[RED] Archer Skill Builds

This guide has some big hate against strafe. Level 98 before even adding 1 point? It's only 36% damage below double shot, and way more awesome-looking, plus its damage is more consistent due to using 4 arrows instead of 2. Even if it's weaker, it looks awesome, and is fun to play with. After spending like 50-60 levels with double shot, why would you want to spend 30 more? Most people read guides as they would a bible, and take everything at face value, so they will actually wait until 98 to add a point for fear of 'messing their build up'. You should at least mention that one might want to put a point into strafe early on because it's not much worse than double shot (better if you like regularity), and spices the class up a nice bit. Also, I never played up to a ranger, but wouldn't it be smarter to leave thrust at 1 and max strafe? Strafe still has occasional use in 4th job from what I've heard (you can't jumpshoot hurricane), and there are just so many endgame items that add speed that it's hard not to max out, even if you get only 3 speed from thrust. In any case, nobody should ever benefit from having +30 speed in skill form in these modern times.

I'm sorry. Should my build be aimed to get 1 in every skill first then so it spices pomegranate up too? You don't spend 50 to 60 levels with Double Shot because no one should use Double Shot while training. If they want to use Double Shot, it's to DPS at a boss, and that is the exact opposite reason of why they would want level 1 Strafe.
