Silkroad Online Forums

i've recently started playing Silkroad and chose to be an archer. i've read up on sp farming and it sounds very time cosuming =X. What would be the best build for an archer? str or int, fire light or ice? i've tried to look up guides but haven't seen a good indepth one of what i need to max, skills etc.

I'd go pure str archer ice/ sub fire.

Ice is good for PvE and PvP until you fight guys with ice immune jewellry and all.

And also fire is good to have for the phy damage increase buffs.

oo thanks i have a pure str lvl 13 archer right now.

what skills should i max? i know to max out bow skills anti devil, 2 shot, etc. but what about the ice and fire skills. would i need grasswalk, heal, or any others?

I suggest putting some points into lightning for the grasswalk. As for the bow skills I am not really an expert for the bows I see people using the anti devil and 2-3-4 arrow skills.
Well as for ice and fire I suggest you to get only the imbue for ice , yes sounds strange but the defense buff isn't really good and neither is the passive . This is cause it isn't with % but with fixed numbers. Fire however has much better buffs and passive , which do have % boost so get the physical increase buffs for fire and perhaps the Fire Shield you will need a shield to buff but you can change to shield buff and then get your bow.
ooh yea , get the hawk summoning skill which increases attack rating , also get passive for the bow they help allot.
And perhaps you should try wearing garment ( donno if you are already ) cause you can freeze/kill monsters at lower levels before they reach you and the bonusses are very neat. ( + 20 % movement and - 20 % mp cost )

i meant to say Ice OR fire. my bad ^_^;; i want to become a thief and me and my friend are gonna be archers. can someone tell me which skills i need to max before i spend my sp? thanks alot
