Hi everyone, i would like to ask if its neccessary to learn all the skills? Considering the price for them, should i just concentrate on mastering the essential ones and leave out those not so useful ones (ie multishot)?

It is not essential to get all the skills, but it will just be more beneficial for you if you do. From what I've heard, Multishot isn't a very popular skill and not all archers have it.

However, since it doesn't require skill points to learn the skill, you can learn it any time you want. So if you later feel that you need multishot, you can learn it any time.

As for mastering skills, yeah, I like the idea of concentrating on certain skills, rather than putting 1 skill point into each skill you have which doesn't really help.

Learning doesn't require skill points, but empowering (mastering) them does, just in case you didn't know. o:

Yup, I never bought the aoe skill since I cant exactly tank more than 1 mob at a time, so it would be quite useless for me. Since I'm a pvp build, I only choose to learn the DoT skills and aim/power shots.

I bought multi-shot because I constantly party with a cleric, and because of the clerics' invincible, heal, and whatnot, I can drag an entire mob onto me using the AoE and kill them off.
What skills you buy depends on how you like to play, and same with empowerments.
I like to buy all the skills and the upgrades just in case. =/ and trust me, I've been in a LOT of just in case moments, LOL. Mostly came out of my own stupidity.
For cooldown/sp usage, I chose sp usage cause I like to conserve money >__>" But yeah, it's mainly up to your play style.

Thanks for the feedback

Guess i'll probably stick to the main ones for now and get the others if i really need it later.

To be perfectly honest, I have NEVER seen any archer use the multishot skill untill AFTER I bought it and used it. Then I saw it once. I love it. While no, it does not do a great ammount of damage, its good for pulling mobs away from people who cant handle them to someone who can. Not to mention I like to ue it in kingdom quests where the tanks have two or more enemies in close proximity. I mean every point of damage helps, right?
