Thisis the finalised Guide for bow Acrobats and Rangers. This is a collection of oppinions and suggestions from the entire Acro-Ranger community.

Please use the links to quick jump to specific points on the guide. We hope this guide will help you on your way to Rangerhood and that you will enjoy being a Ranger.

Aimed Shot:

A fairly decent skill. Some people spam it instead of Junk Arrow. Which is fair, considering it has a percentage chance of doing double damage and it casts a bit faster too. Quite effective in PvP when mixed with a bit of Junk Arrow in the action slot.

Like the title says, this build is full DEX. This build should only be used if you are going for the Full DEX Ranger build or intend to go Full DEX Bow Jester. If you are planning to use some STA in your build, I would recommend one of the other builds.

STA: 15

DEX: 43

Recommended Fighting Tactic: 2 Bars Charged Shot or Junk Arrow

Recommended Equipment: Sleepint/Stinger Set +5, Bow of Accuracy +3, Arek ring x 2, Mental Necklace

RECOMMENDED BUILD

Low STA High DEX Build

This build is the build my new Acrobat is running with. I don?t know if the STA actually is enough to cause that much of a difference between this build and the Full DEX build, but since it works I thought I might as well put it in.

Divide your points between INT and DEX for the first 2 levels until INT reaches 25. Then if you decide you want to go with the INT Based AoE Build at level 60, add INT at spaced intervals like every 5 levels. This should be able to keep up with the increase in MP demand from your skills. You can decide to put 1 or 2 points. If you start with 25 points of INT at level 17, and add 2 points every level that is a multiple of 5, (e.g. 2 points at 20, 2 points at 25 Ect. Ect.) you end up with 41 points of INT at level 55. If you add only 1 point, that?s 33 points in INT at level 55. It just depends on how much INT you want when you start AoEing.

If your not doing the INT Based AoE Build at level 60, add a maximum of 25 INT. Anymore and its pretty much a waste. Remember, if you really want more MP, grab a mental necklace or some shineglasses.

This is not the be all and end all of how you should level your bow acro. This is just one way that I have found to be effective enough. In the end, you will determine how you want to play your character =)

Switch back to Bow, and use Junk Arrow again till it levels. Then switch back to Pulling until that gains a level. Keep going until they are both level 4. And there, you have it. Pulling already level 4! You can throw away your yoyos now, (unless you want to learn yoyo skills.)

Now if your not already level 16, level up till you reach it. Now your Junk Arrow should be around level 5. Now is the time you can choose to kill 1 or 2 levels higher than yourself. So level up to 18, cause then we have to train FastWalker!

Okay time to level Fastwalker. You may think that fastwalker is pretty pointless at first. But just keep using it and leveling it up. You need the skill to be level 6 by the time your level 30. I used it after every fight, I ran everywhere as much as possible and used it when I was shopping around the user shops in SM.

Well since your level 18, why are you still in Flaris? Blink over to Saint Morning with a Saintmorning blinkwing you can purchase from the Magic Shop. I prefer to level on Saint Morning than Flaris at level 18, as bangs are closer to Saintcity and there is more shops to go and check out

Always be on the lookout for your versions of level 30 greens. Either the Layered set for you Males or Miragle Set for us Females The Bow of Spirit is a MUST to get. Be careful when upgrading it though, I lost my first one from a failed break from +0 to +1. Luckily a good friend gave me their +6 bow, so I was happy again ^^.

Also you now have the valuable skill Dark Illusion (available to those who got Fastwalker to level 6) and the not so valuable skill Silent Shot. These two skills pretty much go hand in hand as silent shot gains more power if you use it in Dark Illusion.

I guess it would be good in PvP, but seeing as you need to get that skill to level 9, its just so painful >

You should be able to level; 3 levels higher now without much difficulty. Also try to hunt a few giants now. Try to hunt the same level as you. Try not to go beyond a 3 level difference. Giant Hunting is a good way to get money. Have a go =)

You will probably be leveling at 4 or 5 levels above you now with your new equips. I suggest head over to Darkon 1 and start killing Leyenas after Master Mage Pranksters. You will find more people to party with and be able to keep you company thought the tough 15 levels to come.

You should also be nearing a maxed out Junk Arrow soon. Awesome work! You can keep going with Junk Arrow, but I do suggest that after you have maxed a skill to either reskill it into another and continue to fight with junk arrow, or start leveling another skill such as Aimed Shot or Auto Shot or Arrow Rain if you are going to go AoE ranger once you hit level 60.

Arrow rain is not good a good skill to use on its own. It has a ten second cooldown, so to level it I suggest casting your Action Slot, then Arrow Rain then Action Slot or singular attacking skill (eg. Junk Arrow) until the monster is dead. Arrow rain is a good skill after level 60, but pretty much useless for hardcore AoEing right now. Still try and level it to a decent level if you are planning to AoE.

I. The Great Driller Massacre

Once have reached the long journey to level 60, ranger life begins (unless of course, you choose the Jester path)! To kick off the quest you will need to talk to [Ranger Master]Eliff who will ask you to do the task of slaying 20 regular Drillers.

II. Delivering The Letter

You will be asked to kill Rubo who is located in the Darkon Caves where Syliacas and Greemongs reside. Rubo is located in the southernmost area of the Syliacas, near the Grownup Syliacas. Slay him and get the letter.

Once you have finished with Rubo, flyff to Flaris and head to the Mas dungeon entrance. Kimel is located near the entrance, right beside his best buddy, Radyon. Rumor has it that they developed an attraction to each other (No, just kidding).

Because the max points for STA has already been reached in this build, you can pump up DEX every level. At level 80 both stats should be level. You can start adding points to STA anytime you want after that.

Pump DEX and STA evenly for about 5 (or 10) levels. Then whack all your points onto DEX. The High DEX rating will increase you damage, blocking percentage and evasion.

You can use 2x plugs +2, but if you can get some Plugs +4, you will find it much easier.

You can remain with 40 STA for as long as you feel comfortable. I personally just added STA like mad for 12 levels before slowing down and adding DEX instead. A lot of people still use this build at level 80, but an RM is a must.

The good thing about this build is that if you stick to 40 STA and keep pumping DEX, you can also become a capable 1v1 attacker. This can help you avoid having to restate if the AoEing tactic becomes boring or slow.

If you start at 20 STA, evenly distribute your points between DEX and STA until STA is at 30. Then pump DEX until you need more STA. If you feel you are taking too much heat in battle add more STA. Try to keep your STA at the lowest possible amount so you can get more advantage from DEX.

If you decide to go hybrid ranger, you must have one thing in mind. It will be hard. VERY HARD.

Either hard spending 20 bucks in a reskill or going to a high-hp monster (trangs for example) and spamming crossline.

As for build, I?m not actually the most recommended one for this kind of PvPer, since I?m AOE. A DEX build would do fairly better than I do due to a higher damage out-put (but could probably die in ohko from many classes =P), but then a good peision necklace/shineglasses should come in play.

I bought 5 Varife bows and bumped them all to +3 and +3 element for each. That adds usually about an extra 100 damage per arrow and still cheaper than 1 Guardian Bow. I will do this again at level 70 with Defnan bows. Will probably buy a Historic Bow at 75 (level 75 rare) if I can.

From level 72 I?ve been AoEing mush till level 75. At that point I went into the Dekanes mines to kill Pinkys which started off going pretty slow (had a level 72 ranger with me and we teamed up on single Pinkys to get decent time) exp was great at that time Smile. I managed to get to 82 in about a week thanks to the mines. Now I can easily AoE the entire spawn of Pinkys if I have a ringmaster with me (I have mastered perfect block) although I usually just solo them seeing as I kill at decent speed soloing too.

FUNCTION KEYS

[2] This gets me to Bar2

[F8] Cast Perfect Block

[F7] Cast Bow Mastery

[F6] Cast Nature (for leveling purposes)

[F5] only if MP is below 110

[F4] Cast Fast Walker to run fast

Remember the key is Speed and Freezing time, as well as initiative. If you can run ahead of them at the beginning enough so that you can launch an Ice arrow into them before they hit you, this will sometimes make or break your AoE. 40% of the times where I have not done this, I have wound up close to death or dead D:

From level 70 i was 1v1 Mushies till 72 At that point I went into the Dekanes mines to kill Pinkys which started off going pretty slow (had a level 72 ranger with me and we teamed up on single Pinkys to get decent time) exp was great at that time Smile.I can easily AoE the entire spawn of Pinkys if I have a ringmaster with me (I have mastered perfect block) although I usually just solo them seeing as I kill at decent speed soloing too.

Honestly, I was pure dex until level 60, but I decided to slowly change to AoE, and had 30 sta by the time I got to fishies =) I thought pure dex ranger could be really good, but I realized that AoE was incomparably faster. Then I had electirc armor and +5 set, and I still could AoE the whole spawns up to about +4-5 my level. Since then, I got my sta to 40, but then left the rest into dex. My stats look something like this (Base / with equips):
