hi

i wonder if a pure int or hybrid int bowie is of any use in pve??(not interested in pvp atm)

would the higher average dmg outwage the crits from str bows??? (pve wise!!! not talking bout pvp)


or should i stick to a str bow?
but this would cost me a lot more due to the need of high + bows with high crit...

i thought about...
full int(or at least 90% magical balance)
usual bow skills
ice imbue...light buffs


well the question is:
is INT bow or STR bow better for pve only???
if anyone has a high int bow...pls share ur expiriences !

:D

Crit is nearly double for str. Int = small tiny crits.
Besides, if you dont pvp, there is no point in playing this game

hmm..other thread had this b4. even though int bow has higher average dmg...they will not have that much hp to tank. bow is all about crit and the way u use the skill. and i heard that ice imbus at the later part of the game is not really that useful anymore.

bow is an average weapon with middle range of phy and mag att. so if u use int bow, u will be weaker than full int spear/sword user. and u will have less hp compared with str bow user.

oh ya, chaud is right, this game is about pvp. even if u do not wanna pvp, when u do trade, hunter or thief, there will still be pvp. and u will be slightly at a disadvantage.
