If I Change from Ambush and Archery to Thrill Of The Hunt and Steady Aim, my DPS goes down, this is the opposite of what I want, I still don't get what Sheet DPS is as opposed to real DPS, I suck at math, how can I know what my true DPS is?
This might not make sense but I'll try my best[/p]
[p]
So since it takes me forever to gather excess supplies running bounties and rifts and I desperately need new gear, to avoid running into my never ending nightly disappointment of
dealing with Kadala, attempting to re roll/reforge or modify items, only to be
disappointed with the random results, and I need change immediately[/p]
[p]
Is there a particular part of my gear that I should focus on, that would make the most noticeable difference right away, like focus on one item at a time [/p]
[p]
[/p]
Also what is the fastest way I can improve my F N R rings?[/p]
I know my character is crap, but I desperately need help
I recently upgraded my computer and, now that I can tell the difference between internet lag and computer lag, I need to upgrade my Demon Hunter
I can survive on my own in the game, but not for long, still get one shotted, and can't tell if it is just being a DH or just my stats.
I know that I need more CDR for perma vengeance but don't know where I can get it
And I would like more DPS but don't know how to get that either.
In regard to re rolling/Ancient items Caldessan
I don't know if getting all ancient items will really help me or not, I had ancient fiendish grips, but had to choose between CHD or CDR and no one would answer me, so I made a decision, and it still doesn't help
Plus I don't have a huge supply of bounty items or Veiled Crystal, Reusable Parts, Arcane Dust or anything like that, certainly not in the thousands,
so anytime I spend up to an hour (even with a faster computer) going through dungeon crawling/bounties to get my items, when I use the cube or transmogrify/modify items/reroll if they are not good, I basically wasted that time for nothing.
Sorry to rant, getting desperate, any help would be great
1. The reason I have a BOH on is I keep doing Empowered GRifts, in order to get as much points on other gems for the Caldesann cube recipe, I need to have money to do that, so a lot of runs at Corvus and hoping for a puzzle ring drop (curse you RNG)
2. I know that sheet DPS means nothing, and I can survive TX on my own now, but I still don't feel powerful enough, is increasing paragon points, or dex my only way now of increasing DPS, I have heard of putting a RED in my helm and changing to Leoric's items but if I did that I would lose the UE and FnR bonuses.
3. I keep thinking I am doing something wrong but can't put my finger on it, I guess the monotony of consistent farming is getting to me
Unfortunately I believe that 2.3 hates me when it comes to RNG events and finding stuff, I am way to absorbed in the PTR at the moment, because it has given me everything I was told to look for
Basically, I would like more advice in case I am doing something wrong, it just sucks that my particular play style and hours I can put in each night, take far too long to accomplish any other goals/suggestions, I do the best I can, but blod shards, farming and crafting never go as planned
Advice I have been given in the past has been
1) Get a Yangs recurve bow (BIS for UE set) even non ancient will do.
1. Have not been able to acquire a good Yang, my Krider is too awesome
2) Get UE helm and get rid of prides fall
2. Done
3) Change elemental arrow to evasive fire + focus rune
3. Done
4) Cube: Weapon: Calamity/thunderfury. Armor: Cindercoat. Jewlery: Convention of the elements/unity.
4. Done (tied calamity and thunderfury, but like I said I haven't found a Yang, so have that boost instead
5) Build: Vault: change rune to trail of cinders. Passive: Use ambush instead of steady aim
5.Done
6) Bracers: Wraps of clarity (if you feel you need extra toughness)
6.Done
7) Belt: Hunters wrath (helps to generate hatred faster, next patch wont be as good but right now you can say is better than witching hour, witching hour is still very good and awesome for speed farming, definitely not a priority for you)
7. Have not changed yet, still happy with my Witching Hour
8) Get ancient versions of all your gear (Next patch you will be able to upgrade main stat only on ancient gear via the cube).
8. Only have a few pieces, really hard to find and craft (well aware of caldesan's recipe for the cube and totally worth it
these changes have given me a boost to DPS (about 3mil buffed) but I always want more DPS, even though I still can get one shotted, I can give just as well, but I figure the more DPS I have, the more chance I have at staying alive.
I am always looking for ways to improve my character, and the cube did sound good at the time, but now in order to use it I have to endlessly farm bounties in groups (makes it faster right?) to get the ingredients. And having recently heard that you need a minimum of three set items to use the cube, which sucks because I really needed a better focus and restraint, are there any real benefits to me using the cube. I can't tell
P.s any other suggestions about char development would be great.
P.P.S If my character still lists having the gold find gem, it is because I use it in Goblin Vaults, and I know I need a better amulet and more disc, but it is all farming at this stage to get those right? at least that is the impression I am under at the moment. Still looking to up my DPS, crit to a billion and have a real Dead Man's Legacy with a true Multishot bonus on it. And a Yang wouldn't hurt either
Despite endlessly farming the PTR, waiting for the new patch, and being devastated/disappointed that I can't keep anything, (hoping the legendary drop rate will be the same in the new patch as it currently is for the PTR) I keep hearing about billion crit and yang's bow, even though I am still desperately trying to find a better Krider, and keep thinking I am missing out, what am I doing wrong
Other than farming, keeping fingers crossed and constantly looking, (especially planning for upcoming cube recipes which would help me out) what else can I do to my demon hunter to improve it
I keep thinking I am missing out on something, or something is holding me back and I can't work out what it is
Thank you so much for the advice, now the hard part is implementing it
The only reason I have Punishment is my build is very hatred heavy, even with all the RCR i have, I know I need the added disc but if I don't have hatred I can't use this build, put it this way, I was using M6 before and still hate that I am back to doing things for myself again. True I am a demon hunter but I am either waiting for someone to suggest another impossible build (which by the time I finally get it/find it, another awesome one has suggested) or get nerfed in a future patch.
In groups I am just trying to survive/do my part to help and if I don't have hatred/can't shoot then I die quick, and I am always lagging behind because I am constantly picking up stuff, to hopefully re roll the stuff I do have, to hopefully get better stuff (endless pain in the ass)
I don't understand what you mean by 10:1 (whichever you're really lacking, try to keep a 10:1 cd:cc ratio and use points to balance it) I only just found out that you don't have to max out movement speed with paragon points (apparently it doesn't go higher than 25% that's what I heard) and I am using my newly acquired paragon points to hopefully continue to add to CHC,CHD, And Dex in the hope of upping my DPS. What should it be at?
I can assure you I was only using Lightning because I thought it was giving me some form of extra DPS, guess not I'll change it
Other than that I am still sorting through crap in my stash because I have no idea what is good or not, and really only keep items that either a: people tell me or b: if they are all Damage,Toughness and Recovery all positive green percentages, I don't understand it any other way
I am not a noob, it's just all that information flies by my head
Lost soul is an understatement, I wish it wasn't but that's the way it is
I hope to have some success with the new patch, I really need it (needed a reason to start playing again anyway, was getting bored of constantly farming and finding crap, or getting shit from Kadala)
I am not interested in leaderboards, builds confuse me, and I stay away from seasons (again for confusion with leaderboards) all I am interested in is survivability and DPS.
I was pushed onto UE build, even though the boost to DPS I can't really see (would prefer if it was on sheet, I am horrible at math)
I may do solo again but maybe not for long (will be eager to test out new torment levels) but I am wondering if this new patch will/could help me in anyway? In addition could anyone recommend possibly a new bow or crossbow.
I have been looking for a Better Krider for a while, (even though Kadala gave me this current one) and have heard that I should try looking for a new dead mans legacy because of inbuilt multi shot bonus.
I am excited about the new level and the cube (this might finally be the reason I have been looking for to get me to play Diablo again) I remember the old horadric cube, but never used it much and don't know how this new one might help me, with my current DH build
I made the rather difficult decision being autistic and loving my routines to change from M6 to a UE build
Still getting used to it, and having a hard time trying to understand in layman's terms what is going on with my DPS
My sheet DPS in game is 1.6 but with the multiplier's and FnR I don't quite understand all of that/what it really is (online calculators don't do this justice)
If I am doing something wrong or could change anything please let me know
P.S I am looking for a better Dead Man's Legacy (I am aware of the multishot bonus the new one's give) FnR and crossbow, though every crossbow I ever find does not seem to be as good as current one
Please refer only to this link (other websites don't work or show old results)

Is there anything online that exists, that explains in plain, layman's terminology if my current damage/DPS sheet damage
Damage 1978750
Is the right damage/DPS or not
How do I know what my damage/DPS really is

Hi Everyone

Before the maintenance changes it messed up a little bit
My Skills are wrong
It should be Vault, Evasive fire for hatred regen, Preparation for discipline, and companion bat.
And the two mouse clicks are Multishot and Vengeance for hatred regen
Finally the passives are actually
steady aim, awareness, cull the weak and archery

What stats should I be looking for if I decide to change to a UE build?
My M6 DH: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/profile/andersx-2898/hero/6205089 for reference
My FnR are definitely lacking, and I am still trying to get a better HF amulet. but until then I'm gonna stick with a normal amulet with top stats.
Your profile is awesome, it is almost like looking into a mirror
