Archer Path [Suggestion]

Suggestions
#1

First of all, I really like Archer Class in every game I played. I’ve tried different Rank paths on my Archers and compare the other classes in terms of damage output and play style. So here’s my suggestions.

  1. “Attack Speed” - If we are to compare the auto attacks of other classes, especially Swordsman and Cleric. They can eliminate normal monster faster than Archers because they got AoE normal attack. Yes we are Archers, and technically we can only target 1 arrow per attack but our auto attacks are way behind are class. We’re damage dealers and crit dealers at the same time. We don’t have natural survivability skills, and we really rely on our “DEX”, equipment, and consumables to play. We accept the fact that we can auto 1 target at a time, but our attack speed really sucks.

  2. “Damage” - One thing that I observed is that our critical damage is just a normal damage from other class.

  3. “SP” - In order to boost our damage capabilities for 50% at most, we definitely need to rely on our SP. And it feels like we’re much more being a caster than a wizard. We need to grind a bit then sit, setup a bonfire, or consume blue potions. Most of our time was consumed only by sitting and waiting for our SP to be full.

  4. “Status Points” - In order for you to enhance your damage Physical Damage as well CRIT DMG, excluding equipments, you need to invest points on STR. But we need to rely on DEX to add critical chance, accuracy, and evasion. Also we need a lot of SPR to sustain our damage output for a little time.

So here’s what I think that can resolve this matter:

  • Attack Speed on our auto attacks
  • We need to feel the Crit, you know what I mean when It comes to crit. Not “crit” but “CRIT”
  • The skill’s CDs are fine so we just need a bit reduction to mana cost. Like Spending Critical Shot for almost 50+ SP per shot adding 300+ DMG and 50% Crit Chance is way way disappointing for one shot.
  • Lastly, we don’t need All our dex turned to Damage. We just want a bit of calculation on our Dex to improve our crit damage.

That’s all! And Thank you for letting me play this BETA and overall, this game for me is a GREAT GREAT game! <3

i suggest you to go archer C3 and enjoy your full dex build with Iron Bow (crit atk bonus): +range +attack for dex (1:1) +attack speed from Kneeling shot, also increased critical rate from it with attributes.

You are a turret.

I see what you mean.
I don’t feel much like an archer having most of my damage reliant on skills.
And since archers can only deal damage to one target at a time, it would make sense if they had a slight faster attack speed (kneeling shot is cool, but it doesn’t solve the issue).
