Im thinking about my endgame fist set with my archer... which one will be less expensive: General's Bracers or the Ashura's Bracers?

Im thinking on getting the General's Bracers also for the extra Str, for using the Gorenox Vanity fist... what do you guys think about it?

    Ashura is better because if you get another piece of TT99 (boots are cheap as hell and useful) you'll get another -0.05 interval bonus for having 2 pieces of 99. / nuff said.

    Ashura braces are because of the bonus they have with the boots...

    Ashura cause for the reasons above.

    Gorenox Fist can be used with even pure dex build , get 2 Band from heaven Jail ( or other str rings) + warsoul helm + any STR cape and tada , u have the STR bonus for gorenox.

    at lvl 99 u can use Lionheart necklace and belt ( -interval bonus for wearing both + STR bonus) TT physical def ornaments.

    That's what im going to do , other people may have different opinions too.

    Purely comparing the two, TT90 wins. Taking into account the grades and potential bonuses, TT99 wins.

    TT90 Pros:

    Cheaper
    Better add-on

    Cons:

    Need additional piece of TT99 for -0.05 set bonus (e.g leg)
    Unable to shard vit stones

    TT99 pros :

    Able to shard vit stones
    Refine higher
    Maximum APS build enabled
    +HP

    TT99 cons:

    Available later
    More expensive
    +evasion...lol

    Archers don't need every piece of int gear for 5.0, so in practice 'maximum aps build' isn't really needed.

    I used TT90 gold till i got TT99

    one thing you wanna keep in mind tho is if you get TT90 gold and then get TT99 later you will have your TT90 gold bracers stuck in your back taking up a space for life, unless you have high enough Tailor to decomp them b:chuckle

    my tt90 gold bracers and tt80 gold bow are hogging spaces in my bank >.<

    If you're a pure bow archer, getting every possible piece of -int gear possible is pretty awesome. I wish I could get a Zerk bow and 5.0 with a bow. That would... Um... Be more OP than multiple sins though. b:shocked

    100 Demon BM*/Barb
    96 Demon Cleric/Sage Seeker
    95 Demon Wiz/
    94 Sage Veno

    And a handful of other alts, all 79 and under.

    Not really, you don't auto attack in PvP that much. PvE wise bow archers are still obselete compared to fist archers.

    On the contrary autoshot can be very annoying or even deadly to not uber-geared players. Especially if that quickshot procs :9

    even 2.0 base would be lethal, demon QS with that would be pretty bad a.ss

    just get n account stash and any bound stuff I have can go through my stash to my other characters on the same account it saves a crapload of money on leveling and gearing others. but yeah what I do is get the stuff as I go and save it for later for alts or friends. then get the higher stuff when I get tere, why pick and choose at all lol.
