in the char builder (bobtheveg one) you can check your lvl and
points up to now and then up your lvl to 70 or 80 to see how
many points you need to put in str or int to get the right balance.

i see that you are pure str up to now. that is definitly also a good
build for a bowman.

here is the build when you are 80 with all int from now on:
http://bobtheveg.dyndns.org/SRO/Char_Bu ... file=27097

if you add int from now on and ONLY int you will have a balance of

72:66 str:int on 70 and 69:70 str:int on 80.

so, if you plan on going all the way to the cap, you can end up 70:70
balance on the later levels, and until then, because you are str based,
you will definitly not have a bad build. pure str and str hybrid bowmen
have proven to be good.

just check it out for yourself. conclusion is that you CAN end up as a
70:70 hybrid and 80:80 with the right str and int on your gear on high
levels. :)

Well, I'm also building a 70/70 build, but I'm not sure if it's even gonna be a very good build. Pure str bowman and hybrid str are proven to be good, but 70/70 aren't really in favor of most people. I'm just gonna build the 70/70 for fun, because I think it's a really fun build to play with and very versatile...

there has been at least 1 70/70 archer proven very very strong. liquidsmooth
actually made a thread about his build with the whole build explained, but has
deleted his build post because he was only getting flamed by pure builds of
somewhat smallminded people (not all of them!) that kept on saying it was
impossible that a build, different than theirs, could be as good as theirs or
even better.

i think 70/70 can be very strong. ive seen the screens liquid posted and all of
em were without uber gear.

I also think that it can be strong, but that all depends on how you use the skills and how well you're tactic is. As I already said, it's probably one of the most versatile builds, but without the right tactic also one of the weakest...

Is that gold buyer talk?
I don't understand?

If you buy good gear at a good price then chances are you will sell it for a higher price when you are done.
Yeah if you do alchemy to gear you wont get your money back when you sell it, but just buy some gear with some good blues allready there.

Good gear allows you to grind faster > level faster> do better in jobbing/pvp.

Why wouldn't you want good gear at all levels?

*EDIT*
How do you plan to afford good gear at 60+.
The way most people do it is sell alchemy to high levels, and buy low sell high.

*edit*
Where is this info on liquid Smooth? I am very interested in his build.
lvl 65 4gap 84:84 bow inactive.

Str heavy hybrid, not 70:70 (Int hybrid)

I still havent seen this 70:70 build proven by anyone. Im eager to see it though. I honestly dont think its all its cracked up to be but unless someone takes it to cap and does some testing, we just dont know.

I believe that guy LiquidSmooth's post has been deleted, or at least the information on the build. It was here on the forum, but when you search for the author LiquidSmooth you can find the topic about the archer, but the first post says that he doesn't post anymore...

Just go find his "OMG IM THE GREATEST" thread and look at his HP\MP stats. He is nowhere near 70:70

i dont get it. whats this about gooldbuyer talk?
some ppl like to spend a long time on getting good equips and having
an easy time leveling and grinding, others like to spend more time grinding
and get their good gear at a higher level. this can work fine, especially
since SaveMe isnt really into pvp.

this is okay, but eventually you will probably have to resell anyways..
high levels i know pimp out blue or sox gear just to sell it for more money.
a friend of mine had a spear worth 10kk-ish, alchemied the magic atk i
think and was able to sell it for 30kk. thats how you get the big bucks.

@glavie about liquids build.. he deleted it from his topic. all i know is that
its a 70/70 hybrid bow. maybe worth to send him a pm if you are really
interested.

i believe there is a comment about it one or two pages later, something like:

"wow you show us that 70/70 does own!"

i think i quoted that pic somewhere too.

70:70 = Int Hybrid = More MP than HP

Both of them, liquid and mike, have more HP than MP which = Str Hybrid =\= 70:70

lol, ive been scrambling to find backup for what i said. I know i read it, but just wanted to show.

Quote from the infamous 70:70 thread

I.WANNA.BE.MADE wrote:Image

made with character build applet : http://bobtheveg.dyndns.org/SRO/Char_Build_Applet/

phy. balance : 81 % mag. balance : 82%

the - 90 stat points are the attributs of equipment

str : 221 int : 254 --> so it isnt 1:1 hybrid


So this would be the "ideal" 70:70 build with gear to bring it to roughly 80:80.

Mikes ss:

liquids ss:

Both Hybrid Str's though it looks like Mike is more balanced where liquid has more str

mmmm, cookiez :D

It was part of a great confusion i believe. Jadekiss came and told everyone about the "greatest bow build" then some hybrid bowers started popping up and people just grouped them together i guess. I really dont know.

Still to this day though, i havent seen the 70:70 build proven but like i said earlier, am eager to. I think the closest we have at the moment is Tomitor with his 1:1. He has some impressive damage also.

This is what we need the inter-server PVP arena for :P

thats how 80:80 works. but i just heard from ellisd that the ones who posted
their 70:70 builds have too much hp compared to mp to be a 70:70. they
have more physical than magical balance.

im like so confuse right now lol.

cin

Post by cin »

dont be. just keep on adding int from now on. the 2 hybrids that i posted
about werent 70:70 but were str hybrid bowmen. they were nonetheless
very strong. just add int from here and you will be fine as a hybrid. in the
meantime we can find out what builds the other 2 were by putting those
stats in the char builder.

either you do that and end up like the 2 that been posted and that do good
damage, or stay a pure str. but id go for the str hybrid. they also have more
mp which may come in useful with some of the new skills.

I'm not sure if Cin's right, TBH, but that's only because I've never had that much experience with Hybrid Bowmen before.
Sounds right, though, from what I DO know.

And besides, Cin is almost, almost ALWAYS right. 99.99%.
Except for like, this thread:
http://www.silkroadforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=43555
:P

So when he talks, pay attention to him, because chances are, he's giving you good advice. So don't be confused. :P

Hi guys, as posten before I'm starting the 70/70 build. But I was wondering. With the 70/70 you would do the same physical as magical damage (except offcourse for the differences in skills).

So if would go 1int:1str instead, this would leaves me having more powerful str attack than magical attacks?

The thing is, I want to get both physical and magical the same (if you get my point), but I'm wondering in which case that would turn out.

So 1:1 (int/str) or 70/70 (mag% and phys%)
