Archer's pvp style

Post by Arbitrator »

Greetings.

Do(pure str) archers tank all the hits in PVP or do they hit and run. Wouldn't an archer be susceptible to the knock down/stun attacks of the other PVP blade/glaive builds. In that case, wouldn't it be more effective if an archer hits and runs in PVP instead of tanking all the hits. (Since an archer with maxed "break heaven" series would have increased range and this could be used in combination with the lightning "windwalk" series that increases the speed of the archer and allows it to teleport over a short distance.)

Thanks ^^.

You would think so but im pretty sure that a blade or a glaive can out pot the damage u will be doing if you just keep running.

hit n' runs good for people over your level, anybody lower you can tank easy as long as you dont get frozen/stunned.

While hunting last night I smacked a lvl 60 blade user and ran for my life half way accross the map(from the eastern ferry road to the 4th bridge down near Jagan), this guy was chasing me for like 2 minutes, 1 hit wouldnt kill me so he needed to get right on me to use a Combo. He was wairing garments I guess because he was slightly faster than me but he still couldnt get his combo attack working. The only reason I died is because I didnt see thay my grasswalk ran out. so yes, graswalk is a great idea if you want to be any kind of build I guess...

u meant to tank all the hits because ice wall absorbs alot of the dmg so u can take alot of it and u just need a high crit bow den pwn but if they start using KD RUN!
