Archer/ 2 Hander Build?

[Glando]

Hi, I have been searching through the forums for a good archer 2 hander build.

Could anyone point me in the right direction for one with strength of 21 so I could get power Draw 7.

Also what would I be better off looming, the bow or the arrows?

Any help, much appreciated.

Loom bow first.

And go Horn Bow + 2 Stacks of bodkin arrows and 1 langes messer which you can use just fine in 2h mode.

Thanks for the help, any idea on the build please as im completely new to archer.

18/18 is only way to go archer/2hander.

take:

6 each of: Weapon master, powerstrike, powerdraw, athletics AND 5 ironflesh. 150 archery/50 2handed, then weapons is up to you, I would recommend longbow with +3 arrows so you got 27 ammo to kill ponies, and a langes messer or mace to spam shielders into submission.

A Longbow takes up 2 slots and langes 1 and 2 quivers of bodkins = 5 slots. Doesn't work.

And 17 arrows are too little. And taking anything else than Bodkins = Shamefur dispray


Get 18/21 build Glando.

You need extra ath to kite away from melee. Although...you said you want a hybrid so 18/18 is probably good as Blindguy said

18/21 hornbow(possibly the best/most ballanced bow + 1 slot), 1 bag of arrows if you're going with a 2hander and if you are going to be 2 hander half the time, 1 bag of bodkins should be more than enought.

Use 1slot 2hander weapons.

[Glando]

By the looks of it there is only 1 weapon that is 1 slot in 2 handers and that is a mace.I presume the Lang Messer is a 1 handed weapon.Which is better the mace or the lang messer for this build?

Take the Langes Messer.

Everyone and their mom uses Mace as my old friendcher. Go Langes Messer. It's in 1h weapon category but got 2h mode which uses both hands. It's like a mini longsword somewhat. With a different thrust animation.

Mace, but you'll be like any other archer and not a proper 2hander.

There's also the fighting axe, which is better than the langes messer for the shield-busting ability. Still, mace is better.

Cudgel also has 2h mode/

[Glando]

Thanks for all the help, I take it I would still need the 2 hander wpf for the lang messer?

Does anyone have a link to a 18/21 build recommended several times in this thread?

Yes, but it will only get used if you have alternate mode selected, of course.

[Leshma]

Make a pure archer, until Paul decide to fix hybrid archers.
