1) it seems like there is next to no synergy bonus for immo: I had 1 pt immo and maxed exploding arrow (to keep mana costs low) but immo still had ridiculously low damage. now I don't know if this is because of the LCS or if blizz somehow broke the synergy bonus when implementing the changes. Having not maxed immo yet (1-pt immo, max exploding so far) all I can say is the damage pretty much sucks (at least as far as the LCS is concerned)
2) if the synergy bonuses are somehow broken (no idea really) how does exploding compares to immo? I know immolation arrow has a cooldown on castings (like frozen orb/blizzard) but how bad would it be?
3) I am assuming I'll need a backup skill of some sort (as relying on a fire skill alone seems foolish). Freezing arrow looks good, but if I go for it then I will have to choose either immo or exploding (no points enough for both fully synergized). Can anyone share their experiences after 1.13?|||First of all, I think your post should be moved to amazon forum.
Ive made an exploding arrow amazon and she is quite fun; in fact I like her much more than my ice amazon. I have only 1 hard point into immolation arrow and I believe that if it was maxed, it would have much more damage than exploding BUT it is an irritating form of attack, since it is timer based, thus you have to wait around 1 second between each shot.
Perhaps some form of a combination between explosive arrow on left attack and immo on right could be good; but I never tried it.
Explosive arrow seems to be quite good actually, much better than Ive expected and quite enjoyable to play (I use phoenix bow, forti, andy, +2 20 gloves (passives; although +2 bow adds around 100 fire dmg); 4 skillers, few poison/cold dmg charms and merc with infinity). I think phoenix bow really helps, with the redemption aura.|||thanks fledgeling. I thought I had posted this on amazon forums? I don't remember, it was late when I did the original post :P well at least now it's in the correct forum.
Having tried an Ice arrow zon before, I like the idea of the fire one if for anything, just for the novelty. I was wondering if someone actually played a max immolation arrow one, but it seems no one is... daring enough. As soon as I get my zon going I'll post some more here.|||I'm building a max immo zon.
But I'm also untwinked, playing HC so I won't have access to the godliness of phoenix or infinity, which might be necessary.
I don't know if I'm gonna make it a hybrid between FA / IA or if I will go full on fire, maxing IA, EA and fire Arrow.
I think maxed with maxed synergies IA does about twice as much as EA, which is kind of meh considering the relative speed of the shots (you can get roughly 3 explodings in the time of one immo at 9 frames per attack.) But. the real use of it is on stationary / slowed mobs. If you can stack 4 immo pools, you're talking an extra 1k fire per second.
I'm kind of up in the air on it I suppose. If I can get to hell I might try the full firezon, with a harmony and an insight/holy freeze merc. Bow will probably be a harmony in a +3 bowa skills ama bow. There's some nice budget options for pure fire, tbh. Lava Gout gloves are pretty good (rivaling the damage of a +2 bow skills glove for explosive arrow).|||The fire on immo stacks like meteor

Erm... the fire per second damage is terrible synergized.
