[Guide] Pure Str Bow.

[VeniVidiVici]

All i have too say is really great guide.

I'm making a Rogue/Bard atm.. But thinking of following this guide too make a fun character,( Since i like both Chinese and Euro. )

I'll let ya know how it goes hehe ^^,

Take care

Edit: How come you don't wanna use any cold? ( For mostly Snow Shield )

In my opinion pure str needs: Pacheon 90 (this is your weapon masterie), ice 0/30 (whatever you want), light 90 (for speed increase and parry ratio) and fire 90 (gives magical defence and phy dmg). This is just my opinion.

and I hope you'll enjoy your bowman

Lols, Thanks.

And i do enjoy it, But god there pot whores

[Waffelz]

( Sorry for double post. )

But i was wondering.. If i could go 0 cold, And just follow the others you layed out?..[ And still be fine PVPing and PvM ] ( Getting Sp's a pain for chinese )

And, I made a pure str.. But MP went down like crazy, So i decided to go all INT till 20, Then str for the rest of the way.. Is this a good choice? ( I'm not too good with bow buils [ Never made 1 ] )

If this doesn't turn out good, I'ma just go back to my xbow/bard

Thanks, Hopefully someone can answer this.

Well, ofcourse you can go without cold. I'm only using it in critical situations.
Also ice 30 wont need a lot of sp, just 2k or 3k sp.

Your mp won't be a problem as pure str if you have a good pimped set. Garment will help with the mp problem, since it reduces mp use with 20%.

[Waffelz]

Lol, Yea.

But the downside is, I'm playing on a new server, and making profit with a bowman is kinda hard. ;x

If i an figure out my old acc pass and everything, I'd be rich and wouldn't have a problem , But really havn't thought about it.

( Goes and thinks in a corner )

Thanks,
Cory

No, 2 int points do not make alot difference between hybrid and full str, so you didnt farked up your build

What should i have my gap at?

What should i have my gap at?

Not sure if the table from the Characters and Skills section is outdated or not,
http://www.janrique.com/silkroad/SP.htm
but according to that a 5 gap to the 80 cap will give you a bit more than this guide says you need.

So you wouldn't recommend we learn any cold defensive moves, or is this that point of pure str, not needing any extra defense?

I'm not saying you shouldn't get ice, I'm saying lightning is more handy for a pure str. (Btw I switched to Force instead of light, light will stay 30 tho) More about Force Archer read Rainigul's guide.

Ooohhw !!! Finally a good guid for a full STR bow !!!

Yeezz

Thanks a lot !!!
but 1 question more do kill easy a hybrid spear2:1 int ??
Wich builds are the hardest to kill ??


Cya !!

[VeniVidiVici]

It'll be hard to kill a 2:1 int hybrid spear, especially when he uses snow shield. But nothing is impossible. He'll have a hard time to kill you either.

And every build is hard to kill, it's the player who makes the difference between winning or losing. Tho, I prefer Warrior/Cleric as a build which is very hard to kill.

how much sp would you need for 100 cap?

[VeniVidiVici]

With these skills +- 1-1.1 mil. That's calculated without the sp you get from 0-gapping to 90. Which is from lvl 1-90 220k. BTW http://www.nivlam.com is your friend ^^.
