Elf Ranged Attack

For the Human skill, see Human Ranged Attack.

Description

Attacking the enemy from a place where his attacks cannot reach you is the easiest way to defeat an enemy. This is an obvious fact, but it's not so simple during actual battle. In a ranged attack, a weapon that enables such an attack and the skill to handle that weapon with precision are critical. Containing the basics of long-range attacks, learning Ranged Combat Mastery enables you to carry out more accurate and powerful attacks from a distance. However, this one thing must not be forgotten - long-range attacks are not accomplished by instant mental understanding but through persistent practice and training. The idea of a battle without risks is appealing, but it also requires much preparation and grueling training.

Details

• Requires a Bow or Crossbow and the respective Missile to use.
• Unlike the human version, Elves can run with the skill active, regardless of whether they are using a Bow or Crossbow.
  • Elves may aim while running.
  • Elves may also aim while on a mount. However, the mount must be standing still in order to load or fire.
    • Elves cannot use Ranged Attack while on a mount that is capable of Flight with the exception of Dragons, Pegasi and the Crystal Deer.
• Ranged Weapon speed affects how quickly the user may fire and reload a normal ranged attack.
• Elves shoot 2 Arrows/Bolts simultaneously.
  • Critical hit and damage are calculated independently for each arrow.
  • If the first arrow finishes the enemy, the second arrow will not fire.
    • It is possible to put an enemy into deadly status with one arrow, then finish them off with the second.
• If an enemy uses Defense on the Ranged Attack, only one arrow will hit.
  • Both arrows are still used however.
• Clicking once on a monster will load the skill and start the aiming meter. A second click will fire the arrow.
  • You must have Automatic Combat off and Reserved Attack on 'Once' or 'Not Used' to "hold" the missile after it is fully aimed.
• The Aiming meter goes up to 100%.
  • If the opponent is standing still, max aim meter is 100%.
    • Aim Rate can be modified to go up to 120% while using a Sharp Aiming magically Composed music score.
  • If the opponent is walking, max aim meter is 95%.
  • If the opponent is running, max aim meter is 90%.
  • If the character is moving, max aim meter is 50%.
  • Occasionally an enemy may be just outside the player's range despite the game showing them as in range, causing your attacks to miss.
  • Firing at any aiming value less than 100% will reduce the player's damage according to the aiming meter's value.
    • 50% Aim Rate results in 50% damage. 120% Aim Rate results in 120% damage.
  • Aiming speed multiplier increases with higher rank.
  • Aiming at 70% causes a visual flare and a bonuses to aim rate will take effect, regardless of aiming speed.
    • This only applies to players.
• Players with high latency may not have their aiming meter synchronized with the server.
  • This can cause the skill to miss, as the displayed aim is higher than the actual aim.
• The first attack will stun the opponent normally.
  • The second arrow carries no true knockback. As a result, it causes enemies who are being pushed back to be stunned instead.
    • This effect allows Elf Ranged to continuously push an enemy back with consecutive hits without causing a "bounce" or "reset".
• Ranged Attack and all Archery fire can be dodged by Evasion.
• The skill's Aim Speed Bonus does not affect Magnum Shot, nor Crash Shot.
• Prerequisite for learning Crash Shot (at rank F).
