I just bought heaps of 3 star gear for my archer, and they all came with sockets. should i put citrine shards or the shards which increases evasion/accuracy into my gear?

    u want to use citrine shards, since ur probably a pure build u'll already have enough evasion/accuracy to hit 99% of the time. unless ur fighting dex build bm's or other archers

    I put HP as well, reason i think some dont put pRes shards cause archers will have (in a given time) enough evasion to dodge attacks. Which makes sense to me. However, why put HP if the archer's evasion is high, safety measure? b:laugh

    My archer is your typical 4/1 build and i dont expect to be fighting up close but from afar. Sometimes the mobs get in my face and half or 3/4 of the time u see the "miss" "miss" "miss"

    So Citrine shards (ftw) for me.b:bye

    Pretty much every monster starts slinging spells later on in the game (assuming they hit you) and magic never misses in PvP.

    If you shard p.def and don't have some highly refined gear + really good mdef stuff, you're gonna be a very easy target for the people running around in robes + pdef shards.
