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

I will be on the lookout for those - what about my Sin Seekers - quite a good roll, I think.

Yeah not bad at all. I used to run a 1hander + sinseekers, till i picked up the second nice 1handed bow. The rest of your items are pretty decent. How much is your sheet DPS in-game? 1.1mill range im guessing?

First problem i see is the name of the Toon, on to the rest...

Agree - saw a worse one a couple of days ago "Kaktoffel" - :wtf: - dafuq names themselves that.

900k-ish. Attack speed does feel very slow, especially when running in a group. Running alone, I feel less judged :/

Craft a Hallowed Condemnation (if you have the plan of course) - mine has served me well for a long time

The quicker you fire, i.e. 1handed bows the more value you get from things like slow, and cull of the weak etc. i reckon. Wont go back to 2handers ever again.

I used to have a Natalya's Slayer (I think - one handed set bow), but the manticore was an upgrade on sheet DPS. Under the old regime, my level 60 manticore served me well.

Your ChC / ChD is also out of balance - you need to roll some ChD affixes onto some of your items - try to get to a ratio of about 1:10

 

[Heisenborg]

Im gonna drop the Marauders into the stash and go back to Garwulf. I lost about 25% CHC with those equiped

I explained elsewhere - its a trade off

2x1H = lots of little attacks with a big range (by range I mean the difference in the weapon base damage)
2H = few big attacks with a small range, ie more consistent damage per shot

One shot from a 2H will generally produce twice as much damage vs a 1H. But of course you probably get two shots off from a dual 1H setup in the same time as one shot from a 2H.

And a greater chance for any procs to activate in the same period.

@Archer. There is no way a 2h bow/quiver does the same damage in the same amount of time than 2 high DPS 1h bows with sockets, sorry but no, that is no correct in any way.

Also an easy boost to your ChD

I reckon a Kridershot would make you change your mind

Indeed, well noted

I was explaining the basics of how skills use your weapons base damage to assign the final damage numbers. That is 100% correct in every way

 

[OMB]

I have a RoRG that I haven't put in front of Maryam yet, what should I be aiming for when I do?

Actually its quite possible for the 2-hander to do far more damage in the same amount of time.

If you have a skill that based off your weapon damage and doesnt have a cooldown the 2-hander has the potential to do way more damage than the 1-hander in the same amount of time.

What are the current affixes?

 

[DawieZA]

I have never run with dual one-handed crossbows. Done the single one-handed crossbow/quiver combo plus my old faithful combo, two-handed bow/quiver. At the moment I have two 2.5k DPS one-handed crossbows in my stash. One I managed to roll a socket on but the second is still eluding me. I am really not sure how dual one-handed crossbows will push out more DPS than what I am getting with my current two-handed bow/quiver combo. Guess I will have to keep rolling for a socket to test and see.

I could be wrong but I think you answered your own question. In my estimation, having two sockets, each with a gem doing +130% crit damage is +260% crit damage versus a 2H weapon with one socket doing +130%...
