How to incrase my min damage?

[GagLV]

I have been looking at some threads where peoples say that their min damage with a WF is over 1k. With my crappy gear min damage is around 170 and max 1,7k. So what should i do and what to equip to get a bigger min damage? poison charms perhaps?

[Dacar92]

No, don't bother with poison charms. They work too slowly for a bowazon. A bowazon is supposed to be fast and poison is just a waste of inventory space. Maybe in act 1 normal where the monsters have 25 Hp'S.

What bow are you using?

[GagLV]

For the first time i was lucky enough to get a gul from the hellforge so i bought myself a windforce, but the rest of my gear is still crappy except for the laying of hands.

Why do you want higher min damage? Are you experiencing slow killing speeds or something or is just the LCS bothering you? .-) WF is killer bow, and if you have sufficient attack speed, you don't need to care about min/max but about average dmg.

Unless you are talking about GA dmg, maybe...

Just like Dacar92 said, the placebo effect of poison scs is great (especially when looking on LCS damage) but real effect is not worth the inventory space.

What is your DEX?

[GagLV]

At level 80 my dex is 278 and the killing speed, in my opinion, is very slow. So far its the slowest mf'er i have ever made.

The guide says that i should get comfortable with solo pit runs and then move over to pit runs with more players, but at this moment i can't imagine how i could run pits in more player difficulty. So all i want to know how to get my damage up. Now that i got my bow i need another source of damage, for example, war travelers gives a bit damage, but i am wondering is there is something else i am missing that gives me the damage that the guy in the guide had. I think it was roughly like 1000-4000

With windforce it's hard to break over 700 minimum damage without using specific gear. Mine did around 700 - 7000. You can use rare rings or rare circlets with minimum damage (rare rings are the best to come by). Also, wartravs and bloodfists give some good +minimum damage. Jewels and charms can also add + min. damage, but those are only effective with a diamond bow.

Are you possibly just missing the monsters when you shoot (AR too low)? You should be able to make pretty short work of the Devilkins and stalkers/archers with Laying of Hands equipped.

What is your AR/% chance to hit those Pit monsters? Remember also that the Pit is a lvl 85 area, which automatically puts your lvl 80 zon at a disadvantage. I think you might find that 5 levels from now, she's doing a lot better down there than she is at the moment.

[GagLV]

OK thanks for the replies guys. I think i will do some baal runs and get my level higher and try to get some AR stuff, because its only at 4500 or something like that.

[sevencreature]

You need at least around 10000 (better more) @ level 90 to be viable in Hell I'd say. Also your DEX is quite low for bowazon (1 point in DEX means 1% ED plus AR of course).

[sevencreature]

Err, correction - you need around 8000 AR @ 90 (oops).
