what do i have to do to one shot kill bandit archers.

[CodeOfSilence]

Ok right now, i got in my possesion a
som lvl 16+3 bow,
attack rating 5%
and steady 2.

with 118 physical attack. and im str so far.

Today i noticed a guy that was 1 shot killing bandit archers and doing 350-400 damage to them so he was killing them all 1 after another, no sencond shots.

i asked, he said his bow is som+4 but i didnt get the chance to see it. and he was lvl 16 aswell. Now i want to be able to one shot kill bandit archers, so what do i need to do in order to achieve that. is my bow the only thing that needs to be alchemized? or do i really have to add str points on my armor too. so far only 1 piece of my armor has str or int increase.

i thought u had to be all int to be able to do this....no?

[Fullmetal947]

get some int and str, lvl to 18 or so and delvl back

i have an sos +3 bow and i can1-shot archers

i saw a farmer with an som bow and still cant 1-hit -_-

[Shimohime]

well, do u use skills or just imbue? anyways, if it's som 16, u should be able to do it anyways or just add some str gear. gear is important for farmers.

if i do that, i will retain the stats when i delvl?

all yuo'll gain is balance, thats it. no extra mp, hp, attack or anything else

INT is what you need, INT and MP not STR. I assume you are a STR character so STR is pretty irrelevant if the goal is to 1 shot

Liez. You retain 3 stat points that you get to choose. You lose the two you get when you level.

If you want to 1 shot archers as a full str, get ur bow skills to lvl 7 and your fire to lvl 7.

Learn your first bow skill and fire imbue. You will need your fire tree anyways as a pure str. Use the bow skill together with your fire imbue. there you go, 1 shot one archer down. Confirmed, tested by myself with a SoStar (+3) Bow.

Once you got enough SPs, and hit lvl 20 if you want to pick a weapon that is not bow, just do the curse heart quest, it will cost you not much to delvl 1 skill from 1 to 0 and the weapon lvl from 7 to 0.

how come int can do 1 shot kills but str cant? so i need to add more int into my gear then.

Ever noticed that Int levels faster? Maybe because... it does more damage?

[Partyataztec]

I dont need an sos or som or so whatever seal it is to hit one shot. All i need is gears with fully equip;d with ++int. The double arrows and anti devil is enough for me to KS SOS PLAYERS. LOL.!! all you need is speed.

[Partyataztec]

BTW, you can farm with bandits if the bandits archers is full booked with players. you can notice that the bandits spawn nearly as fast as archers. lol. (and the drop is besides you )

[sugadaddy]

just lvl up to 20-25 with zero lvl gap by only lvling up a weapon tree but without skills, then delvl it back down with curst hearts and delvl yourself back to 16

Add a shitload of int and str to ya gear. Especially int. Lvl to lvl 18+. Id suggest lvl 20.
And a pure str need a som +5 bow to 1 shot easy. But if u do what i said above i think it will be possible.

If you are a full str using a sos+3 bow you are never going to 1 hit with imbue only. And thats what you want because using bow skills is just too slow (you ll be ks-ed hard).

I am farming with a sos+7, deleveled from 24 to 16 have 55 extra str and 53 extra int on my gear and i still can't always 1 hit archers.;

well im using lvl 16 sos+3 and lvl 16 som+3. and still cant one hit archers. maybe i should try to plus them more and more. but the som is so hard to get alchemy to work.

What I was trying to say and others have said since, is that you need to totally max out your gear with INT.

You need as much as possible, and it really should get you very close to goal if you get 100% INT on everything.

Spend the gold to do it. You will make back all your money spent when you are finished and you sell your (garments I presume) gear as "a complete farming set".

It is worth it now, if you are strong and can actually do your 100-200K SP while you are there.

It is probably not worth it if you are weak and leave to level up after 20K

hehe Good luck there bro'

[CodeOfSilence]

well im thinking of doing all my farming one time! all the sp that i need, 150k or 200k whatever the number is. reason is, i dont want to worry later on about having enough sp. and i will lvl up fast as hell with 0 gap without having to worry about the sp part. so i will do it all at once.

well i will max out my gear with int but im going str and i havent put any int into my stats, and so far my char stats for physical balance is 96% and for magical balance is 47%. so i will try to get it higher.
