Bow build.

[Apocalypse57]

guys, im deciding to create a bow char (china). I've been reading many threads on bow builds but can't really narrow anything down to something good. Can someone suggest a good build for lvl 90, or 80, it would really be appreciated.

thanks

[boybitz699]

90 pacheon
90 fire
90 light
30 ice

go pur str, u should be good

[Tamira]

Well at 90 gap you really have 2 choices.
90 fire
90 light
90 pacheon
30 ice
or
90 fire
90 light
90 pacheon
30 heksuel(for extra hp).
Good luck im pure str bow, crt really do own glaivers!!!

[Bounzzer]

I would say pure Str, high hp, high crits, good phys defense.

90 pacheon
90 fire(imbue)
90 light
30 ice (20% manashield helps a lot)

[sinny]

or all skill same as above (with cold 30), and str hybrid bow 85:50! this way u can the snow shield from cold xD you do not lost a lot a crit damage to full str and your dps is better! might lost some hp but snow shield make up for it!

[vanom]

Good luck im pure str bow, crt really do own glaivers!!!

only in your dreams or you just fought noobs.

[Lulor]

90 pach 90 fire 90 force 30 light awsome dmg with force and you only need light for the speed so who cares? ^^

[Elise]

Pure str pacheon and fire 90. The rest is up to you. There is no wrong answer.

[Phix]

Pacheon 90,
Lightning 90
Fire 90
Force 30 (i got this for p0werlvling reasons)

Pure Pure Pure Str, I have no int on my gear/weapons at all my phy balance is 115%

[angel_X]

i dont really see the point in 30 cold...
so id go with the hesukal for the added hp..

[RogueKiller]

329 more hp is almost nothing to make a difference.

[Apocalypse57]

alright, thnx guys for all the help, I'll prolly go 90 pach, 90ligh, 90 fire, 30 ice.

[Snoopy]

80:

80 Fire, 80 Pacheon, 70 Light, and 70 Cold.

90:

90 Fire, 90 Pacheon, 60 Light, and 60 Cold.

This is what I've got, however I'm a glaiver.

[Barotix]

Pure Str
Pacheon: 90
Light: 90
Fire: 90 (imbue)
Ice: 30

Or

Hybrid STR
Pacheon: 90
Light: 90 (imbue)
Ice: 90
Fire: 30

Hybrid STR

Pacheon: 90
Light: 90
Force: 90
Fire or Ice: 30

[noobert mclagg]

85+ str hybrid with 90 pach/90light/90force/30ice. The extra int will make up for the imbue damage and light will increase ur parry ratio, moving speed, magical attack, and ghost walk. Force debuffs will make u crit as hard or harder than pure str, u can res, u can cure other peoples debuffs with out expensive pill or holy word, and one of the force debuffs lower ur opponents attack power. 30 will let u use 25% snow shield. Also, this build is an awesome power lvlr

[RogueKiller]

My plan:
80:
80 Heuskal
80 Light
80 Fire
60 Ice

90:
90 Heuskal
90 Light (Or force)
90 Fire
60 Ice (If force then light 30)

[Doctor_MOS]

(you can think of 70:70)


not starting pointless discussion

[DaZzY]

90 pacheon
90 fire
90 light
30 ice

go pur str, u should be good

Iam going to powerfarm 1.5mil sp for my bower @ ongs and my build will be:

Pure Str.

Pacheon ~ 90
Light ~ 90
Fire ~ 90
Force ~ 30 (for the first debuff)

The first debuff is useless. When it comes to force you either go high or go home.

+1,
Till 60 the curses are pointless.

[caseyd4]

I like the Idea of HYB force sounds nice, drop the fire light is what you want.

[Asheru]

90 Pach
90 Fire
90 Light
30 ice/heuk/force w/e u want

if ur thinking for 100 cap like some ppl are just:
90 Pach
90 Fire
90 Light

so if u think ull be playing by 100 cap (prolly 6months - 1 year) dont lvl ice to 30 so later on u dont have to go through curst hearts or get silk for skill reallocation thing

[MrFudge]

If you're planning for 80 cap then..

80 pach
80 fire
70 ice
70 light

is so godly.

90 cap...

90 pach
90 fire
90 ice
30 light

godly in a sense that you can outank the other chinese player. Sure they can run around and stuff but they're not gonna kill you that way unless they call for back up.

i m startin a new bow character myself,just want to know if ur talkin about the more phy def that cold gives u or ur talkin about the snow shield as i m thinkin about 90 pach/90 fire/90 ice/ 30 light or i might take 90 pach/90 light/90 ice/30 fire with light imbue.

[Cheeze]

Well at 90 gap you really have 2 choices.
90 fire

90 pacheon

Good luck im pure str bow, crt really do own glaivers!!!

What do you think is better the 16 points phy def from cold at 30 or the 329 hp from heksuel at 30 for a pur str bow?

[RogueKiller]

Cold is much better. The 16 phy defense is anything special. Your specialty from 30 ice will be the 20% snow shield. A pure str with 20% snow shield is ownage because they can handle it at 80 cap to some extant and at 90 cap it is even easier.

How much MP is enough to use snow shield? From the feedback I got here it kills mp way to fast viewtopic.php?f=4&t=86547

[RogueKiller]

20-23% snow shield for a pure str is fine. Just use XL mp pots at 80 and 90 and set your mp auto pot to 80%.
Having 8-9k mp at 80 cap with XL mp pots does not kill your mp. You gain more mp faster than you lose.

[TwIsTeD69]

Will Pure str force 90 Fire 90 Cold 30 be good for 90 cap? Also is Hybrid or str Hybrid better? I thought about makeing A hybrid str Light 90 Force 90 cold 30 kinda like Mrfudges build.

[RogueKiller]

It works. Hybrid bow isn't bad at all.
