    Dex is a good way to go, but I do not regret adding those 24 points to vit. It really helped me out in the early levels. But now I've gone pure. I find that for now it works out nicely because when I do get hit more than once(which is rare) it doesnt take that much away. But I'm sure that will disapear in later levels I may end up a heavy armor melee archer... either way thank you Annor for your helpful guide b:victory


    PS: What about arrows do you guys stick with lvl one arrows all the way to upper lvls or do you invest in higher lvl arrows? Sorry if this is high jacking.

    Nope Nope, I use tier 1 arrows almost everywhere, and whatever tier 2-3 arrows I get from grinding or bosses, I save them and use them at bosses. so far I have a tier 3 stash of 9k bolts I've collected from friends etc. It's just not worth it buying them for their insane price when they are not that rare if you're very active.

    For grinding however I will always be cheap, tier 1 arrows all the way lol

    Pure DEX all the way. Pure dex build, garnet sharded equips, and prefer equip with +DEX above +VIT. Even if u have 10hp, as long as u kill the mob before it attacks u, u re fine... =D
    If you've been bad, Lord I bet you have
    And you've not been hit by flying lead
    You'd better close your eyes and bow your head
    And wait for the ricochet.

    I was just asserting that "hybrid FTW" / "Pure FTW" discussions in this thread likely don't reflect our opinions of other classes ^^.

    If I was to say: "Archer FTW"
    That would reflect my opinion on other classes b:victory

    171 dex
    47 str
    12 mag
    err maybe 20 vit ish? not sure off hand

    i am a lvl 45 archer that was going pure dex until i realised magic doesn't miss and barbs wear misty rings, so i thought not much point in evasion so i went str and p.def shards ^^

    don't really have a set point allocation per lvl i just bang it in dex until i need armours or w/e

    Not sure how you would classify me......b:cute

    I guess Pure (4 dex per lvl) though mix with others. I wait 3 lvls to build up anything. so it goes 12 dex 2 str 1 mag, then the next time 12 dex 2 str 1 vit.

    What do you think, I call it my Tank Archer, good for up close or ranged fighting. Good with PvP or PvE. I never follow guides, though i think i might with my veno, not sure what to do there, lol.

    Hmmmm.... I favor the hybrid archer myself, but now that i have 50 Vit. I will go pure. My stats are 204 dex 57 vit 75 str 10 mag. All are highlighted of course due to equipment.

    Just in my opinion it is better to have high vit on a pvp server. Nothing like grinding and a 8x or higher barb or bm drops out of the sky on you trying to one shot you, or stun you and beat you down. I have 3k hp and 1 hp shard in my armor.

    Pure build basically equals more damage, nothing to worry about when they fall before you even get touched (prefer 19+)
    As time passes
    I constantly look at the clock
    But how does it pass by?

    I'm more than pure, I'm sure other archers do that too.
    Some pieces of gear (shinguards of hedes etc.) have a little str on them, aloowing me to go all dex+5 for a couple levels :D

    Im a lvl 48 archer. I read the guide at lvl 20ish I think. By then I had added all 4 stats.

    My base stats are 15 Vit 15 Mag and 40ish str with lots of Dex.

    Due to my equipment. My stats are

    20 Vit
    20 Mag
    52 Str
    193 Dexterity

    Does that one count as pure? Will the reset scrolls be cheao by the time I reach lvl 80+ ... ?

    no, thats not pure. and reset scroll cost is the same no matter what lvl you are. if u like playing archer and would like to keep going, i would suggest resetting around 6x/7x. however since u are on a PvP server, u might want to reset even earlier, depends on ur finances, its probably more important to get better gear than spend like 500k-1mil buying reset notes to fix ur stats.
    My body is made of swords.
    Iron is my blood, and glass is my heart.
    I have overcome countless battlefields undefeated,
    Without once retreating,
    Nor once being understood.
    Always alone, intoxicated with victory on the hill of swords.
    Therefore, there is no meaning to that life.
    Perhaps this body is nothing but a sword itself.

    Pure dex here... not a single point yet added in vit.
    Been great fun when you annihilate mobs way before they get to you.

    The string of crits prolifies the fun.
    Pure for the win.

    I use only citrine shards in my gear and try to go for +vit or +dex armour.

    Now am at crossroads.
    Since misty ring has become available at 50% its former cost, Do I shard myself with garnet ones or still pump my vit using citrines?

    I guess there is not much point in wearing Evasion cloaks n pendants so it has to be Phy res pendants and stuff right?

    And ofc magic res against magic users. (in short carrying two sets of pendants n belts)
