Hi guys,

I'm thinking about building a hybrid character too. After building a pure str and pure int.

I was thinking about a hybrid bow with fire/ice...

Would this work as with str:int --> 1:1?

I've read your post and I agree with the guy that fire/lightning would be the best right now, with the 80 lvl gap...hmm...I was just thinking...as a hybrid I would need the buffs from lightning...okay...it's gonna be fire/lightning and just see how it works

Hey guys, I'm playing with my bow now, but when I do the sp calculator (the one in which you can also see mag% and phys%), I don't seem to get high on either of them...

Can a Archer even compete on the high levels with the other builds? I don't want to be pure str, but hybrid, so I was thinking around 2 str, 1 int every level... (not precise)

Anyway, when I do that, I get around 86% physical damage and 45% magical damage. When I do 1:1 I get 75% physical and 62% magical, so which would be better? I know that the nukes aren't very interesting for an archer, but it would be nice to get a decent damage from the imbues...

Those balance are without include a decent gear. At cap I will have 85% phys 77% mag with the gear that is already alchemized and waiting for me. And the ansewer is yes, they can compete at high level but it will depend lot on how skillfull you are pvping with your build.

Hmm, well, that pvp is important, but I read a lot about the crits they need to be succesfull in pvp. If there's anything I hate, it's to have to win based on luck...

Would this also be the case for a 1str:1int bowman?

go for 90:39 or 88:42 builds
88:42 = 5:1 str archer

I have never played a high level strength character but I am pretty sure they all depend on crits to win.

To win you need to kill the other person and strength characters do little damage. I played a hybrid int sword character with 4500hp that can tank and then kill a pure str bladder with close to 10k hp. So if the bladder doesn't get multiple crits IN A ROW then the bladder cant even kill someone with less than half his own hp.

To answer your question
I can also tell you as a hybrid int bow that I still depend on my crits to win.

Oh and in my opinion bows are seriously disadvantaged in pvp. If you want to do good 1vs1 then wait till the new skills come out with knockback and stun.
Or maybe I just have bad tactics everyone says you need good tactics. Well I have tried different things, and anyone with gear similar to me wins more then they loose.

Well, I know it's gonna be a hard build to go 1vs1...Anyway, I already made a choice. I'm gonna go for an equal magical and physical balance --> 70/70...
If it works, I've got no idea, but I think it sure is one of the most fun builds to play with... :D 8)

I have lvl 42 2:1 str archer, 85% phy balance, dont remember th e mag :P... i have good adverage dmg and my crits still hurt a lot, also my HP is good (3400)

i think this is the best build for archer, i can kill to full str archers really easy, nukers too, and with some "run and hit" i can kill some glaviers too :). But at higher lvls, archer is not good at all in pvp, but u will be LETAL in masive wars :twisted:

i will keep adding 2:1... and i'll post news soon :wink:
