Bright, nine point nine outta ten, simply because I can't be tossing around 10's, so I am docking that one point for using vengeance, not because it is bad, but because of personal preference hehe.

Solid gear, still good opportunities to upgrade your stuff without going broke. Skill choices are bit strange. Im not biggest fan of sentry and bola shot. Im also missing Custom Engineering passive, which is very good for build sporting sentry and spike traps.

So here is my beauty, finally in a shape I'm not ashamed of. I'm quite proud that I wear 5 self-found drops--head, chest, legs, right ring ( the one without MF) and shoes.

Very nice DH, I like that I see something else than a Manticore ^^  

There might be room for improvement on the shoulders, sacrificing some life but I'm guessing you don't really feel the need for it with that dps

Can't post links yet so here's my hero in text form:  Niddro-2690/hero/1973542  (EU server).
that Manticore dropped for me before 1.0.5, I'm very proud

[Nevi]

You have what seems to me like a well-balanced set of gear for a limited budget. My only problems are with the chest, which, although it gives a very nice 12% movement speed, has no sockets, and the helm, which also has no socket (I would not wear a helm without socket and XP gem until paragon 100 myself). I understand why you wear them though.

8/10

I just had to pop in here and see what things are like.

Nevi, I'm referencing http://d3up.com/b/91029 so it helps me gauge things. I find it absolutely hilarious that your EHP == DPS. My assumption here is that you have a legacy nat's on? Or at least can infinite gloom with night stalker?

You've itemized the optimal dex way I can see except your bracers could be better rare -0.5 and I'd have opted for not full nats but blackthorns legs/etc for some defense -0.5
9/10

Your upgrades are definitely only "better rolls" and hence super pricey. I'm definitely impressed at itemization for only being P23, but I do see another 2 chars near there so you may be rich anyway I would prioritize a better manticore and getting some vit rolls on things like vile ward.

What MP do you typically do? How often do you die?

Here's mine: http://us.battle.net...58/hero/5050748 and d3up for details: http://d3up.com/b/9534
Do note this is my highest character and I'm on HC and very poor (last time I checked I'm actually top 100 DH on HC for "progression" since there hasn't even been a 100 to kill D yet and I'm almost there haha). I also just swapped out the amulet for a nice 8k more DPS with steady aim activated (if you're new to d3up you can click on the spells at the top to activate them if they give a bonus).

[Nevi]

Thanks for the tips. You run a very nice defensive build, with gear to match. Thinking of starting to use those turrets myself. 9/10

On the subject of my EHP: I know it's far too low, it's what's currently holding me back the most. I farm MP3-4 usually, I can do 5, but it's risky. A few deaths and you lose so much time that you would have been better off farming a lower MP setting. Note that d3up.com displays my EHP and DPS incorrectly, because it does not take into account my Hellfire Ring.

4-piece Natalya is a big sacrifice in both EHP and DPS, but I think it will be worth it in the long run. With it, I can keep up Shadow Power almost indefinitely. With 200k DPS, that grants a lot of constant health income. Saves my ass most of the time even though my defenses are clearly too low atm. Practically all of my deaths occur on DMG reflect packs when I fail to notice Shadow Power has dropped off.

For the next poster, please review duckwilliamson's profile, not mine.

It's always impressive with people playing HC as i myself, would never dare
To get back to the thing in hand...
You seem to have quite low DPS, wich i guess is absolutely normal as you play much more defensively...however i am a bit suprised why you then dont use skills like spike traps to slow enemies?
Overall you have a very very impressive EHP being a DH so i'm gonna rate you at a 7/10.

My DH, a bit updated...note that i don't use a socketed helm for the very simple reason that i'm more interested in good, gold rewarding drops, than paragon leveling at the moment, trying to save up money for a nice Manti among some other things.

@Raz0r_boy: you probably 1 hit yourself on reflects damage, don't you. My health doesn't even budge from them I definitely don't see the issues that everyone else complains about, so hooray for defense (don't get me wrong, glass cannon should be viable so I hope they make RD a castable). Until I find my manticore, my DPS shouldn't really break 60k. As for traps: when I have to face tank, the sentry shield works great. If I need to kite lots (solo vs co-op) I use cold array instead of lightning as I hate traps.

Perhaps if i had more luck i would of found something that would sell for more then 500k.

If you've been on a budget, pretty nice job.  I'd say 7/10.  2 things right off the bat.  Get Vengeance instead of Night stalker.  You don't have the crit to make NS work well, and vengeance is awesome for the extra hatred.

More CD.  I'm at the same kind of place and trying to get more.  Ammy looks like a great place, since it can have 65.  Plus, you should be fine without all the MF there.

Last, it shouldn't be too hard to find a chest upgrade.  That one is pretty middle of the road.

All but vile ward was found and trying to gather up some gold for an upgrade. Not sure what will give me my largest bang right now. I got options. Current build is for A2 key farming.

hmm decent dh, but I assume, too low dmg now there is monsterpower. but there's room for upgrades. maybe try to get a 2nd part of the natalyas. I like that you play bow-A-zon. I give you a 5 out of 10.

Actually i dont have any trouble with reflects...2.60% lifesteal on the manti and gloom makes it a walk in the park...and they die very quick while at it =)

Yah, dmg is a little low right now, but I JUST broke 100k, so now I'm optimizing.  Loving the bow though.  Was running Multishot with the Disci rune before, and basically had perma-gloom (do you find Fire at Will better?).  As for Nats, i keep trying but every option so far (under 100mil) has been a ddowngrade, even with the 2pc.  I'm thinking boots has to be the way to go.  Facerolling MP3, but I'd like to be farming MP5.

I only get a 5?  /sadface

You could upgrade the ammy on a pretty tight budget i think.  And you might be able to bump your health a lot by trading some vit for life%.
