New Archer..

Hey all, I made a new Archer the other night (yes i know, im a sellout, a sheep, a follower) And ive been working on him ever since.

I have a couple of questions though:

1. Does anyone have any tips on armor selection? (My template will be a paladin/archer) should I be wearing plate, studded leather, etc. and what armor specs should i be looking out for the most?)

2. Stats, right now im at 101/101/32...should this be changed?

3. Arrows... I seem to be going through them like their goin outa style... where should I be replenishing my supply?

4. I'm up to around 72ish..right now I'm killing lizardmen for skill gains. Does anyone know of a better area to train at this level?

Re: New Archer..

1. Any armor that adds to HP, MR, LMC, high resists. If you're human, stick with medable armor.

2. I go with however much Str needed to keep HP above 100, high dex (140 w/items) and the rest in Int.

3 & 4. Ratman archers (for skill gain and arrows) until you get closer to 80, then go after centaurs (for same purposes).

Re: New Archer..

Only thing I would add is to get as close to the HCI cap as you can as you only gain with a successfull hit.

Re: New Archer..

1. Get a Golem
2. Get a 100% Poison Bow
3. Get about 5000+ arrows
4. Train Away.

It took me about 3 days to 120 Archery 115 Anatomy/115 Tactics.

Re: New Archer..

Had to get this thread back out there as it seems jfk hit the nail right on the head.

This is the funniest thread ever. God we're witty!
