About pure STR bow skills

I have a pure STR with bow mastery and fire mastery and i was wondering, are there any vital skills in the other element masteries for pure STR bow because i dont want to farm too much because its boring. In other words: Is it enough to just have bow and fire masteries?

Ignore comments like this. It's just comments from those who have nothing better to do. I'm suggesting you have to farm a good while. Not as much as Int characters but quite enough. You will need speed walk from lighting to move faster. Ice for phy defence but you may skip that if you get good 72-77 gear, possibly SoSun *dreams

*. Now Fire is a neccesaty cause of phy increase of dmg. Fire has mag defense buff and your imbue. So there you have it.

Just stfu freedom. You have no idea how the 100 "gap" skills will be.

Besides, i like STR bow and plan to stay that way. The only thing for STR build in light is movement speed IMO. Sure its nice to have more parry but isn't it more important for INT builds? Ice has phy def buff but i have lots of HP and i don't plan to do PvP. Force is more intresting because of self heal, res, harmony and MP passive.

Actually parry is equally important to all characters. It causes your opponent to hit slightly lower damage. It doesn't matter if they are nuking you or using weapon skills. Fire defense buff only protects against magic attacks.

From light tree you should get grass walk and piercing force, then if you have sp get parry and phantom.

As a pure STR ice is the least useful 2 you unless you plan to use the imbue.

If I'm rite your main point of view is to spend less Sp and to spare yourself from boring farming.

In my opinion, develop the Lightning tree as 2nd force. The most important skills are grass-walk, phantom-walk, concentration series and passive. As pure STR must piecing force is not necessary (better if you have - of course, but as you said the most important is evading the long farming), if you go to hybrid must-piercing will be primary from Lightning force.

I guess these 3 skill trees will be enough, you can pass over Cold.

Have fun!
