4os +3 Matriarchal bow - where?

Where is the best place to look for a grey Matriarchal bow with 4 sockets and +3 Amazon Bow and Crossbow Skills?

This is for making a Harmony runeword (obviously) and for the record I'm not rich and I don't trade. My best character is a level 76 MeteOrb sorc in Act I Hell and she's the one that has to do the searching for this bow.
I play SC, ladder.

I found most of my MB/GMBs in Flayer jungle this ladder season. Not a good place for a sorc though. You'll want to search for it in the cow level as well, again not sure how well your sorc will do there. Generally I'd just pick a Hell area with a large number of easy to kill monsters. Also get rid of your mf gear, so you'll get more socketables and less magical items.

Hi m8,
I was doing some nm baal runs to lvl my friend some days ago. I think the minions dropped like 3 or 4 matri bows within 10 runs.
Too bad not a single one had 3 skills ...
Maybe you should take a look over there

I also need a 4os Mat bow +3 (brand runeword for me) NM Baal runs are a good place to look but don't tele straight to the Throneroom. A lot of the monsters on the way will drop a Mat bow.

Look for the +3 and socket it with the cube recipe, you'll get the one you want adventually, probably before you find one that has all your looking for.

With every +3 white bow you find you will have a 1/6 chance of getting 4 sockets, if you get 5 sockets you can mostlikely trade that for something as well. or if you get 5 you could be unique with your very own CTA matriarchal bow.

get a strafer with no mf on her and do the pits. You will find alot of non-socketed armors and weapons.

I can't believe i'm about to ask this.. but where's this pit of which you speak?

 

[CoRRuPt-OnE]

Act 1 in the Tamoe Highlands. Usually i Take the Outer Cloister Wp and go backwards from there. Also, its a good spot to find runes, i have found me a couple vex's and other high runes so you could get lucky as well.

I need to do more pit runs too ,-)

agreed with the cube recipe. a very underrated formula.

ive cubed up all sorts of stuff with that recipe:

2x 4os +3 gmb
2x 4os +3 matri bow
5 os zerker axe
2x 4os eth thresher

etc etc.

point is, keep all white items and just use the socket recipe. the runes/gems are cheap, and the rewards are great

oh, and cows of all difficulties are great for white items. the monster density is unparalleled.
