Hi,
I just want to show you my own temp that im running lately since last patches. Ive been running this temp for many years and i can say its finally worth with late changes.
(Before that i was running ultimate archer,chiv,tact,lore,tame,vet,disco,music - putting on +30 music/disco to disco bosses)
Now my skills looks like this:
95 arch (+25 huntress and quiver -thinking about to add +vet jewells and go 120 arch with hld glasses)
60 tact
120 chiv (dmi, ssi, hci)
120 sw
120 tame
120 lore
85 vet
Im running 3/6 or 4/6 with fc bow (2/6 jewells + town bonus + bow) so healing yourself is fast and worth with max karma (super fast 40 hp heals and cure/remove curse) the only downside is that my long range heal is only gift of renewal so tanky bushido hiryu or cu sidhe works the best.
One of the most important parts with this temp is going human because of passive 20 necro/ss so i can cast wrait form with +necro items (after removing necro items human still stay in wrait form and elves not) and just drain all mana from bosses and having a lot of mana for almost a nonstop ai chain.
Mostly using this temp with Disco Cu Sidhe on bosses and its super worth!!
For example Lady Melisande (last week ive soloed grizzle but his aura is just lame vs fighters....) is soloable quite easily. Just cast gift of renewal on pet and use Hit Fatigue composite bow (can have hit mana drain also for faster mana drop) so you drop meli on 0 stam and mana (thanks to wrait form 11% mana drain) about when she is 1/2 or 2/3 hp. After her stam/mana is 0 she cant damage cu sidhe enough to get him low and even with her huge mana pool she will not cast big spells.
Your ai with slayer bow and EOO will hit for +- 160 (not that big but cu sidhe is doing a lot also and with his disco he will hit a lot and even bit harder)
At spawns im fighting with fire beetle that is using goo and im running wrait form with sdi jewells and just spamming thunderstorm for first levels. (Wrait form keeps your mana pool up)
Im still waiting for some op legendary artifact jewells and armors so i can boost dmg with more tactics and anatomy but i know almost noone in Europa so its hard to farm them for me. (Playing solo 95% of the time :/ )
Hope this can give you some new view on archer tamer templates.
Feel free to ask me for any additional info or catch me on Europa on character Seraphim (or dragoon Ansatsusha)
Keep up the good work guys i love wierd templates
