Archer RB Pathways - Needing Opinion!

09/15/2008 01:02 jrclarkie#1
Hey guys,

I know there's a million posts on it around but I couldn't find anything really specific to pathways available to those that start off as an archer.

My archer is now lvl 127 and is my first and only character. I've read things from people that recommend arch-wat-arch, arch-war-arch, arch-arch, or just staying as a 130 arch. Could anyone please clarify somes pros and cons of each, what each pathway would mainly be built for (eg. pvp, pve etc) or any other ideas you may have for me. I'm leaning toward a pvp character.

I'm getting a headache thinking about it all, but at the same time can't wait to rb and start over again.

Thanks.

p.s. char details are as follows if it helps at all:
[S] lvl 112 ears +4
[E] lvl 120 necky +3 SDG
[S] lvl 126 atk ring +5 SDG
[S] lvl 126 bow +4 SDG SDG
[S] lvl 120 coat +4
[S] lvl 120 boots +4

Stay at 130, get ritch, make a 130 water> 130 warrior> 130 tro/fire when you gets ritch enuf.

Wow... thats... fantastic help. Anyone else?

P.S. I already have quite a number of dragonballs to play with - I don't think getting "ritch" is an issue.

make full 1 sock ur archer then make full 1 sock tao gear and start plvling
make 2 sock tao gear (at this point the amount of dbs u currently have will be insignificant)
now make a wat>war> fire/tro and of course while making him construct another 2 sock set for him/her(shouldnt be 2 hard)

by rbing u get more hp and defense however you do not get more attack so as a plvl char there is no bonus(unless ur doing gw which i doubt),
i personally think its good to get archers 120+ only once because you waste dbs by upping your bow and a lot of time and all you gain is more HP after you rb
so archers should either rb at 120 or not rb at all

So are you wanting to be an archer as your only character for gws?

I think I want a character to do most things with... do well as dis city, in guild wars, pk a few people every now and then and be able to defend myself, do well in prof war. Not too interested in plvling people, not the most exciting thing in the world.

I realise the archer isnt the best initial pathway to take to get there, and if i'm best to use this archer to plvl another char up im willing to do that. Would really like to use this char if possible though.

Still havent got a clear idea what to do :(.

^^ he is 100% on right xD ,
archer dont need to be rb , go 130 and get plvl ger and plvl waters , ten make ur own water 130- 130 war - fire/tro/water<- very nice too xD .

AND if you wanna know whats the best rb for archers it is , water-tro-archer , but if you alerdy an archer so go , archer-tro-archer , you will lose stig , but u can use auto stig by any nub water xD
