In group battle, a full int Fire/Ice archer destroys. The nukes are off the chart, as are the actual archer skills. Though it is not the greatest in one on one PvP, it can win, but count on losing at least 75% of battles. Full Str Fire/Ice is pretty decent in one on one pvp, as well as group battles.
Both builds are made to serve as the heavy damage dealers in any combat situation, not so much to be the front line.

For group pvp I prefer pach/fire/force more than fire/cold since you can remove- and give debuffs, and also ress if no euro w/ cleric sub is available (or competent on when and who to ress).

The chance of running into a party without cleric (subbed) mastery is like 0.00001% You're right on the idiots that don't know how to party play though.

Fire/Ice fairs well in both, I personally prefer Force archers but then again I don't like group pvp.

well light does well in group pvp since bows excel in hit and run tactics.

but fire/ice does well for 1v1 and group if you wanna play it safe.

I have a 112 Light/Fire bower str that i changed from force to light. And i can tell you that i love it alot more.

There is a 112 BOW (fire/force) on EOS with a Legend +6 bow and the guy is owning everything at the moment, I am unsure of his build (hybird or pure) but my warrior is now full legend/rare and in pvp he critted me 54k and I only have 60k HP, his bow has 100% crit so he rapes so hard with crits.
