PvE ONLY bow build - need advice

spurlock · Post by **spurlock** » Fri Mar 16, 2007 5:02 pm

Does anybody have advice about what masteries to get (Fire/Cold/Light) for pure PvE bow build? I know bow is not the best for PvE but i find it the most fun. Fire does great damage but would cold be better for pure PvE?

More importantly, i'm having trouble figuring out which skills to get and max and which skills to skip altogether. This is for Pancheon and the elemental skills.

Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

appearantly hes doing amazing.

full itl bow

fire light

just use bow skillz to kill enemies, nukes if u feel like it

its * in my opion* the quickest lvl'ing up build * if u know how to play it right*

though it dies easily, it killz dam quick with bow skillz and imbue

and by "best" for pve i assume it means quickest lol

Full int bow and spear are the fastest leveling.......Well that is if you can stay alive.

You could just do pacheon and lightning tree, you would be quite powerful. But lightning imbue will probably aggro to many mobs on you and you will die. Ice imbue will keep you alive longer.

If your set on going hybrid you will live alot longer, but not kill quite as fast.

You find killing the same mob thousands of times fun? But seriously, any build will do well in PvE. You could go pure str and not get any skills and still kill any mob.

Cold/Fire/Light. Cold for the imbue, Fire for the phy damage buffs, Lightning for the movement speed. Strong bow+combo arrow+antidevil = dead mob

He is currently a int hybrid.
If he isnt going str, or str hybrid than fire is the least useful tree.

Lightning for mag damage buff, and Ice for defense and imbue.
