Tell me one thing, just one, when you fix Righteous Smite and this skill will always hit mobs?

Because Righteous Smite don't use "aim to mob" as others skills; many, extreme many time Righteous Smite don't hit mobs because they are at a different height than the player. Do something about it!!! In BDO we don't have 100% flat surface. Small hill or a small hole? Righteous Smite hit nothing.

All these changes are still not enough because you are forgetting about the most important: Archer is a range type class but most of his skills are either melee or very short range.

This class should be a combination of a wizzard and a ranger especially since Archer has the least health of all classes and no class damage resistance.

Your spam doesn't contribute anything here. I asked a simple question: when? Answer: not now, is not the answer.

Archer is currently unplayable class precisely because ... it does not hit mobs. So how to play?

This is a critical bug that should be fixed today. Not in a week or a month or never.

How to use mobile ability and all skills (especially main skills) if you can't move because if you do one or two steps you can be on hill or in hole and do 0 dmg and mobs they're killing you.

Archer's crit rate passive is more or less entirely useless as lots of archer skills have 100% critical rate or close to, and Ensare providing a +30% crit rate buff. Could the devs perhaps look at reworking the passive to something else? A couple ideas could be critical damage, attack speed, or accuracy. 

I will start off by saying that I have tested the changes on the global labs, and a lot of issues have been addressed, however, there are still some problems with the class that are hard to ignore.

General

Grace of Sylvia: It is hard to complain about additional AP, but the critical hit rate portion of this passive is nearly useless for Archer because most of the damage dealing skills already have a +50/75/100% crit modifier. In addition, Ensnare III gives 30% critical hit rate for 10 seconds with a 6 second cooldown. Watcher (Q buff) also gives 100% critical hit rate for 30 seconds, and don't forget we can still get additional crit with 5/5 from food buffs, crystals, etc. It would be nice if this gave critical hit damage or accuracy.

Accuracy: Oddly enough, we are a bow-using class that has issues with precision. Our best 'accuracy' is the -9% evasion debuff on Spear of Sylvia, which is pretty risky to use in pvp (for damage) since it requires melee range and it is a stationary skill. Lights mark is going to be more accessible now, but it is only -6%. We don't have an actual accuracy buff like many other classes do, which limits our gearing options and makes it frustrating to fight enemies with high evasion.

Recoil: Bows do not have recoil. I understand that at first it might seem like the class is more powerful because of the pushback, but after a short time it is annoying being unwillingly repositioned, and we haven't even done much damage after all that showcasing. Corsair, on the other hand, can fire an actual gun with Crow's Mark while using just one hand, and there is very little recoil at all. All of Corsair's ranged patraca skills show recoil, but don't really reposition her like ours do. Please reduce/remove it from our skills - That would be the biggest QoL change you can do without worrying about balance. 

PvP

1v1: It is a waste of time to fight someone who uses Q block as an archer. It is also tough to fight classes with high mobility since we are squishy and seemingly based on not being hit. Archer has stamina efficient and protected mobility, but it rarely makes a difference against someone with a grab because of how slow it is. It takes multiple combos to kill an evasion class. That leaves very few classes that we aren't fighting an uphill battle against. If the disengage skills were faster, it would help is in small-scale/1v1. I won't go over that much because it is being looked at already and I don't believe this game is built on 1v1 scenarios. 

Large-scale: Since the class has such a long range, it can be difficult to balance in large-scale PvP. A lot of archers ask for split damage to be reduced. I do not necessarily think it should be; however, I do think we should have better group utility so that we are wanted. If archers had an ignore knockdown resistance buff/debuff that would help a lot. Almost every skill we have has a down attack modifier, but everyone uses knockdown resistance crystals by default, so our damage can feel low at times. If that is too much, then better damage against structures or really any group utility would suffice. You shouldn't have to choose between what is fun and what is strong, but right now Archer is mostly just fun.

PvE

PvE: Archer faces problems with single target damage, and grinding spots being immune to knockdown. The funny thing about PvE is that it doesn't really matter if you can loot 5000 trash or 30000 trash. We just hope for what any class can hope for - to not be too far from the top once all of the class reboots are done. Even if you are 5% or 10% less than others, that adds up to a lot of time, and a lot of silver, when you have grinded for hundreds or thousands of hours.

Additional Animation Speed Increases
Reason: The flow of the kit is amazing, but the speed on some skills is frustrating sometimes. Speeding up skill animations on other skills beyond Mountain Breeze and Radiant Explosion would be a nice qol update to modernize the kit, especially with the removal of the attack speed buff.

Skills to speed up:
Raghon Spirit: for raghon spirit-piercing cry cancel
Meteor Dive
Wrath of Nature
Arrow Explosion
Ensnare: Maybe this would help with the need to cancel it for self-buffing
Radiant Explosion: Was already sped up but maybe just a little more would be nice
Spear of Sylvia: fast casting + all the dmg output in one burst + larger aoe would be nice touches to this skill
Zephyr Leap: assuming point of origin movement doesn't get fixed, speeding up zephyr would be SO nice, especially given how slow the awakening version feels. Double the leap distance as well.
Righteous Smite: Having been given Super Armor, maybe just a slight increase.
Flow: Lights Trail
Tactical Strike: the skill actually feels ok right now, but just a slight increase in roll speed would be nice.

Why is it still impossible to choose the angle of inclination yourself Luthraghon's Call and Full Bloom? Especially after Full Bloom was made a range skill. We just can't deal dmg if the target is just a little higher or lower than us. This is stupid. There is no adequate reason why this should be so.

Please don't change Archer! I love Archer! Maybe if his evade stat were a bit higher (because he's so squishy) but his range and damage is great and fine, in my opinion. :D

 Giving us control of the angle of Full Bloom would be cool, though! :D

Or if we could also adjust the spread (less wide cone, perhaps?!... maybe three steps... small, medium, and wide (what it is now)?)? <--- perhaps with steps of the scroll wheel?

Fixing the angle of Radiant Explosion would also be nice --- if you are on a hill, whether it goes up or down, the skill usually misses the target group of mobs (PvE). Our Archer is literally tossing grenades in the air before shooting them, he should be able to arc them well, as a ranged class. (Radiant Explosion and the other Explosion skill are my two favourites, both SHIFT + something (one crossbow, one greatbow).)

Thank you for addressing the angle-of-attack issues. <3

Firstly let's keep suggestions concise, a little background is good but walls of text won't help the devs or us

Secondly it's amazing how modest the Archer scene is with our requests and compared to other classes who are asking for everything just looking at ninjas for example, they literally want SA FG and shortened CD on everything

Archers rework is looking great but depends on how the other reworks are, warrior striker are already strong and will be even stronger

Got a feeling BDO's engine is not particularly good with projectiles hence Full Bloom etc not targeting different heights.

If this is the case we should be compensated.

Spear of Sylvia could have shortened CD higher damage larger range at least in pve

Righteous Smite in pve at point blank range seems to do very little damage I have to aim to the background to get damge on the foreground

Make it so we have a chance against Q block classes shields etc.

To do so Luthraghorn’s Call needs much more damage

Radiant Explosion needs full range can drop the core Bound if necessary this could be considered a proper rework and would be fun

Ensnare could be a trap Archers with traps makes a lot of sense, ranger in GW2 has traps, it's fun and works or at least speeded up should be instant

Spear of Sylivia needs to be speeded up drastically, I never even land the Spear 99% of the time, and again bad super armour, at least let us land the damage before we die

Ravenous Talon: to be useful needs a forward guard, maybe remove stun and/or increase cool down. This would be a rework!

Earth Shatter DOT needs to be for a much longer duration, 18 seconds so 6 x 65 = 390 hp, basically one and half hp pots, pointless should be 30 seconds at least, every second counts in battle why would I waste it applying this skill?

I won't repeat other suggestions here which are good

Sorry about font and may add to this

Keep the faith
