Empowerment

[Ownage]

Can anyone give me some sort of guide on Skill Empowerment for the Archer skills?

I noticed there isn't any advice in FiestaWiki! So anyone that helps, TYVM

There are quite a few ways to empower archer skills actually.

I +5 increased damage for both Aimed Shot and Power Shot since those are the two big damage dealing moves for Archers.

After that, I haven't added a single empowerment point since because I can't decide.

But the most common ones are:

• SP Consumption for almost any skill, especially our poison ones. Archer skills take so much SP relative to our SP pool.
• Increased Duration for our poison skills.
• A few people use Decreased Cooldown for Nature's Protection but I don't think that's necessary. At all.

There's no need to Increase Damage for Poison Spells since they do so little damage anyway.

For myself I've done full power and cooldown empowerments on Aim and Power Shot.

Then put in one point each in SP consumption for the DoT skills... then full cooldown on Hawk Talon (lv60 skill).

But don't go with duration on the poison/bleed skills. Reason being you're most likely not going to be the only Archer in the KQ. On top of that... you can just recast. 3 seconds inbetween the skills won't make much of a difference here.

Lv3- Aimed Shot: 1 Power
Lv5- Power Shot: 1 Power
Lv7- Power Shot: 1 Power
Lv9- Power Shot: 1 Power
Lv11- Fury Impact: 1 Duration
Lv13- Fury Impact: 1 SP Reduction
Lv15- Bone Shot: 1 Duration
Lv17- Bone Shot: 1 SP Reduction
Lv19- Power Shot: 1 Power
Lv21- Power Shot: 1 Power
Lv23- Aimed Shot: 1 Power
Lv25- Aimed Shot: 1 Power
Lv27- Aimed Shot: 1 Power
Lv29- Aimed Shot: 1 Power
Lv31- Fury Impact: 1 Duration
Lv33- Bone Shot: 1 Duration
Lv35- Fury Impact: 1 SP Reduction
Lv37- Bone Shot: 1 SP Reduction
Lv39- Fury Impact: 1 Duration (Or SP Reduction if you feel you are using to much SP on those skills.)
Lv41- Bone Shot: 1 Duration (Or SP Reduction if you feel you are using to much SP on those skills.)

According to what people have said, I've come up with this:

Lv.3 - Aimed Shot: +1 Power
Lv.5 - Power Shot: +1 Power
Lv.7 - Power Shot: +1 Power
Lv.9 - Power Shot: +1 Power
Lv.11 - Fury Impact: +1 Duration
Lv.13 - Fury Impact: +1 SP Reduction
Lv.15 - Bone Shot: +1 Duration
Lv.17 - Bone Shot: +1 SP Reduction
Lv.19 - Power Shot: +1 Power
Lv.21 - Power Shot: +1 Power
Lv.23 - Aimed Shot: +1 Power
Lv.25 - Aimed Shot: +1 Power
Lv.27 - Aimed Shot: +1 Power
Lv.29 - Aimed Shot: +1 Power
Lv.31 - Fury Impact: +1 SP Reduction
Lv.33 - Bone Shot: +1 SP Reduction
Lv.35 - Fury Impact: +1 SP Reduction
Lv.37 - Bone Shot: 1 SP Reduction
Lv.39 - Fury Impact: +1 SP Reduction
Lv.41 - Bone Shot: +1 SP Reduction

^^ I put more SP Reduction and added only +1 Duration to each Bone Shot and Fury Impact.

Whadya guys think?!

That sounds okay to me, but I don't like the duration much either.

i put points into the cooldown of poison and bleed first so i didn't have to wait for them while grinding then i put points into power for power shot.
