The Bowazon is an interesting build in D2R - a lot more capable than people give it credit for, with a number of budget options, but does struggle with many of the same things your other physical characters do - such as chance to hit. How does she make up for it? By launching an ungodly number of arrows.

Skill Tree of Multishot Bowazon Build

Bow and Crossbow: If you're going full speed version with the seven frames per attack setup, since you won't be taking advantage of Amplified damage there, and relying on Magic Arrow instead, the main attacks we will be using are straight down the middle of the tree with magic Arrow, we get enough to reduce the cost to a reasonable level or if you're feeling frisky, you can Max it out to boost the conversion percent, in multi shots since we're using it as our main attack we go with enough to get the skill to level 23 with our equipment on, since this caps out at 24 arrows, but continues in Mana cost, just going up, that said if you're playing strafes on instead, you'll actually want to Max this out, especially if they fix strafe since it just boosts the strafe damage, they'd cap the multi-shot cost at 26 Mana, for Guided Arrow, since we're focusing on the physical and it's a backward Synergy for Multi Shot, we go ahead and Max this out which provides us with exceptionally cheap casting costs, decent damage, and an okay single Target skill that always hits well unless it gets blocked, since it can bypass defense but not Shields, and finally we have Strafe, you may notice mine is only level 19, we will probably bump it up to 20 if we're still playing this build whenever we get that next level we're so close to, this is a nice skill to have for a few reasons even with the bug, while we do use multi-shot for most the background footage, we did break this out for its best case uses which is enemies like Golems, where it can track them much sooner than my mediocre old man reflexes can spot them, that and it's a great tool for triggering Amplified damage on act bosses and such since they get hit once every sixth of a second or basically every other arrow, for my setup, we did pack in Max freezing arrow for a safety pick since we're testing this with various gear setups, and it is easily one of our favorite Amazon's secondary damage skills, and if you don't have a way to deal with physical immunes packing this with any number of freezing Arrow budget options can really make a solid support tool.

Passive and Magic: As far as the passive tree, we did one point in everything, and let the plus skills do the rest with Pierce being extremely handy though with our Chase gear you only need it to be up to about 67 percent, we go way past, that Valkyrie is also a good way to distract enemies since she's good enough at 11 to tank a few hits while you finish them off, and while the valkyrie is technically optional, the decoy is something you definitely want to pick up if you plan on running bail at all, since you can cast it behind him, and he'll drop to crepify on it instead of you, letting you keep maximum attack speed for your given build.

Mercenary of Multishot Bowazon Build

2022-11-25 164858

Weapon: Crystal Axe (Pride)

We would go with an act 3 fire mercenary for a good chunk of it, just for the enchant even or go with an Akron Rogue to provide some support fire, quite literally if you're using a fire one, but as soon as you get into Nightmare, you'll want to get that might mercenary to increase your punchiness even more, and this will generally be the mercenary you stick with to the end, eventually, upgrading him in Hell difficulty with pride which while primarily used for concentration, it does have a ton of other useful mods such as freezing to force, shatters, and even blinding targets.
