Sure, I can buy the 2 gil each warped arrows and then my DPS would drop closer to the other DD's (Arrows also affect acc and crit. hit rate). But I don't. I use the arrows that are optimal for my rank when there is a party or NM hunt run going on so that I can further help that party/linkshell/etc.

And to those that want to say "But ARC can attack from a far, safe distance", they are also the weakest to attacks out of all of the other DD's and with that you also have to consider the very high Enmity that an ARC's abilties/attacks create.

the reward for you buying arrows is that you can do damage without taking damage, what was the reward for ninjas buying elemental magic tools? debuffing the mob and doing damage from a distance. Your best arrows shouldnt put you above other DD, they should keep you close to other DD, it really is a fact that if you manage your hate you can attack with no risk, that is simply not an option for other DD, almost every mob in the game has close range aoes, most of multiple types.

A charachter who attacks by throwing money at the mob should not be the most hax job in the game, all your saying is that you should be able to buy your way to being the best DD in this game.

Every DD can attack from range for money too, it just costs more, does less damage, and we cant use any attack based tp skills with it. Basically archer gets way more bang for thier buck with ranged attacks. Look at it as savings.
