Hey Friends,

Recently i have made a 81/100 zeal but i cannot decide what PvP/PK skills are useful for archers and what should be the build for the genie. Any suggestions or guide will be really helpful for me.
Thanks in advance ! b:thanks

    Well some skills that are very useful in endgame pvp are, absolute domain, holy path (gets you away from sticky situations), soul of fire (block wizzy combo's), heart of steel (block seeker's insane metal attacks, especially when they combo on you), expel (can be useful if you use it right), fortify (if you have trouble with the antistuns needed for a successful cast of Ironguard powder in mass pk, or to block a clearly incoming stun), and will surge (to block silence skills and to be able to attack psys without proc'ing their SoS every hit). These are just 7 skills that I have found useful in my experience as an archer. But I would try to gather a lot of people's opinions and try to combine them with mine and see what are the most important :) good luck with pk!

    Honestly, you're better off with a few 6x/90 or 100 genies to test out builds if you aren't sure what you want on your final genie. It may be cheaper (though I guess it depends on the price of those genie stat allocation things whose name I forgot) than putting all of your skills onto one nice genie. If you're just starting out in PK (as I would assume you are since you don't already know what skills you want), this might be the better option. Just a thought, anyway. There's nothing wrong with any of the hithertofore suggested skills.

    The Archer-only genie skill that's like Whirlwind that I forgot the name to is useful too. It immobilizes for a lot longer than WW. But that's mostly in 1v1s if I recall correctly. And then again I don't play an archer.

    HoS also is helpful versus Clerics and other Archers too. Other than that, everything seems to be mentioned.


    There are also other things to consider, such as what the genie is going to be (Dex genie or vit/mag genie). Using a 100 dex genie, other skills to consider would be Extreme Poison for single target 16 second amplify debuff, Badge of Courage to break out of a stun, and Windshield for a 27% damage reduction buff for 10 seconds (at level 10).

    I's okay, though I only used it to troll people with claws. It can be used when someone is about to get into your face and you want to leap away, but imo your genie is better suited to something else at that point.

    He might be referring to stunning blast, used to be popular among old school archers but became quite useless overtime.

    I think so too.

    I actually still have that skill on my genie but I can't say I've used it in the last few months.

    I use a 97/100 genie.
    It uses full +4 mag/vit eq and has 110 vit/82 mag/6 str/3 dex

    AD
    Faith
    HP
    Fortify
    Will Surge
    SoF
    Heart of Steel
    Nullify Poison

    Planning on switching Nullify Poison for ToP when I get full jades or feel tanky enough.

    My genie has:
    81/100

    AD
    Holypath
    Expel
    Will Surge
    Cloud Eruption
    Fortify
    Heart of Steel

    once I do get a 91+ I'll most likely place Soul of fire since its the only thing missing that I find very useful.

    Yeah I took mine off long time ago, figured since nobody ever wants to follow me up into the air there was no real point in having it..

    The 3 most effective type of genies for archers I have seen are

    1. Dex genie revolving around badge of courage.
    2. Mag/vit genie with ad, expel and cloud erupt.
    3. Mag/vit genie with ad, faith.

    Downside with the third is that it requires 26 affinities and L105, but other than that it's pretty much preference I think. I'd also refer to the guides by boogie that somebody already posted before me.

    Archer genies should be about defense, keeping us alive long enough to pew pew pew until we get that killing headshot.

    I recommend faith to everyone, because it is all immunities in one, and can be used in conjunction with an ironguard for invinicibility
