Do archers get really boring?

Ive read some posts in the forums and archers seem to be so powerful that they hardly ever use skills. So does it get boring using like 2 skills and do nothing while your character automatically does normal attacks until the mob dies?

    lol the only way they can drop anything is if they use the metal decrease and a crit theyre boring since day one. roll a WR we pwn early to end game.

    if you like to crit a lot, then you're having fun no matter what b:chuckle

    It's playstyle dependent. I personally love archery IRL which is why i play an archer always :P

    But its true, two skills for 1vs1 PvE, Frost and KB... That's why i attack 2-3 mobs :P (Cause I grind with a cleric 80% of the time)

    Even a **** 7 year old kid can play a BM. Do the world a favor and remove this section of the forums. im tired of seeing all the filth posted about BMs. And to all you fail people that cant roll a real class uninstall the game we dont need anymore idiots.

    PS: I don't acknowledge a blademaster as a class but as a sharpening tool on my phoenix's beak. I love killing BMs when noobs dont have the charms for the bleed, and whenever i see a BM in white name you bet your **** i kill itb:cute.

    oh and to all you ******* that payed 5-7m for calamity axes for pixels LOL. Have fun doing **** damage when genies come out I <3 the GMs for hating blademaster idiots as much as i do.

    peace out noobs.
    asma go die already.

    archers can be lame for first 50 levels but they become the heaviest DDers in game

    for me, archer is great fun to play. of course it's dependent on you playstyle as to whether a class is boring or fun. when i play a game, i want to deal very good damage, have fun, but still relaxed, and archer fits me just right.

    if you feel it's boring to just use the two skills, of course you can add in skills in your grinding. it's totally dependent on you.

    as for the bm above, gtfo of the archer forum if you have nothing good to say. someone is asking a good question, which deserves good answers. in nowhere is the poster refer to bms, how dare you just jump in and give your lie.

    for your claim, bms own from early lvl to end game. that is a big fat lie. you are only lvl 40, how on earth would you know what the end game is about. all the high lvl bms agree that bms only get better after about lvl 70 cos that's when they can aoe grind. don't give opinion on what you don't know.

    On the other hand , Asma, who the hell told you those things about archers??!! Cause you are other blind, or you have absolutely no idea what an archer is/does! So keep it down there with unbalanced posts!

    it's not that we're so powerful we use 1 skill while grinding, it's more like we're so lazy/cheap we use 1 skill while grinding..sometimes 2 skills.

    but seriously, what class doesnt get repetitive while grinding? only time it gets interesting is when someone aoe grinds

    Im a noob (as you can see). I hear a lot about grinding and that if you want to make money thats what you gota do. So which character is best to grind with? In other games, level 70 buffed weapons are like 30,000,000 is it like that in perfect world or is 5 million like a lot of money?

    5 mil is somewhat a lot of money, and yes grinding is the best way to make money if u don't buy boutique gold and sell them

    Most expensive thing i ever saw was a white horse mount for 33mil.. I believe it needs like a LOT of bronze (25k each), silver (250k each), and gold (Never seen one) Dragon Orders

    Refined weapons i've seen go 10 mil.. Haven't seen any 90+ stuff though.

    For the other question: Venomancer is the best grinding class.

    it seriously depends on ur taste in items. usually u can get decent stuff from lvl 1-60 for under 100k each. at 70-79 chances are u will need a pay 300-1mil per item for decent equip. at 80-89, well heres where all the expenses will show up. average stuff cost like 2-3mil each piece, the good stuff are 5-10mil each.
    5mil is alot of money for the average player in most cases espeically since most people just spent their money as they get them for their equipment.
    for more hardcore/dedicated players 5mil is just....maybe 1 piece of their equipment cost not including refines and shards.
    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.

    I am not an archer, but a BM. But I can tell you that grinding in itself can get boring. I use 2 - 4 skills depending on what mobs I (solo)grind on. Its not that much fun... However, up until lvl 60 you should hardly have to grind to lvl up. Although quests do ask quite some grinding. Anyways, if you wanna have some real fun in the game, go do some PvP and definitely TW.

    The best grinding class is not veno, its BM. We can AoE grind like hell, there's also more skill needed there since you wanna let your charms tick as few times as possible. It's fun.

    Hope it helps!

    Hell no!

    If you want "Critical" appear on your screen, then Archers will grant you your wish.

    If you don't want to see it, well then, you're not much on the right track.

    Dex build BM's see crits quite often... and yes, it's lovely to see them. Having a 77 BM main is fun, but I'm really getting addicted to archer.
