Help choosing bow and equipment!

[eckfreak]

Need some help guys. I need help choosing equipment for bowazon. I have every bow in the game except WF(which I could get if i wanted). My question is--which one to use. WWS upped,shael,nef-or WF(what to socket?)-or should I try to get a faith bow. I'm not sure what the faith bow does better than WF just looking at it, besides the revives and fanat(which I don't understand having never played a paladin). My other question is what about a BOTD colosus srossbow---would the insane damage offset the speed?

Ok now for the Merc. What to put on him? I have a reapers toll but im wondering about armour and helm.

Next up other equipment. I was thinking
Helm-Gaze
Armour-dont know
gloves-LOH,Unique Vamp
belt- Verdungo's, mavinas,string,?
boots-no clue
AMA-Highlords
rings-2Xraven
What kind of charms should I wear. life,ar,mana,dmg?

Any recommendations for changing equipment would be much appreciated.
P.S. this will be strafe amazon.

gaze forti faith loh goldwrap(for mf+ias) i use metalgrid for much-needed 35 res, +1skills does very little for you. Cat's eye is a good choice for frw and ias.

why 2 ravens? one raven for the CBF and nagel[i love mf ='(] or wisp/ a rare ring with dual leech res or whatever.

+max damage charms imo will give you much more damage.

I can not afford Fort or Enigma at the moment and was leaning on using WWS so thats why Highlords. Any other armour reccomendations would be appreciated. also maybe I can just use gore instead of highlords to free up my ammy.

what about smoke or lionheart?

[eckfreak]

I have access to virtually any unique armour but not the high runes for the uber rune words. Is lionheart better for an amazon than any of the uniques?

treachery would be my choice of recommendation for your armor

Anyway its not worth using a Botd Colossus Crossbow since Crossbows have almost a speed cap on their strafe speeds. Using a GMB if you have it would be a better choice or if you want more speed just an MB. Botd Hydra bows are decent but the str req is still quite high.
