Is Lycander's Aim the best PvM bow?

**DeMarki** · 21-02-2006, 15:48

I found a Lycander's Aim in Act3 Nightmare and I'm pretty sure it one of the best PvM bows in the game. I was just wondering if there are better bows than this one cause if not, I would like to personalize it and perhaps even upgrade it if I can find a Lum rune later on.

Hey congratulations on finding a lycander's aim. I'm trying to find one myself, because my bow sucks... but anyways, lycanders aim, is a pretty good bow. It does more damgage than my bow, and I am towards the end of act 2 Hell. So it should be able to carry to through most of hell. However, many rares can spawn with better mods and the elite bow are all better than it in terms of damage and other stats.

What realm are you playing on ? I have a spare one ;o)

It's not bad, but I like WWS better. Also, Lycander's Aim is nothing compared to the high end bows, like Windforce and Faith.

Lycanders is great when you're leveling thru nightmare diff, in hell it's only useful if you do 1 player games, otherwise some monsters will regen hp faster than you can damage them.

Nope, Lycander's Aim is far from "the best". Nonetheless it's a good bow I like :smiley: .

change the word "best" to "worst" or "most craptacular"

Looking at his threads eariler and in the other forum, this is probably one of the best bows he has found so far. So, don't start saying stuff like that. Not everyone can afford a faith you know.

Anyways, if that bow is not cutting it in hell, I would suggest a harmony. It's cheaper than upping the bow.
