Hey everyone, and hi IMC,
Currently, i have a lvl 250 musketter and 800+ hours of play, i enjoy playing all the different things about the game, PvE, hunting World Boss, the new PvP, doing quests, hidden quests, and gimmick events and mini games.
The reason for this topic is to discuss how i feel beeing an archer and not having more benefits from dex that other classes would have.
we are talking about archers for god sake’s, they use bows, crossbows, and attack enemies from far away ( even tough it seems we have a very small maximum range to cast some skills or auto attack with bows and crossbows).
I would like to hear some opinions fom other players, most of those that main the archers class… Wouldn’t it be great if we could get a little bit of extra physical damage from Dexterity? Maybe a little bit more of maximum range each 40 or maybe 50 points invested into dex? Or block penetration as a % of our accuracy?
I remember Ragnarok Online where the archer would totally benefit from Dexterity, wich made a lot of sense actually, the highest an archer dexterity means a better aim, hitting enemies weak spots. Strenght for an archer means what, pulling the cord of the bow a bit harder? The weapon has a limit and the damage comes from the arrow, if it goes 90km/h or 100km/h don’t really make any difference, and again, the bow itself has it’s limit right?
Im talking a little bit about logic here, dexterity seems a lot more important for an archer, than strenght, even with physical damage in mind.
I honestly feel like the archer class lacks something, because it’s the weakiest in terms of HP/SP, you can’t invest too much into con, not to mention into SPR, if you want to give a nice amount of damage, both on PvE and PvP, because you want a good critical rate and a good amount of base damage and critical damage always…
And most of the classes on the archer tree are totally based on skill shots, skill rotations, different types of arrows (fltchers), meaning you are always spending on mana pots and other type of resources, making it more expensive than the other classes on this game, resource-wise…
i want to hear what everyone has to say, just comment here and leave your opinion, and if you took time to read everything till here, then thank you!
