yea but not everyone is a pyro / where every archer has atleast 1 rank in archer
Mage = garbage combat skills / good utility skills
Archer = good damage skills
(just comparing the bases classes you have to take here)
Could you provide a video of you playing in the level 130 instance ?
Iām interested in seeing how you would manage your cooldowns / sp consistenly against more resistant enemies and how scout/rogue plays out in party.
Unfortunately my group of friends (sword, sword, mage, cleric) are sitting between 100~128 and I simply donāt play anymore at the moment to look for dungeon groups as a dps. But from level 90/100 instances and party quests, scout/rogue C1 do not contribute much more to killing trash mobs.
Stockades and claymore does most of my aoe dps. We usually los a bunch of mobs in a corner, drop safety zone and aoe them all. I would drop aggro with Cloaking and circle behind with claymore, stockades, and flare shot on the mobs. My mage buddy would link and pressure while my swordies would dps and knockback some mobs with bash. I would knock mobs back into my stockades with pavise if my stockades are still alive, otherwise I just drop it in front of our mage. When the units are linked, Iād spam stone shot, otherwise I just wait for cds. If we lured too much, weād start dancing around until safety zone cd is up and Iād keep using stockades/claymores and knockbacks for damage. Afterwards we rest for sp.
Against bosses just stockades, flare shot if they donāt move around, detonate the annoying silence traps, and stone shot. Drink SP pots like grape juice and call it a day.
I stopped using multi-shot because sp isnāt really an issue if you are willing to drink and, with the C1 charge time, I could throw 3 stone shots while being able to moving around.
i am comparing the strongest possibilities for each archetype, why wouldnāt i? thatās like me saying you have to compare everyone to quarrel shooter. my pyro can do the same single target and more aoe, everyone knows how insane highlander is, but all swordsman can do great damage, even peltasta is great damage just by the virtue of auto attacks. krivis can blow everything up two times every 30 seconds and as long as it is not flying you can use cure and heal for nice damage as well.
if you compare the first rank then mage wins out, followed by swordsman, cleric and then archer when comparing the speed and ease of play when getting to level 15
no your not you were comparing archer to priest. you were comparing the worst to the best lol.
donāt take archer literally, i am talking about archer classes till rank 5, where archer archetype starts picking up
I tried āFlu Fluā today, didnāt work as the description said. It makes the mobs go after me even more ferociously than before I use the skillā¦
And certain types of monsters donāt react at all.

Another thing: why donāt āHigh Anchorā act like āFull Drawā when released? Theyāre both moving, charged, knock back skills. Instead of facing the targeting mob (I play by console with target lock, ctrl+number is too much of a hassle for me) like Full Draw does, High Anchor just shoot at the direction iām facing, which makes me feel retarded most of the timeā¦
later that doesnt do anything to you.
Actually archer outclass anyone in terms of boss fighting prowness.
When these pesky āIām so Opā and āWhoa an Archer 3 ā¦ you really dig that way?ā, had their eyes fall out from.
Mulitshot level 15, whoch hit for as much as their op skills ā¦ per hit.
When i was level 90 i fast runned the dungeon just with one tank (krivis).
So that he could take most of the hurt, while we hurried to kill the boss before death sentence would kill us xD.
2 multishot 15 (one full rotation) and some oblique shots.
And the boss was down.
When you do (150 weapon atk+90 char atk+60 str atk + 200ish multishot bonus)1,52*0,8(still had 20% malus then)=1200 base atk
Damage to an flying boss.
And itās not even an crit yet. Which would make it 4~5 times as strong, with an krivis in a party and good crit atk equip.
Krivis Zacialy makes the crit restiance look like a joke. You hit like 90% of the time as crit against bosses even. As logn as you have some dex or crit rate+ gems.
It feeelsss sooo nice.
When you see your first 5k crit ā¦ and then about 20~25 more in short successionā¦
And for the grind.
Solo grind is surely a bit tiresome as arche rin ow level areas.
Egnome isnāt your kind of favorite target.
But heck itās an mmorpg xD. Get into a party and boost your strengths.
While i was sitting and kneelignshot aggroing mobs. The others where hitting away at it ā¦ i killed quite alot like that.
Itās not an easy solo grinder as highlander >barb or mage>pyro>linker.
But their damage falls off rather highly sooner then later.
Multishot 16 hits ā¦ still deals 16 hits of super crit damage if you feel like it.
Ranger lol !!
Guess someoen followed the āHotā dont burn yourself sign xD.
you clearly didnāt get any of the āthe disadvantages before getting to a high crit and crit damage ratio around level 120 are too high for unfunded archer archetypesā. i donāt care about your bossdamage, i never said single target wasnāt strong, and you still keep harping on about how great your singletarget damage is, which isnāt the issue aside from being useless in any area before 120.
so get off your high horse, you are making yourself out to be a pretentious cunt
and yes, i tried multiple builds, one of them being ranger c3, so ā ā ā ā off until you can show me what thought you actually put in the problems of early level archers and how to alleviate them instead of simply going " eh go play in a party and get carried until you reach the boss or have great gear"
archer c2 > sapper +10 iron bow with 2 cooked level 4 crit gems, 2 gladiator band dex XX/ str 50 can pretty much go around and two shot enemies with crits, something he should be doing with way less gear considering how he canāt just mob half the room and kill all those enemies in the same time.
start the game and donāt get any money from older characters or skill/ stat resets and tell me he isnāt leveling at 1/3rd the pace of the other classes with optimal builds and no funding, either because his killspeed outside of flying bosses/ enemies is ā ā ā ā or because he has to grind money to get himself on par with others.
