[DopeX]

Well Fire 90 bow 90 ice/lightning 60 i suggest you not do and mac at leats 3 trees, i would delvl ice and like the guy above said 90 bow 90 lightning 90 fire and 30 ice. However If you do, do force it would kick ass, but most ppl dunno like it

[noobert mclagg]

Go for it, that is the bow build im gunna use for my hybrid.

70:70 with force isn't a good option IMO. You have to sacrifice an awefull amount of defence (if you won't level up ice) or your damage is crap with such a low lightning (70:70 is int-based, and even force won't compensate something like 19% magical damage or w/e it is.)

I would go for:
90 cold
90 light
90 pacheon
30 fire.

good damage, SUPBERB tanking ability with snowshield.

70:70 cant use the 50% snowshield.... will run out of mana all the time

[raphaell666]

90 pacheon 90 light 90 force 30 ice?

I dont think that would be recommended (lack of defense), and I would recommend you to get a higher phys balance (if you want to use 90force/90light) as you would have sort off low hp with 80:80 and you wont have snow shield to help you out; anyway, you will be able to easily deal a lot of damage with 80:80 +light and force (afaik).

@Doctor_MOS
Completely agree. +1 (the build he said would need to use garment, as you would sort of lack mag def without fire [I think])

[Berto]

You'll lack a ton of defence with 70:70 force bow :s
Maybe if you had bicheon instead or went hybrid str with bow. Then itd look like 90 bow, 90 light, 90 force, and 30 cold.

[MrFudge]

as everyone has already mentioned, you'd die pretty quick.
30 ice is 25% snow. A pure str with force can pull that off.
Either go hybrid str or pure or don't take force at all.

70:70 cant use the 50% snowshield.... will run out of mana all the time

the ice three got more then only snowshield. @80 cap 70:70 can use 45% snowshield against str glavies...proberly it can use 50% snow on 90 cap.

and when u've got 90 ice you get:
Imbue (Im using both lightning and ice on my char)
Phy defence
Icewall (VERY important skill, especially against euro's,)
passive


*I like the ice nukes*

[SuperTanker]

no dont get force... u dont lack dmg, but defense.

90 fire
90 lightning
90 pacheon
30 ice

or

90 lightning
90 pacheon
60 fire
60 ice

believe me u will need lightning for ghost walk phantom.

[magisuns]

the one that you thought of is the best one...

Also, keep in mind that if you go force, it's all or nothing.

Which means in future gaps ( i.e 100 ) you can only have 3 tables: Force 100, Bow 100, and one more for imbue( Light, maybe ? )

In 110 onwards, force may not be that tempting anymore, since 110 force would imply not-maxed bow, or not-max imbue.

If you dont give a sh!t about further caps, or want to try out a unique build, then i think it's a most valuable yet most lacked thing in SRO nowadays.
