Hey guys,

I've been thinking about changing from glave to bow, personally I think bow outperforms glave, it crits more and does good damage even without crits, and with the knockback that works like 90% of the time I think it can tank just as well if not better.

So with all that said, I was wondering if anyone would be so kind as to inform me of what skills a bower should be learning (mainly for pvp, but pve is also helpful right now). Don't need any in depth detail, a simple list will suffice, just so I can get an idea of how much sp I will need.

Thanks!

mainly for pvp, you should go
anti devil series,
arrow combo, berserker arrow
and strong bow.

I guess i'll want hawk summon, dragon soul arrow, and mind concentration as well..what about autumn wind, sounds more like a pve skill?

Thanks for the help.

Believe me pure str bow does shit dmg without crits. Glaive got more phy and mag attack.
But DPS of bow is higher if u take the crits in account.

Good to know, I just find that bow players win more often then not vs my pure str glave (same lvl).

The damage of a pure str bower isnt shitty, well it is with just npc gear. My level 80 bower had a +4/+5 set and did good damage.

Autumm wind is usefull in pvp also. Strong bow and knockback are the main attacks, besides that I use anti-devil and autumm wind. I hardly use berserker arrow besides as opening in a fight or after stun/knockback. It has the longest load time.

Seeing anti-devil is IMO only usefull when it crits, autumm wind flame is a sure way of putting in that damage that just might finish a fight.

thats why i changed to glavie. i think strong bow has better dmg though. in my hybrid bowman account in persia, it hits 2k on heycheons with strong bow and it not even STR.
i dont think glavie has higher crit than bow, it just happens to get a crit most of the time (with anti-devil series.)
@ HertaJan: i had a lvl 21 +1 bow in odin and i was lvl 22 i had to use anti-devil+atumn wind+arrow combo to kill a white tiger shock: . they were all maxed at 21.

on topic: get Anti Devil, Berserker arrow, Strong bow, and Arrow Combo. get autumn wind if u like to mob-grind.
