On Adding Powders

level 51 noob archer requesting assistance here. So, I have a pile of t3 powders and I've figured out what kind of Archer build I want.

A weapon with a Fast attack speed or faster (I like being a sort of glass canon, but thats just second-best to being a support class. I could've gone mage of course, but srsly who could i even heal? i have nu frens or a guild). I'm focusing on level up my dexterity skill and either fire or air as a powder focus. I have one t4 air powder, and the thing is Im not really sure what to equip it to or when.

I have a t4 air powder; should i throw that on my armor or my weapon? When should i do that, because i might find something better like 5 minutes later in Gavel and then want to remove that other powder? And your personal opinion on which combination is 'better', or at least what each combination would be better at doing: Thunder/Fire and Thunder/Air for Archer. I'm leaning towards Thunder/Air since I don't see an extreme benefit in having Fire as an element because Archer is a ranged class and (if you play it right) you shouldn't take a lot of damage (which is true for any class, maybe with the exception of Fire Warriors). thoughts?

 

AT your level I wouldn't recommend doing anything with powders. Save those things till you have a more endgame build around lvl 95, because once you apply a powder to an item you can not get it back. Also, when it comes to powders, I recommend using only one type of powder since you can get a special move if you have two or more of the same type on a weapon. Lastly, if you manage to get a Stratiformis I'd would focus on and air build for the walk speed and other stats.

 

why even say this, it's really unlikely he will encounter a strati

 

True, I'm just sayin' if he does.

 

If you've got quite a few low level powders you could go thunder + air. Afaik fire archer doesn't work, might have changed but unlikely. But don't bother using t4 powders or higher yet, probably not even t3 at level 50ish.
