  • Go to twitch and look at some of Bio3s's previous streams. He is on the german server and they've already received the updates. He is usually top dps in his PVE partys. I believe he is full sf+15
  • His channel is Bio3s, sorry if the apostrophe gave confusion
  • and he has a dps meter so you can see his total crits % as well as dps per second

    Uhm German Server?
    You know that he is playing on the Russian Servers and not on EU?

    Hello there-

    SSHM Archer POV:
    *note that he uses Feign Death to iframe because of the talent system in kTERA
    *the player plays around sub-20ms ping
    *no dps meter

    *무기카이락 15 | Weapon SF 15
    *빛투셋 | Conflate gear set
    *피빕옵, 쌍속격 | PvP rolls, Double Energetic (most likely tier III)

    First boss


    Second boss


    Last boss


    Cheers,

    seraphinush

  • Dat rapid fire Q_Q
  • Is there any vids with a slaughter +12 with the 15% critical buft

    That rapid fire make more than 90% of archer population sad when looking it. Since archer is balanced around rapid fire in korea, while natera people play with a average ping of 60ms.

    I wish EME could male something regarding this.


    Tip: rapid fire with that ping in the video is 2nd highest priority skill for archer, just behind roa, since it crits 100% of the time with the passive and the crit rate fix
  • I wish they will rework RF with archer "rework" but i don't get my hopes up, it's pretty much known that they don't care about western players.

    I've played on rutera and test new archer passive with 50 ping (pretty decent for rapid fire)
    DFHM, died 2 times (jump in wipe waves cos iframe too fast, this lowping was suprise for me lol)
    Slaughter 1% mw bow with useless double cdr, dreadnaught set, radiant in armor... just geared this char in 1 day.

    with 155 green critrate, [filtered] crystals, rolls, gear, and one +9 crit etching (50 ms ping) I make better dmg than my 200 ping perfect archer on US tera with 255 green, double brooch stuff etc.
    rapid fire is confirmed 97-100% critrate even with my [filtered] stats and top3 dps skill now. Radiant is 90-100% too.
    Rain/radiant>rapid>thunder/PA/ET(based on critrate)>fillers like melee rotation etc. is dps tier skill now
    I'll gonna gear this archer a bit and break 1.5kk/s with slaughter bow.

    with vm7, doublebrooch and decent pt archer can deal ~2-2.2kk/s dmg. So with his endurance debuff he's become tier1 DPS in dreadspire and can do like ~3m/s with slaying.

    So is it wise to keep Keen III etchings or go for energetic III for lower RA/RF cd?

    With 2x ene III you'll have 7 sec RA cd and 4 sec RF cd, and seeing that these crit 100%, you can spam them more often. The keen from wep and gloves are wasted on them, tho they help other skills (that guy on RU Tera had +155 crit + mystic aura and had pretty decent crit rate)...
  • I don't think so, you lose a huge amount of crit. RF cd is low enough, and 5% CDR isn't a big deal either (especially for skills you mentionned, 0.255s for RF and 0.425s for Radiant with nostrum). And other skills would have an awful crit rate. Attack speed is nice but I don't feel like it makes a difference PvE wise (even if I notice it). I guess it would work if you really have a nice ping (below 20) to abuse RF, tbh build will differ a lot between a 20, a 50 and a 100+ms archer. I play around 60-70ms and RF will be average at this ping, it takes me ~2.5s to cast a full RF (counting that awful anim lock on the last hit), while a non-overcharged arrow takes me roughly 1.6-1.7s and hits harder (even pen arrow considering 65% crit chance). Still way better than overcharging but I won't be able to use hit as much as I'd like.

    Yeah I have 40-80 ms too (this is really annoying, sometimes my arrows get cancelled if I realease it when my ping is 80 and then its back to 40 when I press Final salvo).

    I have Quatrefoil brooch and when I pop it I don't even feel the 12% more attack speed at all, let alone 8%... The cdr from weapon (going to replace +14 crit roll on patch day) should give enough cdr to spam RF and RA almost like this guy from Korea, I hope



    He has 2xEnergetic III though, you can see how the lack of crit rate affects his PA...
