Hybrid Zon help

[Omnicide]

I'm wondering what to do for this hybrid zon I'm gonna make in HC.

Basically I need help with skills...which to max...which to put just a few points...and which to just leave at one point. Being a hybrid...they all look good...so I need some help cutting down the choices.

The only ones I'm SURE I'll max are:

Strafe
Jab
Critical (maybe?)

So far a bunch of these are gonna be one pointers.

Prerequisistes
Decoy
Valk
Evade/Dodge/Avoid
Inner Sight
Penetrate
Pierce

A couple questions, too. I want to make sure these skills work for both bows and javs...so does critical/penetrate/pierce work for both or just one?

I honestly have very limited knowledge on amazons so I figure it best to ask.

Thanks for any/all help.

evad,dodge and avoid helped my zon alot, but i haven't maxed em yet lol, and depends if you make guided arrow zon uuse pierce cause you'll own the **** outta your opponent

But GA only works on one enemy. And I thought Pierce didn't work on GA. ._.

Crit\pene\pierce works for both trees.

Put your first point into crit strike, your second into jab, go clear the den of evil and you will sometimes see and hear the signs of doing critical strike...

Well I'm more worried about which skills to max/only put a few points in/only need one point. ._.;

Maxing critical strike seems kinda dumb imho. Put around 5-10 into it, if that, and settle for those benefits. You don't want to max GA, it's realy only usefull against bosses on a Bowa, but you're hybrid so dump a few points into CS for those testy bastards. Jab is nice, but I would assume a hybrid LF/Bowa would be a better choice.

To me, it is kind of a personal choice :) I'm trying to make a jabberzon now, and i have maxed jab, dodge\avoid and i think i will max evade as well, and i will have around 10 pts into crit strike, and 1 into penetrate..... The only thing that worries me is attack rating, but i think i will save some pts to see if i need it to put into penetrate later.

I guess there is always an end solution as to what is the most effective use of skill points, but i do not know it for each build ^_^ And yours, a hardcore hybrid (what kind of hybrid btw? Jabber\Bowzon?) really sounds like a off-path build - it might of course work.

I don't know what further advice to give you...

If I remember correctly, I believe he said it was a Jab/Strafe zon...

Edit: Oh here we are.

Yea, and I was saying doesnt sound like too great of an idea.
I'm trying to see how a Freeze Arrow/LF hybrid would work atm.
