My First Character: Archer! Any suggestions/changes?!

Citan Uzuki · 28th September 2006, 12:59 PM

Heres my first character: Bush/Chiv Archer, works very well right now(has a nice hiryu companion too). I sit back with enemy of one and lightning strikes so my arrow always flies straight! I kinda split my skills funny, anyone have any suggestions to make it better?

100 arch
100 tact
100 Ana
67 heal
100 MagRes
68 Focus
90 Bush
75 Chiv

well, what are you doing with 67 healing? =/

drop focus and get a good stam suit

Citan Uzuki · 28th September 2006, 01:05 PM

I was thinking about dropping focus, its just that I use Lightning strike every attack, and some chiv skills, afraid ill be out of mana all the time. You think droping focus wont hurt that much?

Something like this?

100 arch
100 tact
100 Ana
100 heal
100 MagRes
35 Focus
90 Bush
75 Chiv

I'm glad to help. If test shard is open, you should test it all before implying (?) it on your main chars and what not

You just PvMing?

Citan Uzuki · 28th September 2006, 01:34 PM

Yeah, been just PvM'ng. Wouldn't know where to start for PvP or if this character would even be viable.

I would raise your weapon skill to atleast 110-115. Go 110 anat/tact. Focus is such a waste of a skill in this game, that you dont need it. You can get your mana back by wearing MR pieces and having mana leech, although on archery you get less mana leech from the current nerf, which is why I would get rid of archery and use a real weapon to start with. Other than that, you got a good start.

Ok, I thought about it and I really do want to keep archery. I might switch later to swords. This is what I came up with:

110 arch
110 tact
110 ana
100 heal
100 MaRes
90 Bush
80 Chiv

Ill just get mana regen items to make up for focus. Maybe leech on bows.

What you guys think?

If I do switch to swords, should I switch a skill for parry?
