Archer ==> Best Practices

Post by **AxlTrozz** » 08 Sep 2006, 17:04

I wonder if there is a perfect way to evolve as an Archer, so i decided to ask to all the old well experienced and the new ones also wath do you think is the best way to be an Archer...

As an archer you should only skill dex and agi.

Vit isn't necessary. There are no monster ingame you can't hit&run. So you won't take any hits.

Str doesn't affect bow damage. The only argument for skilling strength would be to be able to carry more arrows, but the world is currently so small that you needn't hoard them.

Int is completely irrelevant at the moment (and is unlikely to become relevant)

Luk could be interesting for making critical hits from time to time, but without crit enhancing equipment this doesn't do much. Putting the points in dex to get more damage is more useful.

I started skilling Dexterity up to 50 to have good hits and be abble to kill stronger creatures getting more XP. Then i mixed between Dexterity and Agility. But when you become higth level i think you don't need more then 50 of Agility . When you get 50 of Agility save your Remaining Status Points just for Dexterity i think its the most important.

Me:

I have some casual Remaining Status Points on Vit. and Stre. just for fun.

But is useful to reach more than 100% in my acc. ?

Or have an Archer to concentrate in Agility after you reach 100%

Yes. 100% isn't the maximum.

You can think like two good ways:

1- I have very higth Dexterity, so i hit "a lot" and i will kill the creature before it hit me.

2- I have Dexterity and Agility balanced, so when the creature hit me i will have a good chance that it miss.

Both are good options.

I got 2.

This mean that if i have the short bow (+50 ) in some point my damage is not going to rise anymore. or how can i increase the bow damage? (if any way). by my own experience my damage with short bow can be something between 50 and 104 why ?

bow damage is affected by dex.

Do my leather shirt, boots and my fancy hat affect my dex. or acc. ?
(i know they improve my def.

As far as i know there is no stat modifying equipment ingame.
