I have a Royal Grandeur Ring, but isn't well rolled for now, need to reforge to get CHD.
Use this with 2 set pieces of aughild this will increase your dmg against elites by 15% and reduce incomming dmg by 15% and you will get the 7% reduced ranged and melee dmg.
Which is alot, you might loose some sheet dps but can't beat those stats!
Woops just read that you were planning to do this however do not ditch your bracers get rid of that helmet (4 set natalya's aint that great)
Apparently, I have super lousy luck when it comes to finding the type of Legendaries I want. lol. My Royal ring is currently at 5% crit with Dex,Vit and IAS. Oh well, sometimes we can't have both worlds.
I managed to craft the nx piece of Aughild's set. Together with my Royal Grandeur Ring, it's giving me the stats effect. Apparently, I crafted a new set of Aughild's bracer as I'm saving the last helm slot fo Andariel Visage with fire % dmg. Hopefully I really do get one though. Yeah, I agree 4 Set Natalya ain't fanciful at all. Am still wondering if there's anyway I could have made my DH better. :<
Also, to answer the question in your 2nd post, having Elemental Dmg% to skills does not affect your weapon's damage, even if they are of the same element; so yes, in your example, it has "already been increased as [you're] using... "Justice is Served - Entangling Shot (Fire Damage)". Here's a good breakdown:
Do you know what happens with skills that do only "weapon damage" such as Spray Of Teeth? The game tooltip states them as physical, but I have a poison weapon and when I kill with this skill, I see a nice green glow. With the sentries, however, this doesn't apply (I think they removed it to avoid cold weapon abuse).
edit, Ok, tested ^, element bonus do not care about element in weapon, even if the skill uses only "weapon damage", not "weapon damage as X "
One more item is that, I might really have to replace my Quiver since I re-forge a wrong affix. Apparently, any takers on 2 x 1HD Xbow? Or should I stick to 1 Bow + 1 Quiver?
If you have the absolute best gear, 2x 1Hxbows is better, but 1H+quiver would be very close. It all depends on the gear you have access to and which orange bonuses you want to keep. I'd go for the 2x just because of the Bayonnetta style, I have to find a nice second 1Hxbow, though.
Yeah. Problem is not sure what can be considered as absolute best gear. Apparently, we both have the same problem. We gotta find another nicely stat-ed 1Hxbow. Lol. Dam it's hard when the rest of the DPS i see is 2.1-2.3k. Lol. But cheers! Thanks for the feedback! I do agree also that Bayonnetta style looks much more awesome! >:D
If you have that much crit chance, I think you can leave sharpshooter out. Your gear is fine, however, I see that you have a LOT of discipline, and I can't see how you would get Disc starved to need Night Stalker. To tell you the truth, with all this discipline, I would probably remove one of the defensive skills (mine would be smoke screen because I jsut love Vault, but feel free to remove any of it), and go all out for Preparation with Punishment rune. With this, you can keep blowing everything out with your Loaded for Bear. Then I would change Night Stalker for either Grenadier or Steady Aim (for damage) or Awareness for survival. Its your call. I quit trying to get a too high toughness, changed all my gems to dexterity. We will never survive long those pesky poisons, sentries and lightnings. Awareness gives me just that 1sec that I need to get away from them and keep crushing them.
Edit: I still think that Sharpshooter is something you need to, at least, keep a look at. More crit chance is never a bad thing and losing that crit loaded for bear sucks.
Hmmmm, I tried switching around with and without Night Stalker. Apparently I find it quite useful when encountering several packs that allows me to use Vault or Smokescreen in times of need. As quoted by you, using Preparation with Punishment Rune, I would require discipline to convert it into hatred. If Nightstalker is taken off, wouldn't I have a hard time trying to gain my Discipline for any evasive skills like Vault, Smokescreen?
Hmmm I kinda agree that DH is super squishy. We really do never survive long enough with all the skills mobs are casting.
Currently, I'm looking at investing in crafted set items. Do take a look at my updated profile : http://us.battle.net/d3/en/profile/Cubes-6523/hero/2327980
Do take note that I have a Royal Grandeur Ring, just that it isn't well rolled yet.
I'm gearing my DH's with Captain Crimson Belts + Pants for the 3 piece Set effect. (Do let me know what are the possible set craftables or any other items I could use to make my DH much more efficient.
I'm also crafting the Aughild's Shoulder + Bracer to yet again, attain another 3 piece Set effect.
I'm pretty sure I could do with a new Amulet as well since I've got no Fire % in it.
Additionally, I'm not sure if I should get the 2nd Piece Marauder on my helm for the 2 piece Set effect or should I get a pride fall for the passive Resource Reduction.

You dont need archery with 1h xbow because Sharpshooter is a better option for it (since you are losing 1% crit only, but most of the time you will have more crit chance). But since you dont use sharpshooter either....there is something wrong here....
Hmmm. With my current set up. I'm with 61% Crit Chance. I would have wasted a passive slot if I were to include Sharpshooter in it. Usually it gives 100% Crit chance on first hit. And if I use entangling shot onto the mobs, I would've wasted that skill proc. No?
Gasp! You don't use the Archery Passive. There's something to be said about breaking the mold, but I think the numbers usually say that it is significant to any build. Maybe the rules are different for 1h Crossbows? 5% Crit is great, but maybe the utility you get from another choice is a better option for you...

Thanks Artemissed for clarifying the Weapon Elemental Affix! :> Then again, with 61% Crit Chance, I don't think I'll add on another 5% just for that. Could have used other skills for suvivability or increasing my damage (Steady Aim perhaps?)
Anyways, managed to grab a Cinder Coat while rifting just now.
Oh btw, I need info on the Affix Elemental Damage a weapon has. For example, my current Natalya's 1 Hd bow is Cold Damage. If i happen to re-roll to a Fire Damage, does my Fire% Damage increases the damage? OR It has already been increased as I'm using a "Justice is Served - Entangling Shot (Fire Damage)"?
Appreciate if you guys took time to actually get into the current post. Currently I'm running T2 Rifts efficiently, not sure about T3 and T4. Might feel that I'm a lil under powered.
Got my new DML at release of ROS, did a lame re-forge lol. Anyways back to topic, any suggestions on the above profile build? Am looking for more ways to go to improve my current DH.
