From the begining

:help:

Okies, I would love to see any Bardic Archer's. Is it something someone could do from lvl 0- post capped? Or is it one of those things that you train one way till ??? level and fix skill it? If you can bring a young bard up this way 1) What race would be better 2) Although you can not cast up a bow with sonic weapon...what would the suggested bow to use. 3)what would you call the core skills?


okies if there is no true archer bards (from low level up to higher end) what would the core training for a sword/board or a good training plan for a pole user?


thanks

Be a strong race

use a long bow

watch your DS

aim for the eye around 30

if you can use a longbow in 3 seconds aimed then at 35 you'll have 1 RT with Tonis and sufficient air ranks.

I'd suggest Half-Krol or Giant.

[cobadbear]

so what would be the core training for an archery bard?

[Danical]

2x ranged, perception.

Don't worry about ambush until you're post cap.

Fill in the rest.

Archer bards are sick. Seeing Jemiquist go nuts in OTF was just wow.

You fire a polished glowbark bolt at a greater construct!
AS: +573 vs DS: +128 with AvD: +22 + d100 roll: +61 = +528
... and hit for 104 points of damage!
Shot knocks the greater construct's head back by pushing on the inside of the skull!
Cracks begin to snake across the greater construct's skin as its movement completely ceases.
The bolt breaks into tiny fragments.
Roundtime: 4 sec.
Roundtime changed to 1 second.

I'm pleased with the results.
