I use it and for all bowzons who need more IAS and cant get the expensive ED/IAS Jewels this armor rocks :thumbsup:

The venom damage is nice but I've not found it of greater use in hell. As you can wear this armor ~ lvl 47 (iirc) it'll be a nice boost during nightmare. Might be a good boost for a lvl 50 dueler?

Well as my ama tends to die if something hits me (in hell) fade has rearly been activated :p but when it does it's really nice :D

hi.

i think this armour will be a winner on a amazon, even in hell.

now if it had enhanced defense, then this would have made it godly.

That's where I use it :thumbsup: The speed boost is a must for my strafer and the venom dmg helps against PI:s. I consider the armor great, not the best but "the best for your money" as it is so cheap to make :D

Well I only have 330 life ... (50 vit, no life charms) and this is the reason Fade cant be on all the time. During pitruns it might activate but in later game I'm a one hit kill ...

oh and btw lvl req was only 43 :D

would anyone use this over lionheart for a witchy strafer? Just curious to see how other amazons think of this.

Well a WWS strafer might not need treacherys ias as much as zons using slower bows. If you still reach your wanted strafe speed then go Lionheart I guess ... for the res and life ... but I don't really know ...

Anyone out there, with a bit to much time on their hands, who could do some numbers with different setups?

hi.

i think your lifeforce is too low.

all the amazons that i have made that have done well in hell, all have life 1200-1400.

bowspeed is the key .. kill fast ... leave nothing alive.

yeah I know it's to little ... I'm aming for ~800 ... got to equip some life charms I guess ... reason is that I put almost all points in dex for dmg. Valk and merc for tanking has taken me so far ... and with knockback strafe with good dmg I rarely get hit.

Yes, bowspeed is the key but as WWS is much faster than many bows out there it'll not need as much ias ... those 45 ias might not make you any faster if you already have good ias ...

hi

true... but the 45ias on the armour free's the two sockets on the wws, plus, it leaves you more options for your gloves and sockets on helms.

to me a wws was not a end game bow, even when it was upped, but using two max damage jewels and say clegs gloves could change my thoughts now.

i will be trying this build in the new ladder season.

looking forward to monday.
