Nr 1 choice is faith, if u can build botd u can build faith
Nr 2 is Windforce with 40/15 jewel (very very close to faith in kill speed) - my personal preference
Nr 3 is Botd (maybe) in a Crusader Bow (avg dmg same as hydra, more min dmg, lower str req)
Laying for gloves as Kubricks said OR Lava Gouts for increased ar and dmg from enchant.
Fortitude armor (outside of very expensive 4 x 40/15 jewel armor) is bis
let me know if u need
Bone touch gloves - 2/20 bow gloves 3 lifeleech fire res 12 - ist
Laying of hands - lem
Lava gouts - lem
Storm Brow Circlet - +2 ama skill, +8 min dmg +7 max dmg + 72 mana +14 all res - offer
Also dont stress too much for + skills gear on bowazon, it does not matter as much, it is highly gear dependent tho

i got 200%ed Valk wing with +3 mana kill and rare gloves with +2 bow skills, 20% increase attach speed 19% LR, 5% PR, and 22%MF
is the valk wing +2 skills youngd8?
ALDO googled it, definatly change of plans faith is the new idea… i now have a 6 socketed hydra bow now tho
got laying, many laying so thats sorted, that circlet seems good but i’ll wait till my friendly d2 trade person wakes up bc they know more about the value of things than me but it sounds decent. Thanks for the tons of advice 
What’s a good armour and boots for a bowazon?
Yes +2 amazon skills, also it’s gloves not circlet for the rare one
Fortitude armor in wirefleece (or light armor) + war travs as boots 
You need razortail for belt, and skill in pierce to reach 67% (razor does the rest of 33%) for a combined of 100% chance to pierce
Let me know if u need the circlet later, no problem
Cheers
awesome, thanks for the info ALDO, what does a razortail go for roughly?

Lem rune most of the times
Btw another good choice for helm would be a guillaumes face with 15ias X ed jewel in it
oh thats not much, thats good
i might offer pul/um to get it fast, not sure tho.
I’ve got guillaume’s face, i diddent think crushing blow worked in ranged weapons?
Is it a physical bowazon or magezon?
how do you mean? I’m using strafe and the wide spread skill mainly
It works, just not as efficient as close range
Close - 1/4 health taken
Range - 1/8 health taken
Gface is esp good on bosses
For mobs there are other good choices
Best in slot is a circlet/diadem or bone visage with 30% fast run walk socketed with 3 ruby jewels of fervor
but thats really expensive
If you use strafe more try get an atma’s scarab for a lem, the AD proc kill things quick and deals with PI.
Fortitude is almost required, so is war trav.
Oh also raven frost with good dex.

awesome thanks for the info ALDO, jewel stuff sounds expencive, i only got some ok jewels, just good enough that they aint good for crafting.
yea i use straife more Kubricks, I’ll definatly try to get that, looking at it seems really nice.
fortitude is definatly gonna be gotten same as war travs.

I would save the runes and use windforce, until you wanna go faith route.
Standard entry lvl strafzon setup;
- Windforce socket with shael or ed/ias jewel (total 35~40IAS)
- Andy’s helm with ed/ias jewel (35IAS)
- Laying of Hands (20IAS)
- War Trav for dmg
- Fortitude for dmg
- Ravenfrost + whatever ring you like
- Razortail for pierce and dex
- Might merc
You now have 90IAS for 9/3 strafe which is kinda minimum, this allows you to use atma’s for damage.
Or else you can use Highlords/Cat’s eye + Goldwarp to have a total 120IAS for 9/2 which felt great but you lose ability to deal with PI.
Try this first, if you like the gameplay then you can build a Faith setup.

Can I jump in and ask for advice? So I am trying to build my final Bowazon build here, atm I have as follows:
WF with Shael
Andy’s with RAL
Fortitude
LoH
War Trav
Ravenfrost
Rare Ring with LL, cold/fire RES and min dmg, strength and AR
Cat’s Eye (or Highlords)
My next upgrade was meant to be a faith on the merc, is this the way to go?
I use mainly Multishot as I like it more, but with upcoming patch Strafe seems to be better in several situations, so probably I’ll end up using both skills.
Lvl 87 Ama at the moment, so my biggest doubt is if to make faith for merc or make it in a GMB and use it myself, but I wouldn’t have any other high runes for making a pride merc (I understand that would be the alternative build to WF + faith merc).
Any advice is appreciated
thx
