Im lv 50 str fire/ice bow, i put sp on Strongbow and Devil arrow..

But zexy said at Lv 69 after you have Book 3 Devil Arrow, Strongbow will
be useless.... so what is the point I invest Sp on Strongbow??

more question: will book 3 devil arrow @lv 69 have same pre-shot delay as strongbow??
Need to delevel strongbow @ lv 69??? or keep it because its still somewhat useful at cap lvl??

Lol, the point is to have fun using it the first 4 months until youre fully farmed

And no it has no dealy. Its a totally sick skill

what?? no pre-shot delay???
well you still need to wait for about 2 sec to shoot anti-devil or devil arrow,
3 sec to shoot strongbow...
but no waiting for multi-arrow

at lv 69 the 350% book3 anti-devil can shoot it without delay??? fast like
multi-arrow????? sound impossible!!!

Uhm, i counted strongbow (book2) its 4 seconds.

All right all right anti devil / explosion is maybe 2 seconds. But for me thats not a delay. 4 seconds is a delay

So yeah devil arrow takes about 2 secs to fire

You cant fire an arrow without pulling back the string

lol about me i dont use de skills dat take to long to charge and take long to "pull de sting" lol cose in dat take i can make hella damage to a mob or probs kill it

I'm farming to get them both.. I mean: if you first launch strong bow, and then 'what was that skill again '..

I dunno ^^, just made my first archer on eldorado ;o!

Skill Realocation Potions.

just because zexy says it's worthless it is?
Brainless people nowadays. HE'S 7X OOH DANG HE MUST KNOW.

He? o.0

And im only 68, but after having played the archer build for over a year now i would consider myself an advanced user.

I dont know whats up your ass lol but sure ill explain why it becomes useless if it will make you happy.

Anti devil / explosion series does around the same damage (until devil arrow)

They both take about 2 seconds to fire.

Strong bow adds half the amount extra of a normal anti devil / explosion arrow, but takes 4 seconds to fire.

So lets say your anti devil deals 3000 damage to someone.

Your strongbow should approximately deal around 4500.

You dont have to be einsten to figure out its useless to fire strongbow in the MIDDLE of a pvp.

But for a starter arrow its great.

Devil arrow deals MORE damage than strong bow, and has a LESSER delay.

Now go figure

less delay... more damage... area attack... attack rating increase... its pretty simple!

Aww come on now, dont be mean, there's still people out there like arretjescake that cant see the obvious or just isnt so sro experienced (with other words a newb)

strong bow is exactly 3.5 seeconds, just to let you know . and a strong bow will do about what an anti-devil/ explosion will do on a crit.

Lol no way.

Anti devil / explosion is (250%) if i recall.

Strongbow is only like (350%) and a liiiitle bit higher numbers.

I land 5-6k crits on my anit devil if im not fighting people in +5 / sos gear.

But no way i could get a strongbow up that high unless it crits

Them bow skills are sick. PuRe and Sekmeth crited everybody for 10k :> Thats one shot if youre not str.

lol ok here is wat i do and its so cool

1) find a gaint

2) press de Strongbow

3) after 2 sec when ur char pulls de string press ur embue and straight after de embue press zerk ( if zerk gage is full )

4) den shot ur best arows

well if ne1 wanna no y i do dat ( use Strongbow only when i activeat de zerk is just to save me some secs lol and somtimes char just goes crazy and i hit likr 7k wid lvl 9 gape lol wid me som bow

wooo archers rokkk

well what i am conerning is....

book 3 devil arrow is 350%
strongbow is 350%

since % higher mean the stronger the damage it does but
with longer pre-shot delay,
e.g Anti-devil book 1-3 is from 150%-250%, you notice that
you need to pull the string longer to shoot if u get the next book.

Berk arrow/ Demon arrow (book 1/2) has 200% and 250% so
no doubt they shoot faster than strongbow.

Tested and observed:
so time to pull the string for anti-devil (book 2) is The Same As
Berseker arrow (book 1) since both are 200%
anti-devil (book 3) is the Same As Demon arrow (book 2) since both are 250%

so, logically, Devil arrow (350%) will need to same time to pull the string
as Strongbow (350%), so no way Demon arrow will shoot faster

i dont think many poeple here has reached 69, so they dont see it yet.
correct me if im wrong..

You are wrong, it from explosion book 2 to 3 there's no extra delay added.

Trust me i have seen hundreds of devil arrows fired.

And its also 300-400 damage, huge difference

The 3rd book of Devil Arrow is just sick.

So much damage, and just so short loading.
Defenetly a must if you're an archer!

Just fire the strong bow skill first, then the devil arrow ~.~

Nothing beats a strong bow series crit, if it crits

its really a good news to me!!! very encouraging!! thx

+1 especialy when you fire it just like i show you above
