Personally I think Archers should be DEX based damage dealers, or at least have more benefits coming from it.

Personally I'm SICK of those complicated archer builds like: DEX DEX DEX DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX* DEX.

depends on whether you want a more solo based char or party based char. since the game is more about partying i think it best to get some people on friends list that you know you can work well with. this i think should go with all chars although fighters may have the easiest time on their own. (don't know do not have a fighter char). my archer works well with a good party cleric. just my opinion

Snow, I had been thinking about going full Spr, yes. But it would be way hard in the early lvls probably since you have way little dodge and the crit isn't that great in the beginning so you really rely on skills at first.

i see, but now im confused what to add now =]
i was thinking to add a bit of both so my archer would be decent at dodge/crit/atk spd but decent aint good enough =D
so i guess theres a fast attacking dodge archer and a pure damage crit archer?

@koshnikalav
SPR - increase Crit rate and SP i think
DEX - increases Evasion and AIM
The Benefits of puting SPR is that your archer can do lots of critical hits and at the same time increase your SP cause high lvl skill really need lots of SP!
Mean while Dex is for Dodging attacks or for monsters to miss at your Archer and Aim is for your archer to Hit the monsters cause it's really dificult to hit high lvl monsters and if your short on AIM you'll just miss at them.
Hope this explains it lol =)

ARCHERS NEED DEX ALLOT........MAINLY FOR EVASION...de can stay in front of many freaks at a time...if de have high evasion.....
HIGH EVASION=HIGH DEX.....so i prefer DEX..its most imp for archers.....

I agree and disagree with the dex. Yes dex needs more benefits. No it shouldn't be an archer's base damage, it would screw all the archers that put points into str useless.
Dex should:
*give more evasion
*give more aim
Dex shouldn't:
*add to archer damage

I have been full dex since lvl 45 (46 now) so i have +50dex which give me 10%evade I think thats really all you need with an archer. My 50dex with all my dex quips make me very hard to hit and is VERY good for solo, pvp, and parties. I have seen no flaw in my dex build so far and I don't really care if there is I love it get over it =P. Now im focusing on spr to get 25 so i can have a +5% crit rate. Archer crit more often then ANY other class so even more crit rate will benefit any build. After that the rest of my points are going to be into str cuz at that point thats all im lacking.

I agree with u sept dex should also give more atk rate. Yes we supposedly attack faster with bow but its sadly slow as compared to most other games even with atk speed buff.

Actually I believe the attack rates on the weapons need to be dropped whether we have DEX or not. Bows should be 0.9 and crossbows should be 1.1. It should be exactly like the other version. I think making DEX decrease the attack rate would be a little too complicated to work out since it would have to be an extremely small number, somewhat like decreasing the attack speed by like .005 for every two points or some where along those lines.

I thought dex based archers were more likely to die than all other builds. o.o

Naw...pure Int is far more suicidal.

How are they more likely to die? They have more evasion which means they get hit less. What are your conclusions based upon?
