FA Skill Guide (rolax06)

Hello to all who want to play FA Chart.,this just some guide to you if you can't have your own idea..... If you have, try share it with our friend out they who want to try FA, thanks Q. SRY if u found some spelling is wrong. Pls correct it for me thanks Q.
Some basic skill I'll not discuss much because it will not in use after your get EXPERT Rank. For adding Chart.Stat, just follow ur Chart. requirement, press C and u can know the requirement for ur Chart.

1)Novice

Power Shot
Not advice to add SP

This is the beginning skill,so just use it.

Magic Arrow
Not advice to add SP
Beginning skill too,so just use.

Regeneration

Recover HP,It more useful for high DEF Chart.
For FA it not much useful cause when u have to use pot when hit by monster.

2)Apprentice

Critical Shot
SP=lv 18~20

Sidenote from ren99:
Lv 18 Critical Shot - 1.35 Mag Amp. +98.7 added damage. +95% critical damage. CD = 2.1s. MP = 32
Lv 20 Critical Shot - 1.45 Mag Amp. +103.1 added damage. +105% crit damage. CD = 3.2s. MP = 36
Casting Time = 1.3s. +50% crit chance. Range: 1-8. KB = +50%. Limit: 1 (piercing).
Needs 20 SP to level from Lv18 to Lv20.

Concentrates spirit to give critical damage
All high lvl FA player will agree with this cause it was a main power for FA.
Why i say it useful ???
a) Can see the DMG
b) High DMG rate
c) Hit Passes through and Hit Back the monster.
e) Fast cool down time.
this is very useful & more power skill they give at the beginning level for FA.U also can pump ur SP into it.belive me. u can see the differences,this skill can last u until u reach lvl 70, maybe more.......

Precision

Increase the caster's attack rank..... It not much difference from normal hit and it will take over by Eagle Eye.so if u want just train it with the next skill and change it when u can learn Eagle Eye.

Repulsive Armour
SP=lv18~20

No other skill can take over this skill cause it Increase the caster's defense rank

Magic Blast

Just use it ask helper to u.(if u want)

3)Regular

Explosion Shot
lv18~20

The first skill can make monster falldown.Condensate energy to explode enemy
Fast cool down time,high DMG,when u get this skill u can use it with Critical Shot. Both of this skill very useful,and u can think to unlearn some not useful skill if u want.

Blind

Decrees enemy hit rate.

Eagle Eye
SP=lv18~20

This is the only skill can take over Precision skill.
Increase own Attack level and effective range.

4)Expert

Poison Arrow
SP=lv20

More useful to High Def Mobs,when u train it to lv20 it will giv around 67dmg/sec,maintenance 10sec.

Lower Defense
SP=lv18~20

it up to u want to learn or not,cause it almost same ask decrees enemy hit rate,only helpful when u killing boss type mobs.

5)A.Expert

Shadow Shot
SP=lv18~20

Summon an arrow from the shadow of an enemy
The only skill can use all FA life.
High Dmg,Can make monster falldown ask Explosion Shot,fast cool down time,Faster shot make and the only thing is use alot MP. My suggestion is try change some useful skill to this skill.(it up to u)

Mana Condense
SP=lv18~20

Increase one's magic attack strength,MUST LEARN

Vital Force
SP=lv18~20

Extra up ur HP,MUST LEARN too

Until here,make sure u have learn 4 importance helping skill.
a)Eagle Eye>Add up hit rate + attack distance
b)Repulsive Armour>Add up ur avoids rate.
c)Mana Condense>Add up ur magic power
d)Vital Force>Extra up ur HP.
For FA,this 4 skill can say is there life helper,for a,b and can help ur party team. (useful in solo or team)

6)Master

Great Heal
SP=lv18~20

the healing skill(recover ur Hp)Restores a great amount of HP.
When u train it until Lv3 it recover ur HP more faster than using HP pot.

Vital Bless
SP=lv7( tough of SP and not reaching chart lv requirement[depend on game chart higher ranking] )

Greatly increase the HP restoration rate for a short duration
Maybe i can say it's revolution of Regeneration.
(up to u want to learn or not.)can skip it.

Drill Shot
SP=lv18~28

This is the first skill can give over 300 high DMG.
the bad thing is take longer time to having shot.It also make enemy blur for moment and it very useful all the life of FA.

8)A.Master

The only skill at this rank.
Prisimic Arrow
SP=lv15 (tough of SP and not reaching chart requirement[depend on game chart higher ranking])

powerful hit. Must learn too

9)G.Master

Gravity Distortion
SP=lv1 ( depend on game chart higher ranking )

Destructive arrow that distorts time and space
Can hit back enemy,the only thing is long cool down time.

Why i just write adding SP lv18 ~ lv20 ??? It because u will tough of SP, if u feel enough of SP u can max it on lv20 or just stop at lv18. This is my Exp on CABAL TW.
For me, i feel it great and very useful. hope can give some idea to those who want to play FA,if u feel it not much helpful just take it ask ur guide line,u can read other player suggestion to have up more helpful guide for u. lastly i hope forgive me if they have any wrong typing word

Now i will tell you how to use your skills.
Obviously with all the buff skills you buff yourself and others Now with attacking skills, this is which skills you should use
and where.

For PVP:
Obviously you start combo straight away and use these skills to attack:
Shadow Shot first (knockdown at start=good chance to win)
Critical Shot second (does allot of damage over a short period of time)
Gravity Distortion third (adds good damage with chance to stun)
Posion Arrow last (again, adds good damage and gives poison damage over time)
After you used these 4 skills repeat all of them again.

Now for PVE:
Gravity Distortion first (stuns for long time)
Poison Arrow second (good damage and gives poison damage over time)
Drilled Shot third (good damage)
Prismatic Arrow fourth (good damage again)
Use these 4 skills on monsters and if you combo vs a melee mob it will be very hard for him to reach you ^^
(You can also use the PVP combo in PVE, for example if you're killing a boss.)

Upgrade Skills:
When you reach Transcender you will have 6 upgrade slots. These are the upgrades you should buy and max:
Vitality Mastery (a must have for any char - adds alot of HP)
Force Control (another very good upgrade - adds alot of magic=more dmg)
Force Rolling (same as above but better ^^)
Damage Absorb (good upgrade skill - adds alot of defense)
Sixth Sense (a usefull skill in PVE - adds alot of def rate)

final skill you should pick either:
Reflex (if you like PVE more than PVP)

And finally I will tell you which equipment to use:
I cannot tell you exactly which items to use as these will change as you get higher lvl.
If you like PVP, try to get as much crit rate % and crit dmg % as possible.
And if you like PVE more, you can get more magic (although crit rate and dmg is good also)
So this is the end of my Force Archer guide . If you do not like something about this guide or think that I am wrong please
do not follow it^^. This is how my Force Archer is build and I think that he is strong in PVP . Force Archers are a fun class
to play if you know how, and I hope this guide helped you.
