Hi everyone
im currently str glaiver fire/light...im thinking of changing to bow..im farming at lvl 52 and im nearly there. would it be worth changing to bow? im pure str...thanks:)

my main concern is pvp...whats going to do better?

[BTW] Whats the best bow build..some say hybrid using ice..some say full str. Im full str and its to late to turn hybrid...all stats have been to str since lvl 1...and im lvl 50. Anyone that does lots of pvp please help me out here

Don't know if u attrack many value of my opinion..
But i should go Bow, with the knockback it has become very nice, and now u can stun 2, jsut like glave.

grtz

i cant answer cuz i have the same question.
i found many vedioes for PVP pure str glavier VS pure str bow man , always bowman win.
and i saw the skills of bow and heuskal at 90 cap, i found bow i better.
im still glavier but im thinking about switch to bow ,
so plz help

bow is the best

ok...8/10 votes say bow atm... ^^ come on everyone need more opinions and btw...dont just vote for ur build...vote for what actuly is "better" pvp wise...glaive would be better than bow till it has knockback and stun...after that im not sure...i like both of the builds

thanks

lets just say bows are funner and they just got a new skill ^^ so its worth a try!

yeah imo i think bows are more fun...but how well will i do in pvp?

I'd personally make the switch, i've always thought bow weres fun and unlike other builds you usually end up using all of the skills.

Bows seem to do well in pvp, from the videos i've seen the arrow combo almost always kb's and they get some pretty insane crits.

yeah bow hits some nice crits = ) i think its a fun build atm...il probly make the switch

i rly recomend bow. they can do lots of crits and wit the new skills they are hella strong now.

I made the switch from glaiver to bow too, and am starting to really enjoy being a archer. Your main strength in pvp is critting so i recommend a bow with 8 or more crit. Anti-devil bow is very useful in pve and pvp, 1st book 20crit increase, 2nd 25, 3rd 30. This is added on to your wep crit so its like u crit every 2 hits. Strong bow is your ulimate atk, probably the strongest str based atk i think =P. I would still keep glaive passives just in case, just so u can have the same hp as a pure str glaiver. if have a difficult time pvp a person try running and ghost walking away and shoot at them. Ice wall and fire walls are very useful b/c you can't get stunned,kded while in the wall. also it lower.s the persons atk by a good amount of points

what lvl are you? and i always aim for weapons with crit 10+ but if i have to il settle for 8-9

in my opinion if u play str only bow is u hope..cos i seen many pure str glavie vs hybrid or pure int they can't kill those int build cos of the mana shield....but the str bow got chance to kill int when cri come out ^^....in soon i will say that s/s pure int is the best...cos of lvl cap increase the block rate of passive skill will increase too....plus cri parry on shield effect+++shield skill that increase phy def .... i thinks pure s/s int will own many other build.....but i thinks euro xbow can 1 hit kill s/s int...

Go bow way more fun to play. And even has the abilty of knockback and stun that glavie has.

yeah i find bow alot more fun...but does it beat glaive for pvp...btw i will be pure str...i thought hybrid bows was better than pure str

Definitely switch to bow. As said to you earlier with knockback and stun full str bow is amazing.

btw everyone...i will be using a sos bow at 8D and when i get to lvl 72 i just buy a +5 lvl 72 bow...and only normal garms with blues...can i still do good in pvp? im probly going to switch..its much more fun imo...and faster leveling/farming

i am pure str bow lvl 60 pacheon/cold/light and i am pretty damn good at pvp. you will do fine. with the new skillz and if you have a good crit bow you will freaking own
