Archers in Goddess of Destruction

What's the word on archers in goddess of destruction? Has NCSoft done anything to improve them with the new updates? (particularly the light elf)

Also, do arrows still cost mp to fire?

I'm not awakened yet, but vamp is ridiculous on archer.
Couldn't be happier.

You can learn a skill at lvl 81 or 82 I believe that doesnt consume mana.

Shooting with a bow still consumes mp, however you can buy an "infinite quiver" (or container for crossbow) at a Grocer NPC for infinite arrows, so no need to haul a truckload of arrows with you anymore ;)

arrows pre 85 doesnt cost mp once u got the forgotten scrolls
arrows after 85(when u awakenen) do cost mp
bolts on the other hand doesnt take mp when u awakenen

yes archers are amazing now prolly the best class ingame when it comes to pvp just sad theres so many mages people will just make u believe they are the best pvp class

but i have 3 hitted top mages with normal hits
self buff +100% crit damage +20% crit damage from toggle + 50% more damage from bullseye
+ buffs dunno how much crit damage it gives
+ counter crit if it triggers
i easily hit for over 7k on mages in pvp takes me 3 hits to drop them
i can drop healers with 3 hits also by using skills so i guess same for mages

tbh if u got good healer on ur *** archer pt > mage pt big time

u can drop people target with 3 diff skills
half kill healer > drop target > 2 skills gf u dropped the healer ;) its that easy ;)
1 of the drop target skills is aoe it does miracles in pve when u got agro all mobs lose agro for 5 seconds and if ur in pt they will **** off to other player xD

Pinpoint Shot + Sniper Stance = Half Kills. Archers can probably duo a group area with an enchanter. Ive seen two archers save a group from getting wiped by killing a group mob.

How about plainswalkers? any improvement to them or do they still hit for very little until 83+? Do elves still get the same awesome speed with dexterity not affecting speed anymore?

Elves have a fast racial speed, only rivaled by kamael. The rest has to come from their skills.

Elves when awakening get a large speed boost when outside of combat, so in general they're still the fastest race.

yea archers are gimp

I am enjoying the play on my archer. Her sub-classes are all maxed to 80+. I have 12 subskills to play with. I am strongly considering removing the three levels of crit rate and taking something else (three levels of skill resuse) because I am always maxed on crit rate with basic buffs and no toggles.

Anyone else note the same?

I'm going for range (50 + 50) and possibly atk speed I guess :)
