A new appreciation for Faith

Easiest way to verify new jewel performance.

1. equip

Guillaume's Face with no jewel , do run
vs
2.

Guillaume's Face with jewel

1 jewel difference should be huge, if it still no difference....you may consider put ias or defense jewel, not offensive.

I think you have both setups with bis equipment.
Which one would you personally prefer right now, and why?

Honestly, I'm not truly happy with either right now.

Alright, after way too much theorycrafting, number crunching and playtesting, me thinks that response needs to be revised.
Absolutely happy now,

Windforce is back and better than ever! Finally get to have my cake and eat it, too!
(Took some serious iterating though..and one insanely helpful random dude who was actually able to hook me up with every still missing piece for my live zon in 1 trade to finish getting her re-worked)

Can you share your

Windforce build with Stone?

I currently have a 120ias

Windforce zon that's just about BIS in everyway. I just got a killer protectors Stone with -10 /48ed that I'm thinking of putting in a

Windforce. A little nervous since the Stone is so valuable.

Do you think it's worth it? How did you deal with loosing 15ias on

Windforce? I'm thinking of using Hustle on switch to make up that 15ias, but I'm going to miss having Harmony on switch.

i really don't get why people neglect Mist + Faith on merc. Mist has max attack speed on

Strafe / gmb and 100%

Pierce, without investing dozens of jahs into multiple 15/40 jewels. everything but t5 heralds and

Baal dies instantly.

Valkyrie is immortal and holds everything at bay. and for t5 heralds, just swap bows with merc and

Strafe them down. although i don't notice much difference between Faith and Mist in this case, both a bit slow (and shame that

Valkyrie dps is so low)

But figuring out the build is half the fun! Or..most of the fun even. ^^

I'd say it is absolutely worth it. At least if you enjoy a phys bowzon in general. Properly adjusted for, a stoned WF zon is just brilliant. What that means exactly depends a bit on your play style and preferences though as there is no "1 build fits all" if we're being honest. So things like "

Strafe v. multi v. both", res capped or not, "full dex v. full vit v. middle Ground" and so on and so forth (though personally I never got the appeal of full vit on a zon..unnecessary and counterproductive imo).
