New to archer class

[aolgado1]

hello i decided to roll an archer and have a couple of questions

1.) aside from ranger1-3(dmg) and archer2(crit) are there other class exclusive buffs that gives percentage?
2.) why do people not take ranger3? does steady aim not that good? how about steady aim attribute is it good?
3.) does the dmg reduction from bows still exist?
4.) if i ever go a2>r3 what classes would synergize with me?

edit: if somebody could link me a good archer guide, that would be great

IMO bro, choose what class in archer that YOU really like, then search a guide for it, that’s what i did. Because it’s really not fun playing a character that you just followed through people’s opinions because its the most effective class (or class path) now. have fun playing bro this game has lots of things to explore for new players like us.
