How would a pure str cold bow be? I've had a pure str lighting bow and I killed Mobs of my level without them even reaching me. If I have cold, then it's even less likely that they reach me. So what's so bad about cold???? everyoune says it sucks but I wanna know why. I'm not very experienced yet, but fire bow sounds really crapppy, because in PVP the oppponent is likely to reach me... and kill me. But if i'm cold.... and a bit lucky.... they might not reach me....
So please explain why everyone says cold sucks.
Although it has been explained before, it is due to the fact that at higher levels
you can be almost 100% immune to cold status, due to alchemy and fire shield being a % (up to 6x % (forgot which amount but high) and at 7th degree or 8th 2x ring with 20% = 100% cold immunity)
The keywords are
You Can Be. However it doesn't mean everyone will be. Tthose people who are 100% immune probably haver uber-gear with +9 weapons and you probably can't beat them anyway. Remember that not everyone will be immune to ice.
I would think that most people are only partially immune to ice at the most. And even if they're partially immune, ice can still be a little debilitating at least.
No, fog tabs drop like crazy and are selling for less then 500k a stone. Its cheap to become ice immune.
