Archer/Hunter Help What Stats To Focus On?

I just started the game as an Archer and I have been putting points into Dexterity and Agility. What are some good types of bows and armors that I should get going forward?

 

just use the best gear you find, if you're a low level. for skill points, assign enough so you can wear all your armour, and put the rest into intelligence, or agility and defence if you want to be more tanky. it's usually not a good idea to put in more skill points into strength and dexterity than you need to use gear, since they don't increase damage by that much

 

Does this apply to any class? Should I also use water powders on weapons if I'm stacking int?

 

yes, this applies to every class (until you're endgame and get an actual build) in my experience, it's not usually a good idea to powder your weapons until you get a build, since you'll outlevel them quite quickly, but if you do powder them, it's usually better to just go with the powder that matches your highest elemental damage% stat.

 

usually you start powdering your weapons when you get around lvl30+
