Notes & Builds

• This set gives you many bonuses for ranged combat, including life steal, a 10% physical damage multiplier and being of of two set bonuses with Untouched Ammo, and the higher of the two at that. These bonuses can benefit any ranged weapon build, though there are other options available for Bows specifically, so cannon and rifle builds naturally gravitate toward this option instead.  Unfortunately, it's missing actual ranged weapon damage until endgame.
