Slayer or Archer to make money

in PvE Discussion
Heya guys, i'm thinkin to roll a dps class to farm BAM's and do dungeons/corsair to make money for a future second char, i'm between archer and slayer, i was lvling my slayer but his damage is kinda low (lvl 42) and i have some mana issues. at higher lvl it becomes better? or worth to roll the archer cause it's good at corsair and farm well with RoA and the new 15% buff that will come?

    Slayer is a solid class at 65, and archer will be getting a buff. For now, Slayer would be an easier choice to farm IoD. But if you do pvp, I think archer might suit you more. My opinion, though.

    Slayer has a better time for pvp and even IoD money farming....... archer are god awful at IoD and pvp they are good

    Not archer for farming. Dear god. Not unless you want to spend 2 hours doing your IoD dailies. Worst possible class to pick for gold farming.

    And I say this as an archer main.

    Maybe next patch will make us more viable. But in current patch, quickest IoD farming classes are brawler, ninja, and surprisingly mystic.

    Avoid ARcher or Zerker...they r the most [filtered] DPS in TERA....

    if u want easy gold, use CC to swipe or grind ur [filtered] off 24/24 in TERA.

    Ninja, Brawler, or Reaper is your best choice for gold farming in TERA!

    Make a gold farming alt, such as brawler. You won't have to deal with stress killing high tier bam in IOD with archer, sorc, zerker, priest and so on.

    Slayer is easier than archer, since slayer can stun and hit the bam from behind easier than archer. But, again, IOD bam stun duration is short. And, it turns around super fast.

    I think, top gold making class is Brawler and Mystic.
    2nd is Ninja, Gunner and Lancer.

    Apparently, DPS Mystics are viable nowadays. So that's that.

    I have no problem farming as an Archer these days.
    But for PVE/PVP farming maybe there are other classes more suitable. I think that Brawler does that job perfectly well. And on top you do have a tank class then. You didnt mention your Main class.

    Dont forget also to Master another crafting area. Crafting is really underrated in Tera and many people make tons of gold from that. Ideally, you should have 4 Char, so you can have the 4 Areas Masterised. In order of Importance Etching, Alchemy, Armorcrafting (Aterstod Oils), Weaponcrafting (rather useless nowadays).
