Ok so right now I have a bich/cold/light nuker, and a pure force nuker.
As you can see I like nukers and all int builds.

So now I want to know which is the best build FOR ME, for a bow?
I want to deal high damage, decent survivability, and also either use armor or garment.
Should I go to an all int bow, which would be my favorite? Or should i use another build?

Please and thanks

Well, bow only got the KB and stun (barely) to keep enemies from hurting you wich will make you more vurnerable than an s/s or spear but the DMG will be sweet and most mobs wont hit you cuz of the range.

And you will always have snow shield.

6 and 5 hit combos will be a bitch with cold imbue.

Since you already have 2 full INTs you probably already know how to use one so it wondt be a problem.

ok thank you for the advice

How are you going to grind? If you go str it will be alot slower to grind so if you solo alot it might be a bit tedious if you're used to int grind speed.

I wouldn't go pure int with a bow, hybrid int at most although I personally think bow is a str build. Masteries are also a matter of preference, if you want to use garm I guess light/ice is something to think about.

yes actually i do solo
ALOT
about 98% of the time im solo

And why not pure int?
I was thinking pure int with pach/cold/light would be good with armor.

You lack hp as a pure int, with s/s you get def from the shield+ blockrate from the bich buff. With heuksal you get a hp passive and major dmg wep skills. With bow you get well...ar and kb lol

Most don't recommend pure int as Bow ( and so do i ) , i think 70:70 is the best .
Fire and ice can be good with bow .

dam i wanna be pure int
i like ranged magical attacks lol
well the 70 70 bow is kind of confusing for me
I dont understand it fully, it is a hybrid
so not enough hp as full str, and also not enough mp
as a full int.

i guess it wouldnt hurt to try a full int with bow lol

It is not common to have a pure int bow but it won't suck , There was a guide somewhere on srf about full int bow build , it maybe worth a look .

if you want to make a pure int bow, you should follow what you want to do lol.
It will obviously be epic at grinding, but pvp wouldnt be as easy

I'd say go a lil bit more hybrid, as spear nukers do.
90%, 1:7, 1:5 etc.

pvp is fine, since i dont like it and i never do it lol
i grind mostly and 1 star trades
so thanks for all the advice
ill try an all int bow
if i dont like it ill try a hybrid build

That's the beauty of int builds, you can go pure int and if you feel like you lack hp or phy dmg you can still change your build to a hybrid int in later lvl's.

There is a video of a lvl 80 full int grinding in tomb.

I dont have time to fetch it at the moment tho.
