3. 🏹 Skill Combo Without Rapid Fire and Cooldown Utilization
· This build completely avoids using Rapid Fire skills and primarily utilizes skills with Block/Evasion Ignore effects.
· The main skill composition and effects are as follows:
· The core strategy is to use the 'Snipe' skill to reduce the cooldowns of skills like Guided Arrow as much as possible, allowing for infinite skill rotation.
· 'Snare Burst' is only used when other skill cooldowns are available.
· The main skill composition and effects are as follows:
| Skill Name | Main Effect |
|---|---|
| Gale Force | Attack Speed Increase |
| Awl | Block/Evasion Ignore |
| Target Lock | Block/Evasion Ignore, Critical Hit |
| Guided Arrow | Block/Evasion Ignore, Multi-hit |
· The core strategy is to use the 'Snipe' skill to reduce the cooldowns of skills like Guided Arrow as much as possible, allowing for infinite skill rotation.
· 'Snare Burst' is only used when other skill cooldowns are available.

4. 🛡️ Equipment and Arcana Setup for Both Stability and Damage
· For skill cooldown reduction, the title 'Reuse' and the 'Talis of Void' wings are used.
· The Arcana setup simultaneously supplements defense and attack power.
· This Arcana setup compensates for the lack of defense from lower-grade equipment (e.g., Dragon Knight, Ancient Spirit, Barkma, Geomryong, Evil Decurion), increasing survivability.
· The 500 defense gained from Arcana is equivalent to more than 12 enhancements of general equipment (compared to 40 defense per enhancement), enabling stable dungeon play.
· Instead of accuracy stats, survival stats like Iron Wall, Regeneration, Blood Resistance, Evasion, Agility, and Critical Damage Resistance, along with Critical Attack Power, were prioritized in the setup.
· The Arcana setup simultaneously supplements defense and attack power.
| Arcana Set | Composing Items | Main Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Pure Blood 4-piece | Parchment, Pure Mirror, Bell, Thousand Layers | Supplements Defense and Attack Power |
| Frenzy 2-piece | Chalice, Compass | Supplements Defense and Attack Power |
· This Arcana setup compensates for the lack of defense from lower-grade equipment (e.g., Dragon Knight, Ancient Spirit, Barkma, Geomryong, Evil Decurion), increasing survivability.
· The 500 defense gained from Arcana is equivalent to more than 12 enhancements of general equipment (compared to 40 defense per enhancement), enabling stable dungeon play.

5. ✨ Evasion-Set Archer: Sacrificing Accuracy for Both Damage and Survivability
· For Archers, accuracy is virtually unnecessary; increasing critical hit and attack power is more efficient.
· In a meta that doesn't use Rapid Fire, you can achieve sufficiently high damage by infinitely rotating Block/Evasion Ignore skills.
· The Strikethrough stat is maintained at 59%.
· We highly recommend a setup that boosts survivability and evasion, supplements defense, and deals damage with accuracy-ignoring skills like Guided Arrow, Awl, and Target Lock.
· It actually achieved the top DPS, showing higher damage than a Swordsman or an accuracy-focused Archer with 250,000 combat power.
