This build, primarily, is a skill spammer build, using the main damage skill, Arrow Rain until lvl 240 on which you will now get the Crossfire, our best AOE skill. Pretty hard to level build, coz you must always have MP pots on your bag, or must need a buddy hw (for mp heal) or buddy bishop (for bless) to lessen the amount of MP pots you may use during all those times. Leveling is hard because this build has no evasion (AGI) to help you survive, and not enough HP (VIT) to take all the damages from mobs/bosses.
“Kiting” is needed here, the shoot and run technique, where you need to distance yourself to the target, shoot the AR skill, then back away again, ready to shoot the 2nd AR, and so on, until the target dies. Mostly effective against slow-moving mobs/bosses. Level 180+ skill, the Frozen Arrow, will help you utilize “kiting”, except for boss fights, they maybe froze but their movement will not slow down compared when you used it on regular mobs. Frozen arrow will helps you a lot in leveling once
You can only use Crossfire after reaching level 240. Sounds tough right? :P At first, i dont know how to use it too, but a fellow sniper friend, Christ, show me how :3 You will just only use Area Rain and then do Crossfire as a combo within the 6 seconds Special Status time triggered after using Area Rain. Upon having the right -item delay and -skill delay set, you can spam 4-5 CF per 6 seconds. Crossfire now be your main damage skill. AOE all the way :P
Maxing DEX first, then STR is the right way for this build. Coz DEX add points to ATK (for damage output), HIT (for accuracy and number of arrows you can hit the target) and CSPD (for skill delay), then STR also add points in ATK. After maxing both of them, I greatly recommend now to use your points on CRIT. After maxing all 3 of them, its all depend on your game play style again, add in in VIT for extra HP, coz you need more HP now, because of the AOE skills, or put in on AGI, yes, for evasion. :3
