Oh boy - thanks for that Marauders Helm, and of course, as luck would have it, after 2 rifts where all I got was blues dropping - dropped comment in game that I must be due a big one given that all I am getting is blues, and a rift or two later, the Marauder Gloves drop!

:D

It was my pleasure. Now if only the damn ring would drop for me again and it rolls correctly I will be very happy.

Ai ya!

This game!

Epic runs yesterday, marauders dropping like candy, mirror ball, cindercoat (kadala), but.... for the other people in the group!

Lol - there is hope though.

Eish, this game.

T3 manageable now :D - not fully efficient, but manageable

Zankanotachi had a looooooooooong lean run but got his cindercoat right at the end.

Oh, and I received the kind donation of a Moonlight Ward for my wiz.

As an aside, the Rift Bosses are really really stingy atm

Very profitable run with Agent_Smith and two of his friends last night.

Extremely profitable for his DH buddy who received gifts that boosted him to a whole new level

Danetta
Dml
Andy
Band of Hollow whispers

Agent_Smith passed two barb ammys my way and received some nice shoulders and a helm for his in progress monk.


With the Wiz along, we managed T3 at a reasonable clip given the rest of our somewhat low dps - great fun nonetheless.

Looking forward to a party with more DHs to see how that pans out.

Also, swapped to two handbows and went to 50% ChC and 500+ ChD

Squishier but hit harder and had to drop the 3 wolves for boar but takes the build in a new direction (fun, fun, fun)

Need a good cindercoat (don't we all!)

This game is like crack I tell ya!

Right, so a bit late in replying but damn it was a good evening! Yeah, my mate is stoked with all his upgrades. His dps has gone up by more than 30% and his toughness has almost doubled! Didn't get much game time over the rest of the weekend unfortunately but will renew hostilities this evening! :D

Grats on all your drops. See your DH is coming along nicely! :)
 
Talk about let-downs!

2 Weeks ago i found a decent cloak of garwulf, so 3 wolves at my side. Was doing roughly 1mil sheet DPS with a host of passives from items, pox faulds, fan of knives on hit, and another that fires a rocket back at attacker for 700% damage. All was good, hunting for the third piece of marauders. Then she dropped. A darn chest piece, which means no more cloak of garwulf.

So i have the 5 companions but the items themselves dropped me to 800k DPS. Still melting through stuff but lost a lot of DPS and set bonuses from Natalyas by not wearing the boots anymore. So now im still hunting for more items i guess.

Sheet DPS is only half the story, where the real damage lies is in +% elemental and +% elite damage

T1 has turned into a joke for me over the weekend on my wiz with the upgrades I got

Well that's a great sign then surely? :)

I can comfortably solo T1 with my Barb (although my dps is still too low to maraud my way through mobs). Getting there though.

Oh lol! Oops!!

/runs from wolves, boars and hungering arrows! :D

That WarCry buff is always welcome.

Interestingly, I did an Azmo test to see if another 19% fire damage would compensate for 15% sheet dps drop when swapping a Magefist for my current Cain's Gloves (Cains' has ChD and ChC + AS set bonus; Magefist has the Fire damage and ChD)
.

.
it didn't - with Cain gloves, Azmo dies about 15 seconds quicker.

Guess the Magefist will go to the Monk

Edit: Finally rolled the 3 socket on the Garwulf (dang, probably burnt through 15+ Lost Souls) so, when I get my final Marauder piece (hopefully not he chest), it's going to be very interesting.

Silly question, but does a stun count as a slow? AT, I see you're running Vengeance with a 'From the Shadows' rune (and Vault with stun rune too). I also see you have Cull the Weak as a passive. CtW will obviously work very nicely with your Hungering Arrow rune, but am just curious if it has the same effect with Vengeance and Vault?
 
Cull of the weak works well on Entangling shot and from the spider slowing enemies down. I tend to fire a few into a crowd then wack them with cluster arrow, usually get avg 8-9mill crits. Highest ive seen was 13mill
 
I run CtW with my Caltrops which works nicely. Only problem with that is it only really works when I'm kiting or if I'm feeling brave enough to run into a mob and drop a Caltrop or two. I might need to look at that tactic :whistle:

Which just goes to show that assumption is the MoaFU's! (my assumptions)

I assumed that stun activates CtW - it apparently doesn't - however, Frost Arrow do slow enemies, so when I spam the Imminent Doom Bolas and intersperse the Frost Arrows, I get the benefit of the +% Fire Damage (38% when I have the correct bracers on with the Andy) and the CtW

At least that's the theory - I hope

Hmm. gotten so used to AoE of Bolas

Decisions, decisions

PS: This is why 4 piece Marauder is going to be so interesting.
 
Please let me know what I can do to improve on this. It felt awfully weak (compared to my wiz) over the weekend. Best suggestion will win a prize of questionable usefulness.

You can increase DPS by 20% very easily with 2 one handed bows with an Emerald in it.

Eish - boet, you need to run with the Conclave so that you start accumulating some set items for their bonuses.

What plans do you have?

- You need to sink time into Act 1 bounties for THAT ring (Ring of Royal Grandeur)
- You need to craft some stuff that gives you set bonuses
- That manticore (imho) is too slow - for me a DH is all about Attack Speed

More input later.
