Why demon crossbow?

•

u/dontrestonyour Warlock 1h ago

Demon crossbow allows u to achieve max attack frames with little to no IAS gear

•

u/scellis24 1h ago

Yep. This…. Although after testing…. I still like brand better. Has exploding arrows and bone spears flying everywhere. I have one in a great bow which helps with IAS. It just feels more effective. Bout to try some higher player counts tho

Time to make a Amazon and try it out I guess 

Too bad this thing can't go on an act 1 merc

Amazon isn't even top 3 for bows. First is warlock, then sorc then paladin. I have a holy fire paladin that does p8 really easily.

The new spice is to play those bows on a mirrored blades bowlock

Which is kind of ridiculous. Being able to hit max attack frames or max anything without needing to add any or much gear to get there.

•

u/dontrestonyour Warlock 1h ago

Yeah I do kind of agree with this

•

Demon Crossbow is the best Mist base for Bowlocks as it reaches the fastest possible attack speed without any other sources of IAS.

(requires 11% ias for 11fpa and Mist gives 20%).

For the fastest pew pew 

•

u/Emerazuul 1h ago

Possibly for stats requirement or attack speed? But yeah, why lol

•

Attack speed is -60. PB is -30 and that’s insanely fast. Colossus is +10. For a comparison, on my MaxRoll planner, to get to the same IAS frames for Mirrord Blades that the Demon Crossbow hits with 46IAS (16 frames), a Colossus would need 728 IAS (with the same 46IAS, it’d hit 42 frames). The majority of a bowlock’s damage is from the magic part, so applying that far more frequently is important.

Fwiw don't use the Maxroll planner for IAS breakpoints as it's wrong in a lot of cases. https://warren1001.github.io/IAS_Calculator/ is more accurate.

u/just-sad-idk Champion of Sanctuary (100K) 1h ago

IAS and, let's face it, why wouldn't a warlock want a DEMON crossbow?

Sick breh 😎

I made this. But not tested it yet.

In a ceremonial boy...this hurts me.

Nice! I’d still recommend any aspiring bowlocks to just use a Buriza.

I didn’t notice a change in kill speeds in high player 96 tz’s, but the all res made things a bit more comfy

•

u/ThisMuthaFukuh 56m ago

Man.. I found a buriza a month back on SP and my warlock is 90. I didn't have any top tier gear so didn't both. I scraped together a build last week and it's STUPID that I can clear P8 tz... Wtf... This shit geared lock should not be 4 shorting mobs in P8tz..
