Pure Dex:
Utilizes the naturally high evasion and aim of the class. The lack of str/spr however can lower damage output. Invest in a enhanced weapon and or outfits/accesories
Pure Str:
A build that emphasises the Archers natural high damage. Ideal for both bow and crossbow uses. Investing in enhanced armor covers defence and ensuring end/dex/spr stats will cover the stats not built upon.
25spr/ (33) Dex, Rest Str
A well rounded build that emphasises all the Archers good points. Damage output, critical rate, aim and evasion. Invest in enhanced end gear to cover defence.
33dex / Rest End
A solid build for archers wanting to be able to take some damage while still dealing large amounts of damage.
