Punch Wrote:Great, some Archers ^^

Where are you all training right now? (Level?)

Or, what are you guys upgrading right now?

:]

I'm kind of waiting for LHC before training my Bowmaster again. I need to get to 160 eventually... playing my Battle Mage in the meantime. :3 But upgrading's my first priority right now.

Alilatias Wrote:Currently Level 107, training at Pirate's Den 2. Arrow Rain saves my arse from KSers despite my average equips. Trying to level up at least once per day, and get to Bowmaster before March. I wonder if going to Ghost Pirates at Level 110+ is really a good idea or not. I hear they're Fire-weak, but are they really better than Pirates?

MariaColette Wrote:You can do it! Ghost Pirates are definitely better, I mean I got SICK of Captains/Krus on my Wild Hunter by 107, but endured them until 110. It was a blessing being in a new training area to me.

Right now I'm trying to decide... should I make a 3 Line Red Armis and scroll it for DEX or stick with my 16 DEX, 3 Line Unique (9% total all-stat) Pria? I'm a bit OCD on the looks and 16 DEX seems a bit meh. But then again, it doesn't matter all that much when I've got good potential stats... any suggestions? :I

Alilatias Wrote:I'd kill to have a Pria like that, hahaha. Especially if it's red or blue. Any other color and my own OCD over looks takes over. If you have the funds to re-scroll and cube a Red Armis, go right ahead. The FM should be swimming in Red Armis since Captains/Kru drop them, although finding a three-lined one is another story. I got lucky finding mine for 1 mil.

(I love the Armis/Arnah set. Some of the best looking armor in the game. Then again, all archer armor tends to look amazing in comparison to what other classes get.)

Pikamemnon Wrote:Captains & Krus all the way! I know that Inferno is tons better than it used to be and that the ludi pirates are weak to fire but I dont like tanking so much damage for regular training. (around 1500 per bump I think) Maybe i'll go back there when I can kill them a lot faster.

Imma only a couple of levels away from Bow Master..

Punch Wrote:Don't worry about not training at DGP. I too found it's not worth the potions and occasional deaths training there >_>

When you're 120, try Spirit Vikings. Very archer-friendly map, pretty much the only one these days .-.

MariaColette Wrote:I've never actually trained there on an Adventurer (yet), but DGPs were okay on my Wild Hunter. Not exactly a good comparison, though. xD But I have died far too many times there, so I can easily vouch for the deaths part. :x

Once Golden Temple comes out, your training woes should be over until they take it away again. :B

Punch Wrote:I have no idea where to train at Level 134 :/ I'm in El Nido, so crowded maps aren't a big deal.. because it's El Nido xD
And as for my damage.. again.. it's El Nido xP so it's not great..

I tried DGP, Spirit Vikings, all spots in Ludi really, Miner Zombies, and Bains..
Don't like any of them

Any good trainings spots that are archer friendly, many or atleast some spots to snipe mobs?
Thanks :X Hurricane training is fine with me too, just don't know where to Hurricane train..

WingZero Wrote:Red/Blue Dragon Turltes and Rextons/Brextons are the only others I can think of. I heard both are pretty mobby which is good for MM, but BMs don't do too well with mobs so....

Punch Wrote:Why do people say that, may I ask?
What do MMs have that BMs don't, mobbing wise? D:<

Avery Wrote:Marksmen have pierce, a mob skill that does 1150% base damage. This skill multiplies its damage by 1.2 for each additional monster it hits, the damage gets larger. As far as I know, when BM kill a mob, they either use 3rd job mobbing skills or just hurricane everything.

The better mobbing is useful now, but according to some friends, Lionheart Castle has much less mobbing. BM/WH will be faster at training there until we get the latest KMS skill updates which give us 225% ultistrafe and 900% x 4 snipe on bosses.

Fun fact: Pierce is the only skill which can break damage caps because the first arrow can hit max damage, and is then multiplied by 1.2 repeatedly. On 400% buff from pyramid pq, marksmen are easily able to do 2.48 million damage on the last monster because of this.

Worthyness Wrote:early to mid 13x's could go to bains at the armory. godly spawn and flat. no sniping spots, but if you can kill them fast enough, their fireballs don't hit you.

Worthyness Wrote:Don't walk and storm at the same time? o_O dragon pulse --> bomb + hurricane the leftovers--> repeat

Or conversely you could puppet somewhere between you and the bains and just kill them from there/snipe (not really)from the boxes. I guess it would be more suited for marksmen since they can pierce + frozen arrows.
