oh wow, i was actually just checking up if there was updated bow/staff videos, and this just dropped, thank you, ive been following your last video guide., even tho i had some questions :)
Totally agree , i was wondering if whelps's first guide video was somehow outdated/changed , trying to find a different guide but whelps to the rescue !
Even as a non staff/wand player myself, I learned a few new things. I had no idea the power of healing touch + natures prayer, wooooosh, that heal was epic.
I just cant find the words to express my gratitude ,i fell inlove with this class ,and your videos guided me to it . Thank you for taking your time and explaining everything. Greetings from Bulgaria
awesome, switching from Staff/Dagger to this. Its been days since im watching you, now i have decided lol. keep up the videos man. Youre doing awesome! Liked,subscribed!
You have one of the best builds and overall skills and style of teaching I’ve seen on T&L. I tried your build and it’s so fun. At the same time, I tried to mess around with it and didn’t like just the 2 damage skills from the long bow so I slapped on the short bow since I started with it and wondering what you think: Still nimble and quick fire. But I slapped on the fire for nature’s skill and it brought me up to 10 super fast. From that I was able to take out the regular fireball and that ground fire spell (sorry I’m a noob). I was able to put on chain lightning and the other lightning spell and all works so well. Many people just use the lightning from the nature’s spell from xbow, but how the fire synergies with the core of your mage build is so fun. Just wanted to share in a way of gratitude. I’ve always enjoyed build crafting but this is the first time I’m giving a bit of details on it. I think I broke Diablo 4 last season too but maybe it was a glitch so not giving myself too much credit. Anyway, if anyone wants the exact build I’d be delighted to share.
Props to you for the great breakdown. I only PVE atm but may have to PVP for my guild at some point. Earned a sub thank you for all the skill and settings explanations. PS I main GS atm lol
great video whelp! i was doing the marker blunder where i had 5 points on extra marker XDXD. i like hellfire rain its looks flashy when doing the opener but for sure ice spears seem like a more comfy rotation
hello since i started to play game (like boost server thing) i followed your guide and now i see your video about combo, nice workout for community. i already know how combo works but this is huge content.
I was searching for this since its a very powerful combo bow/staff, i switched from gs/dagger which is also strong but this one just does a bit more and also at a safe distance. 감사합니다
Even with toublek staff would you advise 15 yards vs 21 yards. Becomes 50 damage vs a bucketload of crit + 2.4% increased crit damage. Also feels like uptime on spells and being stationary is much higher when youre out that far
Ya no point going this build without being as max range. Plus when you do with all that crit from toublek staff, you can put points into wisdom/perc instead of dex
Started a bow/staff class today. Couldn't figure out the rotation and this vid helped so much. Thank you. Can I drop Zephyrs Nock and run Healing Touch instead? Feel like a glass cannon at times.
Thank you for the well explained guides! They have been so helpful. I am still a bit stuck on your smaller scale pvp builds. Do you intend to make a small guide with explaining when to use certain skills. I am trying to get into arena
One of the best guides I've seen. Only thing is the easy cast option in the setting doesn't exist or I can find it even though I've looked exactly where the vid says.
Great stuff Whelps. Two questions: 1) at 6:50 when you swap meteor for ice spear, you still have 4 points left - why don't you take take Projectile Speed Increase on Fireball + the increase radius? It only costs 3 points; and 2) In your medium-size PVP loadout, why take Nock instead of Strafe (more damage), or Inferno Wave (AOE)?
1) I was just trying to explain the trait, you can take both yes 2) zephyr is more dmg, you want that 1 hard hitting ability to secure kill rather than multi hit small dmg with no trait so you only cast twice, its also low cd
Thanks for the video. I’m wondering what about doing the most single target damage to peace bosses/ guild bosses? Is it optimal to use the same one here?
Love the videos, i think alot of people are confused from the mobile version of the website. Theres an add tha pops up on the bottom of the screen that covers the tabs. If you x it out however, you can find the tabs everyones missing. This assumes your not using a computer tho. Upvote so people can see.
Hi bro, great video, I've been building my char according to your eva build on the website, but I notice once in 2 days, there are some changes with the equipment, by that time I almost have everything crafted and enchanted, for example the bracers, shadow tunic etc. When do you think the build is finalized? So I build it up afterwards, currently I'm looking at smth between the starting/mid build and the BIS build (talus)
wow. so that tip at 6:05... I had that setting like that the entire time, but for some reason, when I would press my skills it wouldn't charge it all the way, just until the line.
hey whelps! amazing video! when did you start to level up your third weapon? Right now I play Bow Dagger but in one of your videos you said, that you leveled up dagger as a 3rd weapon. I would like to play Staff/Bow/dagger too - just to have the freedom. But when is a good point to start leveling the 3rd weapon? only after the 2 mains are 16/16? what do you think?
Great stuff Whelps, i have a question, how do you hit 32k with your meteor ? I have appeoximately the same build with 50 strength, 70 dexterity and i hit only 20k, why ?
Hey thank you a lot for this video! It helped me a lot, and clreaded a lot of confusions. Although what I'm also interessted in, you've poster a (Machine Gun Staff /LB Combo) about 2 months ago in a Short of yours, how is that skilled?
Hey Whelps! Amazing guide! Quick question though... Can you make an Arena PvP build? I know that flash/blitz/flash isn't usually used with bow/staff in arena. Correct me if i'm wrong though.. I know it's a new mode.
Hi Whelps, been following you since my day 1 of T&L and love your guides. I noticed that the settings you showed is different than what I have. Is this a customised UI layout i need to see in order to view it? I don't have any of the options to "Aim Skills Lock on Target"
have you tried running deadly marker bullseye specialization and then going strafing x1 -> zephyrs knock -> 1 quick skill -> strafing x1 -> zephyr -> strafing -> quick filler -> zephyr? it makes the rotation insanely tight but getting 3x 8 stack zephyrs seems quite good dmg. With natures blessing whirlpool it's even 8x bullseye and 8x gale stacks every zephyr.
hello there ! always using your guides since I started the game ! so thanks a lot and keep up the good work ! I want to ask something about this video, will be appreciate it if u can answer me; in the link you gave us for skills, items and such, in "Passive Skill" part, you are using "Mana Amp" but in video while teaching us, you are using "Earth's Blessing". So I am confused, which one should we use for bossing? Thanks again !
thx for the guide and sorry for asking but, 1 snipe full charged is around 8k for me which is the dps of 2 and half skills, why is not worth since in t1 we have cooldowns all over the place during bosses?
In my testing, I cannot fire another ability before the Fire Ball hits; therefore, there is no need to use Ice Spear Bombardment after Focused Fire Balls; can do Focused Fire Balls directly into Inferno Wave to get stacks up to 10 quicker when replacing Hellfire Rain with Ice Spear Bombardment
When do you talk about pvp and pve, a time stamp would be nice and i check the questlog, the build in there diffirent from the one you show in the video i think
Love the build but can u please add traits in BiS early game on questlog.. i struggle what traits are best and dont wanna waste lucent and fail Would be awesome, love ur guides 😊
In previous videos you said that its better working on a pvp build rater than a pve, so i should farm for the staff/bow T1 PvP Early/mid or the T1 PvP Early game?
Hii, ive been following your guides for a while now and love how detailed and helpful they are. Is it possible to do a Healer pve/pvp build? so far i only see dps
thank you so much for this guide Whelps! My Inner Piece skill recovers mana like 20% , is it because of lvl of the skill? I usually do Nature's blessing into Inner Piece , but it recovers like 20% mana
Hello mister Whelps, ive been using your Talandre skill build for PvE, and found I like it more, is there any reason its worse or better than the one you talk about here, or is it just an alternative, and what is the priority when it comes to Limit Test, and what skill to reset, thank you!
thanks for your efforts.. on questlog we need some trait info and alternative equipment in case we can not farm it.. especially on beginner builds.. i benefited a lot from your rotations in pve.. but pvp is totally another world.. i die to quick before i can react..
Thanks, I follow builds from the site maxroll and i can see some difference. I like the video because you see the result and you complete with explanations. I will try. But not sure to understand your questlog, the builds pve early game : i see almost full epic equipments, not sure we get that in early game ^^;
is bow/staff great for farming? also i wanted to ask about that tier list vid koon talked about gs/daggers never getting pve runs or people don't like them are they really that bad in late game pve?
oh wow, i was actually just checking up if there was updated bow/staff videos, and this just dropped, thank you, ive been following your last video guide., even tho i had some questions :)

same here :)
Me2
Really needed this video, now I can actually contribute to the party
Probably the best video out there explaining the rotation, skill spexcializations and even the name of the spells that change.
Good job buddy!
Even as a non staff/wand player myself, I learned a few new things.
I had no idea the power of healing touch + natures prayer, wooooosh, that heal was epic.
I just cant find the words to express my gratitude ,i fell inlove with this class ,and your videos guided me to it . Thank you for taking your time and explaining everything. Greetings from Bulgaria
This is probably the most well explained guides for staff bow users out there. Thank you 😊
Loving the build, thanks for your work on these videos
Been following your guides and it has been a blast playing Staff/longbow! Thanks!
Thanks !!!
Wants to move from Bow/Dagger to Bow/Staff and that's exactly what I've been looking for.
I’m about to make that switch myself
you read my mind lmao. I'm from bow and dagger as well. Just waiting to lvl up my fodder and swap my skills.
I switched bow dagger for bow staff already ahaha
Dagger is stronger in pvp
A very good and informative video. Saved me a lot of time. Thanks. I learned a lot.
Thanks for all the guides. Love the build. (Even more after I made a melee Alt char, range is just OP)
awesome, switching from Staff/Dagger to this. Its been days since im watching you, now i have decided lol. keep up the videos man. Youre doing awesome! Liked,subscribed!
Me too
All I can say is thank you, looking forward for more content from you.
Love this guide doing so much dps
Thanks. Learned something and enjoyed my coffee.
perfect guide for new BOW/STAFF user
you got a new sub here
Liked it! Thanks for the great explain and for your work!
Thanks for this build is insane bro!

Interesting, how does this compare to the maxroll guide for staff/bow?
nice video bro, thanks for the content
Another amazing video!
Thankyou so much I needed this I love the game

Can you discuss about stats? and items?? thank you

@@Whelps you the boss man. Thank you so much for your content. Keep up the good job and your subscribers will grow for sure. Just subbed today 🙏🙌
Love the video and love the guide. Been enjoying the game myself really much. Wanted to know do you think it is still viable without high focus?
Thank you for the guide, just one question
What rotation do you recommend to use for PVE Open world, like mobbing etc
I would just use the same skills as he shows here for pve boss. Plenty of aoe for mobbing also.
Trying to decide between your fav end or fav Eva build with talus. Any preference?? I feel the end has further range and would hit harder
What items were you using when you made this video? Which of all your builds? :D
Thanks for the video. I’m wondering what about doing the most single target damage to peace bosses/ guild bosses? Is it optimal to use the same one here?

thx mmy friend, still the best for the community
nicely done guide!
Thank you Whelps :) can you do a pvp guide for smal scale pvp? - Conflict boss figth - tipps and arena pvp? bow/staff
Love this thank you! Can I ask by how much is talus staff worth it PvP? I have a max mama one and was thinking using it versus selling it 🤔
Appreciate the info. Do you mind covering PvE AoE skills too?
wow. so that tip at 6:05... I had that setting like that the entire time, but for some reason, when I would press my skills it wouldn't charge it all the way, just until the line.
Thank you so much.

thats just without meteor and focused firebomb which is outdated and less dmg
@Whelps awe what a bummer, that build seemed quite fun I liked the fact that it was shooting fats projectiles.
Love the guide. Can you also showcase aoe farming? I'm only lvl41 trying to finish up but grouping mobs seems so difficult.
Mobs that are ranged don't group. I just pull the melee mobs to the ranged mobs then aoe them all down.
Hey Whelps! Amazing guide! Quick question though... Can you make an Arena PvP build? I know that flash/blitz/flash isn't usually used with bow/staff in arena. Correct me if i'm wrong though.. I know it's a new mode.

do you recommend evasion or endurance

thx for the guide and sorry for asking but, 1 snipe full charged is around 8k for me which is the dps of 2 and half skills, why is not worth since in t1 we have cooldowns all over the place during bosses?
I use snipe, and many builds Ive seen do it too. Mine hits for 13k, its better than all these skills
In my testing, I cannot fire another ability before the Fire Ball hits; therefore, there is no need to use Ice Spear Bombardment after Focused Fire Balls; can do Focused Fire Balls directly into Inferno Wave to get stacks up to 10 quicker when replacing Hellfire Rain with Ice Spear Bombardment
Hell yeah bro!
When do you talk about pvp and pve, a time stamp would be nice
and i check the questlog, the build in there diffirent from the one you show in the video i think
Best guide out there
which passives you recommend for your pve boss build
thank you so much for your work whelps
i wonder wich guardian you are using when you do bossing and everything its not mentionned ?
Stheno
What stats do you recommend running this build ?
2 questions:
Can you give us rotation on purely pve or will the pve boss rotation work?
Also, how can I retain more mana. I run out very fast 😢
I love staff/longbow 😊
Love the build but can u please add traits in BiS early game on questlog.. i struggle what traits are best and dont wanna waste lucent and fail
Would be awesome, love ur guides 😊
In previous videos you said that its better working on a pvp build rater than a pve, so i should farm for the staff/bow T1 PvP Early/mid or the T1 PvP Early game?
@TheWhelps Could you make a guide for the ultimate pvp xbows/dagger build?
Hii, ive been following your guides for a while now and love how detailed and helpful they are.
Is it possible to do a Healer pve/pvp build? so far i only see dps
been playing with your builds ty. did some changing on items tho :D but stats are same, going for evasion i was plannig endurance but nah :D
Hi thanks for the guide very helpful, I would like to ask how do you to get this much quick slots bcz I have only 3 on the EU server
Question, for a bow/staff Is Better evasion or Endurance? If evasion, Better magic/ranged or melee?
thank you so much for this guide Whelps!
My Inner Piece skill recovers mana like 20% , is it because of lvl of the skill? I usually do Nature's blessing into Inner Piece , but it recovers like 20% mana
bro, which one rotation is better? this one or machinegun from your shorts??
you are best, thank you
Hello mister Whelps, ive been using your Talandre skill build for PvE, and found I like it more, is there any reason its worse or better than the one you talk about here, or is it just an alternative, and what is the priority when it comes to Limit Test, and what skill to reset, thank you!
wow really? it must feel really slow and clunky haha anyway if you gonna keep using it you wanna reset snipe with limit test
thanks for your efforts.. on questlog we need some trait info and alternative equipment in case we can not farm it.. especially on beginner builds.. i benefited a lot from your rotations in pve.. but pvp is totally another world.. i die to quick before i can react..
What rotation are you using for open world pve? Like for contracts and stuff.
Thanks, I follow builds from the site maxroll and i can see some difference. I like the video because you see the result and you complete with explanations. I will try. But not sure to understand your questlog, the builds pve early game : i see almost full epic equipments, not sure we get that in early game ^^;
What do you think about decisive sniping ?
bad for boss
@@Whelps thx for answering and helping us
that 32k fireball tho, mine does 12k most rn lol
Appreciate the guide!
Ya I'm not understanding that lol. Why are his so high?
@@chea7z913 he-s playing on KR. It should be obvious. They have T2 gear with better weapons, rune system and so on
I was using maxroll guide but the build feels wanky i will try this instead. Any sort of recommendation which skills are priority to lvl up? thanks
Will you be doing updates to the build as new updates and content drops etc?
is bow/staff great for farming? also i wanted to ask about that tier list vid koon talked about gs/daggers never getting pve runs or people don't like them are they really that bad in late game pve?
You can explain also the Right equip to use ? Or link a page build for equip?
