Archer or Ranger?

Post by Kastus »

I prefer Archer, it has got more Tactics and Poisoning than the Ranger.

I would say Archer as 85 poisoning with an indy cloth still may be able to beat out a Ranger, though with 40 piety, not sure.

Healing rite on yourself. That's how i won most of the priests on 1-1 using a repe-xbow. Yeah i was close to onehit every time the opponent hit me. But with the updates of nowadays. Ranger's can do more than that.

Plus, i'd suggest to try a combo of healing rite + good bow + poison ammonition.

You'll shit bricks to see the outcome ^^

I'd say it depends on many things. There's no clear answer. Generally I'd say Archer if non-religious, Ranger if religious.

Also Ranger for PvM and Archer for PvP, but that's a matter of taste. At least I prefer SMS over Fencing when hunting big.

As we can clearly see, the dev's are putting a lot of effort to balance out classes. Now some player have doupts between the ones to pick.


Keep up the good work folks! :)



PS; Don't pick babas, they're worth nothing :>

That's just another perspective. Do you solo or group hunt.

Yet it's still a matter taste.

Poisoning vs. Piety
Fencing vs. SMS
Tactics vs. Full plates
+10 statscap vs. +5 str
??? vs. Tracking

There's no straight answer.
