Falconner 3 worth it?

i’m A2>Sapper3>Falcon, I do not know if I get cannonner 2 or falconner 3, this char has PVE focus…

Looking at the skills and damages offered by both classes as an archer main it does look like Cannoneer 2 holds the edge on Falconer 3 on any aspect. PvE/ or PvP.

Falconer3 got old on me very fast, but then again it was a QS3 variant. Sapper3 might offer a more dynamic gameplay.

both are fine.
cannon give you burst dmg, whlie falconer give you dps suport.

If you often have party falconer3 is good choice, because circling and aim can increase your party dps vs multiple enemies.
cannoneer is fine, but at present patch of iToS cannoneer2 is still not as good as other dps archer, but we can expect improvement in future.

You sure have a lot of hope in IMC, with the disappointment that was cannon2 i can only see the future and cannon3 being even worse for us.
MFW no hope

don’t go cannon2 unless you wanna join the struggle

falconer is more of a support, while canon is more of a damage, choose what you like doing, sonic strike doesn’t deal that much damagec compare to other class skills but its free cast anyways so can’t complain

at least recent ktos cannon skills (increase %modify+usable while kneeling) make cannoneer situation better(at least we can count on other skills beside cannon blast)

I won’t expect the class to become top tier. what I wish is become decent tier and maybe have some uniqueness.

Class that’s weak because of lower stat have more hope than the class that weak becaus of bug.(because all the dev need is just change the stat, not fix the bug)

I feel that Falconer 3 has the most potential of all archer classes when r9 is out, considering how op triple arrow and arrow rain becomes when you add in aiming and enhanced circling.

Even without it it’s still very good when pair with the right class combination.

Saw some video of Fal 3 players doing insane damage with barrage, using feint + barrage + enhanced circling + aiming combo.

Also saw some vidoes using aiming + flare shot to do really nice aoe damage, it’s like a wider magic arrow that doesn’t has hit count!

When R9 is out, I might respec my scout 3 mergen 2 to fal 3 mergen, if mergen 2 suck bulls XD…

feint+barrage itself is a surprisingly nice burst skill even at r8 maps. my barrage can crit 10k+ already.
we can borrow another rogue feint to execute feint+barrage
we can borrow another falconer circling to execute circling+multishot/homing arrow/triple arrow
sadly any capture combo is rogue exclusive

The difference is enhance circling actually spread the damage, and then times it by 2 or more on the spread damage.

Aiming also ensure that all 5 arrows from barrage will be able to hit every target regardless of their size, which is really nice.

that guy from video has lvl 5 trans weapon 317 and shield, and probably has high lvl attributes, I wouldn’t base on that. unless you gonna main it and invest sht tons of money

Transcend 5 is nothing really.
Anyone can do it, given the time.

That level of damage, other class need equal gear to do it too.
What does it mean? It means that aoe damage is not worse than any other high level aoe spec.
Do you honestly think other ranger spec can easily do 600k aoe damage per rotation with just a crappy non trensence weapon?

why ?? investing rank 2 attribute is cheap and 315 purple weapon with 5 stage trascend is standard for r8 maps mob

thansk guys, I decided that I will be falconer 3
What stats do you guys recommend? I currently have 50 con and dex / str 1:1

Dumb question: If falcon damage/crit rate is based on falconer’s stats, whats the point in spend silver on pet stats?

Falconer3 has an attribute which adds 30% of pet attack to the skills [Hovering], [Sonic Strike], [Pheasant] .

Thanks for the fast answer. Lol would be better if falcon skill was 100% based on falcon stats giving the falconer a free way to stat up.

No thanks, right now hawk max atk is 600, vs my 1769-2584.
Falconer already does low damage being a red icon that’s 90% support, Doing so would leave you dealing even less.

Let’s also not forget that hawk has a lovely armor slot instead of a weapon slot.

Just noticed that now hehe what a mess…
Skipping Falconer for now.

Falconer’s damage does not come from falcon.
Other than auto-sonic strike, you shouldn’t expect your falcon to do the majority of damage.

The selling point of falconer 3 is the crazy synergy with many of the other archer classes.
