Archer Guide
AP points
Ahhh,AP points.These are important if you want to become the strongest of all archers.
Take my former magician for example - can you believe she had only 55 int at lvl 22? It's UNBELIEVABLE.
You have to know how to distribute your AP suitably among STR and DEX - they are needed for equipment and clothes. Don't start to panic when you realise all of your APs are set wrongly. It'll be difficult to salvage the situation then, but you can.
For future hunters,put 4 DEX and 1 STR for each lvl up.
For future crossbow men, don't put in any DEX from lvl 25-30.
NOTE: Crossbow is meant to be stronger than bow,so make good use of that DEX. Also,crossbow men only need the same amount of DEX as their current level to wear CB equips.
Training Areas
Lvl 10-15:Remain in Henesys. Train on snails and slimes. A change of bow is not needed yet, as buying the basic bow costs 3000 mesos, and attacks are no different than the basic beginner's bow.
Lvl 15-20:Try orange mushrooms, or if you are impaitient, green ones. You will still need the help of a party at this stage, so search for willing maplers in Channel 1.
Lvl 20-25:Stick to green mushrooms...
Lvl 25-27:Start doing the Kerning Party Quest(KPQ), or train on wooden and rocky masks in Perion. Wooden masks give 35 exp while rocky masks give 42.
Lvl 27-30:These are the most torturous lvls to 2nd job; just hang in there! Hunt for earrings and scrolls in PQs, or train at Ant Tunnel I. Stock up plenty of hp and mp pots, there WILL be cases of potburn.
