Archer 2:
kneeling shot lv 3 gives you an attribute to get +50 attack while using it
Oblique lv 1 is really nice, not only it works as a decent 0 cd filler (and trust me, you’ll need it) it also slows targets, including bosses (at the cost of a extra sp per use, of course).
Leftovers points: Optional one point wonder heavy shot to spam on plate armor, rest = fulldraw. full draw is amazing. if you don’t want the extra attack on kneelingshot or heavyshot, drop everything on fulldraw.
unfortunately I went kneeling shot 5 so my fulldraw lv 3 does not last for a decent amount of time, still enough to drop 2x multishots at least but I wish I had it lv 5
Sapper 2
which trap you’ll maximize depends on how effective that ktos claymore buff actually is. currently I have detonate traps lv 10. if claymore stays bad (and I think it will), I would keep it lv 1. stockades are really nice, they deal 3 hits each time the mobs pass thought it and you can force then to pass it multiple times, also has a overheat so in the worst case it’s a 6 hits pierce damage nuke plus material for detonate traps. being pierce damage they deal extra damage on leather armor (which resist broom trap’s strike) so is a great complement
Detonate traps + multishot with a bow is your best tool to burst flying mobs, lv 1 is enough because what really shines are the special anti-air attributes but even so, I prefer more damage here than on stockades or claymore. You can activate it on 4 magic fields, so 4x 350% damage on flying mobs is huge + bow mastery, if you link then with fulldraw, you can hit damage cap easily
Scout:
lv 5 cloaking for that almost 100% uptime, you’ll really appreciate it in the long run. Flu is a one point wonder. flare shot / barrel 4/5 depending if you want extra blocks from barrel or not, I went flare 5 barrel 4.
Falconer 3 is simple, 0 hovering till we get the new attribute. some people say that circling 4 is enough but I went 5 just in case something bigger appears. Since I made this character even before r8 was announced, I took hovering 3 + atk speed buff (really made life a little bit easier at rank 6/7) but not worth the dps loss and the trouble when you get to r8.
killing some lv 300k hp mobs with modest gear, circling expand attribute lv 5 only (25%)
Looking to see more Falconer Sappers, specially with the new class reset thing. Rip Quarrel Shooters.
