That's an interesting point about the Hook and Tackle - so far I only found it useful against wraith during wave 5.

I found it pretty devastating even against stronger enemies, haven't tried perilous yet though. Because of the quick damage, demons can't put up their guards or shields. Works wonders against the annoying despair demons.

I built the hunter this way to try it out. Oh My Good Lord it is amazingly fun. "Hook Shot" (sorry big LoZ Fan.) Is so good it does damage, it stuns and it makes Leaping Shot/or Evade Shadow Clone a guaranteed hit coupled with Full Draw Exploit I have been on top of end game summary board everytime. Not to mention that you can kite boss on 5/5 around and murder em'. +1 to OP.

Glad you both enjoy it. Hook and tackle is a really underused power. Dont think ive ever seen it used in pugs. Its really strong though. Definitely worth at least a try.

[JaceNowater]

Penguin keep being awesome!

[J. Peterman]

I'm going to have to try this. Was unsure what to do with him.

Finally got to level 12 and now have the upgraded hookshot. Loving the combo with leaping shot, but it's taking some getting used to in terms of staying alive. The best bow I've got is a levl 23 common, so I'm trying to make that work.

 

Oh, I decided to stick with Explosive shot. CC is too important to me.

This is a build that I've been using and having a lot of fun with. Though after using full draw, and explosive shot, I prefer explosive shot for the CC since you're up close and personal with this build. 

Out of curiosity, has anyone given this build a try with throwing blades instead of full draw/explosive shot? Would make it more of a ninja and I'm curious to see what they think.

I Did, just replace evade with throwing knives (and upgrade). I prefer that way, more damage, Throwing knives stagger most of ennemie and usable when hosting / off hosting. Evade is great but if I am not hosting, even with the big connection I got, this skill is useless.

Hey penguin try spike trap instead of full draw/explosive.

Just did a full 1-20 with that and the trap upgrade.
Even with a lowly 23 blue bow spike is doing 1800 crits aoe + knockdown (I have a lot of crit )

Good times.

Will try this when I promote. Having the issue of at least half my characters being broken because when I first used them I didn't know what I was doing and messed the builds up. Keep your posts/guides coming. Didn't even know you'd done this one. Penguin, Is there not a thread that we can sticky and get all your guides in together? Just a thought.

[gay_wardens]

way too content with the single trap ability, poison blades and the cloud of poison.

 

not using Fallback Plan is laughable at best. provides all the utility you need

[nothatasian]

I have to agree with others that say take stealth, it is valuable not only as an offensive ability but also as a way to completely drop threat.

I personally run

Explosive Shot
Stealth
Full Draw
Leaping Shot

with Passives

I usually start with stealth and either Full Draw if there is a boss type enemy I need to take down(it is especially useful against the cursed chest bosses) or I use stealth and explosive shot if there is a group of enemies close together. The Damage bonus plus the auto crit on explosive shot can almost one hit a bunch of enemies at once.

[nothatasian]

If you are ever lucky enough to get one of the bows with explosion on kill. That bow with the hunters auto crit and FULL DRAW is amazing. EXPLOSIVE ARROW on a much bigger scale and dmg. I've done 3000 to 5000 dmg plus 75% extra dmg to surrounding enemies. Each enemy who dies also does extra explosion dmg. Most mob don't survive. The explosion skill makes up for a slighlty lower dps. Much better at clearing rooms too.

Pretty much, if not all of penguin's builds are in the pinned DAMP resource library.

Will try it out. I am on the fence with full draw/explosive shot atm but this might be a good alternative.

Ahh ok. I hate that thread. I'm using the mobile version of the site on my S5 and every time I go in to that thread it starts me half way through it with no page number and unable to go to start of thread.

Ill be making a thread will all my builds in it for the sole purpose of putting said thread in my sig when ive finished with the keeper.

[Quagathyre]

I like to run Hook and Tackle, Leaping Shot, Explosive Shot and Fallback Plan. Get in, pound 'em real hard, take a pounding, then get on that plan. Plus 2 extra points to be spent elsewhere by sticking with the starting abilities.

How much does the trap upgrade do, because Leaping + pincushion is quite a big boost in damage.

It's nice.  Hook, Spike, Leap makes for a fun combo.  However, after that you're stuck with only Hook & Evade for a while.  Sometimes I stagger the use, so Hook-> Spike-> Evade on top of spiked enemies, then Hook-> Leaping Shot.

[Pork]

Bit late to the party here, but with the buffs to traps, the hook/spike/leaping shot combo is amazing. Probably not my first choice for perilous runs, but insanely fun nonetheless. Griffon bow is kind of a must though, it shines a lot more than PBTM or even the dragon bow up close (for obvious reasons)

I ran into a random using this build and they were awful. They brought shame to the op.

For my hunter, I love cloak and leaping shot with the appropriate passives. Been playing with the spike trap with it lately and liking it. Cloak, drop a trap, leaping shot. Rinse, repeat.

[Courtnehh]

I don't know if you're using the leaping shot ring or not but just to warn you the additional 30% damage doesn't work on it Just warning people.

What? Is this a bug? I had no idea about this.

Wow, still bugged? For some reason I had thought that had been fixed in the past.

 

Poop. This is good to know so I can take a useless ring off and replace it with something else.
