Finally done upgrading gf to near max and now looking to up weapon for more dps.

Current is a 1220 Blue. Should I look for a dex bow or a crit or socket bow for the upgrade? Spells are cookie cutter and so dunno if crit dmg will be that effective. Looking to spend maybe around 15-20 mil max.
 
why would you spend 15-20m to upgrade from a 1.2k dps crossbow?

as for stats, if you use sharpshooter socket and/or crit dmg, otherwise probably dex if you crit chance is low
 
my 900 dps rare bow with crit damage, socket and 199 dex does more dmg than a 1200 dps blue bow.

You should be killing Sarkoth very quickly, unless like my last set up, you have a high attack speed bow and low crit. I now have a 945 damage xbow, 1.1 attack speed, +70 crit gem, 30k damage in total, and Sarkoth dies in 2 shots, sometimes 3 (need to improve!)

So, Xbow with low attack speed + a socket is needed, +crit
The more +crit, the faster that biatch will die.

bad upgrade? so far im killing sarkoth in mainly 2, sometimes 3. trying to go for a 1shot kill, overkill for the the money it'll cost?

from observing a run, I get to around 40% from SS when it gets right to Sarkoth for the first shot.

using AGB. haven't tried CG past 1.4. sitting at 44k with full 100% chance from SS, 21.5k without. i'd say 3/4 2 shots, 1/4 3 shots but not 100% on that stat lol.

Currently I got a 950 dps crossbow that is far superior to a 1200 dps bow because of AS and Crit damage. I would honestly say that Crossbow is the best for Sarkoth since you want to 1 or 2 shot him, and you will do that with good enough gear.

too lazy to stop bot and check AH but how much did yours cost? last i remember it was ~4 mil for the 1200 blue. thinking about it now, I 2 shot him anyway the majority of the time. dunno if worth it to spend more than 10 mil just to get him to 1 shot/1 second faster run time.
