Yes he does..since hes not casting any spells

i got a question too:

Do archer require STR at all, for def, or whats the best way to stat an archer?

Can a DEX/CON archer last at higher lvls?

---

imo have no int enougth str for light armour rest into dex you need be able crit and evade for archer thats about it

con is not going to help much

---

Con is important for every class if you wish to survive anywhere in the higher level'd areas

I highly doubt that to be honoust, that means if a someone gets up close the archer only does 12,5% of his normal damage? Kinda hard to believe man...

Hi, I'm playing PW Philippines, I don't recommend getting con for archers since it doesn't help much. My stat distribution is 1 Str, 4 Dex per level (Can also be 2Str/3Dex). You could put con if you're going to be PVPing alot. Int is a big no, If you want Int as a main stat, I suggest choosing Wing Kin mages (Yu Ling)

There are 3 types of armor sets that can be bought from the shop:
Heavy Armors require high str + low dex (Has high phy defense, Low magic defense)
Light Plates require medium str + medium dex (Medium phy defense, Medium magic defense)
Manteaus require low str + high int (Low phy defense, High magic defense)

The sets I'm using are the medium str/dex armors since it offers a balance defense. I won't need really high defense since I'm always kiting, and that's what are archers are forced to do since there's a damage penalty if a monster is attacking you in melee range.

I don't know about the Wing kin mages but the Wing kin archers has a skill (Wing Barrier/Feather Shield) that blocks xx damage and lasts for 20 seconds. And also recovers xx mp every 3 seconds, up to 6 times. Which is cool since monsters deal 3-5 damage to you plus it pays for its mp cost. And if a monster is too strong you can always fly, wait for 5 seconds, then the monster will leave you alone. Keep in mind though that this skill, and some other, require Vitality/Vigor to cast, Vitality/Vigor is the yellow gauge being filled when you're attacking or using skills that don't require Vigor to cast.

About Magic Defense
Oh and there are also monsters that use magic as normal attack. Hence, the magic defense of your armor is used. And since you would battle mixed monsters from different areas, a balanced defense is recommended.


Can I put some points on Int?
I don't recommend this, You have a fair amount of mp for your skills even without adding points to Int, and mana potions are cheap. It won't even be a problem with air fights, just get a handful of mana pots.

About the bows
You won't have problems with this because it requires dex (and a little str), and its kinda not good not to pump stat points on dex when you're an archer.

Hope this helps ^^

I say somethink about my 26 Archer....sry 4 bad english

I skill Str to heavy armor. Why? 90% of all enemys at beginning make phy-damage.
But i have enought Dex for next level weapon.
With level 26 i can't use every new heavy armor...but i have a easy low level live
Vit:5
Str:60
Dex:75 --->dont use slingshot level 28..my Cross Bow is to good
Int:5
I have over 800 phy-def an ~500magic.

The Feather Shield is very good i think...
I have it on level 4(or 3 ?.?)...absorbs 380 damage and recover more mana as need.
Its a survival spell ...
