Bow support?
Bow support?
i was thinking. i'm new to this game so like don't flame. would it be wise to make a bow support. with RES and some sort of heal. and probably ice so that probably other players can kill? i'm new only got a lvl 20 and i'm not so sure how the pvp system works. The ice wouldn't be to high. but i'm thinking fire would be higher or lighting. I'm new to this game so some help would be greatly appreciated. if i'm wrong i'll just use the curse hearts and stuff.
This is essentially the build i currently have. Projected plan when im done farming is:
Bow 80
Light 80
Force 79
Fire 61
I would also recommend Pure STR or a Heavy STR Hybrid though with the new skills coming for bowers, you might be able to get away with more INT, but a STR build is definetly recommended.
Bow 80 - as a str build, your weapon mastery will add a lot of damage for you.
Light 80 - This is my main imbue. The damage difference between this and fire is not that great and the added splash effect will help during grinding. Grasswalk and Phantom are essential for agility...to gain range on your opponents to charge your attack, and to quickly get out of sticky situations. The parry ratio buff and the passive increase will help take less damage. 16% mag damage increase buff adds damage but if you are pure str, this will make less of a difference than if you are a hybrid or int based. Still, 16% increase is nice.
Force 79 - Im not sure if you get any new skills that will be worthwhile at 80, but with force this high, you will be able to res anyone on the server. Healing mainly takes a back seat because of our non-existent pot delay, so people can heal themselves. Harmony Therapy is nice for when you are in a heavily agro area. It keeps mobs out of your circle so you can kill them at the pace you desire. The passive also increases MP, which as a str based build, you will somewhat lack.
Fire 61 - You will gain a decent physical damage increase (13%), fire shield to help be status immune (at this lvl, you only need a combined 30% resistance on your jewelry), and you gain magical defence which you lack as a str character. 61 will get you Hard fire protection lvl 3, which takes a considerable jump from lvl 2 (something like 41 increase to 70 increase)
Being a healer isnt for the person who wants to be the most "pwnage" on the server though we can compete very well. Reason for this is with force being one of your main masteries, you "miss out" so to speak on the high level buffs you will get from an offensive tree. That is a choice you have to make though.
