Hey guys, I'm currently farming a blader but now I've started to wonder if maybe i should go as bower or glavie instead?

You might wanna know that my friend is farming along with me and he's making a bower. We are going to play as a duo later on.

So basiclly, what build do you think is the most fun at 95+?

Thanks!

Despite the lower dmg I'd say a blader, it has some sexy skills and the def on those badboys is just insane.

I always wanted blader, but leveling takes years, when you hit the cap you can forget about dying, lol.

Yeah these are the reasons I want to make a blader.

Well actually that's not etirely true, my first char was a blader so I feel kinda nostalgic about the class, takes me back to the good old days

And the friend who I said is farming along with me and is making a bower, his first char was a bower so yeah hehe. Perhaps many people go back to their first class, like old people usually moves back home to their childhood places?

Lol my first char was some shitty 1:1 hybrid glaive/blade/pach/fire/ice/light/force char...No way I'm going back to that xD

Hahaha ^^ Okey, I understand you. But what was your first serious char? =)

I already am ;] Same char actually

See? I told you

If i could get a lvl 90+ char it would be either a 90% str hybrid blader fire/ice or a pure str blader fire/force

im making a blader. omg they are fun. but they take a shit load of patience.

I really wish they would fix the current aggro system so bladers can act as tankers in a party, would make it all so much easier

But then everyone would make a blade.

nuker is fun in the beginning, but it becomes boring as you reach higher levels. most fun imo is a bower. it's fast leveling with some nice skills

Archer is a bit boring imo, blader is of course the most fun. But i like glaiver the most.

I agree! I've played every kind of build but every time I see an Archer (my first char was an archer) I get that nostalgic feeling and I start missing my archer at Xian. So yeah, I found that the only solution is to just play an Archer, lol.

That's what I'm doing at Azteca atm, and I love it

My first char was a glavier in Eldorado. Everytime I see a glavier.... I get butterflies in the stomach :3

ATM im glaiver but soon to be dual build with blade/glaive/fire. I planned this from the very start of this char. My first char was a blader.

You guys say bladers are immortal? give me a break you can still be 1 hit by prick crit. Also blader can't survive pvp with warriors, unless they spam KD.

Bower has the LEAST amount of variety in their skills... Almost everything looks the same from lvl 1-110... Strong bow are all the same til 98, Anti is still the same, Explosion slightly diff. The only one with real diff is the penetration and multi hit bow attacks. Oh, and birds.


Most sexy skills = Blader
Most power = Glaiver
Most annoying = Bower

Yeah, the skills look the same but it doesn't matter when they're as smexy as they are

No, but seriously, the bows are very nice. 8D blade is still the most beautiful thing in the entire game though.

How do glaives fare at pvp nowadays?

Yeah, blade/glaive's are an insane build, there are a few of them on ares, and holy hell, you dont want to mess with those guys. They have insane hp+insane BR, with the blade and shield on, you wont kill them too easily... The typical attack that will kill just about anything, knock down, get your stabs in, and just as they stand up, YOU GOTTA MARS EM!(hit them with that ghost spear spin) and they're done for...

Force glaiver was said to be the second best build of 110 cap...

I'd say bower, but I've always loved archery.
Glavies are fun to watch em master that pole(lol) but gets boring, its the same 3 skills basically for everything. Soul spear, windless spear, ghost spear.
Bladers are fun to watch but their low damage make them not so fun for things like pvp, unique hunting, etc. (unless you're one of those ppl who likes to tank a lot)
Bowers have range, really high crits(both in damage hit and amount of crits), they're really the only chinese who benefit a euro party in any way.

Any build can pretty much get 1 critted by a prick so it's not really a good argument against just bladers. Also Ice or prot (or both) bladers will do fine against warriors.

What is said to be the number one best build at 110 cap if Force Glaive is the second?

Warrior/Cleric.

I bet my money on a Force Archer before a Glaive but oh well.
