Hey guys i want to ask which of these builds would be better at lvl 100:
4 aps gorenox vanity or 5 aps deicides
http://www.pwcalc.com/517f183c18c13b13 - Gorenox Vanity
http://www.pwcalc.com/cc5eaef8ef7a97bf -Deicide
I know that deicide has higher damage but i heard that the heal from gorenox vanity is very useful for an archer and maybe later i'll get 5 aps with gorenox vanities.I dont know tho so i;d like some suggestions plz :)

    The best suggestion is to get Rank 8 and use Gorenox Vanity. That gives you 5 a/s, about the same damage as Deicide, and you get the Revenge Proc.

    I do not suggest aiming for 4 or 5 a/s while wearing the Rank IV chest.

    Well point is that i already have that gear (apart from lunar cape but i'll get it) and today i realised that i have enough time to farm the money for rank 8 so most likely i'll go gorenox vanity and farm a bit more for cape to be 5 aps

    The problem is that if you steal aggro with 4 or 5 a/s while wearing the Rank IV armor, you will die.

    Heal from Gorenox not very important. But Gorenox's damage with ability better vs Deicide. Even with refine. And need less str (you have too many str atm for archer).
    So question only how fast you will get R8 =)

    Im getting rank 8 this sale (so in max 12 days from today) and im pure dex build.Is that really too much str?Without the str added by gorenox it's 139 and they need 135 and i dont really think that restatting 4 points is that important.

    Yes, it's ok if your rings only for fists, not for bow.
    So, with r8 plate you will get 5 aps with Gorenox. Use it =)

    On the other hand, you could mostly avoid this issue by restatting every available attribute point (other than those needed to equip your gear) to vitality. This restat should be cheaper than a frost ring and will reduce your ranged damage (but with a jones blessing I believe your ranged damage should still be higher than that of a full dex archer without the blessing).

    I am uncertain to the relevancy of the Frost ring mentioned in your post.

    Was quick way of expressing magnitude of effort needed to achieve.

    In that case, I would say that the resulting effect of that workaround is fairly drastic when acquiring Rank VIII or even Rank VI is certainly within the realm of reasonable measures.
