Weak defense and direct attacks are compensated for by strong bow attacks and good Maneuverability. Shooting arrows in the air allows you to stay airborne for some time, out of harm's way.

Archer is the unique Job that involves crafting Arrows to do long range attacks by using Arrows as you can see in the top right corner.

Important Attributes: DEX and LUK

Arrows

Archers have a stock of arrows, shown near the top-right corner of the screen next to a grey/brown arrow symbol.

  • All Archers use the same stock.
  • The stock starts at 10 if there is an Archer in the party.
  • For a solo Archer, the stock maxes out at 50.
  • For two Archers, the stock maxes out at 99.
  • An ally Merchant with Enlarge Weight Limit increases the max stock by up to 10 per level. The max stock can't be higher than 99.

The only way to restock Arrows is to use Reload (D/Special button). Without any points in Arrow Crafting, each cast adds 2 Arrows to the stock. Every point in Reload increases the Arrow gain by 1, up to 12 at level 10.

Arrows are used for normal and special Moves that use the B (Strong) button. However, Skills do not use up Arrows. Each Arrow attack uses one Arrow.

  • If there are no Arrows left, a normal B or ↓+B will come out instead, and a red message will show up above the Archer's head (once, until the stock is replenished again).
