves/rings (2.18 attacks/sec) to get a lot of hatred for multis and to be more agile. Speed is king, with a bow and no extra atk speed, you are just not agile enough to dodge stuff while still doing damage. The key to the build is managing your hatred/discipline and spam smokescreen to keep you invincible. Almost everything in A2 will oneshot you (had about 25-30k life), so when you fail, you die. But if you like ressource managemnt, this build is for you. | ||
