Best Bow Combo for PvM?

[:1]So I'm thinking about converting my PvP Zon to a PvM Strafezon. Only question I have is which bow is best for PvM? Some immediately say faith is a must use but wouldn't it be better to slap faith on a Merc and use a different bow yourself? There are a few other bows that seem rather appealing to me.

I want to be able to solo anything in hell without any hassle. Cost isn't really any issue since I already have amazing gear. Planning on putting just enough points into STR and DEX to use my gear and pouring the rest into vit while using resist all small charms to increase long term survivability. I'm just not a fan of the all DEX glass cannon builds.|||Faith is not going to be the best bow for you, you are right there, but it is a good help on the merc.

Windforce is a great bow, you really can't go wrong with it.

I have also used a "Brand" RW bow, it is a little pricey but is really nice.

"Ice" is a great bow also, but probably not ideal for strafe.

And you could always make a BoTD bow, they are very nice as well.|||as someone who's used BoTD bow, i can honestly say it's more bark than bite. it's a waste of resources to any but the most dedicated bow collector (which is why i made and played with one).|||For a strafer, my choice is Windforce. Cant beat it |||yeah, windforce + pride merc massive strafe damage, though if you want faster area clearing a multishot build does that, hence more contest for top dps slot|||Well after some heavy testing I've decided to stick with Brand. Picked a P one up along with a P Faith Crusader for my merc. I have Windforce on switch just in case I feel like using it.

I also decided to go glass cannon again and put just enough points into Strength for my gear. I poured the rest into dex and maxed Strafe Penetrate Valkyrie and Crit Strike

I mostly just run chaos a lot and brand+laying of hands works very well. I absolutely love the bone spear fireworks with strafe.|||Nice choice, I will make a brand again someday, it's an awesome bow.

That gear sounds a little bit too good to be true.|||Oh trust me it cost me a pretty penny to get all the gear for it. I'm very happy with the way it turned out though. I don't care what people say Brand > All other bows.|||Switch the belt for Razortail. And dump that BK ring for a rare LL/dex/str/AR/dam ring instead.|||while ur at it, get perfect LoH

if u like ctc�s try dream or delirium on ur merc

besides that, the bk doesn�t really fit in the equip. get one like krem said, min/dex/leach/life
