    L2P.

    Not gonna waste my time on narrow-minded people

    +1 to this.

    Just because you can't figure it out doesn't mean there is something wrong with the class. I love my archer. She is my alt and she is lvl 47 now and I love playing her even though I can't do the same things as with my veno. I don't pvp personally so can't speak for your experiences there but I gotta say from all your posts so far in this one and previous ones I think you must be some whiny 12 year old who wants everything to be perfect just for you.

    If you can't figure out how to play the class and take the awesome advice that has been given to you (as pointed out in Boogiepanda's above post) then stop wasting everyone's time and just pick something else to play. Seriously.

    Also, never use blazing arrow, it uses way too much mana.

    ROFL. Funniest thread I've ever read. Even I know how to play an archer better than you've described, and I've only leveled one to 40. Pro.
    It's not my job to shut you down on a suggestion. It's a pleasure, though.

    I find the worst skill in this game is definitely winged shell, it is beyond useless :/

    BMs can stun lock, I got stun locked by bm many times T_T, I heard they have 5 attacks per second at endgame... instant killers

    Wizards one shot me, and how the hell can they make some kind of stun? Why the hell they hit so hard?

    Clerics... ugh, their heals makes me sad and their own shell is more superior :( and they hit pretty hard too.

    Barb's HP is so high, its really pointless to bother attacking them... even after they use Armageddon which one shots me. They can kill me, but I can't even scratch them... WTF?

    Venoes have superior DOTs and they can heal themselves and with them pets is really difficult to even scratch them at times thanks to that bugged bleed from phoenix T_T... Venoes are way too OP, I hardly do anything but die instantly whenever I face a veno

    Assassins have their stealth and hp steal and full damage with 5 aps... =/ even using sucky light armor

    Psychics somehow makes me kill myself for some reason... and they are very weird with some weird buff that makes them protected or do huge damage.



    But what do archers have?
    Survivability? Yeah right, barbs, venoes and clerics are best at it, we have the worst survivability and even wizards have better survivability with their heal.

    Glass cannons? Assassins and psychics killed our spots. I really hate assassins because they stole our spotlight. At least they can't use sling shots

    Stormrage eaglon? Barrage of arrows? Pathetic ulti skills Eaglon sucks and barrage of arrows consume too much MP

    Frost arrow and knockback arrow? They are very useless, mobs never get slow and knockback is pitiful in PVP.

    Why PWI have archers with terrible skills? and we are out survived / damage by others? b:cry

    But venomancers with def debuff = instant death... How am i supposed to compete with that?

    Oracles? Hypers? Pray tell! What are these odd things of which you speak?

    1. Venos are.....dead......yeah. If you can't kill a veno, you have bigger problems than her nixie.

    2. Wizards are...only slightly harder, but not much, unless they're a LA wizie, then they can be a pain, but still not bad.

    3. BM's and barbs can be kinda annoying, but Aim Low->EVERYTHING in the lightning tree->shell->winged pledge.

    4. Sins are freaking annoying for random PvP, but other than that, shell->winged pledge->lightning strike->WoG-> stun/aim low->kite a bit->regular till dead or they drop back in stealth to lick their wounds.

    5. Psychics are a breeze: WoG->kite->more kiting->MORE kiting->they're buff's wore off!! DESTROY THE SQUISHY!!!!

    From the other thread:

    1. You didn't do WHAT?????? DUDE! No WONDER you "hate" melee mobs! You have no way to beat them! LEARN YOUR F***ING SKILLS!!!

    2. You are such a n00b, I'm going to go play my archer again for the first time in a month, just to prove to myself that you actually ARE a noob. I might even try to PvP a demon veno, just to see what it's like b:angry

    well I'm level 37 and I have no problem playing archer.... I just got few problems against boss and FB. But Archer is a very good character. I don't do pvp a lot, but I killed few times wizzard, venomancer, and bm trying to pk me. I don't think there's one class weaker than other. Archer has powerfull skills... I don't know what you mean at all

    I would say you get poisoned or attacked and just end up dieing as you claim.You winged shell is as good as our plume shell.

    I am going to have to stop feeding you soon.

    It provides them with a defense as well as much needed energy something we don't get from plume shell.

    But while Demon version (best case scenario) will give you 400 MP if it lasts the full duration.... it's rarely, if ever, going to do so. Archers don't really need skills to grind effectively at those levels, so the 400 MP gained is rendered useless. Plus, in the situations where an archer would need to use shell, it pops in one hit more often than not. That renders any potential MP gain invalid once again.

    The only real pros Winged Shell has over a cleric's plume shell i that it reduces both magical and physical damage (Plume shell being phys only), and doesn't drain MP to reduce the damage.


    ... and when you consider that Clerics have Wings of protection, that kinda nullifies winged shell as being better in any way
