Hi,

I got some things @ mules that i can use:
O.O Means Or Other (so mayb you can suggest a better item)
Bow= already choosen (up'd WWS)
Second BOW= Harmony (for the nice damage and vigor). O.O
ARMOR= i got treachery atm, i think this one is kinda good !
Gloves= Lava gout or Rare 2 bow sk, 10 ias, minor mods (life leech too). O.O
Boots= Gore Riders Or SandStorm Or WaterWalk O.O
Belt= Nostrafatu's, String of ears, Razorfail O.O
Helm= Rare 2 ama sk, 7 mana leech, 18 STR, 17 DEX, 14 all resist. Vamp gaze O.O
Rings, amu= dont really know, i got : Manalds, Highlords O.O

I think i aim for like 90 ias ?
I hope people can suggest some things that i can get !

I suggest dumping all remaining stat points into Dex as you continue to level. Yours seems a bit low, but then again, when I did my Witchyzon, I went with as much Dex as I could get (450-480 Dex on her at Level 85 w/ equipment).

As far as skills go, I recommend adding points to Penetrate if your AR is below 8-10K.

"Treachery" is very nice and cheap armor. I use it on all my Bowazons, with the exception of my Frostmaiden who uses full M'avina's Set. It makes hitting IAS breakpoints much easier. It's a keeper. Venom's ~300 poison damage is the icing on the cake.

To kill faster in many areas, I suggest Laying of Hands. 350% ED to demons, 50% fire resistance, and 20% IAS. These are some of the best zon gloves you'll ever find. I used Lava Gouts for a while (and I like them), but you can get a much higher level Enchant (20 or 21 I think) from Demon Limb. Try that instead, so you can free up your glove slot for LoH. +2 bow skill gloves, etc. is good, but better on a Frostmaiden, where +skills add a lot of punch to elemental bow skills. Other nice ones would be 20% IAS 10% Crushing Blow crafted Blood gloves, ideally with +2 Passives (or +2 Bow if you were a hybrid Strafer/Frostmaiden) or nice crafted knockback ones.

Boots: only two real contenders IMO. (Unless you need a lot of ready-made CB, for which I would use Goblin Toes + Cat's Eye.)

If you want to add Crushing Blow to your setup, and this is a real nice effect with a Witchyzon Strafer to ramp up the carnage, use Goreriders. 15% Crushing Blow, 15% Deadly Strike, etc. all nice. Add in some more CB to that you're between 20-30% and you're set to go.

If you do have some CB from other equipment, I would recommend using War Traveler's for added stats and 10-25 off-weapon +damage. It'll add a couple hundred extra damage with high Dex and WWS's Deadly Strike and Amp kicking in often. This is really good.

I would use Razortail over Nosferatu's or String of Ears. 100% Piece helps you kill much faster as arrows penetrate and go through packs and proc effects like Amp and CB often. Remember that WWS's Amp can cover half to a whole pack when it procs, so you want it to proc as often and as early as possible on enemies, to set them up for quick kills.

Rings: either a dual leech or nice life leech ring if you can, since you're getting mana leech from your zon circlet. Highlord's isn't really optimal on this build, IMO, because as you get higher, into your 80s, using Goreriders would put you at 95%+ Deadly Strike and any more than that is wasted. Consider using Cat's Eye. It strikes me as the best bowazon amulet for this build.

Make sure you're also hitting the fastest Strafe breakpoint you can with your setup, so you can proc Amp like crazy. I don't remember the Strafe breakpoints very well now, since I haven't played a Witchy in a while, but I think you should be able to hit them easily with your listed equipment and proper socketing of the bow. Good luck with your Witchyzon. :thumbsup:

You need a lot of dex, thats for sure - Try out a Ravenfrost, most bowas keep one of these (or two). The Cannot Be Frozen on it is also a real lifesaver.
With a beef-valk like that, ever considered trying Edge Bow? The thorns aura will make melee mosters rip themselves apart when trying to bring your valk or decoy down.

Edge - Tir + Tal + Amn (we like!)
Level 15 Thorns Aura When Equipped (we like!)
+35% Increased Attack Speed (we like!)
+320-380% Damage To Demons (we like!)
+280% Damage To Undead (we like!)
+75 Poison Damage Over 5 Seconds (we don't care, oh god we don't)
7% Life Stolen Per Hit (nice)
Prevent Monster Heal (oh yes)
+5-10 To All Attributes (another nice)
+2 To Mana After Each Kill (always welcome)
Reduces All Vendor Prices 15%!!! (Gamblers ohoy)

The upped WWS should pack enough damage anyway. But as mentioned, you need dex. 1point in dex=1%ed for bowas, if Im not mistaken

What merc do you use? A2 might?

@ maiku

lol my AR is 1522 :| :S...
So your suggestion is gorerider, LoH, Cats eye, Razortail, and some leech rings, oké, mayb i try on Ravenfreost too ty all !
Btw: LoH is from the disciple set right ?

 

[MuffinMan]

That is correct

 

[Lizardking]

hmm, mayb got a pair on one of my mules, i think it's not THAT expensive.
Just checked my mules, but didnt find a pair of the gloves, so i think i need to trade it, i think 2 lums or somethin will do it

Why did you post the same question with two different topic names? This is considered spam. Everything discussed here has already been discussed in your previous post.

How do you hit anything with an AR so low? Bump that up to 8-10K or more and you'll notice your kill speed go up a lot. Invest in Penetrate for goodness sake!

Yes, if you can, Goreriders, Laying of Hands from the Disciple Set, Cat's Eye, Razortail, Ravenfrost, and a nice leech ring ought to do you right. Using Stealskull, eventually I was able to go dual Ravenfrosts on my zon for max effect.

There's no really "perfect" Witchyzon setup (because it depends on what you want to get from her), but there are some things that you'll want your equipment to provide for this build, which I listed in an older post:

Also, I must agree with Blushnine that if you are posting the same question in multiple threads, that's not a good thing here on the forums. We will find your Amazon and shoot her full of arrows for violating the tribe's traditions. So please don't do it. :thumbsup:
