Build comparison

sadly that holds the case for all archers except SR3 with his rubbish 1 shot pistol hitting 15 targets LOL.

circling,swift step is basically the 100% critical skill that is good to have skill in all archer trees.

Unless you are a ignore AAR type of archers which is like SR3. or a PVP builds.

I’m still trying to find an archer worth playing in PvE atm over my SR.

I’m sick of just doing steady aim+ drink a pot for glassmole + retreat shot into meltis.

I will probably jump in the train of wugu3/canno2, knowing that to be at least DECENT u need purple xbow + orange cannon + 2x trascende (before wugu3 will ever do dmg) while most people will try with sub par gear to have yet another sh3tty archer for nothing.

If u want ez life go SR
If u want a playable char go mergen (as I said, sap2/falco/mergen looks playable)
If u want a super hard life go canno and level up both weapon

Anyway, wugu3/canno should be ready in 3 weeks from now, let’s hope it will not be another useless 290 char (also couz those are my last practoriums xD)

still need that cannon buff.

any way we are derailing , the cannon showcase from top ktos is eye opening.

So regardless what you choose OP the most important is have fun.

can you tell me why circling help broom trap? i’ve no idea about this.

And circling in this build would give me circling + punji stake combo, but without a scout it could be un pratical? i’m unsure.

Also falconer c3 with a damage dealer class in rank 9 won’t be in meta?

75% chance spread damage circling attribute + aiming.

So mergen future is restricted to be good at rank 9 or get imc’d

If both mergen and falcon will be meta in rank 9 is there point apart for solo game to take circle in falcon? scout flare with aiming and 75% spread attribute is quite OP even if just lvl 5. it stay fo 11 sec and 30+ sec downtime, but can also be used with capture in the dps chek. Always restricted to a falconer3 but it is quite good.

Also circling work with multishoot, claymore, three arrow, broom trap (?) and?

also is not cannon 2 wugu 3 more boss oriented than AoE?

Homing shot.

Wugen with cannon is higher single target dps, but cannon buffs enable to be decent as a AOE contender next to SR.

So it excel in both Single and AOE dps. on Deployment > Poison aoe etc > blast>

Bazooka also affects poison damage.

To add on. Circling/Aiming falconer is extremely good but it requires like you say 8 ranks and banking on Rank9/10 DPS to top it off.

Falcon variant will be the upcoming thing in R9.

Cannoner will have it’s prime of bazooka adding 100% damage as a Immobile set up icon. Best for ET DPS floor check where mobs mindless run to ur barrier aoe.

Musketeer is in a bad state. Hakka seems like 1 rank booster for now to gain defenses and speed stats.

SR is actually in a bad spot but they are effectly Scout v2 in case everything fails.

yes i forgot to mention circling + hoaming arrow combo, also parthian shaft is AAR based.

any way the meta still heavily depends on how Cleric Support wiz/ (Will dps wiz come back?) and swordsman do.

So far swordsman are no doubt still the best AOE PVE as compare to cost efficient of SR

Any way in doubt with mergen questions theres @nicola @greyhiem who can as well assist in these questions.

Meta sup will always be ausrine+meltis+pass for meltis trifecta, unless r9 bring us more “you win” buttons

Look at swordmans shitty in rank 7 rule in rank 8. Archer apart for rank 7 fletcher highest single dps and sw rank 7 and 8 aoe never shine much.

Let’s hope rank 9 bring some fresh air to the game and some balance.

forget to mention sw3 ^^

but @b4nj0 can you tell me how broom trap and circling work together? circling decrease ADR by 5 at c1, broom trap is ground magic circle and is not AAR dependent.

So how they interact?

also linker is going to fall of compared to falcon, almost same effect only 25% less chance but it perform in entire area and not restricted to number of target (10c2 15c3) but ofc for share buff is OP.

each to their usefulness, who knows what happen after stats “remade” which is in the far future.

For now. Linker will enjoy their prime the same goes to austrine ( who they are thinking to tweak). though the real issue isn’t austrine.

The real issue is the whole diev kit being too good.

Linker is not and has never been a meta support class.

-25% CD diev plus -25% cd chrono is OP. too. Austerine is one of the cancer of the game especially in pvp

PPL don’t realize that the true cancer of the game is meltis till they don’t have played with 2 dps with 8x glassmole each (pve speaking) and all buff ongoing

meltis is fine without invulnerability. but on the hand with invulnerability it’s a different level all together

Not true, meltis is good couz u can have all the buff togheter, even if they will nerf meltis + ausrine:

a) 20 sec are more then enough to kill any “boss” in this game (boss, kappa) and in case u can pass meltis and ausrine togheter even before the boss spawn

b) u still have statue silence +clap + cryo stuff + retreat shot nullify attribute + barrier ongoing forever to barely take any dmg at camp. In fact atm in et u don’t even use more then 1 barrier on wave levels couz u don’t need it, go figure what should happen with all those cc + 5 barrier down.

meanwhile, meltis bring u chappa/glass mole 100% uptime (that’s like doubling all your DPS chars) + whatever buff ppl have on (steady aim, retreat shot just to name a few)

But yeah, atm meltis double your dps and gives u infinite ausrine buff…

which will be dealt with if there are no invulnerability and harsh counter play ai measures.

Atm there are none.

They need a EGG r7fold + mana burn to kill off meltis well. pretty much why i say meltis itself alone isn’t good enough. Meltis + invulerability just kills off everything> Glass mole and chap sustain is basically just the icing.

Taling about Eggs, We had another crash at miki right now, got IMCed yet another time…
