You can do two things :
1. - continue with full int and change to s/s
- delevel pacheon
2. - make a 80:80 bow build
- your still low level , still can make 80:80

so keep Pacheon and Full int isnt an option o_O

P.S I wont respond for a while im going to bed =]

Of course you can keep being full int. People here on SRF should just stop being so narrow minded when it comes to builds.

Yes, at 41 it still is possible to go from full int to 80:80, but it will take a long while.

People are very narrow minded about Int Bows.

All I can say is that I have made it to 71 just fine as an Int Bow and am seriously looking forward to the high level Pacheon skills. I have fun with the build. Int Bows are very hard to KS because they hit hard, have long range, and are fast. That is an advantage for a legit in these dark ages of gold bot infestations.

Just relax, have fun, and don't worry so much about what other people think.

According to my knowledge, I'll say play it according to your preference and playstyle, else everyone is going to debate his/her build.

I say this preference/style stuff too, but honestly, an INT based bow has always made little sense to me for anything other than unique killing. Int bows can be great in unique killing (wind in aege, probably one of best players ever to play SRO, owned uniques from what I heard), but PvP, meh, good luck surviving against a hybrid sword. I mean, even STR bows suffer from their lack of survivability when they're knocked down... what will an INT bow do??

Well I have never been a fan of the caped 1v1 pvp outside of DW or Jangan or whatever. And I have a couple of lower level str builds to mess around with the caped pvp so I have tried it. It is just not much fun IMO. I should mention I have fought other Int builds and hybrids my level and beat them. But I really don't cape pvp enought to say this build is anything special at cape pvp.

And yes unique killing is fun with an Int Bow. Even more fun is jobbing. The Mind Bow and Explostion Arrow skills are very useful for a hunter or trader. And as an Int I can also use Lion Shout. Fighting in any team situation is fun too and I often play with a friend who is a blader. Our strength and weaknesses balance out.

i personally wouldnt do pure int bow coz ->

damage of nukes is nearly the same as s/s, but u have no extra defence from shield. pure int spear does more damage with its nukes. so why go int bow?

Because of the damage you can do with the BOW skills.

keep your full int with bow

when you are at lvl 32, swap to spear for ultimate power! Strongest hitting!
