This should help you decide, some say pure str, others 70:70/80:80 or Str Hybrid

read up and make your choice ^.^

U nuke less than a spear, less hp than a spear, no watsoever weapon skill that boost your defense. Good luck, on your full int.

Im a 70:70 considering going 2:1 STR.

My friends char is hybrid str glaive...but I want him to go bow but that''ll cost him 1260 silk or 2220 hearts >.< and he needs to farm another 20k+ sp for the bow skills cuz it aint enough what he gets back...

yeah..I think hybrid str bow is better than pure str..but thats my opinion

lets assume that he has heuksal at lvl 80
80 (mastery lvls) / 5 (reallocation potions are selling by 5 pcs) = 16
16 * 28 (silk) = 448 silk

how did you get those 1260??

You really should try using the bow skills. In my experiance they work better for an Int Bow than nukes do. You may be pleasantly surprised.

i'm doing very good with 70:70 bow, dont give too much about the shit the haters here are posting. i guess they never played against one, or they would know what a fuckin good damage this build makes.

Well what bow build ? 70:70 of course lol... the one and only

Actually ... the answer I think should be ...

You can do just about anything you want with a bow. A bow is very forgiving that way. But you HAVE to know how to play the build that you have.

A Str bow is the most common, straight forward. and easiest to play. There is lots of information on how this build works. You really won't have to do much thinking to plan this one out.

A hybrid bow seems to take more skill and thought. There is a very long thread on hybrid bows by Jadekiss. Take a look at it. Many people are finding succes with 70:70 or 80:80 hybrids. But you definitely have to keep track of your balances and that takes a bit of work.

And a Int bow? Well I am not level 80 yet so I am still experimenting and figuring things out. The build is fun and works though.
