    Oh god a barb with a bow, what's next a mage with axes and hammers. (does anyone have a screenshot of this....plz)

    But seriosly that seems fun but annoying to play. Plus you'll probably get laughed at a lot. (mostly from other barbs)

    Sounds about right

    oh a bowbarian works alright its just that it takes longer than reagular barb 2 lvl it took me about 2 weeks 2 get 2 lvl 40 when with my other barb it took 1 week but the r still tanks (in a way.) a bowbarian is in other words an archer that is fuzy and have more hp and no skills besides self buffs (but switching 2 axes is a pain every time u need 2 buff) ive done fbs and ther were 2 barbs (me and main tank) the other barb attacked i was in the back of the group and shot arrows and crited so bowbarians work prett well but a pain 2 lvl

    switching back and forth between bow and axes is no big deal
    since, you don't really use any skills, your skill bar will be empty
    just stick ur diff weapons there and click it whenever u need to switch

    Reasons this would fail~

    Archers have skills that support grinding.. such as knockbak n frost.. while barbarian.. would be to close to the target that his atack would half? that means lots of pots n charms...b:surrender

    Mp points are kinda useless? since ya dont have any skills that depend as much mp.. goin LA would be the best idea.. (if it works)

    Reasons this mite work:

    Pure Dex.. Seems to be the only option for this.. the higher damage ya do.. mite give ya a chance.. to kill monsters before they touch ya.. grind wit weak monsters that fly.. But.. ya will not be a big tank.. so ya would die just like another low life race.. just wit a few extra shots n no skills b:laugh

    leave the bows for the pro races b:pleased

    b:bye

    Posted this in the wrong forum before so I copied it here


    Mom's Bowbarian Guide


    Build: enough magic to wear robes, everything else in dex.

    That's right, you're wearing robes. You're full dex, so you'll evade things a lot, may as well reduce that magic damage.

    Don't worry about vit, barbs have a ton of hp, you'll be fine.

    You're using bows and robes, no need for strength.

    Weapon: Duh BOWbarian. Highest level you can equip. You'll have to skip hh60, but you can use the hh70 unicorn bow. Might want to carry around a level 1 axe so you can cast your self buffs.

    Tactics: *Stand there and shoot things with your bow. They'll die. Don't worry about kiting like a pansy archer, you're a barb, that means you're a tank. Things won't kill you.

    PVP Tactics: same as pve. Stand there and shoot things with your bow. Mages can't hurt you cuz you're in robes.*Melee can't hurt you cuz you're a barb, you're a tank, you'll live. Just watch out for phoenixes, those things are nasty.

    Skills: Skills? bowbarian doesn't need skills.
    Get tiger form so you can run fast.
    Swimming mastery is important too.
    Might as well get your other buffs while you're at it. Basically that whole middle of the skill tree is good.
    That tiger form intensify thing isn't important since you won't be in tiger form much.
    Get poison fang I guess if you want to do wood damage like a veno cuz they're amazing.


    Leveling areas- wherever the **** you want. nothing can stop you, you're a bowbarian.

    Endgame goals: hh90 robe set, hh90 green bow (only one you can equip), jewelry is for girls, don't worry about that stuff.
    Oh and you'll be wearing an mp hat, try to get one with good bonuses.


    Go tear it up.
    *er...using bow means pretty slow killing since you get no special skills, even slower once the mob is up close, and though you're a barb remember you're wearing AA, so a phs mob=you're dead before you kill the mob

    * aye, but once again, dont forget the VERY low phs def. vs a BM, you're be doing **** at close range while he cuts down your hp with each shot...

    overall pretty nice, you've got good intentions....b:chuckle
