Hey Bro i got another Question that we can add to the stack :P

What is the benefit of using Blast Rain as Single Target? atleast while leveling it feels underwhelming and Burning Arrow is outclassing it hard (killed Kole 2 times with both skills and Burning Arrow was 18 Seconds faster D: ).

For late game it has some pretty amazing dps! What level are you at?

Thx for the guide. With a DP bow build in Prophecy I absolutely agree on the Prism as a good choice, its currently my strongest build and seems almost effortless to play even with the nerf to conflux wich i can hardly tell a difference and seems silly in its mechanics.

At any rate I plan on going Storm Cloud up to doomfletch and then grab a fated upgrade prophecy or just buy the prism,,also Silverbough and Deaths opus are both also very strong and Silverbough is very good for both leveling or a option as a Caustic arrow bow.

Prism is BiS for a elemental bow imo,,all these great leveling uniques make the bow builds alot of fun.

Blast rain helps alot by knocking back incoming mobs and is easier to hit with while moving and dodging are a couple reasons I like it.

Got few questions about your build, why did you choose Vaal Pact? Do this build gain really that much from using it? Also what make Doomfletch's Prism Royal Bow good for this build? Wouldn't Reach of Council be better?

Also since in new league it is pretty hard for new players to buy Doomfletch's Prism what would you recommend? Rare high phys bow as it was in this build before? or normal Doomfletch Bow?

/edit

aw, 1 more question :D is this build a theory-craft ? Hatred + Herald of Ash aura are almost useless without large pool of flat phys dmg, why use them with Doomfletch Prism?

You can buy the doomfletch cheap and either hope for rng to proc the upgrade prophecy for it (Ancient Doom) or buy it Kill Vaal in act 1 temple to upgrade your doomfletch to the Prism version.

Also DP scales from flat added phys so hatred, herald of ash are in line with how the bow scales :)

Why Drillneck with no pierce in the build ? i dont see any reason to use it, could someone please explain it to me

Primarily because of the amount of flat physical damage it adds (for Doomfletch)! =)

I'll take Deadeye ascendancy and Ricochet, should I still use chain gem?

I think about dropping Hatred and use all the three Heralds instead. It might have a little less damage but you can use the herald of thunder to apply your curse. I also like the shattering part of herald of ice :)

Btw. again a very nice build by you Bro. This must be like the 10th guide of you I follow.

Sure, you will just get an extra chain, which is pretty powerful!

Kinda struggling making an up to date build for Ice shot, would this work with some twists

This build tree but Pathfinder ascendancy
Harbinger rather then fletch
Herald of ice with curse application Assasins mark
Frenzy for frenzy generation and frenzy charges.

Thoughts on this idea downsides of it?
