My archer is a whammy, so I run wraith form alllll the time, but I'm starting to wonder if I might benefit more from a 100% elemental yumi rather than a overcap hml composite on some spawns. Being mounted for a change would be pretty nice, too.
My real question isn't about the champs themselves, though, but the spawn itself. I like to use a hit spell/velocity/hit area magic shortbow, but with yumi having a higher base damage would the hit area have a noticeable increase in damage as well? If so dropping the chain lit special for double shot might be pretty awesome.
I started buying ash runics to reforge overcap hml (I mean 30 ssi, I know the actual overcap ML is redundant) instead of buying oak runics for elemental bows, because on ATL they are the same price. Seems like a solid choice for the whammy, reveling that lovely chain AI, so the benefits of elemental weapons seem unnecessary.
I'm just curious which bows my fellow archers prefer using. Does elemental slayer help boost the hit area dmg enough to noticeably kill off the spawn quicker? Would it be preferable to use elemental and double shot on the lower resist champs themselves?
I suppose it's similar to pros/cons of the bladed staff vs double axe, but with so many sampires being played most players know exactly what to use when for melee. How about the ranged folk?
-edit- if this seems scatter-brained and hard to follow, forgive me lol. I'm trying to post this from the work truck at some rest stop in BFE. Thanks for any input!!
