[RED] Archer Skill Builds

There's the option for Snipers to max Thrust at the expense of max Blizzard. The only reason to get 20 Blizzard instead of 16 is because level 22 Blizzard has a 4 second freeze, but honestly, the only times I can think of where you'd be partying with a Paladin or White Knight is if you're bossing. Bosses can't be frozen and Mages should be the mob control (if you were using Blizzard for that, which is stupid).

There are other ways to raise skill levels outside of Combat Orders. Thrust is such a low priority skill since you can easily gain max speed from equipment. Six Thrust is already 18 speed. Add in 10 from a Speed Pill and you're 12 from max. You can get another 10 from your Crossbow since every other stat that comes from those is useless. I'd rather Blizzard do the extra damage every time I attack than move a little faster. If you want the extra speed, go for it. I won't stop you. But the main reason everyone caps Blizzard at 21 for the 3 second freeze is because the extra 9 skill points spent to max it give the exact same damage increase one skill point does in Big Bang.

Just something I should point out while glancing through this...

111: +3 Thrust [3]
112: +3 Puppet [6]
113: +3 Puppet [9]
114: +1 Thrust [10]

^ Should be fixed, no?

Fixed, thanks.
