Scout c3 remains viable?

Class and Rank Archer
#62

Spit arrow provides non stop pressure, linker can’t do that. The cooldown is just to long on it. so you always have downtime. Reason why i rolled a scout 3 is for this very reason.

Enchanter is fun and all, but so can a scout use jp scrolls ( if they are scrolls didn’t readed much up about it lately ) which makes enchanter advantage kinda void.

Split arrow will throw shots on 3 monsters constantly forever, with loads of dmg on mob 2/3, barrage + feint is a 300k burst cooldown and 2x flare shot will make live really easy.

People with comments about scout 3 being useless, are just kidding themselves. Split arrow + flare shot are really good skills.

Scout3-Musket-Mergen videos. You may decide on damage worth yourself. Weapon is at least +15.

Split Arrows bounced hits are random. It hits just as long as you use Split Arrow and not forever. Around 1/3 of the/my hits are not bounced - skill is bugged. Can a Scout do high end damage to become future proof? Yes but with help of other selected cls. - the barrage feint combo is an example for this.

No. I just face the facts and ackknowledge that the Scout isn’t that great after all. I know their stranght but: For DPS you can take another class, maybe Sapper c2; for Support you should go for something else. The Scout cls. need an improvement - specially in the supportive part. There is are reasons why the Scout above c1 hasn’t a high usage and the most, I met, are base on the Feint-Barrage-Combo. Fanboy’ing/Fangirl’ng doesn’t help.

Scout3 is great for farming but does not perform that well on high level mobs or grinding parties (having a linker present doesn’t mean much, almost every class becomes viable if you have a dedicated linker)

You usually need to spec into something in ranks 7/8 to compensate for the lack of true aoe.

Mergen is looking underwhelming as a class, all of their attacks are just single-hits for small amounts of damage.

Split Arrow is a very strong version of oblique shot.

Can’t decide whether making a scout3 to farm silvers is okay. Probably okay on mobs from 175-230~, and dungeon rushes. Need silvers for falcon3 attribute.

the moment you said

you lost all credibility in this and any other thread, please exit

Just to be fair, item trans is a strong point for Scout C3 attrativeness as a cheap to make char.

You can just have a jacked Bow and call it a day.

Most other Archer builds have to change between bow/crossbow+pistol/dagger/cannon/musket

Really agree on lack of better AoE.

In the video you will see scout3 split arrow is struggling vs large amount of mobs. The damage is not enough. Later on in the game the HP of enemies will be even higher. The AoE of split arrow is very slow to kill them.

The dreamy ranger-scout3-rogue build is specialized towards nuking (less for AoE). An AoE version would be Archer3-scout3-Falcon1.
Vid of scout3 at Uphill Def - problems vs many mobs.

#70

This is why I prefer the A3 Falconer build to Ranger Rogue.

#72

That was supposed to confirm your statement about scout3 = problems with AoE.

#74

I think you are misunderstanding something. I posted a vid to verify your statement. Edit: It’s okay, I must be more clear, will edit post.

#75

Oh i see. I’m really sorry about that, I’m an idiot. Retracting statements.

Confirmed guys, you can capture mergen arrow rain, gg for idreamy scout build:

#78

That is very nice!
Second verification should be whether it is a true AoE. Keep in mind the CD of capture is quite high. Captured flare shot + arrow rain + manual flare shot + manual arrow rain would be a nice nuke.

With 70~100% attribute on this arrow rain, scout 3 rogue mergen burst for bosses will be awesome.

#80

Check this:

With capture + double flare shot MoA would be down in a sec.

#81

Flare Shot > Arrow Rain > Capture … Double Flare Shot + Double Arrow Rain while triple Feint Barraging a Boss from behind whilst under the effect of Sneak Attack and then dropping my Multishots, while still having Split Arrow to spam infinitely during any downtime…please you plebs, tell me again how weak my scout 3 is. I’m talking to all the “experts” who have been chiming in lately that have never even leveled one.
