Aggro?

Is it possible for an Archer to take aggro? Or do they just gotta stand back? My lv. 15 Archer has 41 defence....

+rep to helper

Any class can technically take aggro.

Just depends on circumstances.

If you hit all DoT skills (ie. poison, bleed)... and you keep hitting it at a good pace. Yes, you'll pull aggro. But it shouldn't happen if you have a good tanker.

A good advice is if you see your tank stunned or in fear... pull back on your attacks so the mob doesn't turn to you.

My question is, can an Archer with +END gear take the aggro or is it too much for them?

Yup. I can tank 4-5 Orcs at 55+ with no problems (not that I would want to) with END gear.

oh you mean like if you can tank?

Archers have been knowing to tank KQ bosses in the absense of a Fighter.

But yeah you probably need the END gear and scrolls.

I just read on the official forum that an archer solo-ed Mara KQ at lvl 24 with Cleric buff, scrolls and about 300-350 pots and stones. But he tanked and killed all for Mara/Marlone by himself.

I steal aggro all the time, since I was lvl 32. xP The tank sometimes gets mad.

But I'm also able to tank, aswell.
Me and my guildmate, who is an archer, always end up being the tanks ^^
