Straifer ?

[Blis]

at what point...if ever should I switch from my upped WWS to a Harmony for my straifer....
Kinda noobish question i know, but I have never taken the time to think about it till just now at work, being the highly perductive personel that I am.

[Evrae Altana]

Switch to Harmony when you:
1) want to give Valk a little prebuff
2) have some physical immunes you want to kill
3) want to run faster

[Omikron8]

never switch

harmony:

less IAS
far less damage after the constant double damage of WWS
no resistances
valk bonus shouldn't matter, strafers are overflowing in spare points
vigor aura won't help you in combat
a few hundred elemental damage means nothing in hell

[Blis]

well, my Straifer has reached a stall, her damage is so minimal that by the time things start to die, so is my merc and valk....I have the basic gear set up in the wws guide, I just seem to be lacking some serious damage.

[AnimeCraze]

More lvls, more +damage charms (+max/AR charms in particular), might merc.

[Omikron8]

and overflowing dex

[borok]

put extra points on dexterity it add more damage

I don't know, maybe this is a bit high end, but I LOVE my "Faith" bow! My strafer kicks but in hell and I don't care if they are physical immune. I do have a few poison charms on her, which I'm sure helps, but I mostly run the hall of pain looking for keys - ZERO problems!

I couldnt agree more! i have a strafer and this her equipment:
Faith bow with 1 skills and level 12 fanat
Highlords wrath
Gore riders
draculs grasp
2 ravens
Dream Runeword
string of ears 8% ll
Fortitude

with this i can easily run pits and cows no problem with damage looking at the low 5k

i use pretty much the same setup except i have cats eye amu, nosferatus coil, war travs and some crafted ias, passive, kb gloves, everything dies just looking at her. what speed attack are you hitting with that setup, seems pretty slow to me.

well its proablly not the fastest but i think its 8fpa im not sure someone told so thats what im going with. I dont like nos coil becuse all it has is dr but string of ears has dr and ll which to me is better. Now i do have a cats lord amy but i dont like it very ,uch. With high ord i have the deadlystrike which is very good for me becusae i didnt invest in critical stirke for that reason so i find it mroe effectieve to use highlords and with gore riders the deadly strike and open wouds works beautifully wiht all the arrows were pumping out. So i would rather do more damge then have a faster ias. Do you use a act 2 might merc?

no i use an act1 merc with harmony, i use this strafer to run pits so being able to get about quickly helps a lot. my ama only just reaches the 8 frame attack although you didn't say what base weapon your faith bow was. i like cats eye due to the frw and the large dex with adds a huge amount of damage.

Its in a grand matriarcal bow so its base speed i belive its fast and if your just hitting 8fpa then im a little slower ebcasue you have more ias then i do but then i must be around 9 or so but it still does what it needs. I also run pit runs but i think i might have a little higher resits then you and plust the more damage although you probally can get through pit runs a lot faster then me. I was using a act 2 might merc and i was staking auras on him but i think im going to switch to a act1 merc with harmony for the vigor.... i have the dream for her so she will have holy shock and i have bramble so she has thorns soo i will mostly just use her for her auras not killing ability

OMG, how could I forget the gloves! Dracs Grasp is awesome on this build! I also have "Stone" armor which give me a gumby to throw around. Not a real good minion, but he hangs for a few seconds, lol.
