[Guide] Bow Amazon (7.59) english

Olfmo:
please do not use the babelfish translations it's just cruel :)

i'm gonna translate you text in a better english (although i have really trouble understanding you german text because the grammar is just strange :P)

i didn't mean that, i meant the cold arrow converts the physical into elemental damage (like magic arrow) but it is better because he doesn't need synergies (it is only for magic/physically immune boss monsters/champions, freezing arrow is of course for piercing the immunities of the normal monsters but doesn't have to be maxed)

btw i'm not sure about the names of the arrows perhaps i mixed something up there^^

Darkshield:
 hello@all
i am currently running a BowZone ( ok in reality it is a hybrid bow/java ) and i wanted to add a few things i noticed during play. I am using freezing arrow to stop a mob or kill phys imunes and either strafe or lightning fury to kill off mobs . well works great so far :) . but in one point u are right , 100% pierce is important ( either for bow or java ) cause with pierce and freezing arrow u can stop a whole mob ( a mob that is not cold imune anyway ) so i put 21 points in pierce skill to get 100% pierce ( with skill boni from items ) . i put only 1 point in magic arrow , guided arrow , multishot and 10 or 12 in strafe ; none in the fire tree ; freezing arrow max , few ( 5 or 6 so far ) in ice arrow and some ( 12 i think) in cold arrow . in Java i have 1 point jab and one point in prerequisite skills for lightning fury and LF maxed out .
for equipment at the mom i use diva set , Bloodraven set belt, gloves, boots ( the 6 part set ), a COH wirefleece armor, a +2 skill ( and some add ons ) rare tiara with Blood runeword and a grand matron bow with faith runeword.
for java equipment i have the Jupiters Rage set ( the spear socketed with 3 Ber runes for crushing blow and the shield with 3 empty sockets so far ).
i think the magic arrow could be a nice add on but since cold arrow is a synergy skill for freezing arrow and since coldarrow is also converting phys damage to elemt./magic damage (analog for the fire tree) u don't really "need" the magic arrow skill. and i don't know if pierce is really working with the magic arrow, it seemed to me that magic arrow is making one hit and finish ( but i may be wrong ) .

@countdracula : a good Guide for starters , it would be an idea to put an equipmentlist for low/mid/high level chars in it

for a start :as low level equip i would suggest tempered rare rings and tempered rare amu with skill, resi and  LL ( maybe life/mana ) (tempering rings and amus makes them wearable at level 1 ); gloves,belt,boots could be tempered rares ( or the starting set belt from the ama, boots from the pala set , gloves from the assa set ) , from level 25 on u could use the Psychos Revenge set ; headgear no real "thats it" suggestion here from me ( i used what i had on hand ), the same for armor, as weapon i started with some basic javellins then the starting set bow , with level 24 i used either Ragnarok Sliver or a tempered rare with the runeword Sting.

ok CU Dark

countdracula:
I don't really think it is necessary to take extra items for the lowlvls. Just take what you find should be enough (maybe some bartucs items or so).

The only thing that does matter is the bow. lvl 16-24 is pretty hard with the starter bow. Maybe somebody has some tips here - especially if you do not have a tempered rare bow.

According the magic arrow: You use java skills, so you should have no problem with immunes. If you play a bow only ama, you have the magic arrow for physical + cold immunes.

Shinlos:
U need M-Arrow  for having a third element against Dual immunes. U could also kill them with fire, but most monsters have lower Resis (not Immunities) against Magic.
Mana isn't a Problem u easily leech enough to be full when hitting one other Enemy.

Darkshield:
@ countdracula
the uni huntersbow "carrionwind" could be a good alternative from lev 10 (imho) to level 24 , it comes with 1 or 2 sockets , acceptable damage and leech.

cu dark

@countdracula and shinlos
ok thats a good point , btw i think i found why i havn't skilled it ... somehow i missed that i cubed magicarrow on the teddy :)
so mea culpa ... i will try playing the ama with only the bowskills for a while to test if having the javaskills makes such a great difference.

cu Dark
