I'm currently playing a life version of this build without Kaom's Heart, i have 5k life, couldn't pass Uber trio...

i have to be honest with you,

your rings are very bad, even though you have glyph mark you can't even have proper dps with those rings.

+rat's nest is bad idea, this build has enough dps, you just need life, rat's can be good after having all max life rolls from every item;
+maligaro's is a bad idea, this build has enough dps, you just need life,(maligaro is just bad choice for every occasion)
+while you are fighting with bosses, this builds playstyle is very close to melee char's, don't think acro + eva can save you, if you want eva + acro char to play you should invest on puncture mines/traps and that's how you should be doing über atziri. you need kintsugi at least or that new free AA + phase acro armor.
headhunter is really bad choice, use retch if you wanna keep having 5k life char, you need movement speed,
that ammy is awful compared to glyph mark's quality,
5k life + no phase acro is not a good idea, check the 100% less AA reservation + free phase acro armor that i'm talking about if you wanna be greedy about dps,
trust me, you need flask nodes;
your jewels/jewel is really out of league for any bow build,

all in all, let me tell you that,

glyph mark alone can't make a build good. i mean no offense in whole comment of mine, take that as constructive criticism.

i know i hasn't something to do with this build, but is there anyone that can remember his gem-setup for EK ?

Thanks for the comment

I'm at 95% crit right now and if i remove rat's nest and maligaro i drop to 80%, is it still ok ? For the rings i guess i could get ones with wed on it, they're not so bad tho. I'm not playing with Evasion at all, i just took Acrobatics because it's a free 30% dodge, also if i change my chest i would have to rely on flasks only for capping res which is not possible in boss fights for me. Even if i get T1 life on glove and helm i doubt it would make any difference with the stat of life right now, even if by miracle i hit 7k i'd still get obliterated on uber due to the playstyle of Point Blank Barrage, i don't really like playing with traps. I guess there is nothing i can do unless they slightly buff life, maybe at 3.0.0.

Does anyone know what the DPS would be at if I picked Deadeye?

you don't need high crit chance with this build, you fire multiple arrows per click, when you miss a crit it's not the end of the world unless you are using acuity which you don't.

assume you were using LA, there is 5 times difference between a crit and non crit, when you miss that shot, yes it's end of the world, and you gotta dodge the next boss attack since vinktar can't fill your health to max until next attack.

but here,

you attack with multiple arrows to your opoonent, when you crit, out of 7-10 arrows having 4-5 crit is enough. average dps is what matters here.

pathfinder vs deadeye

pathfinder has 10% global ele penetration, which is like 10-18% more damage;(shaper has 40% all resists)
shock immunity/status which makes you way more tankier than deadeye,
really good dps/global damage buffs on flask effect,
dying sun gives same arrow amount as deadeye,
so all in all pathfinder makes it much much better than deadeye in this build,
75/50 block chance just with leg rumi, non leg is Opie op too, 75/75 with rearguard,
better movement speed,

i'll explain more if you haven't satisfied.

deadeye gives better tooltip dps values but in active dps and leech, pathfinder is better;
deadeye requires shock immunity flasks on all the time,
deadeye has less movement speed

This is my gear, i have 7,6k ES, barrage has 7k DPS and LA 3,9k with Hatred and Ice Golem. Dunno what i have messed up but i feel like this numbers of damage are just way too bad for the gear that i have. What's wrong with my items? oO

dude, don't get me wrong after seeing your gem links and tree my mind just blown. let me put all my head pieces together until next morning, i'll write you what i think.

just kidding, i gotta sleep. but first of all, i must say, don't use GMP with reach! : O

So i made it to the end endgame.
Capable of doing all of the maps with no problems at all, only thing that can be slight problem is shaper and t16 bosses. With power charges(5) and flasks that i got barrage tooltip is 120k.
Here's my current gear :
Lacking Dying forth and some better craft on my bow, any tips on how make my current sittuation better appreciated Tree link >http://bit.ly/2inp69Q

use rumi vs bosses when you get desperate to survive.
get 10% pen or at least 16 IAS boots enchantment,
get attack speed gloves, 11-16%

I have done a ton of testing with this build and tree variations that I thought I would post a couple of things:

Attack speed is a great thing - so much so that at higher ends IMO it makes using TS somewhat funner then LA and for bosses if you need it like in Core map, etc. where IMO is shines a little better then LA it can become huge having a ton of attack speed and for Barrage its fantastic yet those that push attack speed already know that - leech is not an issue with a high amount of attack speed & barrage vs bosses.

Crit chance - I was pushing to hit 85% - 90% to run tests yet even at 75% - 80% with charges up you are all going to do fine.

Accuracy - I feel most comfortable with around 2500 - 2600 which is in the 89% chance to hit range. We have so many arrows going off that the chance to hit and crit is magnified anyway. I was playing at 3300 - 91%ish and really do not notice any huge difference between 89% and 91% in general I.E. 3300 vs 2500ish. Sure you can tell a little yet nothing that is going to cause any issues at all even with Barrage.

I have done all content with no issues what so ever except a little bit of trial and error with Guardian of the Chimera until I got the mechanics down on getting to the clouds fast to respawn boss.

Great build. I find using Vaal Pact and some life/mana leech nodes a little more tanky vs full blown out damage and the complete dependence on Vinktars yet that's a personal choice and I also like to work a build into a HC viable type character which this can be with just a few changes in the tree.

Great Build, many variants can be used on the tree as some have done and all content is doable even with an average Harby bow or Reach.

Have fun everyone. I will take this character to 100 for sure as I also work on my old shadow/trap build to somehow make it t-16 viable since the old puncture trap build got washed away and much less usefull with these new guardians, etc.

Have fun
