Monk Sub Job Abilities

[BlaiseLallaise]

On this same general subject, suppose a Monk has also capped Lancer, but has never once picked up a bow. Is said Monk gimped, or merely risking enmity issues?

Well the main archer skills are quelling and chameleon which are both emnity control skills. Other than that you're missing a tiny bit of tp from quelling. Problem is there's literally only 3 worthwhile lancer skills and so you're only using 3/5 sub ability slots so technically you are 'gimped' in that sense. Hawks eye is only level 6 and decoy is like level 2 though so in literally 1 leve you could have *something* in those extra 2 slots. Chameleon takes a lot longer to get granted but quelling isn't so bad @22.

EDIT; So basically go out and do like 1 archer leve so you at least have decoy and hawk's eye to set. Then work towards quelling I guess. Hawk's eye and quelling are decent enough until you feel like leveling archer all the way to 42 ^^;
