Guide: WS K Amazon

You're welcome. Always glad to see that some people find these things useful.

Since there were no major screwups I'd appreciate if a Mod could link this into the guide compilation thread.

Yup I agree. This has become one of my favorite MF builds. One of my fav builds overall actually.

How would it fare in a /players 8 Cow run? Is fast enough or for that you should make all out LF javazon?

[Nightfish]

Imo there is no big difference between this and another 40% extra lightning damage from more synergy so I'd say it works about equally well. Still I prefer my blizzard sorc for cow runs.

Can I have some advice on finding a +3 bow&crossbow skills bow please? Cows? Pits?

Where did you get yours NF? :wink3:

[Nightfish]

Any area will do, really. I picked up a dozen +3 GMBs as a byproduct of MFing the WS K. Cows will do as well. My problem is I never realised that matriarchal bows are better which is why I don't have any...

[mtzang]

I've got a white matriarchal bow but its superior so I can't get the socket recipe to work.. was wondering why until I checked the arreat summit. Sigh!

And noone in the trade forum seem to possess one of those white matriarchal bows. Anyways, is Wizardren a good substitute with the -resistance?

[mtzang]

Can't edit... =/

I meant Wizendraw.. =P

[Nightfish]

Yeah, wizendraw works too. It doesn't have to be a matriarchal bow either, of course. That's just the best choice. Any amazon bow with 4 sockets and +3 skills is neat.

Quick question (I'm following your guide in HC): did you get your dex up to 75% blocking? Or would you recommend doing that?

Because if I'm going to 151 str for Tstrokes, might as well go to 190'ish for 75% blocking maybe? However 158 str/151dex leaves for about 170ish for vit, but you do have 75% blocking.

I made a 75 HC Javazon, but I'm about to remake her because all her stats are with tons of +str/dex gear to wear high end stuff and have decent (275+) vit. Because of this I can't switch gear to MF gear if I want to. Im thinking my new one might put hard points into str/dex for Stormshield + Tstrokes, or at least within 20 of each.
