Would be interested in some hints and / or guides around bow druids.
Thx in advance

(assuming speedcalc is correct) yes, maple bow hits capped 8fpa at 163 ias compared to recurve getting 232
but lets be real, not silly. 232 ias is very easy to obtain.

Another viable option for bossing isRanger's Disguise. Although the max res penalty is harsh, both fragmentation shot and Widowmaker are pretty decent single target WDM skills that won't require you to switch your entire setup.Ranger's Disguise
