Hey guys. You probably recognize me now as the most annoying person in this forum with pointless topics and etc.

I do have a new question though and that is which build is strong in both pvp and pve fully farmed?

I just recently moved to Hercules as you probably all know since Ive been posting it here plenty of times.

I currently have a lvl 22 pure str archer but it seems to me that pure int archers does more dmg but low hp hehe. Those pure int chars that are using bows at from lvl 1 - 30 are doing more dmg than me with imbue.

So im wondering, is pure str archer that good at both pvp and pve/pvm?

I want a build that I can kill monsters quickly as well as do very well in pvp.

Ive always been a pure int char on my previous servers or hybird int nukers and I thought it would be nice to change a bit.

I want to decide this question now before I waste another 500 silk on both Premium and SP Ticket on this Pure Str archer character I have in Hercules.

So what do you guys think is a good build for both pvp and pve.

I was thinking of 85% mag balance int nuker sword/shield but the low hp and the decision I have to make between fire and ice since Ice will have the mana shield and I dont quite know if its worth it or not but is a life saver. Though, Ice nukes are very weak and considering Ill be hybird witha sword, its gonna be weaker than being a pure int with sword or hybird with spear.

Thanks in advance and Ill be waiting for replies. I need to decide whether to keep this pure str archer and if its gonna be stronger at higher lvl. Is it?

Just want to decide before I spend another 300 silk or so.

Stick with pure str bow. It grinds pretty fast for first 60 levels, then slows down a bit, but then you're really close to a good pvp age.

I've always thought bows were good in pvp especially if they're farmed.
Just make sure to buy 10k stacks of arrows or you'll die of lack of inventory space & stuff...

Pure int s/s should do good with update as well, but imho, bow is most fun chinese build. If I bought silk, I'd play as a bow.

hey guys. Ahh theres till too many botters even at lvl 20+ areas in hercules. Should I jsut farm at lvl 16 at archers and make a nuker char? I hate botters!!!

GRrrr. O think I will. not many people in archers anyway. Should I?

there is no and. there is only an or. in pve, full int nuker rule all. in pvp, especially job/guild war, full str chars survive longest. but a good compromise between killing and tanking is pure str. glaive.

I hate bows.

Great that's out of the way.

Personally, best PvE is pure int and best PvP is int dual weapon.

Ok, if I make a nuker. Should It be spear or sword?

And I wont be lvling fire at all, Ill be lvling only lightning ice and one weapon mastery. Lightning as my main skill. Ice for mana shield and defense.

Just need to decide which weapon. And hybird is what I should go for? or pure?
