Scout c3 question

Class and Rank Archer
#1

currently im archer c3 > scout c2 .
i wanna ask what weapon will i use with split arrow? is xbow+arde good? or just stay with bow with high damage? or with viper bow? im confused, will the additional poison property attack if it adds with split arrow skill? in general thus arde/viper adds damage in skill/split arrow too? or is it only in auto attacks?

also can someone explain me, the 200% damage bounce shot of split arrow where does it base? is it on weapon damage x200%? skill damage x200%? or physical attak x200%?

p.s. dont try scout c3 if you dont have patience. its really hard, you have no aoe and low dps. i envy ranger’s barrage so much. if given a chance to reroll ill go for sapper/ranger/fletcher.

2H-Bow is the main weapon of Scout. Crossbow’s low base damage will hinder Split Arrow’s huge modifiers.

Let’s say your PATK is 800 (Catacomb) with Crossbow and 930 with 2H-Bow (Khasti). Just considering the modifiers of Split Arrow, not taking the fixed damage into account. Also ignoring the crit attack values.

Crossbow’s splitting arrows will have 1600 base damage. 2400 if it crits.

2H-Bow’s splitting arrows will have 1860 base damage. 2790 if it crits.

But Crossbow can use sub-weapons such as Arde Dagger for additional damage!
Since the fire atk bonus from Arde is final additive. Crossbow’s damage will be 2400+153 = 2553 which is still not enough to outdamage 2H-Bow’s splitting arrow damage.

The advantages of 2H-Bow gets bigger as more multipliers gets involved obviously. Like when you upgrade your Split Arrow damage attributes or when fighting against flying enemies where my Split Arrow does almost 15k crits.

after a3-c3 whats the best next rank to get?

#4

Falconer if you want your Lv15 Multi-Shot to be AOE. Or get Cannoneer for it’s AOE capabilities since Split Arrow is limited to just 3 targets while Earth Tower actually spawns massive waves of mobs.

Exactly what he says. I would go for Cannoneer personally due being a rank 7 class… Bow would be yours best weapon.

if i go a3-sc3-canoneer, do i still use bow for split arrow? or use xbow+canon in split arrow? because i dont think it will auto swap to bow if current equip is xbow+canon if i use split arrow?

Damage formula thread by EternalDream. They were discussing about it last time I checked.

Edit: Wierd. I think I might’ve misread. I was looking for it but I might’ve misunderstood since I was half-skimming through posts. I’ll correct my post earlier.
