Hunters used to fill up parties during the early WoE days. From time to time I would get ganged up by 5 or more hunters, locked down by their insane attack speed. Double strafe was a killer skill that players hated back then because it dealt a lot of damage from a distance. Then the trapper build came about, stacking traps and pushing them to unsuspecting players/monsters; using their falcon from time to time to deal additional damage. Hunters/Snipers are a rare sight these days. Those who still play this class are the ones who are either really good with this job or just really love them.
The stats (Job 70 Sniper, Naked character):
STR: 22+4
AGI: 46+17
VIT: 47+3
INT: 31+5
DEX: 99+38
LUK: 52+8
Compulsory Items:
Sharp Arrow/Incisive Arrow
This build specializes on the use of the sharp shooting skill. 60 LUK greatly increases the chance to bypass defense especially with sharp arrow equipped (50% avg. with sharp arrow, 35-40% chance without). Just use elemental scrolls or have a scholar tag along to compensate for the lack of an elemental arrow.
Significance in WoE
A well placed SS sniper can cripple any offensive force coming from the portal/emergency call. Useful when in tandem with status-grimtooth. Can be quite difficult as an offensive character, unless you are good in sneaking towards the wizard line; 1-2 shots on the wizard line can be lethal sometimes with fire endow. Take note that you deal less damage on targets beyond 12 cells.
Significance in PvP
Unless you have a party of bored guys willing to fall in line for you, stay out. You will most likely be killed by a cloaked SinX since you lack flee with this build.
Significance in your adventures
Magma dungeon can be quite a treat with this build. A vadon carded weapon paired with crystal/sharp arrows can make this dungeon fun to level on, especially on those narrow bridges. Just have a tanker with you for mobbing. Turtle island is also a good spot for this build, although the different elements of each turtle can be annoying. When wandering around the new dungeons, just remember that you don’t have that much flee with this, so always have someone with you.

Elissa, paki re-size naman yung pic para hindi sumabog yung format. :heh:
Anyway, matagal na ako nag-hahanap ng build for a sniper. Pero each time I ask people for their reco’s lahat ng sinasabi nila sakin eh – bulok ang sniper, mag LK, SinX, or biochemist ka na lang. :@@:

uu, lalo na kung may owl baron at owl duke clips
actually, nawawala na ang archer class ngayun, kokonti na lang pati bard/minstrels, puro kasi sinx eh

mahirap po yung ganyang build kasi need mo lagi ng kasama lalo na yung sages/prof
Jetlogs on May 2, 2007
I think the problem with snipers is that ever since traps affected both friend and foe, snipers lost their team dynamics. Fortunately, they still have their saving grace: arrow shower and wind walk. Unfortunately, a clown/gypsy can also do the some of these functions

Sir Wauks, Out of Topic Question ko pero importante din poh.. Gm me ng isang guild sa Chaos ngaun… well wla nmn me prob pag connect sa RO b4 Then Since nag Down ang Chaos ng 2 or 3 days yta.. bigla nlng ako LAG During Siege and pag madami Tao.. Nsa U.S.A poh ako ngaun ito spec ng Pc ko 128Mb Video 1Gig Memory.. Net Upload Speed 450Kbps++ Download Speed is: 8Mb Sir anu poh b Prob? nid ko p chnge ng ISP?
Lei on May 2, 2007
That build looks familiar – I wonder why . . . :heh:
(Of course, I built my sniper for PvM, so 1 vit, 1 str, and higher int, but same idea.)
One thing I can say about that build – You’ll probably be stuck in stings – seeing that parties are non-existent in pRO . . . or I haven’t found any.
But yeah, SS was fun back in the day – Scholar + Sniper + HP in TI3 was really good.
Wauks on May 2, 2007
@Jetlogs
I’m with you there man. Dati sa old school siege, hunters were crucial in defense because the traps only applied to opponents.
tundy on May 2, 2007
why not i request sa gravity yung about sa traps .. ako rin di ko na magamit sniper ko e namumura ko ng mga guild mate ko dahil tinapakan nila yung traps ko O.O :^^:
Aerionn Brightmoon on May 2, 2007
hunter types with STR. darn it, i haven’t been playing this class in a while!
Fred-ster on May 2, 2007
long ago before juno pa, hunters were so powerful pag woe. i don’t know why pero i think wala atang nerf damage nila dati (and im not sure kung meron nga bang nerf ung damage nila ngaun). that pushed me to make a hunter but eventually dinelete ko rin sa main account ko and made one instead sa aking CHXI account /gg.
pero ngaun kumonte ang hunters/snipers and i only see DS and trapper snipers. rarely do i see sharpshooters and falcon assaulters… kasi nga naman DS walang delay :heh:
hanggang ngaun 95 parin hunter ko. tagal nang 95 un d ko na napalvl kasi nahihirapan na ako kahit sa mga geographers. cguro pag nagka x3 or x5 ganahan ako. :gg:
nice build by the way elissa. sabi sau marami positive reaction pag ndi insane build feature mo eh. :heh:

grounder on May 3, 2007
@UT
wala nga kasing delat DS. kung walang delay ibang skills dami rin cguro snipers ngayon.
gumawa rin ako ng hunter dati, kaso I ended up deleting it and making a bard as a replacement. mas useful kasi ang bard ngayun sa WoE. Rokis ka lang sa portal with a devo paladin. or bragi’s poem sa wiz line. ngayun kasi ang killers ay mga sinx. lalo na kapag nachepuhan mong naka-EDP siya
mg: dami rin akong guildmates na nagpalit na ng jobs.
endangered na ang lahi ng hunters…
@elissa
nice build by the way :no1:
jologz07 on May 3, 2007
:@@: freakin’ sweet…
mahalaga talaga mga hunters sa pvp especialy in WoE
n00bâ„¢ on May 4, 2007
alisin yung nerf sa WoE sa sniper class.
either full damage or yung traps ay pang kalaban lang.
Wauks on May 4, 2007
Hehehe astig siguro pag yung traps for opponents only ulit. Matanong nga Gravity is possible ma-implement ulit yung feature na yun. :gg:
earl on January 17, 2010
sa tingin ko maganda talaga blitzer na sniper kc kaya nilang i heart stop ung mga fastest chmapion, and sniper also is realy meant for blitzing. ung sniper build ko sa valkyrie server ay 99 agi 70dex and 70 lukl.. promiz lakas itong build na to! d cla titigilan ng falcon cguro ang character na nasa 10k pabbaba ang hp ay secs. lang
maganda rin pa may +4FAW headgear ska kumpleto gamit
