    If both are the same level, and Bowbarian is Pure Dex while Barbarian is regular vit....

    If the Barbarian gets within melee range, Bowbarian is dead. Because the Barbarian will have full attack power, Bowbarian's attack power will suffer the 5-meter halving gimp, and Bowbarian has less health. Ouch.

    If the Bowbarian keeps the Barbarian outside of melee range, he should land a lot of hits because of the high dex. Each hit will be at max power which would deal the same attack power as the other Barbarian's normal skill. But the Bowbarian would have to work a bit to take out the Barbarian's HP; and if the Barbarian has a charm, no winner. No charm, Bowbarian might win. In time.

    And yes, I take things seriously XD

    Very good point. If Barbarian is in tigerform, Bowbarb can't kite him because he's stuck in humanoid and slower. Ouchie.

    I haven't played a Pure Dex barb (4 Dex 1 Str) but I had some very high dex early on. Normal Attack and Arrows dealt the same damage for a while until I shifted the balance of my stats. It was pretty interesting. The attack power would be stronger at Pure Dex but it still wouldn't compete with skills.

    Which is why the Bowbarb can only win by kiting the Barb. Which becomes a problem if they go Tiger XD The Barb is likely to have better DPS even with misses than the Bowbarb can get with their arrows and no misses.

    (High dex barb, on the other hand, has wonderful DPS using skills without almost no misses and HA+ Strength <3)

    That's about the size of it.
    I used to wonder why I would have these scary dreams every month. About the wolf, who kept running through town. And as I wondered, I also thought about how I couldn't remember having those dreams before being bitten by this very big dog...



    But now I know the truth.
    And I am not afraid.

    We know the answer already... LOL...

    its a failed bet,

    Barbian > bowbarbarian (PVE or PVP)

    fist barbarian (some people would love it) > bowbarbarian (same as the above)

    besides, fist BMs don't use much MP if you look at it, it sounds cool for a barbarian for fists. But archers USE MP often AND ARROWS. What a waste of coints.

    But I believe fist barbarian would lose to barbarian, but at least it won't be embarrassing as bowbarbarian because fists will last longer i believe. If only there were barbarians with fist skills b:surrender

    Maybe fist barbs will do better than normal barbs in PVE b:shocked any high DEX barb want to try? I never heard of fist barbs before b:chuckle
