Ok here's the scenario.. I'm a lvl 18 str fire bow user.. From lvl 1 to lvl 17, i've been adding str.. So from now onwards, I'll be adding int to increase my mana and my magical dmg..

Yeah.. As the topic says, i'm going glaive now.. Coz I just found a lvl 16 sos glaive.. So I was thinking, if i'm going to go glaive AND bow, where should i go to sp farm, and what skills should I get?

Oh yeah, my mastery lvl is at 11 now.. I'm going to make sure it'll be 9 lvls difference when i'm sp farming..

Edit: Basically, I still want my main weapon to be a bow instead of a glaive.

Thanx in advance

mastering two weapons is as hard as - if not harder than - mastering two forces. this is because most of the weapon skills have very high SP costs, especially at higher lvls. my preliminary advice is to pick one and focus on that.

however, if you're set on dual-classing your weapons, then i'd find a place that has things you'll want to kill from far and things you'll wantto kill close. specifically, the bandit stronghold. you can kill bandit archers from far away w/ your bow, but the bandits pack much more of a punch and run right up to you. you'll want to switch to your glaive there. i'd put your weapons on hotkeys so you can switch to them with ease as the situation demands.

hope that helps. lemme know if you need anything else :)

Or you can do what I do. Im primarily a glaiver, but felt monotonous at one time and I played around with a blade. But found out and said "hey! blades are pretty fun!" So I added a few lvls to it until i can get the combo and smash and the passive skill. And voila!! Two weapons. I can blade with style, yet no hinderances upon my sp!! But its harder to do it with glaive as secondary since the first few skills REALLY suck.

I was thinking maybe, have one skill of Glaive to use that sos glaive for sp farming.. and then maybe once I have the required sp, I do the curse heart quest to de level my skill/mastery lvl for Glaive..

Btw what's the lvl to do the curse heart quest?

low lvl sos items are not hard to find...sell your sos glavie and look for a +3 or higher bow and sp farm at the bandit camp....bow's kill faster and have range..so bandit camp will be the best for u to sp farm with a bow
bow would be better in this situation because u don't have to run around as bandits spawn everywhere...so u jus stand there and kill bandits with ur bow...so bow = faster killing and no down time looking for mobs
