Why do people tell us not to go with pure int bow?

1. You need criticals. Being pure int would basically make your critical's power nonexistent.
2. You can't shoot nukes and arrows at the same time. Its either one or the other.
3. Equipping a bow does not give you any boost to your magical attack as a sword or glaive would.

Pure int Bowers are very strong but fragil...with imbune and anti devil with combo u can kill anything quickly but u wud have to be a War and P.vs.M build ONLY u will need blader tanking the person ur attking so they wont 1 shot u but beleive my i can see a pure int bower owning and theres no better build against monsters ive tested it

These are my opinions im very big headed so if im wrong go test it out then tell me why i was wrong

and 5. better use spears (more dmg) or swords (more defense) = better cuz your gonna use nukes only (if you are pure int), you can make hybrid bow, they are good at that (IMO) but pure Int bowman (not good :pP IMO)

Do you know how hard it is to find a post that answers a question like that?

pure int bow has limited PvP capability, you can't take 2+ hits from a glavie, nor a nuke, nor do you have the crit to kill a pure int, or block ratio, blah blah

heh k, getting back on topic right now I'm a full int bow at lvl 42, it's fun killing mobs, I can even 2 hit mujigis with bow skill+nuke, but when I go out to PvP it sux really, no extra def unlike sword/shield, doesn't do as much dmg as spear (with spear you can get the hp passive which is nice) and this considering I have a lvl 42+4 SoS bow, that's why I'm switching weapons so I have a better chance at PvP

int bow isn't the best in pvm. pure int is. pure int bow would be second in pvm but thats just gimping yourself in pvp so you might was well go int spear or sword. be first in pvm and better in pvp

Watch duel 2.
If I were to make a video of myself fighting a pure int bow at my new level and new masteries I'd 2 skill them ( with new alchemy ) and using fire imbue, because 1 - I can't be frozen. 2 If they dont have spear passive they're just that much easier.

you can pvp with int bow fine, jsut when you start pvping, hold a sword and shield to nuke.

Bowers Are alot faster and they have combos and Aoe at low lvls... with a good set up a bower cud kill a pure str same lvl before he even walked up, more than any nuker can say...
