Nuker levels the fastest is a fact that everybody knows about. But i want to make a Str character. Therefore, i want to choose the faster leveling build. Which one do you think levels faster?

STR FIRE BOW!
IMO
Because you deal good dmg from far range before they even get to hit you.

STR Fire bow.
Thats my personal opinion.
I just like the play-style, im grinding chakjiworkers at lvl 23, it gives good SP and i didnt use my hp pots for ages lol.

Arrows take sh!tload of space in your inv and glavie does more dmg.
So i'd say glavie ftw :O

I tested both! Result is that I love my bow. Glaive is getting delete button.
But not fun hunting thieves

str builds are all about full blasts of power...the bow wont provide u with that... it just has good range but the arrows are a waste of space rly...
besides, glavie is more focused on its str stats rather than int stats

Lucky tablets DON'T exist. Only stones do.

I may be wrong on this... But i thought Lucky stones/tablets increase the chance of a succesful alchemy? So.. what does that have to do with the amount of arrows in and inventory?

In my opinion, I would go str / fire archer because they do a lot of damage before the mob gets to them. Too bad the arrows take up half of your inventory. :\ (Unless you buy the 10k quiver ;o).

glavie is way better for mobbing and when you get to cave glavie owns all exept maybe for ints

400 large hp pot ( because the mob dont hit you just sometimes )
600-650 large mp pot is enough the archer really dont need a lot of mp
all slot of your "EXPAND inv" arrows
and 200unpill
+monkey

But the time spent running to the next mob, bowers have killed 4 more mobs (overexageration, I know).

Glaive?

you did know that the word glaive is misspelled in SRO right?

other then, if you want to levelup fast then go BOW (grinds much faster then glaive), you could say it's more pvm based rather then pvp where the glaive does a better job.
no need to ghost walk dozens of times to fasten grind time and shorten distances between mobs as a bow user, glaivers have a harder time getting their mobcount.
whatever makes your boat float, item mall ftw if you want to reset bow to glaive
