2nd book combo for heuksal :P

ok OT:
well i find it very useless in younger lvl's since they dont have KB and it consumes a lot of arrows, but still when you have your imbue running at least you could cast that and finish a mob or player on a quicker time :)
As i ended the last chapter of my past never forgotten true love...
... a new one begins :)
I'm begging to find a way on how to connect with someone new...
....somehow this new Chapter will be quite an experience. :)

completely useful.
it's probably my most important skill.

i could make a video of the 10,000 uses of it, but im too lazy.
But yeah, get it. Though if you don't think you will ever get to 73, u can leave it out and substitute the autumn wind series to replace it.

IMO the first, second, and third books seem pretty useless, for grinding and for PvP. For grinding it just clogs up your inventory, unless you can afford to buy 10,000 stacks, and as for PvP, this skill is fast, but weak. By the time you've fired the 1, 2, 3, 4 arrows, the opponent would have potted over it. After saying that, the forth book is one of the best bow skills for PvP (Still bad for grinding because of the insane amount of arrows used) mainly because of the KB.

i find it the most useful jobbing when someones trying to run away from u.

shoot those 5 arrows from far away and they instantly stop running lol. It allows u and ur teammates to catch up and kill people.

not important until 73. But u need combo maxed to get that lvl 73 knockback 5arrow book.
at 52 it can easily be substituted with an autumn wind.

It's a shitty skill and is only used for KB. Autumn Wind or Mind Bow are 9001x better for follow up damage. Once you get the 2nd KB combo you can chain them and from then on they are no longer needed.

i DO NOT use it for grinding cuz it just wastes 5 arrows for low damage, it is good for pvping a nuker because it cancels out a nuke which is a major difference seeing as you can use it every other skill. Also like already said if someone is running away it stops them from moving for 3 seconds so you and others can catch up to them. Every once in a while i will accualy kill someone with the 5 arrow because 3 of the hits crit them for like 2k.

Overrated by anybody who doenst know how to play a bow or who doesnt play a bow.

As been said before, useless in grinding. Only usefull for KB in pvp, although you should know at the moment the other is halfway down his HP and you kb his ass he also is able to pot up.

Edit; Bow vs Bow with combo is so useless. I hate people using it, if another bower kbs me he actually has to WALK towards me, so the sole effect of the KB is taken away. Besides, I am able to pot right back up to full health in the time they KB me.

Only good for KB, and one more thing, if you crit 5 times, then maybe it's not so useless? :P

I am farmed now, and I do not use the KB in pvp. I only use it when somebody is running away or when I need to run away. Its utterly useless for dealing damage.

Knockback cancels skills too. As it's a damn fast skill you can counter nukes or strong bow. What is it if not useful?
