Faith Demon Crossbow

[KICKZILLA]

Hi, I wanna make a Faith in a Demon Crossbow... this is by far the fastest bow (and weap?) in the game at -60 ias base (compare to matriarchal bow -10 ias base, and both 33 avg dmg).

My question is... what is the fastest ias bp i can get with stacked gear...

- this bow with lvl 15 fanat aura
- 20 ias gloves
- 20 ias cat's eye
- 45 ias helm
- 60 ias armor
- 10 ias belt

What's the fastest breakpoint I get with this? I tried reading the charts but it's confusing

crossbows cap at 11/3

demon crossbow is base -60

therefore it's a waste to put faith in it because a demon crossbow only needs like 15 ias to hit 11/3, and faith gives way more than that

put it in gorgon crossbow instead, or colossus

Damn alright, I just want to try something different... I'm not sure. Here's some options I've been thinkin of:

Demon crossbow in a Brand? or Faith... whatever is more damage
43% poison Bramble
trang gloves
cat's eye
whatever belt...
gores or 30 rw 10 fhr tri res boots

helm: if Brand, then don't need knockback so i dunno...most damage helm, like 3x 40 ed with +max or min dmg jewels?

helm option 2: if Faith, then Giant skull with 2x of those jewels

charms: 10x 3frw/ar/life scs, 26x 175 psn dmg scs, torch, anni

What do you think? I made a post of this before but it was with a faith matriarchal/gmb which require IAS gear (45 helm, gloves, armor) so the dmg would be low

But with demon crossbow dont need that ias gear and can concentrate on massive dmg and poison... thoughts?

any bowazon will have 20 ias on her gloves

you also have 20 on your ammy

using nos coil for its slow and +str will give you 10 more

i believe a 14/15 aura faith gorgon hits 11/3 with 50 ias so there is no reason to put it in a demon crossbow

this pvp? if it's pvm you will need leech on your helm like andy's/tal/stealskull

if this is pvp rethink your heavy poison idea as most pvp bowazons die much sooner than the time necessary to wear down your opponent with poison

also the vast majority of pvp zons use mat/gmb for faith because the 11 frame GA speed of crossbows means certain death in pvp since you are standing for almost half a second

Well there goes that idea... back to the Barbarian forum for me
