Thx @f4ward, you did mention that few times but previously I misunderstood the concept of dual Lifetap usage ;)

Is there a solution to sustain Lifetap at full time ? Because actually, it's work 6 or 7 seconds, and after, Withering Step need cooldown to use it again.

So, life tap give more damage only 60 or 70% of time, right ?

Without any duration mods, just base skill info:
Withering step: 3 sec + 3 sec cooldown
Divergent Lifetap: 4 sec base + 2 sec from quality

With Duration mods we have from the tree:

Withering step: 5 sec + 3 sec cooldown
Divergent Lifetap: 10 sec

In the game it actually feels little different.
It feel that there is a short downtime, but less than 1 second.

So I would say something like ~95% uptime.

If you want true 100%, you can use any skill before WS ends and it will trigger the cooldown earlier... But I don't see a real reason to bother.

Anyone have a decent bow crafting guide for a bow suited to this build? I'ma crafting noob!

There is both a written guide and a link to a video guide in the first post. Did you check those?

Is there a reason so many are using thicket bow base? I snagged a Grove bow for pretty cheap which has a lower dex requirement. Thought maybe short bow would be best for crafting end game bow.

I don't think there any real reason to go with thicket over any other bow type. APS is somewhat important but you could also go with reflex bow instead of grove. 6% move speed for 8 more dex requirement seems nice.

I was masochistic and went with a Maraketh bow for the 10 move speed.

I assume these 3 nodes is worth taking right? This 3 nodes are
8% increased chaos damage
7% increased chaos damage
20% increased area of affect of aura skills
7% increased effect of non curse auras from your skills

I know skill points are premium, still looking for some guidance on if this is worth the 3 points.

I believe its due to the fact that Neversink's filter hides short and grove bows by default and there are very few on trade.

Not worth it.
For 10-15c you can get a jewel with life and dot multi and put it in your cluster and it will give similar damage, but with more life.
