It's your char, your choice. Pure str is what a lot of people go for. Some go for 2:1 like I am. Some try 70:70

Bows do not suck. Most people who are bows do, because they do not know how to play them. Standing in one spot and attacking is bad, an archer who knows how to play is deadly.

Ive always heard that bow should be pure str, because they depend on their crits, and pure str hits hardest crits. Ive never seen a really good int or hybrid bow, with the exception of SirShadowCat (who i think has full sos and sos+7 bow

).

You know, INT based bows will do very well in PvE. But In PvP, INT bows die very fast. Pros: very good leveling speed; Cons: dies quickly in PvP

Pure STR bows do pretty well PvE and can do decent PvP, too.
Pros: insane crits; Cons: not many....

Hybrid bows: good PvE, but PvP'ing will be hard, without godly gear.
Pros: All-round good damage, decent crits,
Cons: Also dies fast in PvP.

If you need the guides, use the magic [search] button.
