60 Unused Stat Points, 21 Skill Points

Greetings to all!

My most recent Matriarch, Laurana, has an uncommon problem: She has too many stat and skill points saved up! Therefore, I am asking for your collective assistance.

Laurana is a Bowazon, using M'avina's Battle Hymn; Waterwalk; Mara's Kaleidescope; Ravenfrost; and a rare ring with dual leech (8%/6%), +10 to Dexterity, and +80 to AR. Her primary skills are Strafe and Freezing Arrow. Since become a Matriarch, Laurana hasn't seen much action, but she will soon become my Countess runner, and I'd like to set her up to fit that role as well as she can.

Please make some suggestions, and tell me why you I should follow them. Thanks in advance for your help!
 
well as the countess is often CI/FI i advice you to max your strafe as you get more arrows at single targets and a bit more damage.

stats i would put in either dex or life

more str is useless and unless your not playing a vamp build mana is something that is not needed to pump further
 
I'd say put rest of the skill points in strafe and all of the stat points in dex for more physical damage :buddies:

Cheers
 
For the stats points : I would dump them all in Vit.
Reason : You don't really need anything else at this points as you have enough mana to cast and enough str/dex to equip.

For the skills : I would Max Strafe, for more damage.
Reason : More damage.

2nd Option : You could also Max Magic arrow to take care of phys&cold immune monsters.
Reason : You might need a second option.

Edit : Those advice are if you really plan doing ONLY countess runs with your zon.
 
How is your AR? I'd put points into Penetrate until you're comfortable with your % to hit a good benchmark monster in Hell. If it's Countess running you want her to do, then see what her % to hit is for the Countess herself. Also, how is your pierce? If you use razortail, you're probably fine; if you don't use razortail, then it might be good to put some points in there until you feel like you've reached the point of diminishing returns. This isn't such a big deal for Countess running, but can help both strafe and freezing arrow a lot should you want to take her elsewhere.

-FF
 
Strafe doesn't need to be maxed to be effective. Put points into Penetrate until your AR is about 85% plus when using strafe, then add points to strafe.
