You can either google "bowazon build" or go to the "search this forum" option and type that in. Either place will have what you are looking for. For the record bowazons don't suck in every way just in most ways in my opinion. Don't let that discourage you though. My friend always makes amazon first when ladder resets. Different strokes I guess. Happy hunting.

The blind mind's eye replies with a sigh and a tear of contempt for those who see the world as it truly is.
dont build them they suck in every way possible even with the best gear.
nah dont think they suck or i wouldn't be building one, i have come across a shit load of amazons that can kick my lvl 73 sorc arse so i figured i would start one for kicks
dont build them they suck in every way possible even with the best gear.
Very idiotic thing to say......As for OP.....what kinda bowzon? I can give u a good build if ya want....I had a pretty good cookiecutter build back before i quit...
EDIT: also what do u wanna use it for? purely pvp or some pvm to? do you care about min/maxing to get the best possible break points while still having perfect ias etc etc..?...also whats your budget? thats a big part of what you can get for a build since some of it can be pretty pricey...
Amazons are actually amazing characters if you build them right, especially PvP. I personally never used them, but here is a site that I always use when I want to build a new character:
Amazons are actually amazing characters if you build them right, especially PvP. I personally never used them, but here is a site that I always use when I want to build a new character:
Ok heres a decent build most people go by....its good enuff for serious pvp if your willing to pratice a lot and invest in the gear and with a few swaps can be really effective in pvm.
Stats:
Strength: Enought for your gear counting your anni and torch and str giving gear of course
Dex: EVERYTHING else
Vita: Some people like to go with 100 vita others with 120 some with none to have TONS of dex.....I suggest having 100 base vita
Energy: Guess....NONE
Skills
Multishot: 5 points or so...your other gear will bring it up...but if you want more arrows form it then pump it as you see fit
Guided Arrow: Max this
Criticle Strike: Put enough points into this until your not getting 1% chance more to get a criticle
Avoid/Dodge/Evade: same as criticle strike keep pumping them till you hit a point where your not even getting a 1% bonus for a skill point
Valk: Some people like it....others dont....I say put one to it at least but pump it as you see fit some people consider it a necessity for dueling to have it maxed.
Penetrate: one to this is enough
Pierece: one to this as well
Gear
Weapons: Windforce is cheap and decent but the best bow by FAR is the Fatih runeword....in a Grand Matron Bow is best usually and higher the stats the better as always
Helm: I remember a lot of people using dream a lot but personally I think a 12045 helm with some life if you can afford it is by far the best. If your poor a 4015 shako works to.
Amulet: Cats eye is generally thought of as the best tho ive seen highlords used as well. Both are dirt cheap
Rings: 2xRavenfrost with as much dex as possible on them....ignor the attack rating always go for more dex if your poor.
Armor: most people go with fort for TONS more damage plsu the life and other great mods dont hurt either. You can also go with a 16060 is also a great choice, life on it helps out a lot to
Belt: noferatus belt is really good...it ias more IAS so its a no brainer. Altho a dungoes or SOE works to if you cant get one for whatever reason
Boots: If your on east then duped boots like grim spurs or soul spurs work REALLY well.....but if you insisnt on being legit then water walks are a great choice and so are treks and morrow walks.
Gloves: Magical gloves with 20 ias and 2 or 3 passive/magic skills is good for a cheap build. For an expensive build get 20 IAS gloves with knockback resist life dex str and any other mods. If you want expensive but generally duped gloves gale grasps are the best by far.
Weapons on Switch: CTA/Lidless or spirit. Or if you wanna be cool use a vigor bow and desynch the hell outta games.....
Chames: anni and zon torch with as high stats as possible. The rest of your inventory depends on your personal preferance. Some people use 32020s others use psn chamrs, others use faster walk and run chamrs with damage or life on them. A few 205's also cant hurt either. This is the only part of a good pvp bowzon im not to keen on but stacking any of those kinds of charms is good regardless. Also a few FHR charms cant hurt if you wanna hit the 86% FHR breakpoint.
Merc: Probably a insight merc with the holy freeze aura and a eth gaze and eth upped shaft....or a eth fort
This should probably be in the character builds thread LOL

Not a bad guide actually. Are you a zon type of guy or something? And is this PvP or PvM (I'm guessing PvP).

I thought my posted assholish, like threatening so I added that last bit. Haha.
no i hate zons for the most part.....hard to sue nigma on em and get the breakpoints right for me...i dunno just didnt like them....and yeah its for pvp...but with that gear pretty much all pvm would be a complete joke lol......probably throw on some leech gear for pvm tho like some shitty gaze just for its leech.....but ive seen bowzons own chaos and do the runs really fast with this kinda setup pretty easily so its good for pvm to i suppose
I don't know dude. Zons in duel games are harder to beat than Necromancers. They just killing you with arrows and their gay ass javelins. I always wanted to make a jav zon, but I guess I was too much of a failure.

Jav zons r fucking expensive man. I made a few...one was a cheap ass trashy one and the next was a fully tricked out one with the best gear possible....it was very hard to come by and trade for and I found that without being a loser and using FC in duels it wasnt all that great.....so then u had to use a nigma jav build which complicates things more lol so ig ave up then.......
bowzons arent that hard to beat in duels.....I honestly didnt use a stragety specifically ever.....just tele up to em avoiding there arrows them spam ur skill at em lol....thats all I ever did to beat the best ones even
nah dont think they suck or i wouldn't be building one, i have come across a shit load of amazons that can kick my lvl 73 sorc arse so i figured i would start one for kicks
you do realize how ridiculous that sounded right?
even in high end duels with my zon who had perfect gear which maybe 1/10,000 people MIGHT be able to afford ie my 3/20/20 charms, she died all the time and never won, only against less well equipped people. trust me they suck at pvp and pvm. and yes i tried equipping her with a full inventroy of poisen charms but that failed as well

so this is first hand experience vs you dieing...
a LOT of people can afford an inventory of 32020s, your exaggerating big time.........and just because you lost does not mean they suck at all. Are they the best dueler in the game? NO far from it....but played well they can be great in duels and stand up against almost any other build. And as for sucking at pvm.....you have got to be kidding me right? And as above im not saying there the best at it....but they are far FAR away from sucking at either
nah dont think they suck or i wouldn't be building one, i have come across a shit load of amazons that can kick my lvl 73 sorc arse so i figured i would start one for kicks
yeah and all those amas have been 80+ perhaps?:) Have they had kickass gear?.. Bowazons can be good but afaik they require the most expensive gear atm to be good at what they do.
