A new breed of Hybrid Vs. Pure STr

darkblazer1 · Post by **darkblazer1** » Fri Jul 27, 2007 8:29 pm

After reading this topic:

http://www.silkroadforums.com/viewtopic ... sc&start=0

I have put some thought into it and agree with jade that a hybrid 70:70 phy and mag % would be good. Im at lvl 32 and currently pure str bow. I need some advice on if I should start to put some points into int to make it 70:70, or if I should just continue my pure str build. Also when the topic above was made, I dont think it was during anytime near the release date of euro. So the new kd that bow would have, wasnt in mind. So do you guys think I should do the build or not? Thx for ur info.

If you're gonna go for ti, start now, then u have time to make up for mistakes u make in the build....

Sigh .. why didn't you ask in that thread? So many people making useless threads.

Did euro make the little bits of brains some people have left completely decay ?

um because that thread has 899 posts and mine would be near the end... I dont think anyone will read all 50 pages or something and get back to me about it. Thx for the advice to dragon.

Go ahead it's a nice break from pure str, I know a few good bowers that are 70:70 and pure str, If you want to stand out and go for it.

These are how my stats currently look, can someone tell me how exactly I would start getting it to 70:70.

darkblazer1 · Post by **darkblazer1** » Fri Jul 27, 2007 10:17 pm

srry bout that white.. idk y its there, and i dont know how to edit it lol.

John_Doe · Post by **John_Doe** » Fri Jul 27, 2007 10:24 pm

umm keep adding to int until it says 70:70 phy/mag balance?

darkblazer1 · Post by **darkblazer1** » Sat Jul 28, 2007 1:13 pm

oh ok.. and then how would I maintain it 70:70, because as far as I see u get 3 arrange points, so one would get more then the other rite?

you obviously did that with paint...go into paint...paste the pic and the click anywhere (not on the pic) then you can go to the lower right corner and move that thing (the white) up till it matches your pic/screen w/ ever

Go read the other topic too .. 70/70 IS NOT THE ONLY HYBRID possibility for Bow ...

darkblazer1 · Post by **darkblazer1** » Sat Jul 28, 2007 3:36 pm

nope it is not in my opinion .. and thats the problem .. people know only 2 posibilities for bow which makes sense .. Pure Str and 70/70 ... but 5str 1ints 5:1 build is in MY opinion the best option .. well whatever ^^ try out

darkblazer1 · Post by **darkblazer1** » Sat Jul 28, 2007 5:16 pm

wait 5:1, ive never heard of that one. Also with the 70:70 build, would my nukes do a fair amount of damage? cuz then I could easily do a quick strong bow and nuke, and theyd be finished. And if not, just finish em off with an arrow combo.

Rofl, if only killing people was that easy :roll:

actaully it kind of is lol. The only build I have problems with is bladers, cuz they always tank and kd. Sometimes glavie because there stun is annoying. But now with the new update at higher lvls I could easily do 5 arrow combo, which would kd them. And now strong bow is just as fast as anti devil, so I would 5 arrow( kd) strong bow, and then nuke. or explosion arrow.

that would work against a euro character, but against a chinese character with fairly good armor, theyll be back up at max hp while you summon arrow attacks.

It would so not, a fully geared melee user with a cleric healing wouldn't feel those arrows. No smart European goes out alone.

if your mag balance is that low nukes wont do a whole lot , in fact the bow skills may not do much either, there's such a long charge time for each, if your damage is that low than gg trying to kill. bow is meant to kill with big powerful shot and crit, but thats why it's slow. 70:70 build may be the best hybrid build , but whatevr, it's like the winner of an ugly chick contest

Stay pure str. You wont like getting 1 hit ko'ed. Hybrid crits are horrible. Bow is a crit build.

As soon as i get to my comp ill post some stats. Bower/ LVL 45 161/164 str and int. Made this build when i started on red sea, and it pwns. Currently farming. Ill have a pic in highest damage contest tonight. But ya to answer your question go 70:70, It makes grinding a breeze.

darkblazer1 · Post by **darkblazer1** » Sun Jul 29, 2007 1:59 pm

Srry about posting in the wrong section, ive been waiting to expect this topic to get moved my a mod but it hasnt. Also Im getting a bit confused. Some people are saying it sucks, others saying its good. To make it easier, which build in your opinions is the best in pvp vs glaviers and bladers,(preferably pure str), and in pve. If someone who has this build can post there stats. It would be great. Take a ss like I did and post it. I would like to compare it. Also post your damage that you do.

why don't he tries to crit a player instead of mangyangs? coz i doubt it will be as high.

btw, 70:70 archers, like tomiotar does insane damage but have pity hp which will suck bad in pvp since pacheon has no castle shield/fanstorm.

PURE STR BOW FTW

OMG
what is the point of the hybrid bow in pvp????? it cant do anything.
nukers arent even able to kill effectively with the mana shield on, so a hybrid bow is supposed to be able to???? okay so you crit hardest on a neutral monster under zerk greaaaat you're still not gonna get past the mana shield's 2 minutes that the other opponent should have (even pure str should have 20% mana shield on in a 1v1 pvp), and when its over and your mana shield runs out you will just die. if you wanna have fun with monsters then great, be my guest.
