    Archers!

    Welcome to the forums Archers.

    How do you think Square Enix will make Archer more unique, as part of their class balance and uniqueness plans?

    Personally I fell Archers are pretty good right now but any improvements are very welcome.

    Well, I like my job so far..putting aside skills that DOESN'T work(points to Farshot). Improvements are always welcome! Looking forward to see actions range in the GUI, and changes to skill animations .

    Yeah changes in the animations would be cool. I want bigger and more shiny animations

    I could imagine once they balanced everything, that we're getting new weapon types and change to a sub-class of an archer. But we'll see how SE will impelent that uniqueness stuff.

    Archer is actually the quest I'm least worried about seeing change, to be honest. It has pretty good animations, but I would like to have indicators on where my AOE effects are going, and making it a bit more engaging than just nocking arrows, using buffs, and then attacking.

    Classes in general need to have some crowd control abilities and it would be great if buffs/debuffs became more important across all classes, I think. It would be fun to set different kinds of traps.

    The direction they take with the class in general should focus on good spacing! Well I believe every class should be about good spacing, but Archer especially!

    Right now we do pretty good damage, get little TP per hit (slow TP buildupt), burn through a lot of stamina. the abilities that we do have for crowd control, such as heavy shot and shadowbind are not really effective, since the bind effect last for an extremely short amount of time, but I'm pretty sure making bind stronger would make this class and other range classes too powerful.

    Hiya, leveling arc also. cureently 44. It is a fun class and requires alot of thoughts. As in easy to pull out amazing dmg, but surviving monster's wraths after is the issue. Burst dmg vs Steady consistent dmg.
    I have seen NM parties wipe, due to arcs, not managing their dmgs and then stealing hate from tanks. baad baad baaad archers.
