Archer/Hunter (doubt) Earth Melee Build. Fast Attack Speed

This build has extremely high melee attack, at a relatively fast attack speed. Some of the items might be hard to get, but you can't really use any other items than the ones in here, otherwise the build gets a bit slow, which is something that I'm personally not a fan of.
here are the items:

Shimmersight: http://imgur.com/5RrqBbY I chose shimmersight because of the mana regen and the skill points. you can really use any helm similar to this. I just like the 3/4 mr.

Chestplate of Ineptitude: http://imgur.com/Dhho97V I chose this for obvious reasons, considering the melee and the 2 tier attack speed. it also has no skill point requirements which makes it easy to use in builds.

Electrocharge Greaves: http://imgur.com/tKbaLPK Attack speed and melee. gets rid of some earth stats, but doesnt matter cuz still op 11/10. You could also use Clock leggings, but they're kinda hard to get, and they have -1 tier, rather than electrocharge greaves that give you +2 tier. your choice.

Scorpio: http://imgur.com/6SRqjdi really no reason besides its earth boots with insane poison.

Accessories:

Yin: http://imgur.com/GpUFTIz melee damage.

Giant's ring: http://imgur.com/BqVoevj Melee damage and earth stats. you could also just use another Yin ring of you don't want to go through the quest.

Arc Bracer: http://imgur.com/XFcxKQI thorns and dexterity (for electrocharge greaves).

Founder: http://imgur.com/E1PpFIf Just all round good earth necklace.

Bow:

Doubt: http://imgur.com/i69blE3 This baby is insane. It might have been ok before but now with the +4 tier attack speed its an insane weapon. dps is around 3.5k to 4.5k depeding on crits. It's absolutely insane. you could also add t6 earth powder, which would be more insanity. but I don't have any. (cri)

Damages:

Melee hit: http://imgur.com/FNcNXnQ around 4-7k earth and raw

Arrow storm: http://imgur.com/RMfPZMU 200-300 each arrow.

Escape: http://imgur.com/TsB555l around 2-3k :(

Bomb arrow: http://imgur.com/HDGDWIr around 4-6k (just stick to melee)

Arrow shield: http://imgur.com/PEMvQqH around 3k-6k

Stats:

Defenses: http://imgur.com/4rxllX2 Pretty bad...

skill points needed: 100 str/63 dex/0 int/35 def/ 0 agil

So basically this build is purely based on melee damage at a good attack speed. you could switch some items out for different ones focused on melee, but I wanted to keep it balanced with attack speed. Fast attack speed for Doubt is insanaly over powered. If you want more earth damage I suggest you use t6 earth powder on your Doubt. Have fun reking scrubs.

 

wut aobut centipede

 

you could also use centipede. I just chose this one because I want the mana regen and it gives good stats.

 

._.?

 

If you didn't know already, the elemental defenses shown in the compass are very inaccurate, you should probably just calculate them yourself.

 

alright I'll keep that in mind.

 

@naybelline Found a built for you :P

 

Although you could use centipede and earth sanctuary, with the same attack speed, it's really quite hard to obtain both items requiring 24 corrupt lost sanctuary keys and 132 nii runes which I think seriously needs a nerf. But if you can somehow get your hands on both items then use them as a pair with Scorpio and ineptitude. You could also swap Scorpio with warchief, but that's even harder than getting earth sanctuary and centipede.

 

Bump to the top
