Overview

Archers are experts at long-range combat with Bows and Arrows. Their range gives them several advantages, which includes:

• The ability to change the element of their weapon quickly by changing their arrow type. This makes Archers able to exploit elemental advantages easily.
• Accuracy and damage is increased by the same stat (DEX), allowing all attacks to connect and deal a lot of damage.
• Range enables archers to defeat stationary or slow-moving opponents that are stronger than they are without being hit.

Drawbacks of the Archer Job include:

• Low VIT limits their ability to survive when they are caught up in melee situations.
• Require Arrows for every attack with a bow. Running out of arrows in a firefight can make an Archer useless.

Job Changing

Once you are Job Level 10, head to the Archer Guild (pay_arche 145, 164) in the Archer Village north of Payon and talk to the Archer Guildsman (payon_in02 64, 71). He changes your job to Archer and rewards you with a Novice Composite Bow [3], and 1 Fire Arrow, Silver Arrow, and Normal Quiver.

High Archer

Once the character has been reborn as a High Novice and attained Job Level 10, they can become a High Archer. They gain the same skills and job bonuses as their non-transcendent First Job. In addition, they gain special colors in their sprites, +25% HP and SP, and automatically learn any quest skills that had been previously obtained in their non-transcendent First Class.
