I picked up a magic harbinger with these stats.
Got me thinking, what exactly is the best way to craft the best bow possible. What stats do i need to take to a master craftsman to polish a Godly bow? I know it can be expensive, but what if currency weren't an object? I can't find a video or post to show how to craft the perfect bow.
What stats do i need to produce to polish a perfect bow?
I want to learn how to do this. Thanks for any insight.

if currency is not a problem, you would want to craft it in standard, where you can buy eternal orb and do the save/load crafting, basically, aug, regal, ex until you get 500dps+ .
but then again, if you have no issue with currency, you don't need crafting, just buy the mirrored ones.

On standard you might be able to get some eternal orbs for extreme prices.
Otherwise it's a game of getting 2 perfect mods on the bow and after regal you have to get the 3th perfect roll. After that you can exalt it for new perfect mods or use an orb of scouring to start over again. That's why there are no real godly gears anymore. The chances of getting perfect rolls 4 times in a row is like winning the first price in a lottery. 6 perfect rolls by using exalts is like winning the universe and everything else.
So realisticly nobody is trying anymore.
The only realistic option is the 3 perfect rolls. If you are rich and have patience you can get 3 perfect rolls by using alts for the first 2 and regals until you get the 3th roll.
From what I have heared is that you need around 1500 alts for the desired first 2 perfect rolls (tyranical and one more I cant remember (attack speed or the physical/accuracy combination) and after that you want the other one I mentioned. I think 30 regals and 30*1500 alts are realistic.
But after that your bow will be pretty pricy. Use masters for some extra mods and it will be at least 100 exalts worth.

Great info!
So for the first three rolls, what i am looking for is
1. use orb of alt to get 150+ increased physical damage %
2. then use aug to get high flat phys (30-60+)
3. use regal orb to hopefully get something useful like crit mult crit chance attack speed or elemental flat dmg
4. use exalted and get something useful like i mentioned in #3
Then find master craftsman to fill in blanks?
Does that sound about right? Also, just for discussion sake, this is for breach softcore. Thank you so much for taking the time to reply.

You can't get the flat phys on an aug since flat phys is a prefix and the prefix is already tyrannical. You're hoping for a good T1 suffix like crit chance from the aug.

There is zero reason to use Et, etc. At the moment they are being bought out to control the market in Standard anyways lmao.
The 'steps' you listed are a dream and also not possible + in the wrong order. You got Prefix now Augment can only add Suffix. So your step 2 is impossible. Realistically you Aug for a Suffix like Critical Chance or AS and Regal praying for Hybrid or Flat Phys, or just Regal straight up. Use Elreon 8 to fill in the affixes. That's it. If you get lucky you can get a high pDPS bow. Otherwise if you hit an irrelevant prefix you're looking at a ∼320 pDPS bow after multimod.

I think aug for a good suffix (crit, crit multi, attack speed) then regal and hope you get flat phys or hybrid phys prefix.
It takes a lot of currency or a lot of luck to craft a good bow.

You should not be using eternal orbs. For the price of 8 of them you can buy a duped 600 pds bow.

Be prepared to see something ugly after regal, like t3 flat fire damage and many others (or actually all others, except very few). I saw tyrranical in every possible combination until I got this in essence:

Now I feel much older and I don't smile as often, crafting is tough buisness.
