EQUIPMENT
For this build if you are playing in standard mode and able to buy some unique equipment this are quite cheap you can find for less than 1 exalted and you will keep this uniques for a long, long time and this way you don't need to worry much about drops.
This build can still be used without any of these uniques since there is a lot of power coming from passive tree.
CHARM
As soon as you get a
Thawing Charm that's the best choice for you. This will prevent you to be frozen and eventually your death.
BODY ARMOR
On body armour your first 10 levels everything will be a good upgrade for your equipment. After that there are some stats you want to prioritize which you can find bellow. If you are playing on standard league you can get a
Coat of Red until level 11 and then a
Gloomform which was the body armour I used until finish Act 3 cruel.
List of stats by prioritization:
- # Evasion Rating
- % Increased Evasion Rating
- Any Resistance that you may need
- Intelligence or Dexterity Attributes
- Spirit
WEAPON
For the weapon I have a easy alternative that you can use from level 1 to end game which is
Widowhail, this bow is amazing and can prevent wasting any time looking for good bows. If you can't get one of these then look for a

For quiver will be more flexible. If you want to go for the easy way you can get a
Asphyxia's Wrath to start your leveling up and swap to a
