Noob questions about archer build

I saw a guide before and I just want to clear if its good.
is 4:2:1 STR/DEX/CON a bad stat? or should I go for 4:2:1 DEX/STR/CON?
why Oblique Shot only lvl 1?

A mix between both stats is fine. You’re the one who decides which one fits your playstyle, but I’d say STR:DEX is more for auto-attack builds and DEX:STR for skill based, since skills will crit as well. DEX will be a little bit stronger than STR late in the game. You will always need good gear to see the improvements anyway.

Check the forums for debates about DEX vs. STR:

As for the Oblique Lv 1 is for “spammability” (low sp cost & no cooldown). It’s most used for leveling early in the game.

If the guide you saw was the one from Boltonsquad, I’d suggest you take a look at this too:

It really does depend on what class you will get on ranks. What do you intend to follow?

@Enkii thanks for the links and info it really helps. yea Bolton was the guide I saw.

@edgardfsoares I’m planning on becoming a fletcher . so is that fine?

I personally think that you should follow the 4:2:1 DEX:STR:CON path until you get the following stats:

50CON => 50 at maximum, you can spend less points in CON if you want to, just get enough of maximum life and then, use your points in DEX instead (after getting 50 con, go for 4:3 DEX:STR Ratio).
230 Crit Rate => 1 DEX = 1 Crit Rate, but you can get crit rate with itens (after getting 230 Crit Rate, go for Full STR).

But the status build is up to you, this is only my personal opinion.

hey thanks! but I saw some threads talking about DEX being weak in level 200 dungeons. because monsters are INT type and their attacks can’t be dodge.

Dex isn’t about evasion, its about crit rate because when skills crit the scalling damage is awesome.
Remember, you are planning being an Archer so you will not tank more than 5 hits from 200+ monsters.

This is the way to go… BUT
I think you shoudn’t pre-made a build of stats and don’t addapt it according your needs
Remember²: You can get extra stats from itens or skills (Max Petamion as item and Swiftstep attribute (+25% crit) from Archer2 as skills).
