So basically I was wondering if this is a good shard distribution for my archer.

http://pwcalc.com/327e608f64d1041d <- this is my gear atm

So there is 3 choices I have in mind citrine gems, vit stones, and/or diamond of tigers (JoSDs are out of the question)

My idea right now is to get my r8 chest full DoTs as well as my TT99 boots and wrists, then get my cape with full vit stones. As for my r8 legs i dont see getting them any better than they are now, maybe I might add perfect citrines later but who knows.

Now about my helmet. Right now I have a Warsoul of Earth with 2 sockets, and if I keep it I will probably put 2 citrine gems in them and leave it at that. But what I had in mind was the Forest's Wisdom http://www.pwdatabase.com/pwi/items/20256

Is it is easier to obtain than the nirvy hats (like ancestral divine hat or myriad blossom helm) and probably shard it with all vit stones.

So if anyone has suggestions/ideas any feedback is welcome b:pleased


P.S. How do I make my in game character as my avatar on the forums lol :P

    First off, you are using 38 stat points that you do not have on the calc.

    Second, a lot of that gear needs upgrading before you think about shards.

    You really need better pants. Like nirvana pants. Ring could really use an upgrade to a cv ring. I would also say use a nirvana helm since you keep about 40 points in dex rather than str. Unless you are wanting to use claws forever then go for Forest Wisdom. Also I would get the wrists and boots to nirvana or just nirvana the wrists and get Snowflake Soles (http://www.pwdatabase.com/pwi/items/20283) seeing as Anni packs are on sale.

    Now don't complain about gear costs since you are talking about sharding with Vit and DoTs. It would be a shame to put expensive shards like that into lesser gear.

    DoT is not a good option for archer. Specially if your not rocking +10 gear (Nv/Rank9) with +10 ornaments to make up for the lose of HP/Defense lv shards.

    You have atack lv of 0... and sharding 99 for extra 3-6 atack lv wont make a difference but gimp you more for sins/mages 1 shot.


    I can probably say any mage gush would probably 1 shot you with that gear.

    Pretty much Afisa is right.. But i had switch your ornaments for 5% hp neck and 4th map belt. They give a good amount of hp and are worth refining to 5-7 with mirage.
