Go for bow :) If that's what you like then go for it.

If your pure str: Pacheon 100 Fire 100 Light 80 Ice 20 would be the best :D

Good luck :P

to me: go for bow if you dont have a pleveler, go for blader if have a plvler (someone help you plvl)

and..
blader vs bower - blader is pretty strong this cap, but bow is pretty good too, just that you gotta do a lot more works compare to blader, so if you are good with like tactics and stuff, like use firewall, when to run, when to kb, when to switch to shield... etc, then you have better chance of killing the blader :)
Tips:
1.Don't underestimate Ice Wall and Fire Wall series.
2.Every build has at least one weak point, observe it and counter it.
3.Your build has at least one weak point, recognize it and minimize it.

first: choose the build that you like the best don't let other people say what you build you should choose :wink:

If your looking for a pure pvp build go blade. They have so many tank ability and they rock with their 73 and 100 chain (status like division, fear, dull, etc.) But they are slow to grind :banghead:
Bow are pretty good in pvp and very good in pve and with their double KB they can knock you back till they are out of arrows :twisted: and the 98 arrow is very nice

Here are some pros and cons of bladers and archers.
Note: I may not get all of them since I don't have too much experience with them.

Blader
Pros:
Has sheild (can block and gives extra defense...and stats when you pimp it)
Good at tanking
Chains give impotent,bleed,division,fear,stun and dull at high lvls
Can kd the enemy and do a quad stab
Great at pvp

Cons:
Not the highest attack
Not that good at pve


Archer
Pros:
Relies on crits
2 kb skills at 100
Good at both pvp and pve (although I would say a little better at pve)
Has strongest chinese attack (strong bow)
High atk rating

Cons:
No skills in wep tree to increase suvivability
Need arrows
Did I say you need arrows?

These are some highlights I could probably think of more pros and cons after watching some pvp vids but these are the basics.

bow they can't touch you with double kb's. and with the crits you can kill anyone. but i guess you can with bicheon too. carrying arrows is not a big deal, especially when ur in a pt with a cleric and bard. i carry 100 hp / 100 mp / 100 pills / 7k arrows. even if you dont have a pt, you'r enot gonna get hit much. Also remember, that FW is mainly based on range attacks. With a bower you'l actually get to kill people when you're trying to destroy the barriers and stuff whereas with the blader you'll be destroying.

I switched from blader to bower and it is the best decision I've made. Oh, and ir you like uniques, my friends 94 bower outdamged my other friends 100 blader at shaitan and got the kill.

range is overrated, since we are in the age of sprint assault.
and ghostwalk makes up for that too.

he has ghost walk too

so ghost walk + range + 2xKB + snow shield

well i think the kb are kind of over rated... here's how i beat it with a 91bich/91cold/91light level 99 full int build... ice wall, nuke, if get kb -> gwalk to them, try to kd with ur kd skills, use kd stab(just 1 skill), icewall right when stab done -> nuke, keep repeating it.. if they gwalk away... gwalk follow them... keep doing it, and of course make good use of their casting time... it seem kinda long for them to cast the strong bow skill... i haven't seen any bower that can give me a hard time... but i must have snowshield on or else i die :P but that's how full int rollz

this is just to give you another thought about bowie build :)

KK thx for replies.
I will go bow, 100 pach 100 fire 80 light 20 cold. I thought 100 pach 100 fire 100 cold but this game without speed is really tired and speed drugs re very expensive.
Now I need some tactics to kill every build, I think firewall is my best friend at PVP to prevent KD + KB, give me some tips please.

Thx :love:

Go archer, bladers are pain in the azz for lvling up. Bowers are one of the best hunters.

It really does, but costs much sp...Bonuses from 80light20cold are mediocre and 100heuskal>80light20cold. U can stun,dull,kb,kb,kb,kb,kb,stun. If the enemy come close to u switch to glavie and attack.glavie attacks with that increased attack rating from blue hawk are pain in the ass. Did I mention the hp increase bonus?
