how many points into Strafe

[beastmannn]

So how many points do i really need into it for max arrows? I mainly use for killing bosses and what not? I tryed looking threw the stickys but didnt find much..

You will hit 10 arrows max somewhere around slvl 5. So one points should be enough.
Remember though that 10 arrows will only be shot is there are 10 monsters on the screen. Else, less arrows will be shot - at slvl 5, this should be 3 arrows. So if you want to use it as a boss kill skill - which I wouldn't do, guided arrow suits me better - you'll want as many points as possible to hit a high number of minimum arrows.

Check out the summit for the correct formula.

either 0 or 20

multishot is a better crowd killing skill in most situations and the only way to get the high minimum arrows for strafe is to get high strafe skill level (or +skills but physical bowazons won't have much of that)

max strafe will kill bosses faster than max guided unless your hit chance is horrible (unlikely because of high dex + penetrate)

For me, Strafe is more about minimum arrows than maximum. And vs Diablo, I only use Strafe(I get up in his face and strafe away)

I've always been a fan of the 1 pt in jab and a big a$$ spear for taking down bosses.

And I've always maxed strafe on my bowzons.
