equips for B grade HE :)

bop +3QR or CS i want 2 pvp/pve so whats best?

doom armor

and i am getting tats from mammon
Greater Dye of DEX [Dex+4 Con-4]
Greater Dye of DEX [Dex+4 Con-4]
Greater Dye of DEX [Dex+4 Con-4]

and BO jewels

is that the best option ?
What you gonna do with just 3 DEX dyes? You need 10 of them to apply a tattoo. And if you mean you're going to take +12 DEX in total, lol. You can't increase 1 stat by more than 5 with tattoos.
i got 3 places on for tats and i wanna put that on :/ i know i need 10 doh
then what exactly is the problem?

cause you say that that you cant increase 1 stat with more then 5 tats but i only got 3 spots :/
You can take a +4 DEX -4 CON and +1 DEX -1 CON(or+3 and +2), but not two +4. I think the most common tattoos for HE are +4 STR -4 CON, +4 DEX -4 CON and maybe +1 DEX or STR more.

Aspecti is right. You cant increase any stat more than 5 using tatoos.
If you really want to increase your Dex by max using tatoos just buy a Dex +4 Con -4 and a Dex+1 Con -1
ok cool will do a
Dex +4 Con -4 and
Dex+1 Con -1

and then i got 1 left i lil less crucial but str is always welcome(+4 STR -4 CON ? any1 got other suggestions ? :) ) i dont really have 2 worry about how much SS and arrow i can carry cause i get quiver of holding and majstic armor

ofc stun lands pretty easy but hell all for the crits ^^
STR > DEX for damage..

Anyways it's a good PVE setup, or PVP if you got boss jewels :p

you sure ? if you got buffed with the max dex tats i heard you crit about 1/3 maybe its less but what i mean is if you crit more you out dmg some1 that almost doesnt crit with str tats

cause you wont see a HUGE boost if you +5 str with tats and what do you do - on ? con or dex ?if you dex you screw your crit rate pretty bad
dex does jack for crit rate
dont think you can even get 5% more crit rate out of dex let alone up to 30%
i dont got a clue but all archer got dex tats for crits they dont do it for show :/
It's more like 2% on base crit rate.. HE's that has Crit chance lvl 1 and at later levels a focus bow will gain even less from DEX compared to STR. (Because they're unaffected by focus type buffs). The most damage will come from the 3.5-4.5% attack speed ou get from +4 to +5 dex.

You DO see a huge boost in damage output from STR though, PATK is directly affected by STR, and you get a bonus to patk when you have over 40 STR.

Now.. having a bit more dex does make the char _feel_ a bit more agile, the extra run speed is also quite nice.

PS. With full buffs and Drac Focus, a HE will reach 500 critical rate without +dex, HE can even do -DEX and still get 500 critical rate with Snipe :p

Edit: Not all archer get +DEX, you have the +dex and the +str camp.. then you have the glasscannons that goes for both ^^ I was one, it was nice, but stun rate.. ouch.
i dont know the term glasscannons :<

but you also said that the atk speed increases for about 4,5% thats quite nice cause that really boosts your dps on top of that we get self buff lv.2 rapid shot @ lv.55

so @ the end of the day how much p.atk do you gain ? is that much that you can say its worth using +str cause i rule much better in pve pvp

or is the atk speed runspeed and the lil crit rate increase better then the str increase?
owh yeah and 500 crit rate how much you actually crit then ? (is it buffed or unbuffed?)

1 on 3 shots ? 1 on 8 1 on 15 ? i know you cant say exactly
Crit rate in your stats is 1/1000, so 500 critical means you will crit 50% of the time. Even more from behind.
Your not going to touch 500 crit rate @ B grade anyway.

+5 Str -5 Con is standard way to go.

+4 Dex -4 Con if you really want too but its not needed and frankly wont help alot... but it is semi ok for PvE, just take it off for PvP.

With -9 Con you arent going to be holding much Arrows/SS so I hope you have a 2nd account buffer or something to hold. (And no you dont have Quiver of Holding or Majestic Armor in low B grade.. Quiver 58, Majestic is obviously A grade)
we focus for end game content:)

i know but we look ahead ^^

i am doing 1 lv a day so dont take that long wonder how long i can keep that up thougd as long as i get 7 10 % per mob i can do it ^^

ok nice 1/2 crit you you dont really need the dex @ the endish of the game nice then i deff agree that with focus (+88 wooot) then str is huge crits

and the speed isnt really for he anyway its just stand still pk walk 5 meter pk again ^^

but i wanna know waht glascannon means :P
Glasscannon: Sacrifice as much CON as you can to maximize STR and DEX for maximum damage output. Leaves you with quite alot lower HP and stun resist is noticably worse as well.

The only true Glasscannon build is done by PR's that start at 32 CON, and end up with -10/11.. that's 22/21 CON.. OUCH!
thats why i dont like pr they sux ^^

with -con tats stun is imo really bad for he already i was pvp with my clannie (wl dont laught :P) and he could stun me pretty easly
and i dont got tats on right now :/

any other things that i have 2 watch out for ? with -con tats? like stun etc?
Bleed resistance? :P
owh thats always a git ^^

thx for wisdom :)
After Eminence/CG there is not a single thing you need Cheap Shot for, herbs are you friends, use them to the fullest while hunting. And in party there should always be an EE/SE with you in case of trouble.

I beat 2k MP on my HE now, I rarely go under 1400.
nice :) i go GR on my bop then :)
GR? Guidance? I'd go Quick Recovery ^^

think he meant to typ QR though.
ups typo :P QR :P:P:P:P:P guidance is most useless of all ^^
you can go -9 con PL set and BOP QR for pve

dex does jack for crit rate
dont think you can even get 5% more crit rate out of dex let alone up to 30%



you get around 4/1000 crit chance bonus if i remember well, oh maybe a bit more on HE SR, maybe like 10/1000

199 to 205 something unbuffed, hardly makes any difference.
so str tats all the way
i put on str +4 -4con
+1 str -1 con

and then? a dex tat or ? + con ? :/ dont really need that imo maybe for resistance bleed stun ?
best setup for 52+ HE

+3 str -3 con
+2 str -2 con
+4 dex -4 con

Doom Light set (PVP), Plated Leather (PVE)

Bow of Peril w/Cheapshot

You can easily farm the mob for the recipe cause it's your lvl anyway, and the fabrics can be obtained cause people often have them laying around.
how much does it cost in total? 3 mill ?or are we looking @ 7 mill ?
Theca boots go for like 2m give or take 500k on Lionna.. last time I saw them.. My Theca set is mostly +5 and +4 now :o It's hawt, but I don't use it hehe
i got theca trying 2 sell it for 2 mill :/

Id say =
Grinding for the rec: 0a (you have to grind anyway)
buying parts: 100k each = 700k
Buying gems and crystals in Giran = 250k maybe?
Mats: 0a (you should have them by now)

So 1M max.
nice thx :)
