Hi fellow archers,

The title says it all. Can archers lure mobs?

I've been doin fb runs alot lately and a few of my groups (without veno) often ask me to lure mobs.

I always thought that luring was a veno skill, but heard archers can do it too.

Can someone please tell me if this is true? And if so, can you tell me how archers lure mobs? (use special skill combination or smth)

Thank you and see you in game!!

PS im already lvl 49 and have been playing about a month and a half. Whoohoo. Archers FTW

    Archer luring is simply the archer attacking a far off monster. This will draw that monster and any surrounding ones, but, according to what I've seen, not the boss if he's next to those monsters. It's different from Veno luring because Veno luring only lures one monster.

    I did not think it would be so simple. So just attack a monster and just hope you draw the attention of that single mob. lol

    Thnx for the quick reply.

    in some cases knockback arrow works and then you only draw the aggro of the area the monster is knocked back TO not where he was originally standing, if you have other logn range fighters in party you can slow it or stun it too
    besides that yah just try to hit a monster without too many near it, archers arent ment to lure really..

    archer luring is a skill of proper timing, u should lure mobs when they are afar from others, or an army will go straight to u if u done it wrong...

    mobs luring from boss (appliacable for fb 19 and boss outside fb only)

    yeah, u heard it ryt, archers can lure mobs in bosses at fb 19.

    as for the outside boss, as i stated b4, proper timing...
