Anyone that has tried windforce knows if it knocks monsters back from spiketraps when it deals dmg, the spiketrap that is.

Yes it does.

The thing is, with the patch approaching, no one is going to drop a ton of gold on a ring that will lose like 90% of it's value after the patch. That ring is great *right now*. But when 11%as/6% crit/50% crit damage rings exist, it's gonna be a lot harder to justify the purchase.

dh should be using soj and the 1.05 ring I think.. maybe post 1.05 rare rings will be better than an soj

Well there goes my dream of a windforce. Kinda dumb that the spiketrap dmg knocks them back from the trap;/

lol why? Isn't knockback good? I'm using Windforce with spike trap myself and never had any problem.

Only problem is DA knockback after initial pierce, so it knockbacks towards me!

The knockback on spike trap could also be more useful in 1.05 since the same trap can explode 3x if you spec that way.

not Natalya ring? I'd definitely say Natalya ring over SoJ, either legacy or new.

since the new hellfire ring can roll full lvl63 stats, your best bet is obviously a hellfire ring plus a nat ring for the set bonus.

I'm pretty sure it got changed in the last PTR patch.

IMO the only reason not to use the hellfire ring (unless the proc gets super nerfed) is if you can't prevent yourself from being 1 shotted by reflect mobs.

Given that you have the gold to buy a new set, would you: (a budget of 200m)

A. Get Natalya's [Legacy]
B. Get Natalya's [New]

Please state why. Im torn between these two. If I choose B, I will have to wait for it a week or two weeks after patch for prices of legendaries to go down. Thanks!

depends on the rest of your gear. legacy nats without dps or survivability isn't that useful. however, if you are good enough with the rest of your gear then it will enable you to things faster and more comfortably.

For those of you guys using multishot, what skills are you going to be switching to with your experience with 1.05 PTR.

any advice on what I should upgrade next? I know my left ring/amulet are pretty weak, but I want to see what happens post-patch with jewelery. I totally do not care about HP or AR, legacy nats- although gimping my potential dps- means I only die if I make a mistake. any advice on build/gear would be appreciated :D
currently at about 81kdps unbuffed or about 115k with steady aim and archery

what makes a good bow? or should DH always eventually aim for a 2hand Xbow? I don't have much ias on my gear, I could get some I guess, but with my current attack speed 2hand Xbow feels really boring for me to use. I was looking at getting a socketed windforce, but looking at a damage calculator I need like the best roll for min/max damage to get a decent dps boost out of it.

You should upgrade your gloves. Gloves can roll up to 300 dex, and yours have zero. Instead of ones with perfect crit/crit dmg rolls, get some with almost perfect rolls and 170+ dex.
