Questions regarding the Archer tree (includes Scout & Hunter skills)

Class and Rank Archer
#1

  1. Archer C2 & Scout - Can I cast Kneeling Shot while in Camouflage? Is there any skill from the whole Archer tree that can be used/casted while in Kneeling Shot status?

  2. Scout - Besides QS3’s Running Shot, what other skills can be used while in Camouflage status?

  3. Scout C3 - I’ve read that Perspective Distortion can be used while in Camouflage - will using it NOT break Cloaking?

  4. Scout - How useful (or useless) is Flu Flu in both PVP and PVE scenarios? Is it even worth a point?

  5. Hunter C2 - Can I Retrieve directly/by itself or does it require using Coursing/Snatching first? Will using it stop/cancel Coursing/Snatching’s duration?

  6. Hunter C2 - Can I use Hounding and Pointing at the same time or will one cancel the other?

Thanks in advance!

you can use kneeling shot,flare shoot, and perspective distortion with cloaking, but if the enemy start taking damage from any of your offensive skill,it cancels the cloaking effect. swift step, steady aim, feint and any buff skill wont cancel cloaking

Only 1 skill may be used during kneeling shot: musketeer 2 penetration shot with attribute.

The tooltip of perspective distortion is wrong. It will drain %SP per second. The skill currently states flat sp.

Flu flu has no effect on players (just damage). Barrel is best defensive block for pvp and pve. Invisibility is great for pvp too.

You can use pointing & hounding at once, it has a special effect on the pet (unintended effect). Using several pet attack skills at once is highly likely to bug the pet (will not attack anymore).

Coursing; using another skill before full coursing duration has ended will bug pet. The pet will always stay at its location and finish the whole coursing duration (even if target has already died). Higher lvl coursing = longer duration. You cannot cancel coursing, but you can move the pet if it is a cash pet (mount it). After unmounting it will continue coursing for the remaining duration.

Retrieve: will be canceled if pet touches you. So you may end it manually. Pet will retrieve with very fast speed if you use point/hound before using retrieve (unintended effect). So retrieve will end very early if you cannot outrun your pet.

Pet will always target closest target to you and the pet if you use coursing or snatching.

Retrieve will correctly aim at your selected target.

You can use retrieve without coursing/snatching.

@Composition is hunter pet master. Maybe he can add some more info.

5. Snatching is not a channeling skill. It attack and applies dot.

Careful on using cloaking once you’ve taken damage after casting cloaking, your cloak will be disable, you can’t cast jump cloak(animation cancel), cloaking will also be disabled.

After getting poisoned/bleeding and you cast cloaking, cloak effect will also be disable.

Nah, it behaves just like coursing, snatching & rush dog. Meaning it will target whatever is in your character’s line of sight.

Also, if the enemy’s flying type you may use snatching and then coursing/retrieve, it’s amazing.
