str bows for best crit builds and they own now cuz of the new skills ,

but the best hybrid for bow is 70:70 alot of people been saying and with enough blues at high lvls u can make 80:80 ( phy% : mag% )

Rofl 70:70? Dude theres 3 problems with a 70:70 build bowman

1: They die so easily its not even funny. (Because they have no shield NOR HP Increase Passive)

2. They don't deal enough damage to kill someone before they kill you.

3. Weak CRITICALS!!!!!!

Bowman HAVE TO HAVE powerful criticals because thats why JoyMax made Silkroad bowman have 2 SKILLS with Critical Increase...Anti Devil AND Strong Spirit both have Critical Increase

They have mana shield, knock bad every few seconds ecause of 5 combo and stun

2. They don't deal enough damage to kill someone before they kill you.

more damage than str bow and more range than nuker

3. Weak CRITICALS!!!!!!

its already proven they're crits are matched if not better than str's

Bowman HAVE TO HAVE powerful criticals because thats why JoyMax made Silkroad bowman have 2 SKILLS with Critical Increase...Anti Devil AND Strong Spirit both have Critical Increase


go for 70/70 or 90% or full str

80% mag will give very good Mp that let him use snow shield ..
2. They don't deal enough damage to kill someone before they kill you.

sometimes they wil deal like or more than hybird INT

3. Weak CRITICALS!!!!!!

Just don't care on what others said, most importantly to your preference and playstyle, you like highest crits, then go pure str, you like unique then hybrid.

I don wanna reply to heavily on crits =/ i think am liking the 90% phy ratio but now that i think about it i can actually afford to +int on all my equips anyways, so i might just up my mag. balance /w equips alone =/ but having a bit more normal atk is pretty useful...

Sooooooo how much weaker is a 90% phy hybrid bow's crit compared to a full str? it can't be that much right?

yep, but undutchable isn't full farmed, you don't know what type of gear they are using... but i think full str crits will be higher, but 80:80 crits are pritty heavy too!
i think he won't get 3k extra damage when undutchable is full farmed

STR hybrid can't outdamage Pure STR criticals, you think 70:70 can?

sorry im from the netherlands, let me try to explain
ok, BakaFish you are full farmed and since ur making the best full str crits on this forum, i assume you've got almost max blues too...

Undutchable is comming close with max blue's with his gear, so he isn't going to pimp his 11k damage with that...however Undutchable (aka kaws whatever) isn't full farmed/full skilled etc...this means he doesn't have reached his max damage yet

so the difference between ur crits and his will be less in the future :roll:

was i clear?

lol .. you call this pots war pvp ?! .. nice vedio prove that JoyMax reduced pure str bow chances to die against glavier from 100% to 30 % by the new skills .. xD ..

yes you do 14 k crit damge .. but what you can do after that as pure str bow ? you crit with 14 k .. but you will not kill glavier fast enough even with your fully farmed charecter .. 80 : 80 bow will do total damge better than you .. I will try to make some calculates and tell you later

80:80 bow kill glaviers easier for sure let's say he have +20%~30% more chance than pure str to kill .. and can kill bladers that thing pure str can't .. and can stand against european rouge too.. and he is 50% better and faster in PVE also .. and better for unique hunting .. he will take the kill from from all pure str and pure int in the server as he will not run when see elite royal guards as pure int always run .. and will not run from shamans as pure str run .. and off course he will do more damge on yarakan than pure str ..

And the best thing about 80:80 bow is that 80:80 bow more funny and enjoyable ..

I should have known, Dutch for Dutch eh. No offence, I live in NL myself. By the way, i lack 3 STR on gears. Depends on what glaivers he's fighting. One of the glaivers in the movie had sosun garments while another had everything +5. Even if KaWs were to be fully farmed, i still seriously doubt
that hybrid will outcrit a Pure STR.

elnawawi wrote:And the best thing about 80:80 bow is that 80:80 bow more funny and enjoyable ..

Another confusing sentence.

Yes, I agree that Hybrid has higher DPS than Pure STR. However, do you think hybrids can tank as well a Pure STR? Do you think that you can survive for 1 minute without Snow Shield with those crits? Do you think you can deal as much damage if your opponent were to wear Protectors?

Once again, I'm gonna say we are yet to see which bow build is the best because each has their own pros and cons.

this is all about preference, some people like to tank better than to deal damage don't you think?
maybe you've even got some people who like to die :shock: pure int bow ftw! (in pvp aspects =p)

This is what I think an 80:80 bower is nothing without it's equipment, B/c you need extra equip stats to get to 80:80 anyways.

Pure str is more straight forward and playable w/o pimped gear :roll:

Only way to prove whos stronger is to have a lvl 80 pure str bow vs. a lvl 80 hybrid bow /w Full npc gear.

That's unfair, because with NPC gears, Hybrids are for sure to lose as they depend a lot on their blues from their gears.

... No comment, anyway .. I pvp with my bowman its hybrid and it rapes anything. Joymax didn't make this game just to make "Pure" builds. It would be boring. You need to find the right hybrid build. I would say my build is the best in the game and won't tell anyone :> PEAcE
