Good all around, good speed/mobility with 20% snow shield which is enough and helps you tank a lot. Better at jobbing/group pvping in general.

#2: 100 pacheon,light,cold
As a pure STR, I'd never recommend going for this one.

#3: 100 fire/pacheon 50 cold,50 light
Don't really think this is a good option, it gets a very small increase in physical defense but sacrifices a good amount of speed/mobility from lightning, no point really in doing this.

#4: 100pacheon,fire,cold
Excellent defense, but very limited speed and mobility. Better at 1vs1 pvping in general.

Make your choice, it's completely up to you.

100 fire and pacheon is must. Remember that.

As long as it's a pure STR, yes, absolutely.

EDIT: Well, actually, as a pure STR, we should say high fire is a must, but it doesn't absolutely need to be maxed.

100 bow/fire 60 cold 40 light.

84 def buff, 1st book snow shield, 10% mag increase, 41 parry increase, speed at 47%, (67% with garments), and 12m phantom walk. All for under 30K sp. Great bargain.

the fire passive is important the imbue not so much, with 100 ice and 100 fire could get along just fine with ice imbue good for grinding and pvp vs non immune people, as long as you have the dmg increase passive/ buff from fire the different imbue is negligible dmg but a nice effect.

#5: 100pacheon/fire/force
Low speed (well none, but speed pots/scrolls ftw) and not good against cleric (subbed) chars. But it's strong 1 on 1.

Make your choice, it's completely up to you.

If you want one of the first three I would take number one though.

84 def buff... that is ALOT for lv.100, seriously.

Sarcasm on this forum, you must be kidding me.

I know 84 def buff is minimal but it is better than 100 light which offers 0 deff buff and is an sp hog. Or 80 light 20 cold, how much def buff do you get with that, less than half of 84 I'm sure. (Can't get to mmosite atm, I'm at work, shhhhhhh)

My mama always said, "If you don’t have anything nice to say to someone, then don’t say anything." (This is going in my sig)

The 20 cold there is not for physical defense, it is for the 20% snow shield.

@ blahblahblah
I just check MMO site for you:
Level 60 ice offers you 84 phy def. Not counting Snow shield.
Level 20 ice offers you 10 phy def. Not counting snow shield.

But like raphaell666 said:

Not sure.
iMaHo Light isnt't that great at all for a bower...
If the mastery total level stays @ 300 then force / fire / peach will be useless @ 110 gap ...
=(

bows are destined to be 80 light, 20 ice that is just all bow is about, there are just to many thread like this already, force is good for cap 100 but at max cap lv120 it doesn't seem so good unless JM decide to put imbue in force tree, and some ppl might say take ice to tank in pvp, i suggest u make a blader if u like to tank.
So the only build that can last u to the end of the game is light sub for bow.

Weal I voted 1`st option...because that is the build I will do at lvl 100 too...Why? because you need the light to be a good archer(you need speed)...and to be honest, I would choose more speed, teleport distance and parry ratio than 70 defence(wich cold gives you at lvl 60)...At lvl 100, that 70 defence is almost usless, and if you would know how to play your char, you wouldn`t even notice the lost defence wich cold would have given you...You have high crits, at 100 with a good bow you will be godly at pvp...and at it is said: The best defence is the atack;)

Bow pvp will last infinite time at 100 cap. If u want to kill go force/fire/pacheon. From these builds 80light20cold is teh best.

HBblade · **Posted:** Mon Apr 06, 2009 5:48 am

y fear str chars if ur a pure str char urself? no point in 100ice other than extra farming & a tank that will get destroyed when every1 converges on u & u can't run away fast enough

This is your opinion. There are points in going for cold, as there are points in going for lightning. It's all up to what will benefit the most one's playing style.

Lol man, you are so noob...At lvl 100 as an archer you have anti devil with 40 crit increase....strong bow with 15 crit increase....And you say that pvp will last for ever? Lol, an archer at lvl 100 with crit 10 on bow will pwn a lot, 2-3 crits and a full str char is dead:) Of course, he can die easy too, but pvp won`t last forever, trust me: archers at lvl 100 can end very quick a pvp;)

U cant kill glavie in 2 crits...And if u make 2 skills glavie will be closer enough to attack u.. U are stunned = u are dead.

Terrible waste of sp for nearly nothing...80 Light > 100 Light

anomaly310 · **Posted:** Wed Apr 22, 2009 11:58 pm

Im about done farming my bower and had the same predicament. Honestly save the sp and do 80light/20cold because the outrageous expense for 80===>100 in light is far from worth it.
