Description

Windforce is an iconic Diablo 2 item and ranks among the best bows for a Bowazon, only rivaled by Faith.

Key details

  • When making a build using Windforce, look for items that can help you reach the Increased Attack Speed breakpoint you need.
  • Items including Laying of Hands and Andariel's Visage are typically paired with Windforce.
  • Prior to patch 1.09, Windforce had +35 to Dexterity, fixed 8% Mana Stolen and no strength bonus.

D2Emu Tips

  • Fortunately, there is very little variation amongst copies of Windforce - the only variable found on the weapon is the 6-8% Mana Stolen per Hit.
  • One tactic for using this weapon is to equip it to the player character, and then hiring a Rogue mercenary and equipping her with a Faith bow, that way both she and the player character benefit from the Fanaticism aura.
  • Prior to LoD runewords, WF was considered the most valuable unique item before Arkaine's Valor.
