Idea for Archer Legend (Animated GIF Heavy, you have been warned!)

[Miek]

lol oh god i put sew muchh thought into this! hopefully somebody will at least wanna look at the skills i made LOL



im not creative enough to think of a story lmao

Class Introduction: ARCHER LEGEND

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v499/eternalkhmer233/Title.jpg

Weapon : Heavy Bow

basically they are kind of a mixture between warrior and archers. Their bows are big enough to be used as weapon itself(like a sword)

-You use any skill while in mid-air
-All DoT Skills stack

Pros and Con:
Pros:
-Great Mobbing
-Warrior and Bowman like skills
-Range is longer then the other bowmen for archery skills
-Double Jump (Vertical by using a skill you will see later on hehe)
-Higher HP
-Heavy damage


Cons:
-Slow Skills
-Slow Speed
-Not meant to be heavy DPS
-Damage is sometimes dependent on DoT

I've added orange boxes to the animations to act as damage lol.. i thought it would amplify it hehe

hope you enjoyedddddddddd itttt LOL

[JoeTang]

Nice animations, but I don't see anything that would explicitly lend itself to the bow design other than Piercer and Flare Shot. It'd be like giving Dawn Warriors a Bow and calling them Dawn Archers.

[DarkGenzo]

Those are probably the coolest little animations ever.

I love the whole Rising Slash/Heat to Impact thing - that's pretty cool, but I do have to agree with JoeTang - those skills do not seem to emphasize the fact that it's a bowman. It seems more like a warrior with a few long range attacks. I am still very curious to see what fourth job skills you could come up with - and especially the animations.

[shouri]

Do an animation/skill where you shoot arrows in an arc. Would be a nice follow up to the push back skill. The arrows would land on the pushed monsters. If in the air, the arrows would shoot diagonally down (if you had dragged any mob up, it would smash them diagonally into the ground for extra damage on impact)

Keep going~

[Index]

Fourth job: Break the Bow into two pieces and use them for swift attacks and flying.

[shouri]

inb4 someone actually says that we're just looking for ideas from PIT.

oh wait...

Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo oooooooooooooooooooooooooh.

I really like your skill ideas. Maybe a little too reliant on whacking things, but it's an interesting idea. :3

[Fatalzxc]

archer that doesn't use arrows LOL.
i think you got these ideas from LoL?

[McAwesomesauce]

I could see this being a Brawler-legend, but not an Archer.

[TheThunderBandit]

Switch that bow for a dagger/claw and you got yourself a deal.

[Delicae]

Whyyyyy are your animations so hawt!

This is awesome.

[Miek]

Thank you! that's really nice of you to say!! <3!! :D

I just thought it would be boring if i just stuck with arrow skills for the main attacks in the beginning. So when you progress later in the job you gain access to the skills you are actually more inclined to use hehe.

[Thugnificent]

Beastly Animations! I think I'd play this class but I have to agree with everyone else, it needs something that requires that bow more often like say; shooting an arrow at a spot then being able to tele to it anytime or having some kind of combo system with the arrows involving a set pattern of skills to maim monsters. :D
P.s. I would love to see you make other classes just for the animations. =P

[Berzerk]

I really like this class. It's a shame that we won't be able to play it. :f4:

Oohh Maybe I should! I'll have to think of more ideas haha, I only like doing it for the animation! lol

[Baklava]

This totally reminds me of...

THE FIGHT IS ON.

...with your bow/sword fusion thing and the high jumpy + phoenix stuff.

[Puppeteer]

Animations are amazing! Haha
I would love to play this class! :P

[Manu]

I love the animations and many of the skills, this would look very nice for a knuckle legend actually.
There should be a pirate legend that is like dual blades, adds an extra weapon, a shoe blade or spikes or something and fights with fists and kicks, just like we do SS kick already.

[DakkuMauji]

Wow, awesome animations. Gotta say looks like a pretty good class even with the lack of mobility.
