[1.1] Davos Seaworth's Elemental Split Arrow Build - Solo every map with ease!
|
I've gone a bit more gung ho with this build.
 Passives Gear
Spoiler
First off, Split Arrow:  For a single-target skill, I instead opted for a lvl1 Barrage. It is supported by Mana Leech, Added Lightning, Faster Attacks and WED. I noticed that my mana pool is extensive enough to support the minimal mana cost of a level 1 barrage, and it tops right off if even a single arrow hits. When I need to leech life with this, I use the Promise flask. The damage listed is for one arrow, not all four.  And lastly, my stats. I make up for the lack of the Grace aura with the Jade and Granite flasks.

why not drop resolute technique? so that has the chance to crit (shock+burn+freeze), since the chance to hit is 85%+

I doubt the damage gained from the minimal crit chance will offset the damage lost from 15% miss chance. I also largely lose the ability to facetank with LGOH. Also, don't forget, if an arrow misses the first hit, it will also automatically lose the second and third hits it would have gotten from chain. That's a steep damage loss.

does the chance to hit become lower as we progress to higher level or stay the same?
|

|
better to take more WED or projectile damage nodes?
|

WED or Projectile nodes hardly matters since they are roughly equal. What you will find though is that if you have 100% Wed and 70% Projectile damage, a Projectile node will have a higher overall bonus. So try aiming at whichever you percentually have the least of.
The hit chance formula slowly declines as you increase in level, but is also affected by monster level. If you're hitting monsters above your level it will affect your accuracy adversely, while if you'd be trying to hit a monster below your level you'd have a much easier time.

This build is pretty much exacly the same as the elemental buzzsaw build in the scion sub forum.
What i mean by this is that most of the killing power comes from wrath and anger auras not the weapon's damage. So just like the buzzsaw for best efficiency investing in the fastest weapon you can find should yield the best results. A bonus if the weapon also has elemental damage as well. The gear would look very much alike too. Just replace spectal throw with split arrow and stack Life, resistances, armour/eva, wed/flat ele dmg and as much attack speed on gloves as possible. Using haste aura would probably add a lot of damage too. If it is possible. Good first charachter build. |
