Help with Falconer 3

Hi, I have little to no experience with the archer classes and I would like some guidance regarding skill and stat distribution for my new Archer 2 -> Sapper 3 -> Falconer 3 (ET focus). I have seen some guides around but for falc3 for instance there are discrepancies like:

  • How much Dex is enough?
  • Max circliing or not? I’ve heard 5 points is enough
  • I’ve seen either Pheasant or Hovering maxed, whats the ideal choice for ET groups?

Thanks in advance!

  1. It really depends on your equipment. For a Sapper, Dex is less important than for a QS3Falco, so you can think of Dex mostly in terms of Block Penetration and Critical Attack. If you have equipment that gives you a lot of crit rate, going Dex for the Crit Attack is a good idea. Otherwise, you should get enough for a reasonable Block Penetration and invest the rest in Str.

  2. AFAIK, the max AoE Defense an enemy has is 5, so Lv5 Circling is enough for the current content.

  3. Probably personal taste here, but I rarely use Hovering because I feel Pre-emptive Strike + Sonic Strike deals a lot more damage. I personally have Hovering at 3 for the attribute and maxed Pheasant.

I find 100 dex (total, not invested) a nice value as it gives a good block penetration and attack speed, the high cooldowns of Sapper-Falcon makes that you AA a lot of times so I think that it’s worth.

5 in circling is enough for the content that we have right now, we don’t have any monster with AoE defense bigger than 5.

Pheasant is a nice way to cancel Circling while doing damage, interesting enough Hovering causes more damage than Preempetive Strike in a single target,but if it have more than one monster the damage drops a lot. But for you question, Pheasant is more useful for ET because it’s an unlimited AoE move to cancel circling.

Thanks for your replies!
