Best Weapons Choice

The Main Hand weapon for this PVE Build is the Longbow. Longbow allows you to stay stationary at the maximum range for optimal damage due to passives in Throne and Liberty. Longbow stands out due to its dynamic range combat. A longbow is a unique weapon that is easy to use, deals massive damage, and provides high versatility. However, this weapon lacks mobility and is not useful at close range. This weapon is specially built for long-range combat.

The Off-hand Weapon for the Longbow PVE Build is Staff. Staff in Throne and Liberty is a ranged magic damage-dealing weapon. It deals damage in direct hits, dots, and area (AOE). The Staff has the longest range in the game, with a lot of the damage coming from burn dots. Not only can the Staff deal AoE damage, but it can also deal damage over time. However, this weapon is Vulnerable at close range and has long cooldowns along with the low DPS.

The other weapon that works well with the Longbow is Dagger. Use a Dagger’s single critical hit to remove enemies who have less than 50% health and it excels in close-range battle only. If use a dagger perfectly in close-range combat, you can gain Critical hit damage, burst damage, and Crowd Control effects as well.  Daggers can poison your opponents and are best used for crowd control with low defensive abilities in the fight.   Dagger in Throne and Liberty is a melee weapon that causes burst damage, critical hit damage, and crowd control.  Dagger can inflict poison on your enemies and is best utilized for crowd control but has low defensive abilities.

Defense Skills

Overtaker

The best longbow defensive skill in Throne and Liberty is the Overtaker.

Damage Production and Mobility are the two roles of defensive skills in the game.

Defensive skills are skills that allow you to defend against attacks. Enemies will have a “Fury Attack,” a purple circle drawing down to a central point. You can defend against the Fury Attack by using your defensive skill at the precious moment for a perfect defense. Each weapon has its defensive skill, which consumes stamina instead of mana, shown on the left of your User Interface when used. Special effects occur when you successfully defend against a Fury Attack; timing is vital for maximizing your build’s potential.

Weapon Mastery

The best weapon mastery tree for the Longbow PVE Build is Assassination because it enhances the most damage.

Below are the best weapon mastery selections in Throne and Liberty using the Longbow PVE Build.

  • Longbow- Use 9 points on Check and then move to Sniping for Ranged hit.
  • Staff- Allocate 9 points to Mana and then switch to Destroy for Base damage.

Weapon Mastery is a system that gives you experience for your weapon that is equipped proportional to the experience earned.  Weapon Mastery points are limited at the beginning of the game but you gain more mastery points as you progress in the game. While your off-hand weapon gains less weapon mastery, your main-hand weapon gets all the mastery points.

Your main hand weapon gains increased weapon mastery, while off-hand still gains some, just not as much.

Best Stat Points

The most important stat for a Longbow PVE Build is Strength and then Perception.

Below is the best recommended Stat Point:

  • 50 Strength: affects defense, maximum health, maximum damage, and minimum damage.
  • 59 Dexterity: affects critical attack, evasion, and maximum damage.
  • 18 Wisdom: affects maximum mana and mana regeneration, skill cooldown, and maximum damage.
  • 29 Perception: effect accuracy of attacks, Crowd Control effects, enhancing time boost ability, maximum damage, and minimum damage.

In Throne and Liberty, stat points are earned while leveling and increasing your effectiveness.  When you spend a stat point, you increase the effectiveness of that related attribute. However, after a certain number of points, you reach diminishing returns, and two points are required to increase a stat rather than one. Moreover, once stats reach a certain level spent (30 or greater), you gain unique bonuses.

Guardian

Throne and Liberty Guardian Lady Knight Kamarshea

The best Guardian for the Best DPS Longbow PVE Build is Lady Knight Kamarshea because of the Eternal Barrier skill that creates a 50% max mana shield and speeds up your cooldowns. If you have enough survivability, look to Masked Warlock Dantalux and the skill Abyssal Sanctuary for increased burst damage.
