Need help with my Archer build

Class and Rank Archer
#1

I wanna run an archer build that has good aoe and single target, and the build I’m planning is

A1/R1/S2/F3

Any tips or things that I need to know about this build (pros&cons @ end game scanario) ?
And can someone help me with skill & stat (str/dex/con) distribution?

Thansk alot! :slight_smile:

Thats my build I’m 2:1 str:dex 50 con @ 231 right now and im loving the play style. It is definitely one of the best single target fletcher builds and a useful aoe class, especially for grinding parties.

For boss; Lay down broom trap > steady aim buff > magic arrow > broadhead > barrage/DMA > repeat (Broom trap can hit all bosses even if flying but some bosses do knock away broom trap, not many tho)

For grinding; Lay down broom trap > 2x stockades inside > magic arrow inside > 3x Barrage > DMA or Crossfire ( After placing broom, stack and MA just play ring-around-the-rosie with the mobs and let them run into all that)

At lvls 170+ you can boost your crit rate with 3 green gems/sissel/manamana so you dont have to get A2 but if you wanna go A2-S2-F3 instead go 1:1 str:dex.

I havent reached ET yet, i’m still at evac but broom trap damage hasn’t fallen off yet and when you combo it with your other skills it can be a 15 circle of death.

I see! this is exactly what I needed! Thank you very much! :smile:

Btw, does traps crit?

And also, do you think arrow barrage will be insignificant at later levels?

no problem dude! ok i’ll break it down by leveling spots in game and cube hunting doesnt really start for fletchers until 170-224+ for magic arrow.

150-175

  • Demon Prison - Easy lay broom in the middle and it kills everything within its duration, its really easy to find a party here and a easy map.
  • Dina Bee Farm - alot of flying mobs here so broom is %50 effective, bust out a 2h bow. Skills like claymore and detonate traps deal %50 more to flying mobs too.

210-250

  • Alemeth/Evacuation - Find a good party, lay down broom trap, MA, stack, DMA, 3X Barrage, and Crossfire/Collar bomb. Some flying mobs always weapon swap from 2h bow and xbow+manamana.

Barrage at single shot gun range does around 10k-13k still with 3 overheats so 30k-39k less if aoe and its only 25sp, its still used @ R7+. DMA does 12k-20k with aoe explosion dmg. Broadhead over 10 sec does 30k-40k single dmg. Crossfire at lvl 1-5 is ok but at 15 it drains too much sp and not efficient. Stockades have 2 overheats and hits 9k-12k on each hit over 10 sec if mobs run into it. Broom trap does 4k-7k each hit for 15 sec and is true aoe skill so 35k-75k and yes all traps do crit. Magic Arrow does 4k-7k x 25 hits so 100k-175k for single target but less if used as aoe.

Just my perspective at lvl 230~~ and im still enjoying my dmg with my archer and its a nice break from PD.

Wow, I really appreciate your help! :smiley: Thanks alot! :smiley:

Btw, is maga bow better or cata shooter+manamana?

And what are your skill distributions?

Lastly, does your crit rate bother you or are you satisfied with it? Thanks! :slight_smile:

for bossing isbality+manamana is the best since most bosses are demon type. and i use SKS for grinding. Khasti bow or Maga are best options for 2h, khasti is a lot cheaper tho, i only use bow for flying mobs.

once you are 170+ crit rate isnt a problem with equips but keep in mind they are very expensive atm sissel 6m+, manamana 5m+, lvl 5+ green gems 400k+ ea, etc. so if it is your first character i recommend going 1:1 str:dex or A2-S2-F3 instead for swift step buff, but bossing for roxona mats as a fletcher will make you millions of silver through market if you can hold on until 220+

There is a lot of leftover skill points on that build because it comes down to playstyle since really you need only to priorities MA/Broom/Broadhead/Barrage/DMA/Stockades/Steady-Aim all your other skills will just help you out grinding mobs, since single target is your main strength.
