what about my setup? ive deciced to use a 120% ed 45 ias helm. coil for belt for pierce and 2x sojs. would this be good? so that gives me 105 ias with botd bow.
Here's some on the setup:
1. Prevent monster heal doesn't work against Ubers. Other than that, you also could try out Windforce for quite a good effect.
2. Seems good enough.
3. Ditch them, and get Knockback/IAS gloves. Or just Cleglaw's Pincers, if you don't need the IAS.
4. Seems good enough.
5. Also good.
6. 45/120 if you can afford one.
7. Ravenfrost + Good rare ring (doesn't have to be dual leech; life leech, stats and AR would be good enough on it).
8. Razortail. Will alow you to save some skill points and have max pierce.

well faith does seem like a good bow. its lacking ias am i right? so what would i socket it with? also draculs are good gloves they have life leech and life tap. why dont they seem good for this build? :confused: i will switch my 2x sojs for 2 ravens that seems better then the sojs. i also forgot to add that i will have 10x +1 passive and magic skill charms.
Faith is a runeword weapon. You use the sockets to create the weapon. Use a 4 socket bow, preferably a grand matron bow. Use the following runes in this order:
Ohm + Jah + Lem + Eld
It gives you the following:
Level 12-15 Fanaticism Aura When Equipped (varies)
+1-2 To All Skills (varies)
+330% Enhanced Damage
Ignore Target's Defense
300% Bonus To Attack Rating
+75% Damage To Undead
+50 To Attack Rating Against Undead
+120 Fire Damage
All Resistances +15
10% Reanimate As: Returned
75% Extra Gold From Monsters
There are many, many, threads that will tell you how much ias you need. Just search on "Faith ias" and that should do it.

well faith does seem like a good bow. its lacking ias am i right? so what would i socket it with?like dacar said it's a runeword bow and is already socketed...you want the option to socket a bow then the best option is a wf
also draculs are good gloves they have life leech and life tap. why dont they seem good for this build?
speed...a strafer needs ias to be viable....you don't want to give up 20 ias from a pair or rare/crafter or my favourites...loh, for life tap....a strafer has the ability to leech back here entire bulb with one strafe with little ll%....the only time that dracs are an option would be if you were soloing ubers...then they will keep you alive

Faith isn't just a "good" bow. It is by far the best damn pvm bow and the only thing that can compete with it or surpass it is windforce in pure physical maximum damage. Even a level 12 fanat aura on faith provides a huge reduction in the amount of IAS you need for 8/2 strafe. Also don't waste your time with a faith mat bow, too much speed not enough damage.

yes i think i will go with faith. on the other hand windforce is also good, but the only diff is higher damage am i right?

Windforce has higher max damage
Faith is
1) much faster
2) +skills
3) ITD + insane AR bonus from fanat, no need for high level of penetrate
4) spawns skeletons good for tanking
if you have very nice back up equipment windforce will win, otherwise for anything poorer faith is just better all around

A godly strafer can solo hell baal runs (8 players)I have a godly strafe/ms zon @ 93 (Faith GMB + Fort + Pride + Might merc + Mavs w/ 37-15 + 380dex and I can't do 8pl hell baal runs within any reasonable time. And if it's not fast, I won't do it.
So what you're saying is - not true.
