Description

The bow needed to complete M'avina's Battle Hymn set, the caster is a workable, if somewhat anemic weapon for Hell difficulty.

Key details

  • Not ideal for bow builds except those utilizing cold skills a.k.a Frostmaidens, the caster has the unique set bonus of adding 114 to 377 magic dmg to it's attacks upon having two set pieces equipped (counting the bow).
  • In the hands of Frostmaiden builds, this weapon is fantastic when completed with the set, but in the hands of any other build, including physical dmg bowazons, it is subpar, unless facing non-cold immune mobs or physical immunes.
  • It is recommended to not use this bow unless the character has at least two other pieces of the set equipped, to max out the damage bonuses available with using it.
  • The Nova on strike proc happens at the point of impact of where an enemy mob is shot when the effect procs, so it can create some solid AoE effects when hitting a clustered group of monsters.

D2Emu Tips

  • A level 15 Nova deals 92-137 lightning damage.
  • As a bit of trivia, this is the only Amazon-specific weapon that can fail to provide a bonus to skills of the relevant tree, as that attribute is locked behind the 4-piece set bonus.
  • Looks amazing, the aura although pointless looks great and it plays quite amazing for a Bowazon class...
