Re: A little advice please

If you're taking PvP seriously on an archer: lose the Bushido.

It's a PvM skill or at best in PvP a parry skill.

100+ Skill points for lightning strike + confidence + lesser hiryu really isn't worth it.

on my main PvP red archer i play:

120 Archery
120 Resist
120 Anat
120 Tactics
100 Healing
70 Chiv
the rest on Meditation.

This allows you to survive vs Mages

The chivalry is great for loot rights on a champ & killing tamers pets ( i always carry a dragon slaying bow and a beetle slaying talisman)

Once you have that template (or something similar), you can begin your suit & weapons.

Look for Weapons with mods in this order SSI, HLD, DI, Hit Spell

Try and get a few weapons to cover each situation that arise in PvP.

For Example i carry:

Heavy Crossbow - Dismounts
Bow - Mortal / Stun (my favourite weapon)
Comp Bow - Moving Shot (to finish off a low target offscreening)
and the either
Crossbow - Concussion (Great Damage but a little slow)
Magical Shortbow - Lightning Arrow (Great Vs Mage, fast but damage is a fair bit less than Xbow)

Finally your suit

This needs to be 70 80 60 60 60 in my opinion

the reasons for this is that most dexxers do not have the intelligence to cast consecrate weap, so phys must be high

Necros Will alway corpse skin, follow by explo FS, so keep your fire high. But for some reason they never use poison strike much so the Poison only needs to be 60

the other 2, will hit 60 when you're cursed no matter what, so 60 is fine.

The suit will need decent MR (about 8), 40lmc, 40+ HCI, 170 Stamina after potting, and then if you can afford the pieces, try and get at least 40 EP, and 40DI.
