You need to double your life if you want to stay alive in Hell.

Base vita is the worst thing you could possible do to a char.

If you have a lot of small charms with 18+life, you don't need to put any points into vitality. Having more than 1k life in hell is really unnecessary, imho. If you don't have lots of charms with life, you have to spend some more into vita. Keep in mind that with base vita and the right number of charms, you can go up to 1k life, if you use Call to arms in switch. Do you have CtA?

You're gonna get raped with base vita, simple as that. Even if you've got base vita and 40 +20 life scs, theres gonna be someone with actual GOOD vita and somewhere close to 40 +20 life scs,(not that would be necesary to overpower your weak life) that will rock you.

djnat, 1k life is horrible, PvM or PvP.

Eh, just hope you don't take damage and you'll be fine. :P

In PvP you will get owned unless you use guided arrow from like 10371856193765991 feet away and make it so they can't hit you.

1K Life is never enough in any hell situation. 1K life in pvp? you will get laughed at with how low your life is... doesnt matter if you dodge like hell. get ANYTHING to throw a zon with 1K life into dodge animation and a 1 to a few hits [depending on the opponent] - the zon is out... gg. 1K life in pvm? do you enjoy running and shooting and avoiding all contact? truthfully I'm not even gonna think of what 1K life works in hell act 5 pvm... you have to be able to take hits... ever seen what happens to a sporting team with no defense?

also... doesnt matter how much damage you do if you cant take hits. i dont care if you are the lamest zon on the face of the earth and you run 24/7 - you are going to get hit every once in a while and 1K life isnt gonna take too many hits... at all.

I understand the advantages of a base vita zon but my god they are pointless considering all the disadvantages.

Yes, I enjoy running and avoiding all contacts, cuz I am a bowazon, and I'm not a melee char: I'm a ranged char.

I never die in hell with my bowazon, and I have about 1350 life with base vitality: if I put some more points into vita, I could easily go up to 2k, but I prefer having high attack rating / damage = more leech, rather than life ... the insane damage + leech + avoiding abilities, if you also have maxed fire / lit resists, are more than enough not to be catched / hit in hell, and to destroy everything without dying. Yes, even with base vitality.

The only ability of a bowazon is not to be hit by enemies. Do you want to subtract this feature to this kind of ranged char?

In pvp it's different, you need more life... but in pvm... no, I really think that 1k life is enough, and 1,5k life is too much.

I've played tons of bowazons in 1.10, almost all with base vita, and they didn't die at all in hell if I were careful.
