Archers or Mage

Fear skill... but you don't get that until... how many levels later? Majority of the players are not going to get past 40.

loveless, err..... actually archers still get party till 40+
once ur in the 50+, u end up in lvl 50~60 parties in which mage have their fear skill oredi, u have your aoe poison
people would prefer to kill fast and aoe monster for high exp gains
at that point of time, archers dont get to party much unless in guild/friends or tag with lvl 40+ that's what i found out
Although mage sounds so superior now, i'm sticking to my archer
forever not having regrets =)

You misunderstood me. I'm saying that a majority quit before reaching 40-50 or are slow levelers. Kids usually play about 1-2 hours a day depending so most do not have Fear or Nature's Mist to count on.

In AEW I always see at least one Archer in a party. I used to be depended on as a tanker there too... O.o

Good for archers with big jobs! xDDD
Well, yeah, I only play around 2 hours a day on weekdays. >_____<
And a lot of people quit before reaching lvl 40 D= well, at least in most MMOs.
And I think that, well, grinding really isn't always that bad with an archer xD Maybe I'm wrong about AoEing, but I kill fast enough o__O then again, I'm not very high leveled, so I'm probably wrong.
Do parties not accept archers because of their class? For now, I'm being accepted. I haven't met a situation yet where someone goes "oh, it's an archer. No need for those, don't invite her".

I think in most cases people do not want more than one Archer in their party. But the other time when I went for TK we had a tank, a cleric, and three archers. :P I guess the bad thing about having a lot of Archers is that they draw aggro way too easily from all the DoT damage they give out.
