    Server updates 5/25: Erenor Weapon, Armor and Accessories XP requirements changes!

    Heya, will there be a quest update to make the first dozen main quests streamlined like in AA:U, allowing you to quickly grind out gear/exp until 4k GS?

    Short: Buff Archery

    Archery is a skillset with essentially no AoE options. The majority of its damage comes from a buff applied to a single target. Its main combo - a slow - can only be applied to one target. You're saying that the role Archers are supposed to fill - is AoE zergs, correct? Then how come Archery...

    Short: Buff Archery

    Sji, are you a developer, or a forum moderator? May I have the reason why we can't have class balance changes? You don't have to tell us "it's not in the spirit of the game" if you are simply unable to change the code around it. Can you link me a thread explaining the exact details for this...

    Short: Buff Archery

    It's more so that 90% of the damage comes from Endless Arrows. Endless Arrows is bad like Rapid Strike is bad - it hits fast, but it hits weak. Therefore, when armor cuts out something like 50% of your damage, you deal poor burst damage. So you can't pressure opponents. Basically, to win a duel...

    Short: Buff Archery

    Yes, but Battlerage only needs to get within 20 meters of us to use Shadowstep. Or Lasso. Or Tiger Strike. Or Behind Enemy lines. They have more gap closers than us. They have more speed boosts than us. They have more CC immunity than us. We only have a 7 meter deadzone to use. Mages, who also...

    Short: Buff Archery

    Wrong and wrong. And as stated in previous points, it seems you already skimmed over it. I stated that Intensity gives you immunity to fear. It does not clear it. Battlerage has bondbreaker and behind enemy lines, that clears nearly every single CC in the game. The problem we're having with...

    Nerf Darkrunners before everyone is a darkrunner

    The main problem with Dark Runners isn't their damage - their damage is high, yes, and could use tweening to be weaker. The main problem is that they have specific single target stun-trip-stun-trip combos that make it impossible to fight back. Sure, mages hit hard. But Dark Runners bum rush...

    Short: Buff Archery

    It does NOT need a trade off or nerf, it only needs buffs. It's relatively balanced if it had similar damage to every other class, but it does not. Battlerage needs a flat nerf with no trade offs. Archery has very few skills that grant mobility - Float, Deadeye, Concussive Arrow, Missile Rain...

    Ebonsong or Trickster or Oracle?

    Hey, Archery player here. For PvE: I recommend Ranger with an Obsidian+ Shortspear and Dagger (offheals for days). You have decent CC and AoE with a Bonewall>Missile Rain>Skewer combo, which is good for grinding early on (if you're playing mostly solo.) Having two weapons gives you the Dual...

    Short: Buff Archery

    Agreed. The core problem with Archery is that the majority of its damage scales from gear. The main problem would be Endless Arrows, which does 57% of your base ranged damage. The majority of other base attacks, like firebolt, may also share this, but they hit in 3 parts; each part also...

    Short: Buff Archery

    So what you're saying is... you need powerful gear to be effective. But only against classes who don't have Defense as one of their talent trees. And on top of that, you need to have all of your gem slots filled. By then, you're only effective late game, when you're hundreds of hours into...

    Short: Buff Archery

    I'll keep it short: Archery is the weakest core skill in the game, by far. Please buff the damage by around 20%, minimum, to even consider keeping it in line with anything else. Just change the evasion passive to a flat out damage buff, change double recurve into a short Ranged Critical buff on...

    Adjustments for Vitalism

    Massive post incoming. Prepare yourselves. Heya! I played as a Ranger on Live, and let me tell you - the amount of flak I had from daring to play against the meta was severe. But here, it's a much more open community, and I'm happy to say that people encourage me to play what makes me happy...
