"A woman can change the world with a single, well-placed arrow."

The Deadeye is an offense-oriented class that focuses on projectile damage and area of effect. This class is obviously suited for bow attacks but most of its modifiers apply to any sort of projectile, meaning most projectile attacks (such as those fired from Wands) and some spell projectiles also benefit from them.

This buld uses Tornado Shot as the main skill. Tornado Shot is a ranged attack skill, firing a piercing shot that fires projectiles in all directions when it reaches a targeted location.

 

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • + Extremely fast clearer, possibly fastest, especially at higher tiers where weaker build like autobomber can no longer clear effectively.
  • + Excluding Uber Elder, it can clear everything with ease, Uber Elder is doable depending on gear, although build is not made for that.
  • + Highly survivable for a bow build.

Cons

  • - Like most bow builds it is extremely expensive, even at a starter level, this build has an even higher gear cap than other bow builds.

Gear

Overview

Weapon

Endgame option, there are a lot of variation u can get on a shaper bow, but the one above is close to the best mods. Only better if it has higher added flat damage and a higher attack speed base (thicket, highborn or imperial). You will really feel the damage gain on things like T16 Null Portals and bosses.

Quiver

Best overall option, increases single target, pack clear and survivability. Up to personal preference if you want this or Rigwald's Quills.

Helmets

All in One option. Extremely expensive but 2 more abyss jewel means it has even more damage than Devoto's while still having the life of Starjonka's. Helps a lot with resistances when using MF gear. ENCHANT IS REQUIRED.

Armours

Super high movement speed means super high clear speed. Prioritize resistances over evasion and life.

Gloves

Clear speed option. "Curse Enemies with Elemental Weakness on Hit" is only needed if you have a shaper bow with power charge on crit. Tombfist is an extremely strong pair of gloves, since it gives two abyss jewel slots and on top of that life and attack speed.

Belts

Endgame clear speed option

Boots

Defensive option. Since we use so many uniques, maxing out resist is quite hard, boots is where we can get most of it. Attack speed enchant is recommended.

Rings

The most important stats are Life and Mana gain on hit, which is wildly powerful for Tornado Shot on par with pre-nerf Vaal Pact, this allows us to not get claw leech nodes or Vaal Pact. So more survivability if you use Blood Rage. Also has a nice amount of quantity and resistances. Reduced curse effect is very nice if you are using the cheapest build option which doesn't have a curse immune flask.

Amulet

MF and endgame option. Besides quantity, look for elemental damage, elemental penetration, crit multi, life and charge gain is also nice.

 

Map mods

Elemental/Physical Reflect: Save until mirror sextant, reroll if you don't use sextants. Phys reflect gets out of hand and can kill you if you get too many Headhunter buffs.
