Is an Archery / Sword Build possible?

blazer2001

Hi again,

I've been thinking on possible ways to combine archery with sword (dual swords or single sword) powers, do you have any possible build advices you could give me?

Thanks in advance for your help .

I guess you could use Archery for long-range AoE and CC, though the DB/SB powers will be better for sustained dps overall. Something like this:

For a dps version, could just use Night Warrior as the passive (melee dps role if you want to better optimize its dmg). Gears mostly for Dex, w/ some Con and Int.
