Fractured Online Archer Character Creator
Race
However you are bound by karma on those 2 characters, whereas the human has the freedom to be good, evil or neutral. We’ll be showing human for this build as its the most popular and is allowed to pvp freely in Fractured Online, but this build works on all races.
As an archer you want DEX and PER, so the best races are the following:
Chadra Wildfolk:
Dex bonus + 4
Per bonus +2
Humans:
Dex bonus +2
Per bonus +2
To understand more how the stat bonuses work, the Fractured Online wiki has a handy table.
Also be aware that although wildfolk are the best, you are bound by karma on that race so cannot be evil or pvp good characters, whereas the human has the freedom to be good, evil or neutral.
Archer Stats and Attributes
For a Fractured Online Archer Build, you want to pick the right stats to have speed, accuracy and damage. Because you are incredibly squishy in close range. Therefore you should maximise your PER, DEX and CON. Below is the build we would suggest as the best Fractured Online Archer Build. You can also create a magical version of this, being a more “arcane archer” that uses magical arrows, which we’ll cover in a separate build over on our Fractured Online Build Page.
Once you start leveling you can use your talent points to get 2 additional perception and Dexterity, getting them both to 20. For more information on how each attribute works, check out this Fractured Online Stats Basics Guide.
Background
As an archer, you only have one real option for your background, the bowman. If you’re considering playing an archer and rogue build, you can go street rat too, to have some initial fighting skills. However, for a good rounded set of archery skills, bowman will always be the best and only real option.
Fractured Online Archer Guide
Archers in in Fractured Online need some love. As they fall behind mages in terms of damage or mobility, however in a team fight its great to have an archer for its stuns and CC ability. Here are some tips to get started on your Fractured Online Archer:
Wear Better Gear – As an archer, you don’t have the defensive skills of a melee, or the magic shield of a mage, so you shouldn’t be running around in commoner clothes, get hide/leather armour at a minimum to start.
Hunt For The Magic Arrow Spells – You can respec your skills easy in Fractured Online, and the magic spells such as fire arrows, ice arrows are incredibly powerful. Its worth hunting down these spells if you want to transfer to a magic archer in the future.
Learn your poisition in a team – You’re not the front line, or the healer, you’re somewhere in the middle. You should be chasing and finishing enemies due to your high dex, and stunning and slowing enemies so your melee’s can reach them. Played well you can help secure lots of kills for your team.
