Pure Int Bow or Pure Str Bow

[imc00l]

Hi guys, I'm plaining on to make a pure int bow guy, but i have seen many guides say that pure str bow is better, and no one mention pure int bow is good , so i just wondering which is better to build, can u guys help me out and give me some advices to build

Pure str bow is better.

Pure str bow is better.

Thats basicly it.

Reason is Pure str + pacheons skills = Max damage a bow can do because his spells are based on phy.damage, like all the other weapon masterys.

If u wanted to be a bow with INT i recommend you use a hybrid 2 STR : 1 INT, because that would do 2 things. Give you damage from Pacheon skill but also raise your Imbunes and give you a decent Nuke. especially after the update, stun with bow + Nuke is definatly worth my time in thought.

A bow is a weapon whose damage is based on the critical. It can't deal great damage in short period of time, but with the new abilities it will deal good damage over time, with knock-back and stun.

A pure int bow, will probably deal bigger damage, but the bow isn't a magical weapon it's a hybrid weapon. So it's more important to survive and be able to do high critical, then to risk your life for a few more k's of damage.

2str/1int is the best bow build imo.

if effects immunity got fixed ... imo a pure int bow may not be that bad. focus on the bow skills that are not crit based. and those skills could be support to nukes. i'd try one.

Pure STR BOWS WAY BETTER

[HertogJan]

I am a pure str bow, and my believes in the pure str bow are huge.

However I've seen some hybrid bows doing nice out there. Int bow might work with the update, but the lack of hp and the lack of a shield will never make it a succesfull int build IMO.

Just be a pure str bow with good gear and you will be a top class =)

Int bow might work with the update ...

you got that right ... that's y i m keen to try 1 out when the skills updates come. for me, the main thing will be effect immunity. no freeze = no go for pure int bow.

2str/1int is the best bow build imo.

+1, by far the best.

2 Problems with pure INT bow

1. No shield for blocking
2. No extra Hp increase.

s/s or spear are the only chinese builds that should be INT based IMO.


Pure str bow is really good. My friend is a lvl 56 bower as of yesterday and is pretty decent.

to sum it all ... pure str bow cant go far wrong, hybrid bow if u know what u are doing, pure int bow ... not now ... but perhaps in future, depending on the skills upgrades/fixes.
