i personally prefer the twin chakrams, although the spiral chakram is also nice. against bosses, hungering arrow seems to be the best bet. (impale is cool, but drains hatred so quickly that it wont contribute a lot against, e.g, act bosses). what do you use now? | ||

There is a streamer on twitch that has 100k+ dps w/o sharpshooter, 45k hp, and like 5-6k armor / 5-600 all resists or something ridiculous. Even with all that, he cant exactly tank elites, but he can take a few hits here and there. http://www.twitch.tv/nugiyen (his gear: http://i.imgur.com/Dj98D.jpg) | ||

Being able to survive just enough hits to not die before you dps stuff down is the best you can hope for imo. | ||

I'm going to switch from 2h bow IAS build ( was 3.0 APS ) to dual 1hand xbows ( with crit dmg sockets and high dexetry one ) duo to IAS nerf in 1.03 patch. How do you guys think bout it ? | ||

How do you guys think bout it ? General consensus seems to be that it's better if you're at an extremely high level of gear, but that in the meantime 2h with crit chance/damage stacking is still viable. Honestly IAS nerf didn't hit us as hard as nether tentacles nerf. In inferno you're generally kiting around anyways, I know that IAS helps a bit but it's not too big of a deal. | ||

The price hike in hand crossbows today makes me believe people are following the new flavor without understanding why it is good. I don't think that it is worthwhile to use hand crossbows unless you are extremely geared though, especially after the premium associated with them after the build spread like wildfire. If you don't have them already, I really doubt it is worthwhile to pick them up now. | ||

Being able to survive just enough hits to not die before you dps stuff down is the best you can hope for imo. The point of getting defensive gear on DH generally is to get past the point of 1 shotting and give yourself some leeway. Sure, some people might say l2dodge, but imo any build that doesn't take into account the very obvious factor of human error is weak (and the inefficiency shows when you're regularly farming a map rather than just trying to progress past it). With the newly increased repair costs and nerfed inferno, it makes even more sense now. When the difference between tanking 1 hit means your character's life, it actually makes it MUCH more worth the investment than for a tank, imo. | ||

And also, I swear to god i puked inside when I saw his gear. Fuck. They really should change the DH to have a viable tanky build -_- | ||

I'm not saying go for all glass cannon either - I have 43k hp myself and take a spear throw hit with very low resists, but I still prioritize dps (100k atm w/o ss) | ||

He does azmo runs in ~15 mins, which is about same as me and I have 2x his dps. This build should still be viable now. (he didnt have sick gear/dps - only 56k dps with sharpshooter) http://www.inven.co.kr/board/powerbbs.php?come_idx=2731&l=930 - for more indepth info Holy shiet... This is the best thing i ever saw. | ||

I don't see it being viable running both unless you have really good + disc gear AND run Night Stalker with a good crit % AND have the Natalya 4 set bonus. | ||
