LvL 102 Yul GS DarkElf, +15 Str +3 dex Legendary dye, +12 Bloody Bow, +9 Bloody LA set, Tauti Ring, Ruler's Ring of Authority, Lindvior, + 7 shirt (+3 All Stats,) Longing, Christmas tali, Venir LvL 14(+2 str, +2 dex,) Abundance, 5%p.atk+3str hat, Aria's Bracelet(+3 Str,) LvL4 emerald(+2 all stats,) LvL 4 Opal...etc.

With 99 Iss Kama solo = 45 minutes

With Pom Iss 101 kama solo = 30-35 minutes
(sometimes under 30 minutes but sometimes more...depends on how many times GS gets feared, stunned etc.)

Rose buff + str stew

Iss doing SOE at the last sec of killing the final boss, GS = party leader, getting party leader bonus,

400B Per Kama run, Full boost (200% rune, Maphr's scrolls, LvL 4 clan buff, 50% exp potion...etc.)
with pass = 800B a day.

My thoughts?
Well... same geared same level Evic or titan can do it faster, but at least it's doable but requires practice and patience.
The Trick is using the AOE skills at the right angle to fill the HP. Basically, when the adds are up, I don't need to heal the Yul archer at all, it gets full HP(yes, even with +9 bloody set, HP goes down and needs healing) with 1 x AOE attack. I just stack the adds and the boss in front of my Yul Archer, so I hit the boss + adds at the same time with AOE skills. I don't single target the adds at all but I am on the boss full time. Adds die to AOE easily, too. If possible, try to get ranged ADDs first, they are the ones doing the most damage. Ignore the melee adds.

Always Wiz the archer before Mind's eye + BR or Counter instinct + BR to synchronize the timing of CD skills with BR; and Warrior right After each CD skill before BR. Yul archer's CD skills =1 minute long and BR = 30 sec, so it's better to Change back to warrior before casting BR.
with berserker or skill berkerker ?

What do you mean berserker??? Your original question was about Yul Ghost Sentinel Kama solo, correct?

Are you asking cuz you really don't know? or just testing my knowledge? Do you have an awakened Yul Archer? or thinking about making one?
Just asking around?

Anyways...
Berserker is a CD skill for Tryy warriors Only. Actually, Titan doesn't have berserker but has Frenzy(better skill than berserker) instead and Dreadnoughts don't usually learn berserker skill but better off keeping the Thrill fight + Focus Attack.

Anyways, by CD skills for Yul GS, I meant Mind's eye and Counter Instinct(101 skill.) They have 10 minute Cool Down but with +8 set & Wiz, it works out to be around 5 minutes. Same thing with POM and BR. When Iss enchanter has Wiz on and has put points on skill reduce ability skill, they all work out to be around 5 minutes.
He ask about what dual skill u use.Good that u give advices but no clue what he means.

Oh that! LOL
Master's rage or Berserker's rage?

NEITHER

Berserker's rage: the ideal class for this dual skill will be Tyrr Dreadnought or Titan with AOE spear. more hits = more chance to trigger this skill, so for AOE spear class, this gets triggered a lot. It's a good skill for Evic and GK too. Fist weapon is a single target weapon but because they hit so fast, they generally have a good chance to trigger this skill. But for YUl Archers? I don't think this is the skill. Even with 1500 Attack Speeed, Bow weapon in general is slow or very slow weapon so don't hit quite as fast and as many as other weapons.

Master's Rage: this is a good skill for PvP Yul archer where a burst of DPS is very important, and not bad choice for PvE archer, too.
It doesn't get triggered a lot though, and it requires constant spamming of skills all the time...

My Yul archer has 12% P.atk Dual skill. I think P.atk specialization + 1 point on P.Atk is better for more geared Yul though, making the total of 15% P. Atk. The reason I prefer this skill is simply because it makes box runs easier. It is those 30 sec of BR + Yul's CD skill that cuts down RB's HP by 1/2 and the most annoying thing that can happen in those 30 sec is getting stunned, feared, or paralyzed...SO I use Mind's eye with BR 90% of the time; while I do this, I am on the ISS screen all the time, watching the boss skill bar, ready to cast "Angel's Touch" on Yul...I have like 0.1 sec to respond or the Yul gets CCed and it means another 5 minutes on the same boss. This method saves a lot on Yul archer's Mana, too. I use Iss Chaos debuff only during BR, otherwise Iss gets Mana Problem as well.

By the way, if it's too hard, try Kama Trio with a healer. Group Purge + Rebirth makes life a lot easier. The difficulty level of Duo is at least 2 times more than Trio.
So, you need semi-top end gear to do it in 30 min.
There are videos of even iss enchanter doing it faster.

Per your description I see you use normal hit as the main dmg to the bosses.
What if you could do it on 15 min? Thats whats supposed to be if they didnt nerfed bow critical dmg by half.

Once with kelbim I got half HP of the 1st boss with 1 BR. But then I could not finish cause bow hits per pediod of time are too few because of arrow delay and I couldnt VR back the HP. Without that nerf I could at least killed the 1st one.

Thats why you even see iss videos soloing K99 but not even a single archer one worldwide.
Ive seen tyrs, evis, dagger, summoner, NUKER, and ISS doing it. From all dd's just archer cant do it.

would you mind to share a video? :)
I feel DreamSeeker is right on track with a comparable Titan. To give a titan's perspective, my runs started out being around 45 minutes with gear that was similar in quality to DreamSeeker's. As I min/maxed more, my times came down. Adding POM got my runs under 30 minutes. Adding Hurricane shackle shaved another 5 minutes or so. Gaining levels also helped tremendously. The instance became infinitely easier at 102 and I stopped having to worry about healing and the increased damage to mobs saw my times under 20 minutes.

I was 103 before I added SoS to my runs, and they got down around 14 min with a +12 slasher.

I bet similar improvements can be made for a Yul. The amount of health you'd VR back from adding SoS would be a tremendous quality of life improvement alone. But now things are starting to get expensive with 3 sets of passes needed just to do a K99.

Honestly, I think a 30 minute solo run is very respectable and anyone who makes it to that level should be proud of their accomplishment. You'll be able to get two k99 runs in with a single round of pots.
Adding Hurricane shackle shaved another 5 minutes or so.

Why hurricane shackle?
Why hurricane shackle?

Hurricane Shackle's hidden skill is +10% p.atk

In order to enable that, you do need to put two Ability Points into Noble Warrior Buffs (second tier in warrior tree). Worth the sacrifice, I think :)

You do know bow critical damagge was cut in half in lindvior and he will never achive that right?
No wonder there is none, zero videos of archers doing it. Nobody uploads 45 min run of painful kamaloca on archer.
Misread...sorry

I (102) run Kama X 2 every day in less than an hour with my ISS (101). I have no pve armor or weapon...they're all dark. No heals needed, aoe takes care of that. I think my best time is around 25 mins but I average 26-27. So it can be achieved.

..and I know for a fact that there are other archers doing it in under 30 mins as well.
Ohh boy, do I need to make a vid of my archer doing it in 20 mins w/ pom iss box? Actually I won't cuz there are a few things I'm not sharing. This is really a good bang for your buck if you have the time.

Death is Eternal

Do share :)

I can't get it down to that fast, that's awesome.
OK, for ghits and shiggles I'll do it again this weekend and see if I can break 20 mins. I was 104 at the time, all dark gear. I've been in a few pug groups that took longer, had to bite my tongue.

Awesome..looking forward to it :)
Offering Kama Trio for LvL 99 Tank Only, everyday 1:00PM EST, chronos.

There are many Low level tanks but not enough 100+ tanks that can do AF & Gludio. I think most tanks give up before they hit 100. Most CC&Baylor only want Evic&Titan and same thing for Kama. People prefer DD over tank in pre lvl 100 contents but when time comes to do AF or Gludio, they spend hrs looking for a tank...so ironic....

It's about time I make myself useful, that's all...
Still waiting for a video, if someone dont mind sharing :)
even tanks soloing k99.

not a single archer video doing it worldwide.

LONG LIVE BOW/XBOW CRITICAL DAMAGE MODIFIER NERF


HOLY Hell, give it a rest already!

You want to play a PvE char re-roll a Tyrr/Evis. You want a PvP char, keep playing your archer.

Archer is DISPROPORTIONATELY strong in PvP and for some reason you keep crying about the crit dmg modifier of bows/xbows. NOT A NERF; WORKING AS INTENDED SINCE GOD!
Is it even possible for a human archmage to solo k99? I highly doubt it
@ noodles/daikon I know tons of archers that solo k99. Do they do it as fast as evis/titans/gk? No of course not, But still able to complete it and get all the solo xp. My GS can solo it, buts its boring. So I do all the bosses except the last on my dual then class change. I suggest level and get stronk like ultronn

So wait, archers have been arguably the top PvP DD since GoD and......your complaining why? Because you want them to be the top PvP and PvE class?

So check this out, on my Tyrr I have skills with MORE skill power than Archers AND I can get my P.Attack higher but wait......even under these conditions my skills do crap damage! Do you see my crying about it all over the forums??

Actually it is. Saw a video of a feoh in korea doing it. GL getting that much gear though. IIRC he had a stage 2 dragon weapon.
But still possible.

u can do k99 solo even with a iss as DD .. the problem is $$$$$ for the gear.
https://youtu.be/hh9XGLeenyw Yul 101 duo but can be easy done solo with iss pom as box

Oh boy..

You have Giants Critical but you dont use, BUT you use Giants Critical Weakness, BUT no Mind's Eye. Instead you use skills..... cmon? Do I rly need to tell you GCW is for normal hits?

You get crazy jumping around clicking skill afetr skill for 30 min.. painfull to do.
What if you could do it much more smoothly in half of the time if the bow critical damage nerf by just normal shooting? Or you´re another one that thinks archers are overpowered pve wise?

"archers are top PvP since GoD" ROLF
theres no sense talking to you.

And if you check patch notes the ONLY TWO boost archers got since GoD was having skill critical rate increased and Quick Shot also ignoring 30% p.def. All other ones small boosts other all classes got toguether like mode p.def/m.def from passives, etc.

In lindvior besides the ninja critical damage nerf theres was the instances nerf that went from toogles to self buffs.

Then UE and Camouflage nerf.

Archer are strong today IN PVP USING SKILLS because of all the stacking. Specially because of the new SA's, Augments and POM that went out in same update. Something that any class can go that way.

And OFC you do less damage.
Do you kill mobs with skills?!
You got augm for critical hit damage or skill damage? Is your SA for skill critical?
I bet your toon is set up for critical hit damage. Because critical hist for PVE is way better then using skills. There is no TYR in this world grinding up thats it set up for skills.
You still have the choice, archers dont.
Ignoring you from now on.

Gonna try and address your points in a rational way (useless probably).

Yes, Archers have been a top PvP class since GoD. During a FEW chronicles some classes have been able to come close to (and possibly surpass) archers in PvP. But, since GoD, archers have been one of the best, if not the best in PvP. Am I wrong?

Archers have seen a few nerfs and a few boosts, how does that change my original thesis? Even when they get a "nerf" they are still #1 in PvP.

Of course I use white damage. But you say I have a choice? What choice do I have? Can I use skills to XP? Seriously, you are contradicting yourself.....

In GoD Archers were re-designed to be a skill based class. The bow/xbow "nerf" was introduced to somewhat balance the class out because initially, archers had way more p.attack than every other fighter class. Am I wrong? Take Minds Eye for example; is there another class that has an SoS self buff? 100% crit dmg self buff??? Come on man, even you should be able to see how unbalanced this would be if bow/xbow had the same modifiers.

Anyway, I think you're "spitting in the wind" on this issue. It shouldn't change and it's not gonna change.
Oh boy..

Thanks for pointing out my mistakes

OP asked if is possible and how so I took pve bow from my friend to make this video . Was first (and last) time I farmed on archer ..switching from main to dual for last hit on every instance is easier way to xp for me

But I wonder how you handle this instance ..

Maybe if you change your AP /dual class skills for p.atk and crit damage, get frog buff in plains of lizardmen, gog buff and do it right with your skills you could make it under 30 min. Maybe even a crit dmg augment on bow if you already dont have a skill one.
