Best Bow Build?

BryaN · Post by **BryaN** » Mon Apr 16, 2007 2:37 pm

I want to start a sub char a Bow char.
I have some clues on what build is the best for it but I don't really know what is.
So could anyone give me his bow build? And tell me whats so good about it.
Either you make up one and discribe it or you tell your bow build of the char you already have.

Thx :wink:

full str bow and you can find builds in the other 50 bow build threads.

full str bow because your biggest adversary will be the glavie or blade which will probably be wearing garmet = pwned by the full str arrows more than a hybrids arrows.

Off topic. But pure str in garments dont have that amazing mag def.
So dont lower hybrid so much. Its true what u say. Phy does more dmg to ppl in garments. But non crits of a str bower are almost potable.

my mag def with 9 gap (lower fire buff) in ARMOR:

a pure str's mag def (higher fire buff than me) in GARMENTS:

Guess what: Mine is higher!

And if u gonna talk about bladers. Yes they do have higher mag def than me in garments but ...
They also (if they are not noob) have critical parry on their shield => lesser frequency crit => fill it in urself

check ur hp with this:

And if u gonna pvp definatly switch to garment. Or protector since ur ranged already (ur range is bigger than nuker). But garments is more advisable.

Dam straight.

I'd stick with classic ice though. Helps WAY more in pve, and most people aren't immune to ice. And in a later update, they'll make it impossible to be ice immune.
