Bowman skill question.

[eippikgroover]

Ok I am new to the forum and wanting to state and ask a few things. I am a mainly Str lvl 25 bowman. (I think about 80% str) (messed up at the beginning and put too much into int)

I have A lot of buffs: weak ice, mag-def fire, fire att% thing, grass-walk, and piercing force. plus all the passives I can get so far ice and light 20, and fire 18.

Pach is at 21 and I have 9 anti-devil, 8 multi arrow, 4 hawk, 1 atum wind...(useless), 1 range increase thing, plus passive.

Should I get any other skills? (like hp and mp passives? or somthing else)

I am using ice for my main and I am wondering if I should get light also?
(I really like using ice and dont like fire cuz I get hurt to much -.- and ice, light is less common =D)
*note: i am going to put all strength from now on.
(I would like to be an ok PvP and good PvE(that monster right?))
pshh i am soo noob -.-

comment please.

i would get the foce passive, since ur mainly str. but if u dont want to raise force and stick to a strict build just dont get the passive.
u could also delvel a tree, but it would cost a lot of money depending on the mastrey lvl.

i fell that lighting i necessary for every build, especially for a bowman who needs speed. i would get grass walk. maybe delevel some of the passives like the fire defense which wont work with a bow. that is if u can spare the cash.

IMO:

Pacheon: max all, even the autumn wind series, it is handy during trading with youre guild and killing there spawns. Since you only have 2 AoE attacks.

Fire: max all the buffs + imbue

Lighting: max all the buffs

The other one is optional, you can take force, but only take force for the skills, it is useless if you wanna do it for the mp.
I picked ice, for the buff, the passive and the imbue, you will be suprised how much people arent ice imuen at higher levels. You can go heuksal for the hp bonus, but IMO that is kinda useless, why would you take a whole tree only for the passive?

aim for a 90/39 or 88/42 balance

[eippikgroover]

Thank you for the replies, I will use them in the game.

But also I wanted to know if I should get an ice-light imbune (makes attacks have the force:fire,ice,light right?) so i attack is with ice to freeze or slow and then go to light for damage and shock. sounds good to me but not sure If i can pull it off or not...?

any thoughts about that?


*(btw what do ppl mean when they say 88/42 or whatever? jw)

In my opinion, go 1 imbue per fight

Depends on what ur doing farming/grindin...
If ur farming go 1 imbue
If ur grinding u should go 1 imbue as well because if ur forced to imbue twice in a battle then ur monsters are too strong for grinding or farming

Im lvl 43 in my other char(full itel sword/nuker(ice(cuz its kool and fire srt..)))

But in this one im a lvl 24 full str bowmen like u except i go fire becuase in the long run fire will be much more efective then light/cold
So i use fire and i use the first pacheon skill and combo pacheon skill both at 8 or 7 not sure cuz im keepin a 6 six defference i go first skill and the n shoot one,combo him,first skill again with 1 imbue so im lvl 24 gighten huyongo's and 1 imbue does it. For ur lvl i think ur going a small gap so my sugestion, if ur going with ice and full str bow, figh demon/devil horses ull murder them and they might get max 1 shot on u although ull have to use 2 imbues

To summerize try 1 imbue with fire/light but with ice its meant to be a 2 imbue cuz its slow but efficient (with double combo+ice imbue 95% chance u FB him(frostbite)).


COncluding go with fire/ice imbue but in middle of battle dont switch imbues keep with ice if u start with ice or keep with fire if u start with fire

I use fire and ice in the same fight, pvping though.

First I use ice imbue to freeze them if possible. But since ice is a bit behind, I switch to fire imbue to finish them off. ^^
