I think it's highly unlikely that you can achieve such a huge difference with and without SS. I have about 30k clean without SS and with SS max also about 50k. Unless you have insane amount of crit damage with low crit chance? Haha. At high levels, dex gives you better damage output rather than damage rings. Use a damage calculator to compare your existing stats and your future probable stats is the best way. Personally I will go for dex + attack speed over dex + crit dmg + crit chance unless you are able to have a really high crit rate and dmg. Then again, the differential in cost is probably alot.

Finally downed Diablo Inferno. Frustrating because you need to pay attention for entire fight because one mistake most likely result in your death.

My stats when I downed Diablo :


I didn't use Shadow Power for the fight though. Kinda pointless and resource hogging.

anyone can confirm a 2H xbow with 900 dps + 46% weapon dmg + 45% crit dmg > 2H xbow w/ 900 dps + 17% AS + 45% crit dmg?

IAS and ASI nerfed? or it's just IAS.

I keep dying even in hell mode.. Lvl 52 with 12k hp consider very low right?.. Jumpa Mortar Champion str8 die if no run

DH where can take 3 hits in inferno? max is jus 1 hit... 1 hit from inferno is almost left 20% to 30% hp...

@polarbearz

Your dmg almost same like me after patch.Managed to kill siegebreaker up to azmodan today, but definitely not farmable(not with high rep cost).


I think with our stats just farm act 2 slow2 can d.No need to rush.

Hp 25k, dex 1.5k, resist 400, critical chance 37.5%, critical damage 188%, dps 41939, the stats ok or no?

guy need an input...since the price of 1handxbow is ridiculous...is a bow + quiver setup better? i have round 2mil to spend what should i look for in a bow + quiver?

i dun understand. what are you talking about? the piercing chance of hungering arrow? the damage increase of devouring arrow with each successful pierce? the amount of damage increase when you crit? the amount of spray of teeth damage?

for piercing chance of hungering arrow and damage increase of DA (devouring arrow rite?) for each pierce they are both fixed at 35% chance and 70% damage increase per pierce respectively. they are not tied to crit chance in any way.

and if you are talking about damage increase of a critical hit they are no fixed value and is dependant on gear and some skills (?) to increase it with the base value being +50% damage.

for spray of teeth the damage value is fixed at 50% of the initial hit.

sorry but i really pening lolz

It's alot of mathcraft where they calculate the overall dps increase when

1. you use SoT, which is the 50% extra when u crit, easy enough, calculation is based on assumption of 30% crit chance most the time so they can calculate an average median of times when you proc SoT to calculate the dps increase.

2. you use DA, which is where the number crunching is, because the pierce itself has a chance to trigger another pierce for another extra 70% and so on.
So it's not actually a flat 35% chance for 70%, but more than that due to extra pierces, and they also factor in if the pierce crits or does not crit etc.

It's a giant wall of mathcraft that I dont think you want to read through, haha.

TLDR - HA always better for 1 - 2 targets,
SOT better for AoE situations but will always lose in single target dept.

Math is all done assuming 30% crit chance iirc, anything lower and it's not worth using SoT

Bingo, that's the one, lol.

Wtf 86.7% crit rate to use SoT, lol.

How's the Night Stalker proc? I heard it's not very fantastic.

Hei guys, what build do u guys normally use to farm on inf act 3?

Whenever I fight those elite/champs, I hardly chunk of they hp ... is my dmg too low?

Natalya'S set is now buffed with +2disp regen/sec.

whadya all think :?

combined with ss and night stalker . DH will have 'near' immortality

should DH focus more on armor or all resist? i'm trying not to get 1-shotted in act 3.. currently i have about 2.8k armor/100 all resist/24k hp/32k dps without SS

What u guys think of my DH now..

48k Hp
2.8k Armor
1.8k Dex
2x 600++ dps bow
Critical damage about 189%
normal damage 30k without SS
with SS about 50k
1.9 iAS

all jumbled up

hmm now im in dillema.. whether to:

Option 1.

- get higher dex + vit + critical damage + higher damage (without caring resistance)

OR

Option 2.

- get higher resist and maintain HP, with of coz higher dex + higher damage

my res now lowest at about 150 --> 200 if not mistaken...

Star emerald ?! @.@"

Not really.They are saying that future patches will refine the skills more, so Natalya set will be good for a disc heavy build, but there'll sure to be more builds that arent disc centric.
Btw, finally got my Skull Grasp! 

Boosted my dps by quite a bit.Even though its the most pricey thing Ive ever bought, I justify it by the +20-43 dmg as being more than a maxed ruby could get me haha.

[attachmentid=2917984]

Though you already can see my ring since you added me 

I act Inferno Act 1 now. Barely survived elites here. 20k hp with 37k DPS with SS. My stat is damn crappy but i will change my crappy bow and pants later to boost my dps.

How much resist, hp, dps you guys need to survive inferno?

So.. anyone know how much res or hp you need to withstand one hit from your shadow clone for inferno diablo?

I can keep my distance from diablo well and kite him, but when the shadow clone appears it's instant KO, even though I already press SS, just appearing next to me I'm already dead. This is 2nd and 3rd appearance, at least the first appearance I can time it a little.

fwiw I have 58k dps non-ss. help.

guys, need some suggestion that i need to increase my DPS to at least 50k with SS.

I got 4M in pocket, what should i get?
