If archers are pitied by parties, why don't they just stop pitying high level archers and just invite them?
For pure grinding, archers should be inferior to mages. That just sucks outright, especially now that mages have OUR ability, DoTs. OUR speciality is gone, we are not SPECIAL anymore, because mages can do what we do, and do it BETTER. I'm not going to change classes, because archers are the right class for me. I have to agree, though, that it does seem we're kinda ripped off D=
