The next class we’d like to introduce to you is a powerful long-range fighting class, the Archer.
Archers are trained from a young age on the techniques of handling a bow and arrow and also how to perfect their concentration and physical fitness, making them deadly adversaries on the battlefield. But it isn’t simply the Archer’s accuracy which makes him stand out from the crowd; his dexterity also allows him to cover long distances effortlessly and bring his bow and arrows to where they’re needed, when they’re needed.
The Archer has but one thing on his mind on the battlefield – his target. The longer he focuses on his target, the greater the damage he inflicts. Since the archer needs a moment to rest after the sheer concentration required for an effective shot, he jumps backwards a short distance after firing to maintain a distance from his opponent. Finally, he puts his adversary out of his misery with a final and fatal volley of arrows.
However, even whole groups of opponents pose little danger to the mighty Archer. Thanks to years of intensive training the archer is able to keep an eye on numerous targets at one time. When the end of the battle draws near, the archer takes one last stand, firing a fatal barrage of arrows at his enemies.
Archers are also very talented in using magical traps. They lure their hapless victims in the direction of their cleverly positioned poisonous traps which slowly but surely suck the life out of their immobilized victims. A Crippling Trap always comes in handy when he is faced with more nimble opponents that need to be dealt with from a distance. Once the foe has stepped on the trap his movement speed is drastically reduced, which, for a long-range fighter like the archer, is a great advantage.
Thanks to his dexterity and deadly precision, the archer represents a great threat to all foes who dare challenge him on the battlefield, even those with the toughest armour or the most impressive magical abilities. The archer’s power is certainly a force to be reckoned with and potential opponents must first think twice before trying their luck.
The archer relies entirely on his arrows which deliver impressive results both at close range as well as over long distances. His light armour provides protection at all times yet allows him to maintain his agility and speed and constantly redress the distance between him and his target – the perfect ingredients for a well-aimed shot.
