Prototype B's Notes

pob: https://pastebin.com/fkJyTJKg

Reddit has a post weeks ago showing the interaction of petrified blood + bloodnotch + immutable force (after the post the price of high roll bloodnotch went from 50c to 3div). I was thinking pairing it with rf jugg but didn't have that much time to play another char.

Yesterday a friend told me steelmage was playing this combo with exploding trap, reminded me this combo exists. Did some pob then realized this is optimal.

So I prefer daggers since I though eb+mom is solid and bow doesn't have these talents. But progenesis + bloodnotch is tankier, while doesn't require mom.

And since bow has 70% chance to summon two totems, pair with totem mastery 30% chance to summon two totems. We don't need multi totem anymore and can use empower instead, which brings totem life from 6k to 12k. This is optimal re both offense and defense.

In case someone ask me how to craft the bow: I failed 50+ times so I don't know neither. There must be a clever way to do it.
