My all means, go pure STR.
If you plan on later caps, screw the ice.
That pretty much sums it up.

80:80 archer is getting common. and hell, it rox. a friend of mine got a lv39 archer with 81:83 balance and outdamages every fckin nuker on his lv with some 32+3 sos bow... i mean, killing red scorps with a strong bow, and in some cases a combo afterwards.

does 2:1 good for pvp or jobs. cauz bow is a hybrid weapon. sword-blade,glavie-spear and bow is the one.

try a 4:1 or 5:1 archer

nothing about outdamging people pure int spear out dmg any build so thats invaild

i have close to a 5:1 archer = 88/42 balance naked

1st i would like to say any build owns with good eq

but for good build i would go for 85 - 90 phys balanace for an archer

if u go any lower than 85 phys u have too little hp to tank the hits

and too much str = ur dmg too low

2:1 archer has too much int = too little hp = better build for spear


archer need hp.. until the update where archer get KB and stun then i would say u could go to a 80% phys as lowest

I have a 80:80 bow hybrid, the only ONLY ONLY time i do more damage than a nuker is when I crit on strong bow. (in other words not very often)
An yes I have had sos/som bows my entire char life and my balance of str and int have never fallen below 80:80
