Experimental Character: Need some info

Post by Ch4otik »

so. little background. in all my days playing i've never really tried to reach the cap. now i do.
however, i want to do it with a character of my own choosing. meaning a "custom" build as far as skills and physical and magical balance go. it will however, be a chinese bower.

and here's where i need info. i have accepted that
i think there was a video comparison some time ago of the critical damage from a str hybrid and a pure str archer. could anyone point me in the direction of either a link to that video or something similar. i just need a concrete way to compare crits, as opposed to general talk.

if such a thing doesn't exist, then i would like to ask for help from higher level players (meaning 90+). would you mind finding two bowers with at the same level with all npc gear (or no gear and just npc weapon) and same level skills and have them do a "crit test" at **mangyangs? the only difference between the archers should be their magical and physical balance. if you could do that and record the video or note the difference in crit damage as well the balances of each character, i will greatly appreciate it.

and yes. i can and will do some comparison with my full str and experimental archers once both are at lvl 33, but i feel 33 is tooo low of a level to make a conclusive judgement.


**i only said mangyangs so maximum damage can be dealt. if time and resources are available, the same test can be done on mobs at or very near the same level as the players**

I played a PURE STR Bow account on Pacific (lv78) and always lost in PvP against Hybrids, they are more powerful at later levels.

The damange difference if i remember correctly was consistantly higher.
Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate, our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.

awesome. well. at this point, i am well aware that the average damage is higher on hybrid bow builds.
what i am looking for now is how much of a difference there is between a pure str critical hit and a hybrid critical hit. it's mainly out of curiosity since i already decided to build a hybrid archer.
