Bow discusion

[cedevita]

Hello,

I'm playing a full str bow and I'm 9D atm. Since today I was really strict: full str, fire imbue, attack rate hawk, no need for mind bow series etc.

But now I started thinking about making something more interesting and PvE more effective. So my idea is to start using mind bow series to lure mobs, than lightning imbue would be very efficient since transfering to other mobs, and to make a little bit of hybrid to get more mag dmg for the imbue and higher average dmg since bow have more mag power than physical. With more int I would also be able to use higher lvl. snow shield which I would need since mind bow series would lure many mobs. Ofcourse I'm avared that critical dmg will bi ruined with int stats which will also make Anti devil bow series less effective. But still, overall I believe it should work fine...actually I believe it would be better since more AoE dmg and higher average dmg even without critical.

Also since at lvl. 120 there is Fire hawk with attack rate and phy. dmg I wonder if it's worth it to skill attack rate bird becouse I will need other one to level up to get this skill. It's kinda waste of sp untill than. I'm not sure what kind of loss it would be untill lvl 120

Anyway, it's just and idea and I would be really happy to get your opinion, ideas and experiences from the past. Feel free to make your opinion and arguments :P

Have a nice day

The Idea isnot bad, but in my history i had an 1:7 and 50/50 bow.
At the beginning it is very effectiv, but only until level 101. Than it sucks .
In my opinion stay full str bow and search good party. (Best Way )

So your suggestion for int is no. Thank you for sharing your experience :P

But what about lightning imbue, hawk and Mind bow series?

Thank you very much for advice

If u are solo botting, mind bow series and lighning imblue coulde help u to level up faster.
But at 90+, u really need party and than u need first of all strong bow, devil arrow and Devil Bow Series. Hawks are secondary, i think for leveling, not really important.

After Level 105 (Job Cave/Farming), u could think about things like mind bow or lightning imblue, than u have enough sp and its no problem. But until level 105, try to skill only the important skills.
