You forget to mention some of our skills are available in fists. Wings of Grace for example which make your first 3-4k attack null and void and gives us time to stun and switch and aps the crap out of you. Also putting aside the amount of hp we have i'm sitting at 37k hp with a crap ton of evasion.
what archer wanna aps a bm lol, u go full chan and try to nail me to the cross with metal combo <3 im not trying to argue, just open invitation.
if they gonna use fists they better think about it lol, leaves them wide open to SL spark, hf combo and a number of other bm combos because they cant use annoying leaps with fist on lol
I've seen archers that do exactly what ALL the barbs seem to do on this server....3 spark / occult ice / fist aps. It's actually kinda funny...personally know a few that have minimum dex for a bow and stat the rest into str for fists. All I tell people is..."why not just roll a bm?" x.x
I try to play an archer how it's supposed to be played. I will only use fists in pvp when i'm testing and almost always use them on bosses in instances because it's quicker, it's a perma spark solution for me being a demon archer. Of course you have those ppl out there that will try anything and everything they can to get a character to do what they want.
Same most of people that tend to roll full dmg chars are later complaining how squishy they are and don't know the *bad word* how to play defensively and then qq about all tank classes. and the thing is if you are not going insta cast you will use defense gear still use aps on long range and the.other thing is fully recasted nirvana bow with -int with relentless courage it will boost you on 5 aps long range,(the nirvy bow has. Like 4 k att.
Personally, and this is just me, but when it comes to archers, I can't bring myself to sacrifice so much damage that I would get from dex just to stat enough str to carry fists. Archers don't get bp. 'Nuff said.
