I had to LOL at the new Bow pwning skill

soxdrop · Post by **soxdrop** » Sun Jul 08, 2007 2:18 pm

strong bow is still too slow to be used in pvp imo, i got time to put on an ice wall or knock down twice before it gets fired

lollllllllllllllllllllll no you will be pressing your keys so rapidly trying to hit me that you will be stuck using your next skill and not have time to put up an ice wall. thats why half the time i phantom away from a glaive or blade they think oh you dont have range i can just use phantom to null that and they STILL RUN AFTER ME because theyre smashin their soul spear skill and the game automatically makes you run up to me to use it. gg

Scroll down to the bottom and look under the damage listings. What is this lvl 8 10% probability stuff? Maybe this series will end up being useful? O.o

A status effect. The skill probably will become useful.

The new blade chain has 2 status effects. One makes it so the person you're fighting takes more damage. The other makes it so the person you're fighting does less damage.

Oh cool. A str glaive with range.

Considering no one has posted a SS of the strongbow skill from KSRO I have a hard time believing the site. Esp. since their 5-arrow stats were wrong. As a bower, this skill looks way too overwhelming if the cast time is reduced and makes the other skills worthless. What Joymax should really do is enhance the lower books so its a bit more consistent. Right now bows don't stand a chance until these lvl70+ skills so the build loses its "fun" factor until you've grinded your life away to reach lvl70+.

EDIT: Compare the website's stats with the PK2 file shown here: http://www.janrique.com/~soda/SRF/ksro_70-90_skills.htm

The attack values for strongbow are off by one row. Looks like someone's been smoking while copying down values.

actually what about the 4 arrow combo? does it have knock back too?

Carry a shitload of arrows, expensive weapons (some how bows are more expensive than anything?), low crit on weapons (have you ever seen a bow with a crit higher than 10? VERY RARE), nukers taking advantage of our skills (yes I've seen them use Dragon Soul arrow in pvp to increase atk distance) and etc...

Oh yeah, and the worst of them all is the skills take forever to execute and while at that, a nuker comes steaks your kill and gets the loot.

dragon soul arrow doesnt have any effects on nukes whatsoever (no+attk distance)

Who said the skill time has been reduced anyway, I never heard of it, and ksro legend viideo looks the same as th rest.

all ksro vids you can watch have stronbow users only charge up for 2 seconds. plus it has that cool little "tail" thing behind the skill when its launched :roll:

Soul Spear Soul - Stun Probability 30%
Soul Spear Emperor - Stun Probability 15%
Soul Spear "....." - Stun Probability 10%

soul spear soul also got 2x 15% stun probability.

besides of that, i think int-based chars (hybrids included) will profit more from mana shield than full str chars. for example glaive. what do u want with mana shield, when u only got like 7k mana -.-. u wont have enough mp to cast ur spells and also it's going down pretty fast. but the best thing is to wait and test it.

The new skills of bow got stun and knock back and so on .. WHAT ABOUT THE ONES WE ALREADY HAVE ... can u make screenshots of them to see if they get knock back and so on too?

DarkJackal · Post by **DarkJackal** » Mon Jul 09, 2007 1:37 am

I can't those aren't my screenshots.

But I was wondering that too.

Thanks for the screenshots.

Now all they need to do is use a font that won't make the zeros look butt ugly in the international version.

will rogues get the same skills like bow users?

EllisD · Post by **EllisD** » Mon Jul 09, 2007 10:48 pm

Rogues will have their own skillset. If crossbow, i believe it has stun, kb, AND kd.

The bow skill that i am reaaally looking forward to is the umm..."Multi-directional" arrow, the one that goes completely different directions to attack multiple mobs. When grinding, i can see a lot of people cursing bowers for inadvertantly getting in on their kills. More exp\sp for meee !

Dont get me wrong, all the other skills are stellar! But i will opt to get this one first cause ive barely farmed for these extra skills at all (still 0 gapping to 80) and this skill should help quite a bit.

I dont really get how that skill is gonna work. It fires arrows to ur left, right, and to the enemy in front of u. The arrow that fires in front will surely hit, but what if there arent any monsters to ur left or right? What would those arrows do?

XenZei. · Post by **XenZei.** » Mon Jul 09, 2007 11:29 pm

Bow is certainly my favourite weapon. Always loved being a bow and now with the new skills it would be sweeter. However, im moving to Euro and not playing the chars character anymore. >.<

If i played the chinese chars, i would love to have light + bow skills in my bow char. Max speed + sexy bow skills = pwnage

I guess you all Bow users are freagging happy now. Arent you?
