About hunter, looks like pet stop atk when you use some skills, how it really works ?
Right now, I’m stuck in this situation, just can use the archer skill for leveling, cant even use any trap 'cause they’re so expensive! Is it any way to earn money fast in future (from level >40) ? 
you think ranger r2 is enough to be useful??
It stops attacking whenever you use coursing, snatching or pointing from c1 skills. Level rush dog then praise then leave skill points if you plan to go c2 hunter to quickly get rush dog to 10.
Stake stockades are reagent free and deal reasonable damage. Oblique shot helps a lot too. The problem is not the money income.
Falcon from Falconer is considered a pet ? Or can I have a pet + falcon ?
Something like that can work ?
what do you think about switching full draw lvl 7 to get oblique lvl 10? I’m not liking how full draw works, it feels kinda buggy and the skew doesn’t work most of the time (idk if its cause I’m laggy), and oblique is quite useful
When you get to chapel dungeon and will have no AoE damage, you will know why skew from fulldraw is useful. It will be the only real useful skill you have in your arsenal other then multishot. And it will help the party a lot.
Other then oblique straight up being an SP suicide at lvl 10. I have it at 3, I’m a hunter now and I wouldn’t change it. This is my 3rd character with one of them having it on 7, it was already an SP drain that was too big to handle already and it really doesn’t increase your dps that much. It’s mostly a cheap way to target 2 targets at the same time while the damage from skill adds nicely to the +100% damage vs flying mobs.

Thats what I was wondering, I’m only lvl 35, and spamming it at lvl 3 already drains my sp really fast.
Another thing, earlier you said that hunter was BS, not worth it at all, now it seems you’ve changed your opinion. Is your build at tosbase updated? Is hunter good like you’re saying?
@lajkonikes could you give me more details on the ranger r3 > scout > rogue build? I assumed ranger wasn’t really worth it without R3. Also, could you explain fulldraw to me? I’m playing on keyboard mode and pretty much tab targeting. I’ve never managed to land full draw on two targets.
Planning to do a Archer C2 -> Quarrel Shooter -> Wugushi C2 -> Schwarzer Reiter
What skills do you pump for Schwarzer Reiter o_o…?
too bad full draw skewer lower you damage to 1/3, so if you normal attack does 60, instead you do 20 ~_~
this is with 2 enemies, i’ve never seen how much lower damage if 3 enemies; so this skill is ■■■■ for AOE replacement, its more like a utility bind…
There are Quarrel shooters here? I have my build Archer > Ranger > Quarrel and bought a crossbow. While I’m shooting, the normal shoot or the Stone Shooter, my char constantly get stuck, I can only run after I jump, sometimes she does walk, but does’nt run. I don’t know if it’s a bug or just lag. Anyone else experiences this?
Thoughts about my lvl50 Quarrel Shooter C2 experience and piece of advice:
Archer > Quarrel Shooter > Quarrel Shooter
Attributes to get as soon as possible:
- One-handed bow mastery lvl5 (Archer master) -> ignore 25% of target defense
- Shield mastery lvl4 (Quarrel Shooter master) -> can block incoming projectiles while granting a physical attack boost, not bad !
Skills:
- Rapid Fire: good in-line damage, very good range
- Multi Shot: good damage at low sp cost
- Scatter Caltrops: I love this one, lvl7 at the moment, getting better and better and hits hard
- Teardown: does great damage, I like to combo Deploy Pavise for the knockback and immediately Teardown to deal damage.
- Stone picking and Stone Shot: still at lvl1, still useful and does okay damage. Not sure if it’s worth upgrading it because of the high SP cost. Very lag-sensitive as @nandhuco noticed
Stats:
STR/DEX 2:1 (60/30 right now)
Overall, more and more enjoyable ! I will go C3 for sure
Are you investing any points into CON? for the block rate? planning to make a quarrel shooter too.
I have no CON but I guess it could be very interesting, especially coupled with Shield Mastery attribute, you would be very very resistant to incoming arrows.
EDIT: actually I’m going for some CON right now
Anyway, talking about archer. I am wondering what is wrong with Archer’s animation of normal/spammable attack. Whenever I use other skills, the delay is tolerable. But whenever I use normal attack, the arrow just won’t come out soon.
oh no, it’s not updated. edit: updated it now.
I have a love/hate relationship with my hunter. Pet really needs a buff in terms of speed/responsivity/area of targetting enemies.
If you compare it to one of the mobs you can call for you from the blue orb for example, that’s the type of resposiveness I’d like to see on the companion. They attack who you attack, they follow you around, hell they attack on their own even. The pet is much more docile, and much more movement speed wise slower too - so there are times where mobs just outrun him unless the hunter stands in a spot to let the pet deal damage in. Yes, he does great damage then, but I don’t think an archer is ment to be played this way. A hunter is not a tank, it’s neither a dodge machine. Maybe hunter into rogue with the evasion bonus from rogue will work fine, because then you can tank 20 mobs on you and not get damage. As it is, it’s a bit wonky and definitely needs polish, but damage wise it’s good.
It’s a more of a I’m going to stand here and shoot while my pet’s autoattack will kill everything that comes close and attacks me. Like a turret with spikes around, I’m more of an active player so I went back to my archer 2 -> qs for now to get him to wugushi and see how that works.
@tampwn I gave the rundown a couple of times in this topic already while giving opinion on other people’s builds of this kind.
@jelly Limacon for single target heavy hitting no cooldown skill, running shot for the best aoe in archer tree from all the archer clases yet, aaand I’d say caracole, it has a nice aoe if I remember correctly so I’d go with that. Concentrated fire if you like a sort of multishot. I’d go with caracole, I’ll be focusing my SR on aoe damage though.
sorry I read through the whole thing and hadn’t seen any ranger 2 builds =(
