 Post subject: Bow Build...help. =/

I'm a little 'stuck' on what to do with my character. I haven't been sure about how I was going to distribute HP and MP points...and now I have no idea what to do.

My char is a bow user and uses mostly ice skills...and some lightening skills. Currently I'm at level 46 and have 2949 HP and 3760 MP (I have 9 unused stat points...because I'm unsure about where to put them and didn't want to mess my char up further). I use a lot of pots. Unfortunately. x-x I'm not going to start over though- I like my character. I'm not looking for the best, I just want to have fun. But I don't want to mess up my build so much that I can't take on higher leveled mobs and I don't want to end up screwing myself over so that I end up not doing much damage and am not able to take a hit.

I would like to have more HP, so I guess I was thinking about maybe a 1:1 build...but I've heard those aren't very good. I like doing a good amount of damage, so should I keep going with more int...? Or maybe I should just put all point into str from here on out...? I'm just pretty much stuck on what to do, so I'd really like your suggestions. Thanks!

I'd buy item mall skill reallocation postions and get rid of bow and substitute spear, putting all points from now on into spear making a spear hybrid.

but thats just me.

Bow builds are better for str-based chars. Usually Pure Str, but since you don't want to start over, you can just keep adding str. Or just ask, "zexy" she knows all about bow builds or anything bow related.

Thanks /so/ much for the help. Could you tell I had no clue what I was doing? :?

What I /think/ I'm going to do is just up strength here on out and stop adding to int.

And I'd consider switching weapons if I didn't love being bow so much. But I do. xD And the Moon bows look so fricking cool. I must level and get one.

Thanks again for the help!

so, a fellow bow lover eh?
well, hybrid bows suck, but if u just want to enjoy the game, then id suggest goin all str for now on. keep the cold, bow skills(durr), and the lightning
i mean, there really is no "messed up" character in this game, its just that some builds are MILES ahead of others(quote from Fly!)
so go all out str from now on, u may suk in later pvp, but since your just here to have fun, then just go all str
btw, i like bows :D

I'd suggest what someone else said, go hybrid spear, or even hybrid sword. Hybrid swordsmen are hard to kill and do a lot more damage than is expected.

At the 80 cap, I'll be 50 points into str on my Int Heavy Hybrid. I can tank decently now, but the more hp the better. Plus, alchemy is a must for all builds now. Save your money while you can. Alchemy DESTROYS any that you may have.

Also, don't be nice and just give people things. You end up broke like me. :banghead:
Maybe I'll get some of it back though... 8th Degree SOS... I dunno.
