Hey I'm kinda new to this game and a little bit unsure how to raise my archer...

1.) Crit-Rate
I was thinking about going pure SPR. Since a critical does HUGE damage I figured it would be more effective to have a high crit-rate than dealing a little bit more damage with regular hits. Now what I got from the forums is that you gain 0.2% Crit per SPR-point until lvl25 and after that only 0.1%. Meaning you have additional 12,5% crit at lvl100 on top of your regular crit-rate. From other games I've learned that a char depending on crits works best with a crit rate of 60% or higher... any way to achieve such a thing in this game (base-crit-rate + SPR-stats + equip / buffs?) or better stop adding SPR?

2.) Evade-Rate
Same with the criticals. Where is the point where DEX actually pays off? Will the base-stats be enough to ensure an effective evade rate or better put points into DEX?

(in other words - where does the focus of an archer lie? High crit to kill monsters before they get to you or high evade to avoid being hit when the mob reaches you to finish it off without taking damage? Or is it even possible abuse evade-rate to become AoE? ô.O)

Thanks in advance =^_^°=

I assume that it -might- be possible at level 100 if you go full spr or full dex to get a crit/evade rate higher than 60% using earrings/rings that give +% to those skills (probably +5% @ 100 per item?). Note this is just a guess, and none of us acutally knows -yet-.

However keep this in mind.

At level 100, with full spirit, if you crit, your high crits won't be much damage to fighters/clerics. Sure, it'll sting to mages and other archers, but fighters will have such a high defense and clerics such high heals that your stings will be minor itches compared to their defense and hp levels.

Also note that it's entirely possible for crit rate per stat to drop -more- at higher levels, going at the trend it does, it might drop from .2, .1, to .05% at level 50? (.2 1-25, 26-50 .1, then maybe lower?).

The only way to find out is wait and see or just try it yourself.

I guess I'll try and stick with pure-SPR until I got at least 50 SPR... IF I ever make it that far... (at the very moment it feels like every other character - this includes archers - is stronger than me xD )
