Archer Guide

This is a response for the post by Sharpshot. For all beginners who are looking for helps, try to look into older post first before asking any question. This build is just to give you some basic idea about how to play an archer. Whatever you want to do differently, it's up to you.

Leveling Spots.
***I will put up leveling spots when I get off work.***

I will update this later on including Stones to use and all that good stuff.


****SKILLS****
Requirement lvl 66

Dash 5/5 (ASAP)
Animal Soul 5/5
Power Crossbow or Power Bow 5/5
Rock Skin 5/5
Soul Breath 5/5
Snare Shot 5/5 (Extremely important for PvE)
Chain Action 5/5 (PvP only)
Force of Nature 5/5 (PvP only)

Burst Shot 5/5 (Major PvE skill)
Phoenix 5/5 (Major PvE & PvP skill)
Helpless 5/5 (Extremely important for PvP)
Arrow Hail 1/5 & Endurance 5/5 or Arrow Hail 5/5 & 1/5 Endurance (Optional)



Here is a more specific guide:

lvl 1 - 22
Required points: 20 Remaining points: 1

Dash 5/5
Rock Skin 5/5
Animal Soul 4/5
Power Xbow or Bow 1/5
Piercing Shot 5/5
Endurance 1/5

Mostly buff. Your only combat skill is Piercing shot. With high defense from buffs, most monsters should give you only around 1-10 damage if not less. It maybe boring to get to lvl 22 since you only have 1 combat skill but it will save you from buying reset skill orb in the future. Hit and run is the major tactic, should pull about 15-20 mobs, if you have chantra pots and good armor 20-30 mobs maybe possible.

lvl 22 - 42
Required points: 41 Remaining points: 0

Dash 5/5
Rock Skin 5/5
Animal Soul 5/5
Power Xbow or Bow 5/5
Piercing Shot 5/5
Snare Shot 5/5
Burst Shot 3/5
Soul Breath 4/5
Magic Arrow 1/5
Chain Action 1/5
Force of Nature 1/5
Helpless 1/5
Endurance 1/5

Maxing out buffs. Your major combat skills are Snare Shot, Piercing Shot, and Burst Shot. Again, hit and run. It should be fairly easy to lvl up by now since you have Snare Shot. You can probably handle up to 15+ mobs at this time. Magic Arrow, Chain Action, Force of Nature, and Helpless are for PvP.

lvl 42 - 66
Required points: 66 Remaining Points: 0

Dash 5/5
Rock Skin 5/5
Animal Soul 5/5
Power Xbow or Bow 5/5
Snare Shot 5/5
Burst Shot 5/5
Soul Breath 5/5
Magic Arrow 5/5
Chain Action 5/5
Force of Nature 5/5
Helpless 5/5
Phoenix 5/5
Arrow Hail 1/5 & Endurance 5/5 (for PVE)
Arrow Hail 5/5 & Endurance 1/5 (for PVP)



Maxing out the remaining buffs. Piercing Shot replaced by Phoenix. Major PvE skills are Snare Shot, Phoenix, Burst Shot. Again, hit and run, Asylum is the place to go. It is possible to get up to lvl 70 in Asylum. After Asylum you will have to grind outside which will be a pain in the azz. The last 6 skill points are for you to decide. You can spend them on almost anything like or you can just do like me. For PVP, max out Arrow Hail because of its insane damage, or for PVE max out Endurance so that you have some extra HP.

This build is so basic that almost every archer, no matter high or low, will have their builds similar to this. That it, peace out !
