also you're failing your xis runewords hard. always mo 5x ed in the weapon BEFORE putting the rune in. at 240 ed it will not even beat a crafted reflex bow. youd have a weapon with 240ed (craft has 260) with 400 dmg (crafts can get 440 dmg combining min and max), except ice breaker lacks serious MO space so it ends up being a strickly worse bow. its absolutely mandatory to mo ed first. this was very clearly mentioned in the guide item section. its important to read the text, not just the punchline name of items.
always do the 5 checks before making ice breaker:
1) 5 good jewels? (2%dex at minimum)
2) luck 5 jewels
3) 50-55ed base bow (luckied)
4) 5x ed MO in bow
put jewels in bow
5) dont put Xis rune in bow, put SUR-XIS
I never know that you can put MO in before putting the rune in. I always put MO after then crafting to see lvl requirement. Will it bring the lvl requirement to 140 ?
Thanks again Wulf
yes it will be lvl 140 (you shouldnt have an ice breaker before that). if you add ed AFTER, it wont work because base ed is already above 200 (capped). but by putting it before, it bypasses the 200cap, and goes up to 330ed total (75mo, 55base,200rw).
and you lose 2k hp. like acry said, you need the ed mos in first and only wear it at lvl 140, otherwise its simply not worth using.
