lvl10 -> lvl11 is 60%dmg -> 71%dmg
lvl20 -> lvl21 is 80%dmg -> 91%dmg

id say there'll be another huge difference f33
and how could you stand using strafe knowing that you had hurricane? when i got hurricane, i put it on my main attacking key right away, even if it did feel weaker.

I still use Strafe on my BM that has 1 Hurricane - Hurricane is my main attack, obviously, but the inability to jump shot is so damn depressing that I still alternate a lot.

Most fun, 1 FP, 1 DP, 1 Pierce (IMO). It is also fairly functional. Of course start pumping SE once you get training.

Alternatively you can get 3SE and level to 121, then get the fun skills, then break. 120 will go fast with the SE.

[COLOR="DarkOrchid"]Hm... that does seem like a good way to go. I'll do the former way, even if I do have to wait for SE (I have someone waiting on me for NathPQ, so DB will be quick for me to get x3)
Only reason I'm not doing the SE --> 121 route is b/c I really don't want to buy 2 4 hour 2x cards this weekend...[/COLOR]

i agree with vnthi3f, get 3 points in se, then 2 se 1 FP, and 2 more se then 1 snipe thats 123. dont get points in pierce until you decide to get it to 21, lv 1 pierce is crap. after se is 9 get mastery to 6. depending on funds get se to 19 or boost to 16. after that it depends on what you want to do. personally i did se to 29 since i could afford it, and then got pierce to 21 (love it, skeles are my biaches). now working on boost again, then snipe.

smart builds > fun builds.

[COLOR="DarkOrchid"]Well, you do have a point... and I guess working democratically, the SE to 3s have it xD
I probably won't have a chance to play around w/ the other skills anyways, there is only a few more quests to do on it in that regard (Pap and a few Leafre ones), and Pap quests can wait till I can actually take him on.[/COLOR]

Ok, i dont know how to add bm stats in the first place and i want to make a windbreaker.

The question is, if cygnus gets more points than normal adventurers, until what level can i use the auto-ap adder ?

Don't use it.

Then how do i add bowmans statistics ?

Click on the up arrow next to DEX.

What are you ?

That's how you make a bowman. If you need STR to wear a bow, click on the arrow next to STR instead.

Dude, you have serious issues.

I'm confused what your problem is. Joe couldn't be making it any simpler.

A) You shouldn't be using the Auto AP Adder ever, anyway. It's retarded, and it's not hard to manually do 5 clicks.
B) You should focus mainly on DEX for any Bowman class.
C) Think about what bow you want to use and cap your STR accordingly. For example, I use a Golden Nisrock, so I have 80 STR (80 base + 27 from equips = 107 STR; the Nisrock takes 105 to equip).

Where is your confusion coming from? How can we further help you?

I understood him already... Just that the way he answers is weird.

How do I get +101 str from gear so I can be str-less nisrock.

4 base, 21 str yellow cape, 17 str helm 41 str, 6 dex overall, 22 str HT pendant, gives 105 str.

Just make it 8 STR and get a ...43 STR overall? 4 STR is no better than 7 STR. The breakpoints at which MW increases your damage are at the 2s of the str modulo 5 function.

I don't think you should be sacrificing the attack from capes for strength; shoes are a much better candidate because facestompers are extremely expensive. You can probably make some ~9 str reverse shoes and level them up a bit for even more str.
