which is the best mirror bow?

Hello guys. I am planning to buy a mirror bow but i got confused which one to buy coz there are two best bows available for mirror service now in the standard league.

I just randomly chose some shops to link here.

my build is pure ev, hp and crit focused. which bow is better for me? Now my dps is 51k with 1.74 ats, what worries me is the ats of the mirror harbinger bow is only 1.36 and i like faster ats but i have asked some pros, they said mirror harbinger bow is way better than thicket bow. But I think if you are able to shoot faster, tat's mean u can crit more too??

Looking for some useful advice. Thanks.

I got the bow now finally so i think should come back to wrap up this thread. My final choice is gale fletch thicket bow and I have tried a 9.3 crit harbinger bow and I cant stand the slow shooting speed so it is actually up to ur play style. I would rather sacrifice some dps for faster ats because the fast shooting arrow sound is one of the main reasons why I choose to play ranger.



it is awesome to me. \^.^/ 104k dps now with amazing attack speed 0.16 and for aoe is 46k dps. Highly recommended for rangers who like fast sniping. Be a deadly sniper! The crit chance though is lower than harbinger, but it also means u can worry less about reflect and I really like fast shooting bow. With gear stacking ats and frenzy, the attack speed can go even higher. That's all for my thread, thanks to those who gave useful opinions and for those haters, u can go cry now. LOL.

Below are the screentshots: fully charged and only self-buffed with only one mirror gear which is the bow. If you are in a party, then the dps can be much higher.

Good luck guys! Bye.

and ya my crit chance now is 44%

Use Windripper and go elemental crit - damage is insane. I dont even understand why people mirror 6L weapons - you are locking your socket colors and will never be able to change them. Not good value for your money especially when new skills and gem combos are constantly introduced into the game.

With as much as Mirrors go for (150-175), you can craft a bow pretty close to a mirrored one and retain permanent control of sockets.

However, I tend to agree with Cernyneian - the ceiling of DPS you can get out of a Windripper is so high, it's hard to justify the expense (buying or crafting) of a Mirrored level bow.

Oh ok, thanks guys. Then I think I need to consider thoroughly again whether to buy a mirror bow or a windripper. thanks!

but ya my skill points are focusing on physical damage though I have added fire as a support gem, then is windripper suitable for me? coz I check it has elemental damage.

No - you'd need to respec for Windripper.

u r right man, windripper only for elemental crit and i have bought one. -.-' but nvrmind, it is a good bow, perhaps can keep for another char or wait till new skill tree comes out. >.<

So you can afford a Windripper, a Mirror - but a few EX for a respec you have issues with...
