I thank you for your input, but build guidance is not what I am asking for. I am familiar with all this. What I am asking is post-build feedback. When you all are done with your archer build 1) What type of archer (ABC, Wraith, etc), 2) how much mana did you end up with 3) are you satisfied with your mana?Your Stam should come first, with Strength not far behind in second. Whatever is remaining should be plugged into Intel and Mana.
I put a heavier weight on Mana regen and what you're doing to get back mana (i.e., Mana Leach on weapon, Spirit Speak to boost Wraith form if it's in your template). If you're having mana issues, you should also consider running Bone/Studded suit to get to the 55 LMC cap. And depending on your template, unless you're struggling, don't be shy about sticking a few leftover skill points into Focus if you have them available.
Also don't forget about the Mana Cost Reduction for Special Moves - which is described in more detail here:

Good luck.
Max Mana doesn't really matter that much for any build (except PvP). In PvM, what matters is how fast you can regain that Mana back, whether through Mana Leech or MR. Faster swing speed increases how quickly you can regain Mana through Mana Leech.I thank you for your input, but build guidance is not what I am asking for. I am familiar with all this.

Your build receives absolutely zero benefit from running meddable Leather over Studded Leather/Bone. Not only do you miss out on +3% LMC Cap per piece of Studded/Bone, but you're also missing out on the Stamina protection.Here is my everything. I used to play ABC archer but was tried of getting para all the time. So I switch bushido with resist and I absolutely love this template. I can go against anything. I destroyed Deceit during the event. I do miss honoring and the critical hit on monsters but my survivability went through the roof. I used balance bow and chug pots and I always keep my buffs up. I hope this helps. let me know if you have any question. I did try the studded suit but I did not like it, no mana regen. and people will say MR is not important just have a mana leech. But I will tell you to you max MR as much as you can.
With that meddable Leather Armor and 12 MR on suit, you regen 1.2633 Mana per second. With non-meddable (like Studded/Bone) and 12 MR on suit, you'd regen 1.0058 Mana per second. It'd take you 5 secs to regen 1 more Mana than non-meddable, where the non-meddable would save you even more Mana than that in a single cast/special. With 40% LMC, an AI costs you 18 Mana, 36 if you chain it. With 55% LMC, an AI costs you 14 Mana, 28 if you chain it. 15% more LMC > meddable 20 Human JoAT Med.What do you need Stam protection for. Just chop a refresh pot and I am back at full Stam. Trust me I ran with studded and no mana reg was horrible. I will run my template as I see fit and you can run your the same. I can cast when I want because my mr
