End is kinda needed for archers since they kill monsters by speed, not by power (Mages). I don't think that they also need Dex since they get enough through leveling and some buffs (They get dex from buffs right)
a 1:2 Str/Spr build sounds good to me since high crit rate sounds appropriate for archers

im lvl 16 archer and i hav 6:10 dex:end
i just kinda randomly put it either of the skills but i must say ive seen a high lvl archer with full end block about half of the attacks of a mage in a free battle zone
i can do really short tanks for the parties i do with my friend, hes a lower level so i just do the auto attack while he kills watever monster and we usually fight yellow monsters
i suggest full end but thats just me

if your archer kills the mob before he can get more than 1 or 2 hits on you and your evasion is high enough that you dodge a consistant amount of shots, whats the point of the extra HP and def?

I don't remember the exact ratio I had on my archer, but I put stats in only STR and SPR, and I don't think it does too well. It doesn't have enough SPR to crit significantly and it doesn't have enough STR to do enough damage.

I reckon it would be hard for archers to kill before the monster reaches him. Even mages, who deals a great a mount of damage, have to tank one or two hits sometimes. So they would need the END.

gotten 2 archers to 20+ now and i have no problem with it. even monsters equal and a bit higher than your level can be taken if you spam skills. and with an SPR intensive build (which i've tried to show my reasoning for one) you can spam skills pretty easy.
average monster speed, an archer can get 4 shots in before mob can attack (obviously less with ranged mobs) and as early as level 17, archers have 4 skills. so worst comes to worst, you can throw 4 skills at a higher level mob and bring it down before it touches you. sure you will use more SP pots/stones that way, but you should cut the amount of HP pots and stones you use down by a significant number.

I've been making a SPR archer, and I have to say even at a level as low as 9 it seems to be relatively effective. I can often kill most reasonable enemies before they hit me, and with my defense scroll surplus from my cleric even if they do it's not for much damage. Already I have a decent critrate which should only improve, and I have plenty of SP for my skills; the cooldown is more of a factor in levelling than the SP cost.

I've tried the STR:END buid and it did quite decently. I was able to take on monsters higher than me and not worry too much about getting hit either.
Right now I'm going full SPR and have to say I like it so far. I mean if you use the skills right you can take down monsters without using all of the skills (if that makes sense). I can't wait to get my job change and try a crossbow and see how things work out then. I usually choose bows cause I like speed and whatnot but I'm going to need some added power anyway so yeah~
