I have the attribute but I can’t feel/tell any difference because I haven’t extensively been playing “at a distance” from bosses. Whenever I use RS, I “circle” around the boss (as a habit) when I was still doing Mission runs. Now I can’t shake that habit

It’s just a QS habit. I circle boss on qs too. Feels better to move during running shot. I have to remind myself to repeatedly move left-right, and up-down to keep boss facing away from party. (at low lvl siaulai of course)
I’m curious if you were to build a mergen how would you build it?
kneeling a3 already bypass aggro range just fyi. unless the boss has a auto reset positon/ aggro Like 290 bosses

You can do that trick with necro skels as well, though you have to at least aggro the boss once.

Vs ghost armour boss/ice element boss? Krivis taoist lightning damage~.
Have seen quite a lot of mergen combo already:
iToS fletcher -> mergen/hakka.
Ktos fletcher -> mergen/hakka.
iDreamy scout -> mergen (due to capture burst).
A3 Scout3 Falcon1 -> mergen (circling homing arrow is nice).
QS3 A2 Falcon1 Scout1 -> mergen.
A2 Sapp2 Wugu3 -> mergen.
on 12m wb basically who ever have the largest nice bust burst wins. :^)
Taoist +krvis combo is one of them. Fencer, dopple dragoon and musketeer all excel in rotation hp burst(2-3m burst damage in 10-20second). soo yea…
To be honest, I love my Mergen but I had to accept that I am no longer top DPS on bosses and I’m absolutely useless in TBL against teams that has stone skin, shield users, ausrine, 7revenge, prophecy, bloodletting.
Still fun though.
I’m still at the dilemma of picking mergen or hackapell once I reach rank 8 for my A1R3F3 archer. Either seems to be a great pick and so far from what I’m seeing when I explore the higher level maps, it seems to be that AOE would be king yet there is theories that hackapell would be a better fit for R3F3 since it synergises more due to the multi-hit [missile] AA and skills which Skarp would do tremendous damage to whatever that the hackapelle has rounded up. But yes, hackapelle would be a single target boss fighter compared to a mergen aoe caster.
I agree we’d never know how these 2 classes are going to fare once rank 9 releases and it’s a gamble, but the tone of mergen seem to be ‘meh’ and the otherside that tells me mergen would benefit from steady aim, but I also think hackapelle would as well…
So I can’t decide even after typing this out, so I’d like some thoughts from the playerbase who have already reached r8.
Thank you.

can you use magic arrow while mounting? if not then choose mergen

Hackapell is far from bad…

Thanks for your reply. I guess I might as well take the single boss target route and pick hakka.

looks pretty bad to me
That hackapell had 0 attributes leveled. That test was to test the base damage. Currently on KTOS, Hackapells are highly sought after for the new ET floors.
oh, so hackapell is the crit res/defense debuffer one okay.
