Point Blank Marauder Archer

404 Dex 180 Str Bow Marauder

Iron Grip Keystone converts physical damage from str to ranged damage.

Point Blank Archer Keystone increases close range bow damage by 50% but decreases long range damage.

It's a hybrid build, so I'm not sure how great it will be in the later levels. Got some piercing shot, 3.5% life regen, +65% life, +80% evasion, +4 frenzy charges, and +100%ish crit chance & dmg.

Update.. I went ahead and made this character.. with some adjustments.

I'm level 60 HC now. From level 1-53 I was able to walk through pretty much everything. I didn't have to do much grinding. I played most zones around the monster level +/- 1 or 2. (because I thought I read the penalty was after 2 levels.. didn't catch the +1/8levels caveat until I was lvl 55).

Current Passive Build



The DPS is listed with my 5 frenzy charges activated. My split arrow is only ~700 dps but has 88% piercing.

My fairly weak armor and evasion rating is countered by some good life regen, 900 hp, life per hit from a couple skills, and my granite flask.



As I said, level 1-54 was a breeze. Now at 60, I'm cautiously walking through Act II Merciless quests with more near-death experiences than I like have. I can still survive, and bosses are pretty easy, but large blue mobs or reflect can creep up on you.

Sounds really interesting and creative, wish I could give more feedback but a lack of beta invite keeps me ignorant on most of the items and spells to build around.

Well I can't see the skills but that looks interesting and similar to something I'm trying (Posted in the firebow thread, recent).

What kind of gear are you using? armor or Evasion Rating?
