Archers

Post by pakakid »

Well thanks to Nitro i saw the chinese lvl 120 skills. I was reading through that topic and many people are happy with all the new things that bow's are getting. I also was reading that the snow shield gives u like 70% or something like that. Now due to that enormous increase in %, does that mean that Archers that are hybrid could do better than pure str? Also what forces do you think will be dominate and become most popular? Please discuss your thoughts. Srry for english ><

Most use forces are lightning and ice.

The stun and kb skills for bowers are nice. but a 5 arrow combo and a 6 arrow combo both with 30% chance to kb each hit without linked cooldown is over kill...Fighting (mostly) turks with that will result in them spamming those 2 and wasting pots all over the place.

well...many people say already that hybrid bow is stronger than full str bow...in hera there are even some pure int BOW (like COMIC) but int bow suck so much..get 1-2hitted almost by everyone hehe...

hmm exactly, but what i mean is hybrid dont have as much str as a pure str. With the new snowsheild a hybrid can now get the defense they need plus more damage.

if you wanna use a 50%+ snow shield on a hybrid char u must be heavy hybrid cause u need lots of MP to use them,cause i've see many NOOB glavier\blader\bow ( str builds users) with snow shield lv 80 that stop fighting during pvp cause they're mp run out lol

120 cap will be intersting. because at that time you would be forced to only have 2 main masteries. so in order to get the full snow sheild benifit you would need to either have ice as your primary imbue and force class (with weapon of course) or primary light with weapon

In all honestly its not "that" bad. If people over use those skills it will give someone a chance to repot, the skills themselves do very little damage. Sure its defiantly a lot of KB but in a GW or even a FW situation, a good player would fight from afar and not actually get attacked much at all, thus the need for KB is slightly diminished.
