Isolating Attack Speed

After Annul

After hitting Tier 1 increased Attack Speed, use a Regal Orb then attempt to isolate the increased Attack Speed with Orbs of Annulment.

This might take multiple attempts. If you Annul the increased Attack Speed you'll have to go back to Step 2. Once your bow looks like the one on the left, move on to the next step.

Benchcraft Can have 3 Crafted Modifiers then Cannot Roll Attack Mods then use an Exalted Orb to slam +1 to Level of Socketed Gems.

Follow up with a Hunter's Exalted Orb to add #% increased Chaos Damage over Time. Since the Tiers are weighted you will most likely slam Tier 4 or 3.

If you aren't satisfied with the Tier of increased Chaos Damage over Time you slammed, use a Wild Bristle Matron in the Menagerie to add Suffixes Cannot be Changed then use an Orb of Scouring to remove your Prefixes. Afterward, use 2 Exalted Orb to try again. You can repeat this until finished. Once you are done, move to the next step.
