Interlude - Hawkeye or Treasure Hunter?

I started on lineage 2 and decided to go rogue, but im not really sure about what to go next. I apreciate all your sugestions ^^

Welcome to the game. Do you like to fight up close and personal or do you like to keep your distance? It's all a matter of your preferred fighting style. Both are great to play.

I prefer ranged combat, im thinking going hawkeye but i wanted to know whats the cons and pros of each class :p

I don't much a whole lot about either, but I can tell you a little. Archers seem to rule in PvP in L2, but I keep reading that they are an expensive class. People seem to talk about crit damage a lot when the subject of Dagger classes comes up. But I once played with a TH in a small group in ToI. He had a lot of special skills that helped finesse a very dangerous situation in a dungeon full of aggro mobs, and his skills were also nice for finding and pulling the mobs we were farming for drops.

Because this game is broken and has terrible melee combat mechanics, HE all the way.

From B grade archers arent' that expensive, and get cheaper each level.

Don't underestimate a good player behind a dagger, he will **** you.

hawkeye for sure dont even think about dagger

Single minded people.. meh.

I must be going up against some bad archers then. As a DA, I don't seem to have much trouble with them. My Panther likes licking the bones after I kill them.

Deflect Arrow FTW!!

I play both, I enjoy both.
the HE is prolly better in PvP tho.

Just another point to add in here: I have TH sub, and I really enjoy it and all the stealth skills -- silent move, stealth (which means I can go anywhere practically, with very few exceptions) -- fake death, trick, veil, lure, backstab, and deadly blow. Dash is great too... Lots of choice. There are no self-buffs tho. But TH can also use a bow. Even with just the level 40 skill set of bow masteries, I can crit like crazy with dances and songs. Of course, that's not the same as the HE, where archery is the specialty....

I have an HE and here is what i think
from lvl 1-40 dont use bow ( unless ur really rich :)), it will cost you around 300k - 500k soulshots haha.
HE runs/attacks slower than other archer like SR, PR but it has higher HP/dmg. If you like Hit and Run style i would suggest you to consider PR(phantom rager) as well.
P.S Archer class is really really really hard to level up. Archer without bufss = worthless POS

Archers and nukers level up the fastest in my opinion. HE's shoot faster than SR's, too.

If I were in your shoes - I'd go HE. (Personal Preference... I like to keep distance...)

Currently playing an Abyss Walker (Dark Elf Dagger equivalent... can get pretty boring.) But, with archer I had so much fun.

Whatever you choose... hope you have fun.

Archer are probably better than daggers early on, but rely a little bit more on buffs than a dagger does. However, I would say after the 3rd class change, daggers become much better in small PvP situations, but in a large siege, of course, archers will be doing all the work. In terms of PvE, archer is probably better than a dagger in every way, but archer is probably more boring to most people :(

HE's shoot faster than SR's, too.

wrong.

Weaksauce. :P


(I love teasing weak SRs)
