Chinese bow build

[Rhamnusia]

Ok i heart alot of things about chinese bowers.
Some people say that full str is the best, others say 70/70 hybrid is the best.

So sinds im farming a chinese bower i want to know what i should do with my build.

I realy like the tought of a hybride bower becouse lots of people say that bow is a hybrid weapon. (cuz u have spear/glaive and sword/blade for int/str chars)

Also i like str builds cuz they have lots more HP and do higher crits.

Pleas give me some advise about what bow build you think is best i pvp, jobbing, fortresswar (i dont realy care about pve)

thx already

Str Bower: Lots of HP, strong Crits, average good Build for anything

Hybrid Bower: Higher SnowShield but less HP (i guess this kinda balances itself, you can tank with snow more, but you do have less HP) .. i've encountered a few Hybrid Bowers which said they are fine with this build .. you know, for everyone their chars is the best

Full Int or 9:1 Bower: Low HP, higher Snow, better average damage, nice for Uniques and Mobs at all but many ppl say Full Int Bowers suck badass at PvP ..

what does 70:70 mean -.-? anyway make up your mind if you want to have either fire + light( Pure Str ) or Light + Cold (Full Int / Hybrid Int). both are good.

70/70 is the balance when you put your Stat points. The char should have naked without anything worn, a balance of 70 / 70.

if you make a 70/70 bower your most imporant skill will be the strong bow series!!!
the rest won´t make enough damage but the strong bow pwnes everything :P

the best and balanced way to skill a bower is full str pacheon100/fire100/ice100

in 105 cap the fire ice combo will pwn :P

I really like the Pure Str Bower build most because of this much nice CRITS and you have enought HP to tank every unique on your own!

My recommend if you want to have a special build: I have a bower 9STR: 1INT O.o You think that's ****? I can just say it makes very nice damage und only a little bit fewer HP!

force/pach/fire ftw lol, force debuffs pwn in 110 cap, especially the one which stuns lol

Well, int bowers still have higher crits, and with snow shield they can tank uniques to ^^. though i like str bowers cuz i hate depending on snow shield.

LoLLLL....
Int bow got higher crits?
Wake up! xD

[Rhamnusia]

seems like most of you people thing full str is better so ima make a full str bower^^

If the exp rate in sro was a bit higher i would have tryed some other builds like the 9str:1int or the 70/70.

Thx all for your help <3

*** FROM EXPERIENCE *** (To 100 - NOT to 105)

Neither of them builds is the best bower build...

The best build for me was (and ive tried 70/70, pure str, pure int, 2/1 - ye i love the bow ) for 100 i got to level 90 PURE STR then last 10 levels of INT.

With 105 cap... i say go to 92 or so PURE STR then go PURE INT after.

Skills?
100 i did fire/pach 100, light 80 cold 20
105 i WOULD do pach / fire 105 / cold 20 - rest in light cba to do maths

20 cold for snow shield, the extra mana will mean you can maintain it, especially if you decide to use garment which i would ALSO SUGGEST you do, as garment is most suitable for this build (ALSO tested armour / protector with this build)

My infomation on this is from 100 CAP, NOT 105 CAP, although I think this build would still be best...

DONT Flame If You HAVENT Even Tried This Build, It Is The Best From My Experience...

Hope I Helped

I had the same decision to make :P I also choose the full str but im not sure what i have to skill because i'm not expirienced in playing full str bows.

[Guttis]

screw pure str bow. trust me its not funny att all. only high crit dmg thats all. sucks againts nukers and int chars. 70/70 good str good int good against both. and crit is lower but dmg is better than FULL STR. And go 110 pach 100 fire 80 cold 30 light best bow build!
