Bow Build for my bro

[HardStyla]

Ok my broo wants to know a good bow build he will be full str hopefully full farmed he is not sure what imbue and stuff so give opinions ill put toll but pls post comment aswell dont ask about force he doesnt want it lol

I would go 100 pacheon / 100 fire / 80 light / and 20 ice

OR you could go 100 light and 0 ice but i would do the first thing just for snow shield. light lvl 80~100 doesnt really give you anything but speed and a few more parry

Bow needs snow shield.

[Carrusel]

ah I like 100 pacheon,100 Fire, and 100 Cold.
most bowers go for 100pacg, 100fire, 80ligh, 20cold, but i dont like to take builds that most bowers take.

you realize that...... pacheon/fire/light and pacheon/light/fire is the same thing right.....? LOLOL

if your full str.... you would NEVER need 100ice... that 80% of snow shield will only kill your mp AND still drain your hp... 100ice and the snow shield would actually not help but maybe only cause harm.. way too much mp will be consumed and not enough mp to stand it..

bow does need snow shield but 20% is more than enough for a full str. and thats why people go 100pacheon/100fire/80light/20ice.

and not having light just defeats the purpose of bow. to be able to kill fast and attack long range.. but without the mobility from light just defeats that purpose...

so i'd say 100pacheon/100fire/100light or 100pacheon/100fire/80light/20ice.... just because a lot of people go this build doesn't mean it's boring or bad.. it's the best choice, thats why most people do it.... it all bepends on how well you are farmed. and a botting game like sro is all depended on your gears..

First of all, it's not 80% snow shield, it's 60% maxed at 100. Then, about the rest you said you are completely wrong. Yes, a pure STR wouldn't be able to maintain itself with the MP consumption of a 60% snow shield, but wait, who said you needed to max snow shield? Why don't you simply level the first book of snow shield so you get the 20% snow shield, which is the recommended one?
Then, cold gives you a lot of physical defense, ice wall, cold imbue and freezing/frostbiting skills. It's nowhere near useless, and it'll absolutely not harm you at all. Now, I'm not saying cold is better than lightning, I'm just stating it IS useful, as lightning is. Lightning gives you basically moving speed and mobility. It's up to you to choose what you'll prefer, what benefits the most your playing style.

Can't argue against this as it's mainly your opinion.

yeah I know but I use Ice imbue and Fire imbue and sometimes I buy speed drugs.

Go for 100 Pach/Fire/Cold. You get phy/mag def, phy attk pwr, and snow shield. If you like PvP, then you can use Cold imbue to freeze or slow down your opponent and if you're going against a str-based char, put up Fire Wall so he/she cant Stun, KD, or KB you. And for PvE I'd use Fire imbue cuz it deals that little extra dmg that you might need, and it can burn the enemy which can also help kill faster. I've seen this build in action (a Lv93 - this guy isn't even FuFa) and he destroys just about everything that comes his way. Imo it's the best bower build.. Strong against mag and phy attacks, has snow shield, and deals some damn good dmg. The only downfall is no speed.. and if you really need it go buy some Typhoon Drugs.

the thing about ice imbue is that it can be the deadliest weapon to people who aren't immune to it.. but to people who are.. it's basically useless and too weak... thats how i see it.. and if you look it it... too many people are immune to it.. and only 5% and 25% probability.... if you really want the phy def. by getting 100ice then i'd rather go with a blader...... not bow..

but if you are patient enough to run around the whole map of silkroad without grasswalk then be my guest.... or if you have enough gold to buy the drug all the time...... then hells forget about light... it's a sp hungry tree...

Force is still a good option for this cap people!

There are less ppl immune to ice at this cap cos many nukers have lost their 30 fire. And anyway, there is very little damage difference between cold and fire imbue for a pure str.

And no grass walk isn't tht bad once u get use to it. I'm patient enuf to do a little walking, and mostly use horsies for long distances. Only problem is those antelopes kill my horsie a lot.
