If u go archer c3> scout c3, do u think falconer will be a good option to make multishot aoe better?
If itâs really just to improve Multi-Shotâs performance then yes, it will make Multi-Shot better as AOE. Just remember that Circling isnât enough, you also need to invest on gears that gives AOE attack ratio.
If you have insufficient crit rate, isnât it better to just go for lethena bow +5 for the dex +14and/or Aston bow+5(45 dmg against devil targets) for its raw damage for cheaper options? Or is the 3 gem slots from khasti bow is of importance as well?
The comparison should be about the overall dps increase you get. Khasti Bow totally wins there considering you have Sneak Hit. The 3 gem slot is also a good bonus.
Its a damn good weapon.
I Changed my seimos crossbow + arde dagger for it, and I have 0 regrets. The bow by itself is cheap and have the best cost benefit ratio over any lvl 170 Bows / crossbows + subweapon. Mana mana is too expensive atm, imo.
Ps: Im running a Fletcher atm.
hi guys. im now lvl 215 archer 3 > scout 3 > ?
i know i asked this many times.
im having a hard time which circle to get next, if i go:
falconeer > they say circling is good with multishot lvl 15. but sometimes in dungeons when i cast my multishot it takes 10-15 seconds before it fully charge due to lag they say.
schwarzer reiter > they say retreat shot is good but only on lvl 10. if i get SR it will be only circle 1. and some say SR is only good with running shot/quarrel shooter combo.
cannoneer > id say the skills are good, but my main problem is the auto switching of weapon. if I equip a bow then suddenly cast my canon skills itâll drop my fps and freeze my game for a few seconds which is not really good.
some say just equip xbow+canon all the time, but you see i have my split arrows as my spam skill so if i currently equip a canon it is meaningless and waste of damage. and some say just endure the freeze/lag when auto-switching.
muskeeter > same as cannoneer switching of weapon problems.
so anyone here has problems with auto-switch fps drop, or you just dont mind it?
so what circle should i go next? Thanks.
Solo Play = Cannoneer
Team Play = Falconer
I seriously do not recommend Musketeer. That class is waaay overrated.
really can you tell me why sir? because i was really aiming for musk for my rank 7 (A3>SC1>RO2>Musk build)
I know i am being unfair to the cannoneer class because i never really tried reading info about that class.
and if i can be convinced that it has a synergy with my chosen route, will it be not that too far (the Cannoneer) from what most ppl say about the Musk single target damage output?
Hi Dream,
Wow Iâm in love with your build. My main is actually similar to yours but instead of Scout 3, I did a different approach. My build is A2>R1>S1>Ro1>Fa1 then going on to M1. I am using almost every trick in your guide except for split shot. To compensate, Iâll have more team play and AoE multishot with Falconer and then more dps from Musketeer.
Iâm currently having doubts about Musketeer because since I have no split shot, I donât have a filler when my skills are on cd. Do you think I can improve my build better if I forego musketeer and do cannoneer or some other circle? Iâm still feeling the lack of dps and presence in team fights.
And why do I need to invest on gears with AoE attack ratio if circling already makes multishot/covering fire hit everything?
The class is clunky. Auto-swap is horrible at the moment and freezes your game which causes Snipe to miss half the time. Its worse for Headshot where the skill bugs out and does its cast animation twice before doing damage.
The remaining 3 skills (Penetrating Shot, Butt Stroke, Bayonet Thrust) are such bad skills that any points in them are worthless.
All this leads to sup-par DPS. Sure your burst damage may look impressive but it takes forever to do it and is just plain unfun to play at the moment. So you tell me if you want to play a class with 3 useless skills and 3 more skills that donât work properly due to a game engine issue that probably wonât be fixed for a good long time.
(I have a musketeer. Would not recommend it to anyone)
While I myself do not have a Musketeer. I did calculated their damage:cooldown ratio on their skills and itâs really subpar for a Rank 7 class. Also, Lyraleiâs reply are also huge factors why the class is currently underwhelming, itâs a good read.
Also, I would like to have a comment on your planned build. Archers cannot abandon 2H-Bow because of itâs massive damage output when against flying targets. As a Musketeer, you would definitely need a musket or else you wonât be able to use your skills. Itâs actually fine to abandon xbow+off-hand if you have a 2H-Bow but you have Rogue C2 meaning you would also need an Xbow+Dagger. Thereâs too much investment needed on that build yet itâs performance is currently subpar due to Backstabâs nerf and Musketeer being underwhelming.
While you do get additional dps from Musketeer, they are only just high bursts with really long cooldowns. The actual dps from the class is bad.
IMO, go Cannoneer, it will also have synergy with your Falconer and your Archer C3.
We got the unnerfed Circling. In kTOS, Circling cannot reduce enemyâs AOE defense ratio beyond 1.
Thanks dream for the quick reply. 
Now Iâm concerned with the loss of dps from offhand without arde/manamana if I go cannoneer especially with my multitarget skills like multishot, feint>barrage, and double flare shot. You think the tradeoff is worth it?
Another option I can see is that I go A3 for multishot 15 and twin arrows. Which path do you think would be better?
Well just considering AOE damage, the trade-off is definitely worth it. You would lose some output on single target though but IMO not that significant.
There are numerous of possible builds with an Archer C3. Try roaming the forums for that. I canât really bother to suggest each and every possible builds.
Oh I meant A3 vs Cannoneer hahaha
Oh ⌠I prefer Cannoneer.
Okay Iâll just go cannoneer. Thanks for the advice
Iâm still planning to do your build sometime in the future xD

broo⌠i got a question⌠what do you think about flare shoot + Circling (Falconer) ?
double Flare + Circling� hmmm⌠is it posible.?
Circling doesnât affect flare shot. Flare shot already hits everything inside its aoe
oh⌠too bad⌠thx anywayâŚ
@Dream if i change path to Archer>Ranger>Archer2>Scout>Rogue>Scout2>Scout 3âŚ
slower or faster leveling�
