Well I already saw your thread in Character Skills but ill just copy and paste what I said here..

Well
Garment's Pros: More Speed, Less Mp consumption , more mag defense

Protector Pros: More Phys/Mag defense...its good against both mag and phys attacks..and it has like speed and mp consumption bonus...but a little less than garment I think.

Garments' Cons: You wont have alot of phys defense or as much as you would get from say prot ...and Warrior's and Rogues are really gonna beat you down to a pulp..im not saying Str in garment suck...im just simply saying their attacks are all phys based and your garm set isnt gonna hold up.

Protector' Cons: Your gonna take more mag dmg from your opponent cause you lack the extra mag defense you get from Garment...but you get a even middle mix of both phys and mag defense from them...also less speed and less mp consumption.

I have protector for my lvl 99 glavier and I love it...I do fine against mag based chars (Firewall, Bloody Ghost Storm, and snow)
and I do really good against str chars aswell. In the end it all comes down to your personal preference really...Do you want a balanced out defense or do you want more mag defense. Also with bowers Prot is really good against mag builds cause you can KB, Firewall , Strong bow , Anti-Devil bow, KB , Firewall etc.... and you wont need that extra mag defense from garment

Thats true, but how do you think i would play against spear nukers? s/s nukers are easy their attacks are slowers and do less damage so i can recover with kb and fire wall, but spear nukers hit really hard. Like one stun i might be dead?

You must be fighting some awful s/s if they are just nuking you, at least that's what I'm getting from what you said.

But, I would go garms since you are pure str.

lol yeah...he musta been grinding really hard like 24/7 and sweating in front of his pc all day n night to not pay attention to pvping and stall networks when repotting in town :P

anyways, for bow go protector - you got jackass defense against physical...
2 x kb's should be enough defense against nukers anyways.
Who's this up-herself-biaaatch I tell ya???

You must never pvp. s/s use bicheon skills to get bleed and diversion on you, then nuke, kd to regain hp. Full force nukers are fail.

I always used Prot for my bow. Bow attacks are damn strong - and you can usually take out anyone who could do any big damage to you from a good range. Never really had any problems - except from nukers much higher level (5-10+, or next weapon degree) than me.

@ max level, facing higher than you people ... doesn't happen. :)

( is that the max now? o.O - cuz I bailed right after the cap was moved up from 70. )
