Steong bow is the coolest move in the game but the slowest
beserker has a AOE good for dealing dmg in amonunts

Strongbow is kinda a joke skill later on. We make fun of bows that use it.

Strongbow is very strong but it is even slower than nuke. So when they are doing the strongbow, chances of being frozen and slowed is very high. Getting stunned or knockback can cancel their skill as well to annoy them.

You want to get the idea of "how slow?" If you have seen glaive soul spear, i estimate it to be twice as slow as that

but couldnt it be very usefull to sniper nukers in wars, in big wars the chance of being fokused and stunned etc is very low.

€: and what do you think of berserker arrow ?
should i just stay with anti devil and arrow combo ?

for me, i basically add every single skills in the bow tree, except the 4th skill (called something like autumn wind or wadever) anti devil is very useful and will be the skill that u will often use. strong bow is slow but its dmg is high. beserk is for area dmg. depend on situation, they can be useful in any ways. :roll:

i like the strong bow, sure its a long move, but it does great damage

I personally have both SB and zerker arrow. All my skills in the archer tree are maxed to lv 61 so I can farm when I am capped. zerker arrow is great in the caves when multiple mobs aggro you all at once. It also makes grinding faster because you deal damage to the mobs around you. If you have enough sp, get both. SB is useful to start off on a giant or a champ before it aggros on you. It also saves you more arrows if you use, say antidevil, zerker arrow and SB (wash and repeat), instead of your quad shot and antidevil alone or with either of zerker arrow or SB. To max out zerker arrow up to 61, it requires about 9k sp from start to finish.

yes strongbow is slow but it can be used well. it takes about 3.5 seconds to fire (alot!!) but is good in PVE for the first hit on a higher mob and such, not to mention its great for jobing (iif yuo ask me) depending who yuo are fighting and yuor lvl of course. but i often just use it to kill nukers while jobbing. and yes it isn't good at the end game because its so slow. the last book of bezerker (devil arrow) has the samei f not more dmg and i beleive it fires faster. not sure here cause its a 68 skill XD
