It's nice that you got a legendary from inferno warden, but for the love of god, please do something with your recording method. The UI moving like it was in that video is gonna give someone a seizure.
Wouldn't it be better to shorten crossbow with the term tbow? I keep seeing xbow and I keep thinking someone is talking about xbox. I hate how lazy the gaming community is with typing shit out. Like it's really that much faster anyway.
I love two handed weapons and wish there were better ones for my class.
Using T instead of X to represent "cross" is just as lazy either way.
On topic, In inferno I have to agree that the 2h would be better because you're moving more often and you can hit harder while moving. With the dual 1h you would have to stand still to get the same kind of damage output, which is obviously much more risky in terms of survivability.
How do you guys deal with invulnerable/teleporter on inferno?
Occasionally I can blow SS spam, prep, SS spam and get them down. Trying to kite them usually is futile unless they are slow moving mobs. I know the devs have said that invulnerable isn't where they want it to be per se, but, I was just looking for some tips to deal with them in the meantime.
Mainly, 13k dps is really way to low. Champion/elite packs have hundreds of thousands of hp, if not millions in some cases. On my demon hunter I didn't go into Inferno until I had around 30k-ish dps.
Also try to get more hp and resists, I started out with about 29-30k hp and wasn't doing too bad against most groups of champions/elites.
You will of course be owned by the randomness of 4 affix champ/elite packs from time to time.
Does anyone know if this is just a bug or was this an intended design of crossbows to have witch doctor skills on them?
Every rare crossbow I've gotten farming late hell for possible upgrades has had a witch doctor ability on it... Kinda frustrating, but I guess that's RNG for ya.
Mainly I use Hungering arrow with devouring rune. It's not uncommon that I'll see it crit for well over 20k with a 400 dps bow. Granted if it doesn't pierce then the dmg is gonna be a bit lower than other options, and you can't slow without spending disc, but I usually run with a barbarian so I don't need to worry about slows too often.
As far as the grenades I have to agree with the sentiment that they are just too random do be really reliable form of damage imo.
Bola shot seems like it could be really good, but I haven't really tried it out much.
If I'm running solo I usually switch to entangling with the 2 extra slowed targets, it seems to make things a lot easier for me.
This is usually what I run with solo: http://us.battle.net...QXTV!YeT!YbaZYc
Edit: The ferrets are basically only in there when I'm trying to buildup some gold. Otherwise I've got caltrops with 80% slow rune.
In a group I'll go more dps heavy and less survival abilities sometimes taking out prep for impale. Also sometimes I change out multi-shot for Elemental arrow with ball lightning. Its beast dps if you have someone holding the mobs off of you.
I don't really care for vault too much, there always seems to be a delay in the time I hit my button and the time I actually vault away. I've actually died on the butcher on hell because I vaulted off of the tile that was starting to light up and still took the fire damage.
I've gotta agree with kisho, once all the tweaking of skills, itemization, ah, etc are worked out then I would be surprised to see maintenance more than once a month.

Yeah I've not gotten tentacles yet, got about 25% of a level to get to 59. Once I get 59 I'm sure it'll be my go to spender.
