So i hear that one should norm attack robies to kill them, but i know that at 90+, they get around 50% DR.

lights+heavy armor, sounds like it should mainly be the metal skills. I was wondering about how much DR they have that makes them so unkillable for norm attacks.

thanks!

p.s.
archers still **** arcane/light at high levels right?

    LA clerics, especially experienced ones in PVP, are tuff...Really tuff.
    My people, some of them have run away to the hills
    and have no shelter. No food, no one knows where they are,
    hear me my chiefs, I am tired. My heart is sick and sad,
    I will fight no more....

    Light is a tradeoff. You can use either metal or physical - depending on what you're throwing at them at the time.

    Against Robes normal shots will do - skills will hurt too. Its a trade off between damage now or casting time for damage later.

    As for light armors, just hope to critical.

    Light Armor clerics are as good as paper as long as you critical. Key word critical.

    i think for archer, LA cleric are the hardest for duels, first your damage is really weak compared to them and your lighting attacks are still relatively weak since they m-def buff themselves, so killing them takes a long amount of time. As we all know, the longer the duel goes, the more the archer will be at a disadvantage.

    To kill anything as an archer at your 9X levels

    skill chain: for a demon archer, level 99
    1. Sharpened Tooth Arrow - [reduce target's HP by 16% - makes a difference in being a 1 shot or not, 10% increase to critical hit for 15 seconds for yourself]

    2. Stunning Arrow / Aim Low [stun - another critical hit rate by 10% for 10 seconds]

    3. Triple fury [add 500% weapon damage and increase attack speed by 25% for 15 seconds]

    4. (Deadly Shot) or (Thunder Shock + Thunderous Blast), depending on the type of character and armor you are fighting against.

    If anything survives this combo, it's either a lucky barb or it's your unlucky day Or keep the target out of minimum range.

    Iam one of the only EA's i see using this to start a fight 90% use stun.

    Sharptooth isnt benificial because of its intial hit, but due to the fact it last when heiro ticks and you down them so its basicly -32% HP + dmg.

    Kradlord, Lrod, Starris, Maguro, Yourself and believe it or not Shinzoko. That makes 6 of us who uses ST in PVP.
    I use it against WB and WRs, it makes up for my low damage. As they usually survive my 1 shot arrows by 50 ~ 100 HP damage wise. Anotehr reason is demon archer and I could use the critical % spike.
    I'm a vit based build and I depend on spike damage and sparks to kill players a lot.

    ofc, this works in surprise attacks only, on a head on collision, I prefer Stun, Aim Low, triple fury and finishing skill spam and winged skills to finish it off.
