how important is lightning tree for archers?

Post by NeoSeiryuu »

I'm a pure STR archer and i'm thinking about investing some points into the lightning tree mainly for the speed boost and teleport move. However, i also noticed that it can also provide me with a magic atk buff and 2 parry buffs. My main concern is whether those 2 skills are worth the SP investment. I'm kinda new to the game so i'm not sure if archers max their imbunes (i think i read 1k+ mp per cast...) so i'm not sure how effect that ~10% buff is. And i've read that parry (dodge) isn't implemented yet but i've also read that more parry = less damage.

If anyone can give me a few point, i'd greatly appreciate it

Light is very usefull for archer. The grasswalk is definitly helpful. Especially when combined with ice. Shoot, if they get close, freeze/slow, teleport and shoot some more. The piercing force is not worth the sp for a pure str.

Well the buff and concentration would come in handy for any mob that reaches you b4 they die. Don't get imbue unless you want to get ganked.
