Rosebest Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Coming from live, I'm aware that archers have a significantly different play style than what I'm used to. With that being said, and from what I've been reading, it seems my two 'viable' choices to pick from are PR or HE (HE's are generally well rounded and PR's are glass cannons). Does anyone that has experience with these classes have anything to add that may influence which one I ultimately go with? Thanks in advance!

Taunt Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Your understanding is correct. PR will hit hard, and because of this kill faster, level faster and use less adena on shots because it will take less to kill. They're the top PvE Archer for sure. In PvP they hit equally as hard and if they go un-noticed can do lots of work. HE is the most ideal PvP archer for the fact he is more tanky and well rounded. His damage isn't anything to laugh at, and will still level fast just not as fast as a PR. A HE can get away with being noticed earlier and take a few hits before dropping down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HE isnt that bad but PR is superior in every aspect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Userbaer Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Since they changed how snipe works i think that HE is better then PR in higher lvl. PR still hits much harder but the snipe of HE got a rework and he can run with snipe with -40 speed. actually Video of Troy on skelth using the the reworked snipe. He played PR before and he said he like the HE better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 PR is the only choice because Fatal Counter is indeed broken on classic. Check videos to see what it really does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Limerence Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 SR is always worth playing .. Less damage, so if you want to see unbelievable damage on your screen, not the way to go... Overall, it's still the same game, so Atk.speed>All ... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackalsAW Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 only PR , others do not exist in classic. PR>SR>HK. 60 lvl PR can oneshot 70+ robes/ other archers. Fatal counter in 1.5 oneshot everything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StefanG Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 stun land is quite high ~90% on same level chars...and since the stun charges based on attackspeed....SR will win since it will land it faster and just kill afterwards. unless FatalCounter casts faster...

Userbaer Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 (edited) The problem with fatal counter is his damage, even so the sr can win but if the stun last not long enough the pr need 1 shot and hes dead. Since the Snipe changed from HE the he is a really good pick now. For example the SR get a light boost to his speed attack or how its calles, now on max lvl his reduced range is only 10 % if im correct. So its depending on the playstyle and like. Pr slow hard hitting, He great middle way with good snipe buff and Sr for fastest skill shooting (lvl 79 death sting). I really dislike the armor design of the elfs so my pick is He or Pr but mostly i will go for He. Nice hp good damage and dash + snipe Edited October 1, 2018 by Userbaer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tr0ller Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Silver Ranger is the true joke on this game. HE is lame too. Even with Snipe and Dash, his damage is not good. Ignore this video about Tr9y, this guy is completely geared with bosses, baium talis and broken hero weapon. You gonna find some PR's hitting 6-10k on mages w/o a problem. His range is low but who cares, it will be 1-2shooting mostly of the classes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackalsAW Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 (edited) SR can stun fast , and dark avenger can easy fear , but PR take all Frags :DDD so doom light set , some dyes on DEX , and PR cast fatal like SR stun and yes , its still oneshot without STR dyes. if SR try go dex+12 , without STR , his farm turn into hell , every mob feel like PVP.

ChicoNever Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 SR may be a good choice if you think of olys, since not many ppl will play with them and your competition will be lower. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having a PR, you'll still get the stun but with greater damage overall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StefanG Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 but still its a good chance of winning of one playes SR since it doesnt really matter if you hit the target 2 or 3 times after the stun lands....but again...lets see the landrate....

BlueBerry Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 So My question is this so when you see the PR using his SLOW MOTION Skill "Fatal Counter" will stun disrupt it? then go for the kill? just wondering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
