If you want someone to accurately tell you what str build is right for you then you should list what characteristics you want in your character. If you prefer your character to have range and nice crits, go with bow. If you prefer to be a beastly tanker at the cost of dmg be a blader. If you prefer a well rounded character that can tank decently well and damage decently well be a glaive.

They're all good. Bow gets better at a higher level, Glaive attacks are strong, Bladers are the best tankers around.
I'm a Blader myself, and even though many told me to switch to glaive because they can do more damage, I always loved the tanking abilities and the looks of the skills and I don't even want to think of switching to another build.
Just think about what you want to play most. All three of these builds are good, but being good isn't the only important thing. You should also really like the build you're playing, since getting to the cap will take a while. Just think about it for a while before taking your decision.
I'm sure others will tell you about what build they play and why they like it so much.

If u only want to hav 2 masteries I would suggest making a euro. Chinese need to hav more than one mastery to excel in pvp/pve, but euro's only need 2 to be good at both. If u set on making a Chinese character then I would make a blader because if ur only gunna use the weapon and fire masteries u will need all the defense u can get to make up for the lose of ice and light. If u decide to make a euro I would go rogue/cleric because crossbow is so good for pve and daggers own at pvp and jobbing. And with a cleric sub ur efficiency in both pve/pvp will increase greatly.

when I started this game I was a blader and I love every moment until the people in my guild where telling to switch to glavie cause they do more damage , so around lvl 64 I began switching to glavie, and I love glavie alot its so fun. BUT blader will always be my fav. btw im 80 and fully farmed xD

I don't see how you can figure they will just start owning randomly at Lvl 120... Care to explain? And at Lvl 90 we only get a new Ghost Spear so they won't be owning to much more...
Personally, I think a 80:80 Bow + Lightning is the best 2, well 3 because you can take 20 Cold, mastery character you can make as a Chinese.

Glavie = 1Hits
Blade = Cool moves
Bow = Fast Grinding
Your choice, I'd go with bow till lvl 32, then switch over to Spear till a high lvl. Spear = + magical attack. Use Lion shout and the lvl 30 Light nuke to 2 hit and grind till a high lvl. Then gap and collect SP needed for your build. I got this method off some guide up on the forums. But it's a really good concept.
