General Discussion - Worth trying to 6S and 6L this? :) - Forum

The bow is good as is and there really isn't a need for 6L beyond your standard WED-LL/LGoH-Chain-G/LMP-LA (or in your case, your preferred primary+supports). But wouldn't the stats I get be the same as my current bow, apart from the attack speed? % Physical Damage stat brackets are 60-72 and 73+. I'd need an iLvl 73 Imperial Bow with pretty good stats to match my bow no? If it's lower than iLvl 73, the max it can roll is also 149% Phys Damage, which is the same as my current @_@ I don't believe higher level bows (within the same stat bracket) have a higher base damage? For example, iLvl 72 vs iLvl 64 Imperial Bows (both are in the same affix brackets). I may be wrong, but if a higher iLvl item can have a higher base value, I should've kept all my Imperial's that I chanced in the hope of a Lioneye's @_@ Yes, you would need to hit the next ilvl bracket but Attack Speed strongly improves your animation time and more specifically, drastically improves the delay between firing your rain of arrows and it landing. That alone makes it infinitely more valuable than your current bow, especially since RoA is your primary.	Posted by Lyralei#5969 on Feb 28, 2013, 11:33:23 PM Quote this Post

Leech only restores so much in so much time unfortunately. My Q Mana Leech is on my Frenzy. I don't think it's worth for me to craft or buy another bow in the same ilvl bracket right now ): Would probably cost a ton still.

I wouldn't waste 300 fusings on a bow unless it had 130-169% PE prefix 70-80% PE and bonus accuracy prefix 20-40 physical damage prefix plus good suffixes(attack speed/etc) Last edited by Fluttershypony#7753 on Feb 28, 2013, 11:54:36 PM	Posted by Fluttershypony#7753 on Feb 28, 2013, 11:54:27 PM Banned Quote this Post
