Shaikal's Mindveil Harpoon is strong for this build as it provides Strength and Hit Chance for the build. The only downside is that its weapon effect does not stack with Javelin Inferno.
You can alternatively equip Queen Bellandir's Serrated Spike to empower your Death from Above. You will, however, need to reassign some stat points to meet the important breakpoints.

The advent of runes made it possible to achieve multiple stat breakpoints in builds that were unattainable prior to their release.
Get Critical Hit Chance, Heavy Attack Chance, and Hit Chance to increase your overall damage output. Evasion and Max Health are next for survivability, and Weaken Chance to make sure your Ignite applies to the enemy.
For the Rune Synergies, get Strength and Dexterity to reach the needed stat breakpoints. Partner these with Attack Speed, Cooldown Speed, and Movement Speed where possible.

| Crossbow | ・Chain Fire (8 Pts) ・Move (5 Pts) ・Regen (6 Pt) |
|---|---|
| Spear | ・Face Off (9 Pts) ・Destroy (9 Pts) ・Charge (1 Pt) |
The Mastery Point assignment for Crossbow is designed to maximize Mana Regen and Mana Cost Efficiency, as this build can burn through Mana quickly. The downside is that this does sacrifice some damage output.
For Spear, prioritize Face Off to get Thorough Preparations and Ultimate Power, which grants cooldown speed and attack speed. Follow this with the Destroy tree for Skillful Path and Will of Annihilations.
