Before I link these bows, which one is better in the long run?

They are about equal of quality or lack there of. You could buy a better bow for less than 10C.

A Harbringer or Lionseye?

It doesn't quite work like that.
Go to poe.trade.

Do a search on bows with 300+ Pdps and a maximum price of whatever you want to spend.
Look for the best match.
You should not limit yourself to a Harbinger just yet. There are plenty of good bows with another itembase out there :)

What kind of stats am I looking for on the bow besides looking for 300+Pdps?

Crit chance (including base crit damage from bow type) and phys damage (not just dps how hard you hit. 100-300 x 1,5 attack per second > 100-200 x 2 second per second). Try to get something like 1,25-1,5 attacks per second.

I usually count elemental dps as 33% of physical dps (you can have quite a lot of WED on gear).

Besides that crit multiplier, accuracy is also nice :)

Hello,

I'm having problems with leveling on HC with this build.
The major problem is the lack of information on the guide about leveling.
The information I would find helpful would be like:

On the section:
Leveling Skilltree - 40 Points
Expected stats at 40 points...
- HP > 1000; ST-Dps > 800; AoE-Dps > 500.
- Level 35+; Starting Act 4 Normal;

Leveling Skilltree - 58 Points
Expected stats at 58 points...
- HP > 1200; ST-Dps > 1000; AoE-Dps > 700.
- Level 40+; Starting Cruel;

Leveling Skilltree - 77 Points
same as above...
etc...

Also, the stats on gear to prioritize on leveling.
Like:
Until level 10, whatever u find.
Until level 30 still on normal diff,
- hp on rings/amult, cap res 75%,
- good gears: storm-cloud, death's harp, etc...
- - Try to get at least 4L on bow, and 4L on armour...
- - Recommend LA/TS and BR
Until level 40 maybe starting cruel, etc...
After level 55 ending-cruel / starting-merc, follow these rules:
- Rings: ...
- Amulet: ...
- Quiver: ...

Something like that...

I hope you find it helpful to improve your guide. I'm following it right now.
Thanks.

Another quick question, when I sort the items I sort by pDPS and not Phys. right?

By phys I assume you are referring to a damage range. For instance



Phys = 211-488
and pDPS = physical dps so


this bow has a pDPS of 301
and an extra 100 eDPS (total 401 DPS).

You should try and sort for both. See which bow gives you the best 'bang for the buck'.

Personally I prefer hard hitting bows since they are way more mana efficient and if you have enough attack speed they are also flat out better.

Hi again,

I'm at level 46 right now on HC, didnt quite went trough malachai on normal (died 2 times on the first tries), had to pay for a little help... and now I'm on Cruel.

I invested a little in some gears, and my question is, What should I improve and buy in order to get to Merciless... or even better, in order to solo Malachai on Cruel.

My gear:


Gear to improve? Skill links to change?

I'm follow the regular skill tree and didn't completed the 58 points tree yet.


Thank you very much.
