Str Bow vs Int Bow

Novability · **Joined:** Sep 2011 **Posts:** 21 **Location:**

Ok, so what should I go with? A full str bow, full int bow, or a hybrid bow? I'm leaning towards the full str bow so I don't get 1hit by all the champion mobs or those ones that get a lucky crit on me all the time. For whichever one you think would be good, what should the build be?
Thanks for taking the time to read and answer this, I really appreciate it!

Str bow is the best/easiest option.

Hmm....
Champion mobs doesnt kill full ints in 1 hit.
Full str doesnt always win in pvp. (vs full int bow that is)

Nukes are fun. Pach doesnt have that many AOE skills.

Normal str bows doesnt work anymore in my opinion, the dmg is just too low(even with crits), u should do force bow or int bow, hybrid, anything.

Full int bow hits hard, even though you don't get an hp or br increase, you got kb. Btw, I've never seen someone so concerned with grinding... It's usually pvp or uniques... Just put all of the effort of figuring out what to do into getting a better set for your spear nuker, or go to lower level mobs so you can kill faster without having to worry. It's not like you're botting, if you think a champion will 1 hit you, don't go near it....

My hybrit str bow char is really old.I created it in 2006 so i had no idea what i was doing.Anyways i gaved 22 int more instead of str(not lvl totally 22 int).I started game again and made this char lvl 111.I made some str int +3 to job items.I dont know why but char really really has good damage and tank.

Yeah thats what I was thinking. If hybrid works for spears, why cant it work for bows? Youd have pretty good damage from the int, but still have most of the tanking skills of str.

Pure int bow can be a lot of fun for grinding and also group battles if the members of your group buffs you. Pure int bow used to be the worse build possible but since the introduction of euros that build isn't so bad anymore. It's only draw back is PvP where it still sucks.

I'd would go for at least an int hybrid bow where I'd have some measure of survivability.
