Ask a Bowman Thread.

My crossbow-witch is going to be lvl 70 soon, and rather than ask what build is better to max first (strafe vs. arrow eruption) I want to get various bowman's opinions on each one so I can get a better idea of what I'll be experiencing with each skill.

Also, I want to get blizzard to lvl 21 ASAP, and was thinking of doing 2 points in the main skill (AE or strafe) and 1 point in blizzard until it's lvl 21. Would any snipers recommend not doing that, getting blizzard to 21 earlier, or sticking with the current build?

I went Strafe first and while it was useful at places like Windraiders and Newties, I fell in love with AE once I got it to level 4.

Blizzard's usefulness is very limited, considering that I have level one Blizzard and only used it as mob control at Windraiders and a lure at Typhons, I don't think an early Blizzard build would be good, unless you want to go to Gobys early. I also recall many high level Sniper saying that level 21 Blizzard is only useful for a longer freeze duration.
