bow---->blade or glaive

Post by Pake1 »

With the effects gone from fire/ice wall, what is the main strategy that archers use now. What i used to do when pvp is anti, if no crit then ghost walk and ice wall, repeat till crit (on ints only, str is just never ending chase)

On top of that I'm considering buying skill reallocation pots from item mall to change my bow mastery to blade or glaive. I guess me just using the bow was just for grinding till 70. Its still fun, though killing ints only isn't all that great.

lol i guess i should've gone with blade or glaive in the first place. oh well.

Lol hey man

Well it still maybe.

Main reason is because bow made grinding so much easier. And since this game is 90% grind why not. Lol i still gotta get the money for skill pots if I really wanna go through with it.

Don't get me wrong, archers are fun, but not being able to kill any other build other than ints and lower lvls sux.

I'm inching over to blader once i hit 70..... blocks and kd yum. :roll:

I'll make my final decision once I get my devil arrow, and see how that works.

Maybe you can consider to switch to glavie?
For me.i think that glavie is cool and attack damage is more..
But don't get me wrong..The blader also good...
My brother is a blader..We both are same level..We always pvp together..
And it's hard for me to kill him as well when his level is lower than me because of the knock down skill that he have..
So i think it's still depend on yourself...See which weapon and skill you prefer..good luck// :D :D

Glaiver will require less overall sp to be fully farmed probably by like 30K or so.

Blader gives you better tanking abilities and STR chars rarely ever challenge you to fight. Block FTW.

I turned 70 and saw how useless bow is other than PvM.
I am now a blader and couldnt be any happier.

yeah but you really need the chains to level...

leveling with KD and stab is WAY to slow...

get soul blade for pulling in mobs and such (all three books.. lol)

so pretty much:

chain --> PvM
KD+stab --> PvP

if you need tips on how to grind go find cuch's nachal video... ill search for it
