Need Help!!!

Anyway this is me: http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/sun-1894/hero/18938946

So i get lucky and found a perfect stat Inna's Radiance which banks me 145mn so now I have plenty to upgrade my DH. From all your expert knowledge, can you please help me and suggest which gear to upgrade for the best value of money?

Bankroll: 145mn

These are my priorities:
1) Upgrade my dps without sacrificing any survivability (and i need more AR still)
2) Able to farm mp 7-8 on uber boss
3) Value preservation: I don't want to see my gears depreciate half in like a month....


and...i still love some atk spd on my build as bola shots with stun is amazing!

I am thinking to go for a 2-socket Manticore but maybe spending on other parts would be better....Please suggest and any comments are appreciated!

Thanks!


If you want to have a better survivability I would switch sharpshooter to perfectionist. It gives you a nice boost in your def skills. But it seems to me that you are too much relying on sharpshooter with your low crit chance (26,5%?! if i calculated right). So I recommend buying 2pc natalya ( chest + boots) with the 7% cc set bonus.
Boots usually have high all res and 12 % movement speed which adds to your survivability. If you want to spend more money get them with vitality, high armor, max disciplin and a high dex value. You might lose some dex but the 7% cc should compensate for that.

edit: and a new weapon is always a good way to increase your dmg 2 socket manticores are nice but if you buy them with a low base dmg it maybe won't increase your dmg a lot. so better check that before buying

If Blizzards 10% per MP is true then there's a 0.5^7 = 0.78125% chance that would happen. Congrats on your awful luck.

I've been having the easiest time with act 2 keys. Oasis always has 5-6 elite packs without needing to go in the dungeons, so I can do an entire run in one area. I think my worst act 2 streak was 1/6 keys.

not to sound insulting, since you probably know this, but you are getting 5 stack of NV before killing the key warden right? It's just that you're getting extremely unlucky otherwise. 1 in 6000 chance of missing 7 times in mp5, twice in mp6 and 4 times in mp3. Damn, legendaries are more common than this now.

Of course I get 5 stacks.

I dont really understand how this is possible. Maybe the items that were dropped are hiding the key? But I highlighted the items and there was no brown text/light shooting up. weird. I'm really beginning to think either somehow the drop was invisible or this guy is bugged.

This one time he didnt die, he was stuck at 1 hp constantly, until my templar charged him.

smoos: Many thanks for the tips! I am also thinking to get a Nat Chest and Boot for the Crit Chance. Do you think i should swap the atk speed on the rings for crit chance as well?

BY the way i am looking to spend 150mn to upgrade my DH, please help

Why is everyone so into manticores? Is it because of the crit damage, so you get a higher burst? In the damage calculator my random 1373 dps 600k xbow does more damage than 10-15m manticores with gem. I guess sustained damage isn't as important?

Edit: Another random question while I'm at it! I see Ball Lightning getting suggested and I'm currently using it to great effect. Why am I using this and not nether tentacles? Does all mobs have significant higher resist against regular damage than against lightning? The % damage and aoe are otherwise the same.


Manticore can roll with 2 sockets which makes it the ultimate best in slot for a DH. As for the 1 socket version, it turns out that a manticore with decent stats is actually less rare than a rare xbow with the same stats. Built-in %damage, aspd, crit damage and socket make it a cheaper weapon than a rare one despite the low drop rates for legendaries. It also always rolls a primary stat, mind you (to think of it, it has more than 6 affixes in total, maybe that's why it can roll a second socket).

As for the sustained vs burst, when your CC is over 50% crits become common enough to be considered sustained damage.

Ball lightning has much more AoE than tentacles. It also can damage monsters around corners and even monsters behind you as you fire. Damage is the same but it's utility is godlike.

hi fellow dhs

i need some help. -> http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Tankor-2271/hero/231385 this is me.
as you can see right now im pretty glasscannony which is no problem when farming acts/keys(i melt through mp4/5) but trying to solo uber siegebreaker really kills me due to the reflects so is there any way to enhance my survivability while not sacrificing any dps that doesnt involve a 500m vile ward? i got around 100m to spare or should i just find a group that can carry me through the ubers so i can get my ring

I don't know, a friend of mine was really excited to find a manticore he wanted to give me. Now, the rolls were not that good, only 80 cd and one socket, 900 dps, still, my lame 1150 dps one socket 150 dex bow outdamages it by 5k. I can see, with really good rolls, that a manticore can get ahead, but, my bow did cost 1.2m. I cannot see how this thing can become best in slot with a max dmage range of 1000dps... Also found a hellrack myself, that was even more sad.

I am really no expert on equipment, but the easiest way to improve your survivability wpould be to upgrade your shoulders with some resistance, wouldn't it? I can see why you don't want to change the rest of your equipment, but the shoulds could be 150 dex 100 vit 70 ar + physical resists. That should helb against reflect damage. Also, as your damage is so high, maybe lifeleach on your crossbow? Don't think loh is that effective as you can't stack enough.

Yeah, if you look carefully at manticore, it doesn't come with a % damage roll, just a high poison damage roll and attack speed. The two best random rolls are therefore extra socket and 50% damage.

You need more vit as well as res all/phys res. I got Inna's belt for 11 mil yesterday with 86 vit on NA server, not sure if they're similar on EU. Also lacuni's aren't very good defensively, at the moment it gives you 1% move speed and 9% attack speed. Some rare bracers with dex, vit, res all and some crit chance would probably be better. Your gear overall seems to be over emphasising crit chance, crit damage and attack speed at the cost of dex. 1.9k is not much considering 260 of it comes from dual set bonuses. For example your gloves have nice crit chance and crit damage, but the dex is not very high considering dex goes up to 300 in gloves...

All that said, the boss fights are unforgiving for glass cannons as you're probably aware, and doing ubers as a group is always better since the fight doesn't reset when you happen to die, and more efficient since you share machines.

Yeah, i can kind of see why this manticore is best in slot. The whole equipment of this guy is kind of good. Well, maybe if i farm for another week...

You have over 40% crit chance! switching out sharpshooter will give you a very good new passive slot. Sharpshooter with over 40% critchance is just wasting a slot and faking your dps chart. I would suggest tactical advantage or perfectionist when you have more vit/res/armor.

You would do good getting other bracers with dex vit res all and crit chance and vile ward for shoulders is not a bad idea (its not 500mil with the stats you already have and the more res/armor).
You really need to lose a little dps for more vit and res all or spend that 100mil for the survivabillity.

I suggest you start there.

I only have about 120k dps (without ss) but i do have 45k life 500+ all res and 4k armor. Can farm mp4/5 with ease too.
I am looking for a better bow which will boost my dps a lot (only 1250dps socket).
