well, im thinking about farming a chinese character in the near future an my question is, can you tell me some pros and cons of both the blader and bower builds, thank you. :)

Blader
+ very high defense
- deals less damage, you'll have to work with division (combos)
- slow (mob-)killing, therefore hard to bot if you don't have your own pt

Bower
+ higher damage, crits
+ easy to bot solo, fast(er) mob killing

Both of them can be good pvp chars... however, as a blader you'll need a very good weapon (>= Rare) to be able to kill other STR builds.

Yea thats the main thing thats drawing me away from them but they are very cool tho.

so what do you think is more effective in group pvp?

group pvp i would reccomend from my personal experience , Nuker-swordshield-cold-light OR bow OR Blade (you will be the main tanker)

make a s/s fire/cold/biech full INT nuker
or a fire/ice/heusk full STR glavier :D
Blader is very strong...
(at D10+ :p )
but if your blader is 110+ with good set you have a damn good pvp char.
so you can make fire/ice/biech full str too ^^

yea, but i dont like glavies at all i think they are ugly lol....and nuker is cool but idk, i like str characters better...idk tho its a tough decision, id prefer bower or blader tho. thanks for the info about 110+ :). but i think i may go with full str bower.

glavie pwns :D

Why people even care about lvling problem? We have pts, we have bots, ok u will take some time longer but if thats the only case stopping its kinda stupid.
If you cant choose, level both! In later levels you will decide which one you like the best.

Create 2 chars, 1 blade, 1 bower == profittttttttttttt
