    Those who constantly complain about the bad things in life always end up in the worst positions.
    so forget about what's bad and enjoy what's good.

    You could if you want since archers attack damage is cut by half in close range, so fists could help if a mob gets to close, but in pking not a good idea.

    But its up to you if you want to use fists or not. b:pleased

    I wouldn't recommend any other build but pure dex for archer. This means 1 str, 4 dex every level. If you want to use fists just use the highest level fists possible with the pure dex build because archers don't really become effective with fists until high levels when -interval gear and demon spark are available. Switching to fists when mobs get close isn't necessary because you should be killing mobs before they reach you.

    Fists / claws are good at 99+. I don't recommend it at low levels.. just stick with the metal skills + wingspan/ pledge. Those do full damage at close range.

    Amended slightly, if you can afford a bit of -interval equipment. They only really become amazing when their high attack rate, and thus chi gain, can be combined with repeated sparking.

    I believe there was a span early on, around the level range of Dreaming Stronghold, where I used claws as a secondary weapon to finish off a monster after it recovered from knockback. Overall though, they're quite unnecessary.
