So ive heard.....

From talk amongst my friends, and previous players i used to play with ive been told Bowzons are no good....

I was just doing some Cow MF , and i found myself a windforce... So i thought!@ lets make a bowazon...!

I was a fan of Multi/Guided arrow, previous to the synergies being put in, i dont know how they build now....

Ive seen the rest of these posts and they dont really give me any sorta idea about what i should do.. or how i should do it..

I want to build a Zon, Bow pref, but if hybrids are still working out, i could also do that because i liked playing a javazon (LF) back when... (1.09)

I want the best oppinion from you guys regarding how to build the best bowzon now, and i will do it.

Thanks!

WOOT Wf hehe

wf is a piece of shit bow anyway get a faith then you can make a bow zon..
and just max guided arrow multi and evade dogde and others like that and dump like 3/4 of your stats in dex then the rest into life

mr. invisible summed it up pretty much, except that you may use a wf but you must remember that it is 2nd to faith. faith is the best option, but if you seem to be poor, but you desperately want to make a zon, go for it. theres plenty guides in the char build section and d2jsp.org has a lot in its forums as well

again, im new back to d2.. is faith a bow, or a runeword?

thats beautiful lol are those more expensive then BOTD?

Shael'd WF is much better in duels if you're using guided arrow. It's got more damage.

Word, WF is still one of the best bows in the game and compares to Faith very well. Overall, Faith is probably better for a solo physical damage zon, while WF is much, much better if you have friendly auras in team duels, or if you want to go for poison damage.

it depends on your realm but on nonladder east yes faith is more expensive. but botd prices range alot. First of all etheral will make the price go up definately. Then the enhanced damage. then the weapon type i think zerker being the most expensive. Unless you have a near perfect ebotdz i dont thik you could get a (gm) faith for one.

I prefer fatih>wf yes wf gives you more damage but i dont think you can hit the last bp with wf. You need 95% ias with a lvl 13+ fanat /w a faith. lets see

cats eye- 20%
nos coil- 10%
gloves- 20%
helm- 45%

exactly 95% ias. Im not really sure of the wf ias bps but i know u need 5x ias WHEN YOUR USING A LVL 15 FANAT faith merc. scince you dont get fanat itll be more than 95% ias to get the last bp. So now you have to use a slow bow or a 16060. I think faith+fort would be more damage than 16060+wf. they are probably around the same but imo faith>wf any day. and dont say you can use a faith merc its bm for pvp and id much rather use a pride a2 might merc w/ pride and me using faith.
