Ranger3>Rogue1>SR3 need tips for gear

Class and Rank Archer
#1

Hi all, finally I have chosen to gear up an archer char for end game contest pve since it has basically the same gear has my inqui, so why not.

Now, into the “I’m newbie for archers pls help me” stuff.

I went rogue to almost completely ignore all the theorycraft about dex/str at 1st and to have an optmial build for suboptimal parties (werewolf = crit rate “fixed” in any party), so werewolf build plus max str for me, plus I really wanted to try phada on an optimal char, don’t ask me why lol!

I’m a min maxer at heart and if u need help with clerics I will glad to help :stuck_out_tongue: but since I’m a newbie archer for now I have chosen to stick into a brainless build to not commit any errors while I learn how to play this class :slight_smile:

Given gear:

max petamion
2x phada (slowly farming dawn crystal fragment zzz but I’m almost there) so I will try on really slow evasion 1st
virtov chest + pants
manamana

Now the questions:

a) good sets of crossbow to invest early on and what priority I should give (pls don’t say go for bandit, when I will have one i will equip it, I want to know early end game options)
b) boots / gloves. I was tempted by roxona plate gloves for example but I don’t know if it’s right or not.
c) werewolf cards. 8x are needed or I can split for a little of utility?
d) headslots, what should I focus? Accuracy seems rly desired for a str build, but honestly I have no idea of what I should focus on.
e) 40 con with virtov is enough now or should I aim for more?

That’s it.

Much much love for anybody that will give his/her time to help a newbie archer <3

I dont pretend that you answer all the questions, but at least a couple of points could help eh :stuck_out_tongue:

Since reiter skill use pistol damage, you can boost them by having crossbow with useful +damage stats or other nice stats (you won’t need crit rate/dex since you have rogue & werewolf).
-Lv 170 Karacha crossbow +150 crit damage, +54 on medium type target, +1 movespeed.
-Lv 170 magas shooter, +126 vs plate, +HP, +SP.
-Lv 170 catacombs shooter, +80 attack on leather, +31 physical attack.
-Lv 170 Isbality, +340 vs demon type, penalty vs beast.
Remember to at least upgrade crossbow to +4-5 to negate missile penalty vs medium & large sizes. All archer main-hand weapon have to be +4~+5 to counter [missile] penalty vs medium-type & large-size enemy.

Please take 41 points into CON, 40->41 point will give you +2 point bonus, for archer. You can try it on a stat simulator.

You will get +%HP from your pet when you are mounted reiter.

Headslot you should get Holy property damage, or physical attack.
Yes, take werewolf card (you took rogue for a reason right).

<3 I’m starting with 8x werewolf lvl 5, then optimize the build slowly :wink:

loving the rogue with red gems buff btw, I hope this build will pay out.

for early end game I was thinking to start out with isbality and 3x red gems lvl 5, hope it’s gonna be good enough to carry me the 1st few weeks!

thx!

I know that nobody cares, but I have yet 2 other questions :stuck_out_tongue:

Atm I’m almost capped, looking good with

2x phada (finally ç___ç)
max peta
full roxana plate set (not even bothering switching the gear everytime :p)
8x werewolf lvl 5 (yeah, that’s the true pain and why going rogue is such an hard achievement for so little income ç_ç)
manamana
isbality + catacombs shooter

The 2 weapons that I switch are +5 atm but yet to be gemmed, so here there is question

f) what should I put on weapons in a rogue/werewolf build? Yellow gem? Red gem? green gem?

e) I have also saved some points in the stat build (50+) unsure if after 40 con rest str I should invest some points into dex as well for accuracy and /or a bit of crit rate to go with green gems in mainhand (IF I have to put green gem)

Pls help me, so many doubts right now :frowning:

So much love for anybody is gonna answer this newbie archer :blush:
