New ToS Player looking for archer build

Hello, guys!
Well, I`m starting to play this game, and I’d like to know if Archer is a good class to begin with, since it will be my first character, what build should I follow? Any other tips?
Thank you!!

What are you looking for? Support? AoE? Farm silver? Single-target? PvP?

Or tell us which specific circle do you like so we can help you how to build it.

My suggestion would be either something that has QS or SR, since those classes are the funnest to farm on due to their mobility and their relative cheap start up price. For SR you only need a Manamana and for QS you only need a decent weapon or you can buy a didel grand cross for about one million, which you will accumulate by the time you hit around lvl 220, which is the required level to equip it.

By choosing one of those, it’ll set up a farmer for you to progress in this game and work your way towards a more expensive spec, such as falconer

Cleric might be best for new players. You will have heal.

Try ranger3 > archer2 > schwarzer reiter3. I recommend this build. You will easily farm silver on reiter builds. It will take some time to gear up because it is your first character.

Easier build for new players is QS3 > archer2 > reiter3. QS3 running shot is easy, you won’t use it after you reach reiter. Play QS if you have low lag, attackspeed affected by ping.

Short answer “no”.

Long answer “no”. Archers are basically dps builds in different packages. All dps builds need a suped up weapon and those cost a lot of luck and silver. Even “support archers” cost a buttload of silver (falconer3 = 24m on 1 attribute).

What you want as a new player is a chaplain (cleric1-priest3-chaplain) variant. IMC has made sure you can’t build def/mdef to not take damage anymore. You WILL take damage and that means pots or healing. Clerics heal so that takes care of that. Your primary damage will come from [blessing]. It is purely stat damage from SPR so you don’t need a suped up weapon.

Since Im new to the game, I dont know how these classes work. But I always played PvE characters in others MMO games.

Play around a bit.
Mind: weapon restrictions and mounted status (click a skill to check the specifics). Some skills are bow-only, some skills pistol-only, cannon-only. Some skills will dismount you.

archer > ranger > fletcher and mergen class is good for boss hunting
