Archer

Where should I put my stat points?
These are the common builds for archers:

• Full STR - Pure damage.
• 25 SPR / Rest STR - Also damage built, with people that likes crits.
• 25 SPR / 33 DEX / Rest STR - hybrid built with a bit of extra evasion, but less damage.

I don't recommend putting any END in free stat, find END in gears instead.

Where should I put my skill points?

• Power Shot - 5 points in power.
• [Optional] Aim Shot - 5 Points in power.
• Nature's Mist (Level 51) - 5 points in power, 5 points in cool down. Optional 5 points in SP consumption.
• Piercing Shot (Level 75) - 5 points in power, 5 points in cool down. Optional 5 points in SP consumption.

Bow or Crossbow?
Bow up to level 50.
For PVE - optional switch to xbow after level 50 for extra damage for AOE.
For PVP - probably best to stay with bow.

From here

Go with Bow to start off with, xbow from level 50+ if you choose to (personally I dont think it makes a HUGE difference)

No END.. it's not really all that beneficial for an archer, you'll get much more out of putting the points in STR/SPR or maybe DEX...
