which pure str?

Post by PearlBow »

My final character i am making, i want it to be a pure str character but the two weapons i like best are bow and glavie. Which build is better in PVE and PVP or good with both and can PVP better?

1. Pure Str Bow Fire, Light and Cold
2. Pure Str Glavie Fire and Light + Pacheon (for Eagle and Passive)

For PvP use the pure str Glaive since it could deal more damage up close.

For PVE choose bow because you can kill the MONSTERS before they get to you. :D

Glaive does fairly well in PvE but excels more in PvP rather than bow. IMO

Good Luck

1. bow does very well against mobs and does good in pvp
2. glavie does good against mobs and very well in pvp?
kinda like the spear and sword- 1 is better in the other in a way.

they all have their balances pearl... you see, bow is good because of the distance... even if your opponent has phantom walk, you can start your bow attack and hit your enemy about 7 times before they even get to you.... however, your damage is lower than the glave...

with the spear and sword, yes, the spear does more damage than the sword, however, you get more defense because of the shield... you trade 1 benefit for another... if we were really efficient... you could switch weapons while you were pvp'ing... start with a spear nuke, and when the enemy gets close, switch to sword and shield for the close combat stuff..

all balanced out in the end... :)

i know that, some of us dont have alot of sp and dont like farming. So say, can bow users do as good in pvp as glavie or is the other better?

from what i've experienced, glavers do better in pvp 1vs1... in a group, bows rules...

Yea Ting is about right...

Bow is good when it is supporting someone, it basically pwns with that one move. (the one with the awesome animation)

But 1v1 good luck, I've seen some bows own some other builds.

It just comes down to what you like really.
