in addition is Divine Machine arrow monster gem good too? or nah?
not sure i find other gem lackluster. If i have a 2nd choice I would pick multi shot or barrage.
how about steady aim gem for +1% dmg for overall skill? barrage and multishot cant be placed at glove,iirc
My max attack is 3600-ish.
I donāt think you can sell or trade a transcended weapon. Also, I would never break it to get shards back because I put so much work into it. If I ever get a better bow, I would just use this one on my alt.
If you have the time and energy to work towards Astra Bow, good luck.
But if youāre just starting now, I still suggest Aufgowle bow because then you wonāt regret spending all that time to get Astra Bow when a new r9 weapon comes out thatās a lot better.
Thatās the trend of MMO anyways. With new level caps and new content, the new weapons has to be a lot better so that new players can catch up.
How about Sakmoli (Cloaking) gem on Gloves? Level 5 cloaking has a 1 second downtime due to casting animation and the Sakmoli gem will remove that.
what u mean bro? every game have the best weapon/gear from current patch, and then get outdated, the normal is farm/invest the current and when gets outdated just get the new ones, donāt make any sense get a weapon thatās bad than the new ones, cuz always will be patch, following your logic, itās wate get r9 weapon cuz will be rank 10, itās a waste get rank 10 cuz will be rank 11, lols.
i think is just not worth it investing the hardest weapon when you can get purple weapon with lower price , better invest your attribute, card etc
question is whats the highest DPS gain
It takes over a month to farm for 315 orange weapon. It costs 14m silver to open 3 slots. It costs 3.5m to upgrade from +6 to +7. It costs 2m to upgrade from +4 to +5. You do the math. Is it worth doing it just now when it gets replaced in a couple of months?
315 Purple is good enough.
i agree with Tenku, 315 purple weapon is the budget weapon of R8. 2nd BiS weapon (or 3rd BiS weapon if we include solmiki bow) isnt that bad actually. When it is still R7 archer using marksman or lolo bow is quite rare, on the contrary light gorithos is very common sight eventhough it isnt BiS bow of R7. Of course it is up to each of you to pursue 315 orange, but for the sake of sanity we recommend 315 purple weapon.
i donāt think r9 or better gears will be coming anytime soon let alone a couple months 
iād say weāre at least a good 6+ months away
quit your exaggerating.
care to make a bet that it wonāt be out in 2 months?
Thanks so much for this guide and can we please just Pin this to top of archer thread?? These information are like gold for newbie archer mergen wannabe (baby mergen).
I reset my character level 255 from A2Sapper2Fletcher3 to A2Ranger2Fletcher3. Scout is good but I really want a little bit more from Ranger1 steady aim. So far Iām happy with my character!
Now iām working on maxing attributes, and gears with gems and maybe stat reset in the future. Definitely need CON since I die so easy.
Magic arrow is just s3xy <3
donāt forget to socket yellow gems into your top/bottom

I got 1 question about Scout Cloaking .If Cloaking Combo with Mergen Triple arrow. I wonder cloaking 50%+ physical dmg will affect 3 arrow of Triple arrow skill? cause i saw Triple arrow are dmg output in the same time, I wonder cloaking will affect those 3 arrow or 1 of the arrow? TQ~ cause i still struggle to reset A2>R1>s1 or A2>R2~ but 90% i will go for A2>R1>S1~
Hopefully can answer my question about this. Thanks you~ sorry about my English.
Iāll check when the server is live.
