anyone have experience with str lightning bow?

Post by AppleJuiceCaboose »

i'm just wondering if the parry decrease/atk speed increase with the lightning imbue is at all something to consider for an archer as apposed to fire...

anyone here tried it and are able to comment? mainly interested for pvp...

The reason that I don't like light/bow is the aggro effect. Bow users should have the mob almost dead by the time they reach you. If you aggro 3 mobs this is near impossible.
Gave in to the force of rationallity. Uninstalled this bot infested game and never looked back.
Now I just play in the OTL and my old guild forum.

i was thinking of using fire as main... but i guess ice probably is the best for bows as a secondary imbue...

oh lightning doesn't increase attack speed? i thought it did... slightly... anyway, it would be cooler if it did. :D

... i guess the answer is that maxing the lightning imbue is pointless with bow since you have long range attacks already, and don't really need to run that fast, and the parry ratio thing doesn't work in pvp because it gets pilled away...

... alright i got it...

Lightning increases parry ratio.

I think u mean the pacheon passive, which increases attack rating.
