That’ll be a bug if that’s how it’s working.
this is only scratching the surface to what is possible
theres people out there right now who probably equip a full set of Minion Health/Regen gear and summon their crows then change into another set of gear as it snapshots the regen/hp…fun ways to play I assure you
I’m very prone to death, in the 90 + zone.
any prediction whether the giantslayer interaction with reign of winter proc will be nerfed?
No idea. And this build IMO feels better than the straight detonatimg arrow build
Why would it be nerfed? It already has a -80% damage modifier that should be inherited by the proc.
I hope it doesn’t get nerfed. It’s so much fun. I transitioned from LA to flurry/multishot to pure multishot, and when I swapped to this bowmage build, the power was palpable. I just hope that the multiple proc’s from overlapping multishots don’t get hard-capped or something. Thanks for the guide @lizard and @boardman!
Hey @boardman21, I’m following your leveling guide and wondering when to transition to this build. It looks like the only way to get this bow is by farming Heorot at the level 90 timeline.
I’m pretty new to this game, and this is only my second char (the first one is lvl 65). Will I be able to follow your Marksman leveling guide to get this char to Heorot? Is there any way I can get the bow earlier?
Welcome to the community.
You cannot get the bow any earlier, but you could farm it with a different char of higher level if you have.
The leveling guide should be able to take you to and defeat him.

Hi there!
For Detonating Arrow, these 2 nodes don’t seems to synergize at all:
You use Barrage (No arming time) + Arrow of decay (while they have an arrow attached), but i don’t see any difference regarding ennemies speed. 
Am I missing something to make it work ?
This was mentioned before, you are correct they should not be working together. I havent talked to lizard about it yet but maybe it was bugged and working and thats why their there. You can change the points around if you like, it wont change the build all that much.

Because of this build I started playing a bow character for the first time ever in any arpg. So far it is getting better and better. I am excited how well it will do in monoliths once I have all the benefits from the Story quests.
Do you have suggestions for what passives to prioritize as I go through this build? I’m at lv 73 and I have my points scattered around in all the nodes with some maxed, some left at whatever minimum was needed to move on. Not really sure the best path to take for this.
It might be nice to have some intermediate passive trees in these guides. It doesn’t need to be like the leveling ones since you aren’t going to be really playing the build until endgame, but it might be nice to break it down by say a lv 55 tree for just starting endgame, a lv 70 tree for when you get access to the bow (or some equivalent midpoint in a different build) and then the final lv 100 one.
Why not use Troaka’s Teeth ?
For my character who has not as not yet reached 80+ dexterity it increases Icicle damage.
You can if you like. The up to 90% cold damage is nice for icicles.
Also the name eludes me but the unique quiver with 50% glancing blow is also really nice for defense
Troaka’s Teeth compared to my current quiver reduces my bow attack speed and so increases the time to stack Sharpshooter. I think it’s a loss of damage on short fights.
The one you’re looking for is Arrowguard I think
With only like 2 or 3 points only in sharpshooter you can keep up 10 Stacks of sharpshooter forever even against Single enemies as the lightning tendrils and all other bow attacks you trigger proc sharpshooter.
Why atrack speed might be superior is that you proc those icicles and multishot attacks more often and therefore have higher dmg output and stun / slow more often too.
Would be really curious what is better damagewise in the end.
Wish they would calculate damge as precisely as in POE / Path of Building.
Can someone post " best in the slot " if u have plus 2 lvls of detonating arrow what would be better?
i just came back to play this build becous i only like marksman
