Hunter skill build

1. Lv. 10-17: max Arrow Blow or Double ShotBudget maxes Arrow Blow: one arrow and the fewest MP a cast. Pro takes Arrow Blow 1 and maxes Double Shot: the same 240% on one monster, split between two when two are in range.
2. Lv. 17-22: max Critical ShotMore critical hits on every arrow for the rest of the game, and Amazon's Judgement only works on critical hits.
3. Lv. 22-30: The Eye of Amazon 3, then max FocusFrom level 30 most monsters dodge some arrows from a pure-DEX Bowman, and Focus fixes that. Your Bowman SP locks at 2nd job, so spend all of it before you advance.
4. Lv. 30-37: max Bow Mastery, Bow Booster 1 at 32Mastery raises your lowest hit: about 50% more damage on average once it is maxed. One point of Bow Booster already gives its full attack speed.
5. Lv. 37-47: Final Attack: Bow 1, then max Arrow BombYour attack for crowds: up to 6 monsters a cast, with a chance to stun each one.
6. Lv. 48-70: the builds splitBudget: Soul Arrow: Bow, so you stop buying arrows, then Amazon's Judgement, the rest of Bow Booster, and Final Attack: Bow last. Pro: Final Attack: Bow, Soul Arrow: Bow, the rest of Bow Booster, and Amazon's Judgement 1.

You get 1 SP per level as a Beginner, 1 SP at each job advancement, and 3 SP per level after that. Hunter SP can't be spent on Bowman skills, and an SP Reset Scroll from the Cash Shop resets every skill except Beginner skills.

Skill points cost nothing, so both builds follow the same route with one swap per job. What sets them apart is where your mesos go: arrows, gear, scrolls and potions. Prices are what each item sells for on HubCW, so they move with the market.

Gear, slot by slot

Where two items share a step they are the same item for men and women: buy the cheaper. Arrows have no level, so theirs is the level the build moves up to them. Bowmen get no tops or bottoms past level 40, so from 50 an overall takes both slots. Any earrings do for Pro: they all have 5 slots, and the DEX scrolls are what count.

Arrows

An arrow adds its attack to your bow's on every shot. Carpenters craft every kind, so the last column is what one arrow costs in materials at market prices; it stands in where nobody sells them.

Arrows	W.ATT	Per set	Price	Crafted
Arrows for Bows	0	1000	1 mesos	0.8 Carpenter Lv. 1
Bronze Arrows for Bows	+1	800	3 mesos?	2.6 Carpenter Lv. 4
Iron Arrows for Bows	+2	800	-	4.8 Carpenter Lv. 7
Adamantium Arrows for Bows	+3	800	-	4.9 Carpenter Lv. 10

What Soul Arrow: Bow saves

Soul Arrow: Bow maxed costs 5 MP every 300 seconds: one Blue Potion keeps it up for about 3.3 hours. Without it, every 1,000 casts use the arrows below.

Skill	Arrows a cast	Budget	Pro
Arrow Blow	1	1,000 mesos	4,876 mesos
Double Shot	2	2,000 mesos	9,752 mesos
Arrow Bomb	1	1,000 mesos	4,876 mesos
Final Attack: Bow	3	3,000 mesos	14,628 mesos

Mesos per 1,000 casts, with Arrows for Bows for Budget and Adamantium Arrows for Bows for Pro. Final Attack: Bow's row counts each time it fires. Soul Arrow: Bow only works with a bow: a Crossbowman has his own.

Pro scrolls

One tier in each family gives the most per slot on average without any risk to the item. Pro fills every slot with it, or buys gear where every slot already passed.

Scroll	Success	Slots	If all pass	Price	Per success
Bow Attack Scroll: Intermediate	60%	7	+14 W.ATT	59,443 mesos	99,072 mesos
Gloves Attack Scroll: Intermediate	60%	5	+10 W.ATT	688,888 mesos?	1,148,147 mesos
Overall Armor DEX Scroll: Intermediate	60%	10	+20 DEX	-	-
Cape DEX Scroll: Intermediate	60%	5	+10 DEX	-	-
Earring DEX Scroll: Intermediate	60%	5	+10 DEX	98,898 mesos	164,830 mesos

The other tiers, on a bow: Bow Attack Scroll: Lesser is 100% for +1, Bow Attack Scroll: Greater 10% for +4, and Bow Attack Scroll: Chaos 10% for +5, but 50% of its failures destroy the bow. Try them in the scroll simulator first.

What the money buys

Each build's average damage per cast on one monster, in its own gear and with its own skills at that level: Arrow Blow for Budget, Double Shot for Pro (both arrows on the one monster). Pure DEX, with only the STR that gear needs. Pro counts every scroll slot as passed and Warrior Potion running. Monster defense is left out, so treat the numbers as a comparison.

Pick your level to see where each skill should be, what to add at that level and any breakpoint you just reached. Switch builds to compare the alternatives.

You advance in Henesys at level 10. From then to 30 you get 61 SP for six skills that would take 105 to max, and whatever you leave here at 30 stays that way. Nothing in these two plans needs a bow, so they suit a Crossbowman too.

At 2nd job you get 1 SP, then 3 per level: 121 by level 70. Maxing all six Hunter skills would take 140, so 19 points stay short: Budget leaves them in Final Attack: Bow, Pro in Amazon's Judgement. The current client has no 3rd job yet.

Slows the monsters you crit. Budget maxes it so fewer monsters reach you; Pro keeps one point.

An arrow's damage is your total weapon attack, the bow's and the arrow's added together, times a stat term: DEX times the weapon's multiplier, plus STR, plus Attack Power from potions. Each hit rolls between a minimum and a maximum, and mastery raises the minimum. The comparisons below use the community's damage formula with a level 50 Pro Hunter's stats; treat them as relative.

What Bow Booster is worth

Other multipliers

• Criticals: everyone starts at a 5% chance of +20%. Critical Shot and Bow Mastery maxed make it 35% for +35%, about 11% more damage on average.
• Power Knockback: a swing of the bow, not an arrow. The community formula gives a close-range hit a much smaller stat term, so even though it always crits it does about 23% of Arrow Blow's damage to each monster. Use it to push monsters away, not to kill them.
• Weapon DEF: damage × 100 ÷ (DEF + 100). Most training monsters have 0-50 DEF; Iron Hogs have 500, a sixth of your damage.
• Level gap: monsters above your level take less, ×0.89 at 5 levels above you and ×0.71 at 9.

Arrow Bomb's blast hits up to 6 monsters for 130% each; Arrow Blow hits one for 240%. Per cast Arrow Bomb does more from 2 monsters in range, but it costs 28 MP to Arrow Blow's 14, so per MP it only pulls ahead from 4. Double Shot never does more in all than Arrow Blow: it only splits the same 240% between two.

Arrow Bomb by level

TipEach level of Arrow Bomb adds damage and stun chance, but its MP cost doubles on the way, so damage per MP falls a little. Max it anyway: you buy kills, not MP. On a crowded map the stuns also mean fewer hits taken, and every Arrow Bomb can set off Final Attack: Bow too.

The monsters that give the most EXP per cast at every 5 levels. Each is up to 10 levels below you, has at least 10 on one map, and takes your attacks at least 95% of the time. Casts are how many attacks a kill takes on average after the monster's Weapon DEF, for each build in its own gear and skills, with whichever of its attacks below kills it fastest.

Arrow BlowDouble Shot

Ranked by EXP per cast for the Budget build. Monsters below your level are a little easier to hit than shown, and chance-based extras like Final Attack aren't counted. Spawn speed, map layout and other players change what an hour really gives, so try the top two and keep the one that feels faster. The Training Finder ranks the monsters for any level by EXP per HP.

You get 5 AP per level. Keep STR at what your next bow needs (its level, from level 15) and put everything else into DEX. DEX counts 2.5 times as much as STR in every arrow.

Bowman armor needs less STR than the bow of its level, so the bow sets your STR. A pure-DEX Hunter has far more DEX than any of it needs. Bows add attack like arrows do, and one with 7 scrolled slots adds up to +14 more.

• From the game data: skill numbers and prerequisites, monster levels and avoid, and item stats and requirements. They update when the game does.
• From the client's skill data: Arrow Bomb's level stats say 0% and one monster, because the damage is in its linked blast; the blast's numbers come from the level text and its description (up to 6 monsters), and its 260×200 area from the client data. Bow Mastery's critical rate and Speed are only in its level text.
• From players: SP per level, the 2nd-job SP lock, and the damage, critical, accuracy and attack-speed formulas come from community testing (meowdb). That both of Double Shot's arrows hit a lone monster, that Power Knockback counts as a close-range swing, and that Final Attack: Bow's procs add their damage on top of the attack are community findings; the game data doesn't confirm them.
• Calculated: the attack comparison, the Bow Mastery curve, the Bow Booster speed-up, the Arrow Bomb tables and the accuracy counts use those formulas with example stats. Misses, crits and positioning all move real results.
• Budget and Pro builds: the gear picks are written by hand. Prices are the median HubCW sale of the last 30 days, or the median Free Market ask when nothing sold; a dash means neither. Crafted arrow costs are the recipe's materials at those prices. The damage figures assume 25 starting stat points, 5 AP a level, and STR at 4 or what the bow and armor need.
