I've been using glaives since I've been playing sro.
glaives have been my favorite choose of weapons to use but I have been having seconds thoughts and am Pondering the thought of switching to bow.
Thus I have come here to ask what you guys views are and do you think there is any point in me switching?

any info would do but I'm more looking for the PROS vs CONS of both builds thx for your help.

bow seems so lame to me(not bad, lame) in PvP, you stand and shoot arrows, meh i like a build who looks hot in battle, thus the glavie.

I think bow is not doing so bad in pvp.. with the Strong Bow - Craft and 5 arrows combo... I think they still can do well in PVP.

archers get really good as they reach the 70's when dey get the 5 arrow combo and strong bow craft, kb+stun omg remind u of glaives? :D downside archers have less hp den glaives, thus less tanking abilities but archers have insane critical attacks+strong bow craft(350%) <-OMG 8)

Nah stay glavie, at cap 90 we are gonna get better skills and more power, cap 80 we got nothing, and bow got everything hehe. That mayb why u wanna jump ship. Cap 90 glaive will rock once again. We max emperor DMG plus 2 times for stun, and the next Ghost Spear..pluto is it? Ghost Spear is the greatest move in the game, speed, knock back, power and if it crits LOL

Glaive FTW

The only reason why i wanted to go bow is because of their range and its easier for them to get unique kills. Other than that Glaive ftw!

from my expeirence all pure STRs have problems killing each other since we are lvl 80 and using a lvl 72 weapon, unless you have SUN, then it doesnt matter what build you are, unless you messed up and made a STR hybrid

Stay Glaive, not worth all the skill editing just to get what you already have.

the ones that will rule at 90 cap will be blade/sword users (only talking about chinese tho) cause of the kd and stabs.
Glaviers will get just another ghost speat, anything special..
