i dont get it why choose archers? their def is the 2nd lowest and they use normal damage, the type im strongest against. true they have stat effects but there are plenty of scrolls, buffs, and items out there that increase a persons resistance... so why do people use them

because they are awsome damage dealers. after 51 you start becoming an aoe machine. if you are gonna solo archers are great later in game. its a more advanced class(harder for newbies). Once you master an archer you can excel with any other class.

Archers may have the 2nd lowest def but... what about the mages? They have the lowest defense yet has, more or less, the most people playing them.

Like Zwivix said, archers in most games are for more 'advanced' players. Not the best starter class.

Archers are great. End of story.

archers are my 2nd favorite class after mages
except I wish that dex influenced attack speed.
that would make dex archers so amazing
and dex would no longer be a "useless" stat

Archers are a fun class to play. You get to turn mobs...and your friends different shades of green. ^^
And not all archers have sucky defense. But just because they have low defense compared to cleric and fighter doesnt mean their a bad class. They're fun and cute.
Archer was my second choice of character, tried fighter for one day(lol), and fell in love with it.
And the resistant pots dont work the greatest. Archers have several poisons to poison someone ^^
They're able to kite aoe which makes them excelent at soloing or even duoing with a cleric who doesnt mind running a bit.
They're also the best pullers because they can use their aoe poisons to keep aggro.
In my opinion, thats why choose archers. ^^

how good is the aoe poison aggro exactly....
in abyss whenever I see archers pull a giant green train the person at least loses half of it and those always come straight at me
and then 5 mins later the person loses another half and so I see random mobs running back but then they see me so those come after me too

That just means they were bad pullers/aoe'ers. xD

**a.L** · 12-13-2008, 11:26 PM

That's probably because they run too far.

Or they didnt add any points to their natures mist for the CD. Or not aoing enough to keep the aggro ^^
