    It is my opinion that Demon Archers are DPS by nature due to their most effective method of killing is a proced demon quickshot and auto attacks. While sage archers did not fall too far behind the dps path previously as most would just use windshield, I have not had the chance to evaluate the effect of this new patch on the playstyle of Sage Archers.

    Whether or not a DPH archer is currently viable I do not know. But in the end, it depends on your playstyle.

    Dph. My reasoning?

    R9 > aps build

    Simple as that.

    The reason t3 is so good is that it can hit harder than r9.
    So even if they have slightly less defence they have so much more dex. Interval makes no difference on casting time or damage for skills like boa.

    R9 > APS not because of DPS, but because of purge.

    I don't see ANY demon archers (who can afford it) with r9 bow and r8 top.

    Wind shield is just a **** poor excuse for sages trying to act like demons.

    Any archer who EVER went full r9... gave up speed for power.
    1. If I kill you; do something about it yourself, don't go complaining to my wife.
    2. If you have less kill counts then me, don't expect me to take pk advice from you.
    3. If you are hiding behind an alt, don't expect me to acknowledge your existence.

    By that logic t2 nirvy bow with a purge + aps gear is better than r9.

    This is just not true.

    I said R9 is better than G16 because of purge, not DPS, not 0 attack levels is better than 90 attack levels. Extrapolate much.

    I never mentioned r8 top. I said demon quickshot.

    Which most people find as an effective way of killing people.

    I assumed a DPH archer in this context meant as an archer that "skill spamed". With aps gear your attack speed is roughly 1.0 attack per second while full r9 is about 0.8 attacks per second (Just pulling this off from memory). I do not believe that the difference here is huge enough to say that auto attacking with r9 isn't dpsing when compared to full r9 axe bm vs aps bm or full r9 sin vs full aps sin, etc etc.

    lol no defined terms (or consensus), no wonder everyone's arguing. b:chuckle

    I dont think anyone is trying to say full -int gear is going to outperform full r9...
    The only sets that make any sense for comparison would be full g16 vs full r9...

    (though I dont think thats wat the OP was orignally asking but the question is 'bad' because DPH vs DPS are not exclusive of each other + not primary factors to compare for gearing an archer)
    well the question itself was pretty strange, its PWI... you don't really pick a build then get gear for it... for most part you just get 'the' gear /end >_>

    full r9 in this case would be though of as the "DPS" set and full g16 "DPH"
    full r9 being the clear winner due to the ability to purge (primarily) not to mention r999 etc...

    it's not like anyone is going to go "well im DPH better avoid r9 bracers and pants at all costs!!" or "im DPS forget +dex/+Crit add-ons!" though im certain someones going to be like "nah ruvil this is what DPS meant!" ... clearly
