Interesting to read some of these replies. I can carry perilous with my Hunter using a Griffon... while my Archer does amazing dps with PbtM.

Stealth drops threat and allows me to reposition unmolested.

 

I prefer the Hunter because of it's survival ability. Archer is good too but when his back is to the wall he has less options.

 

Dealing high damage is important but you can't complete the mission if you're dead.

I use Tresparrin(?) on my archer for the easy chain explosions with Longshot on trash and Punched on my Hunter because the stats are just fantastic. The only true advantage Hunter has is the Edge passive. Toxic Cloud is pretty awesome too but I always end up missing Longshot. Knives are good. Not sure why more people don't take knives. They're pretty sick.

Hunter is more survivable with stealth esp. on Perilous but I've gotten 95+ kills just spamming one ability (longshot) with Archer cause of Lance. If we're talking about dps the Archer is significantly better at that role. If you like seeing large numbers on an ability that takes like 3 seconds to cast on stuff that is likely already damaged by the umpteen different spells and abilities that have already been unleashed while you are suffering from that long *** animation... then choose Hunter. Btw there are situations where i can longshot twice during that animation cause of that passive that reduces cooldown on party crits. Lol. All this just reinforces the fact that some of the abilities in each class need to be reshuffled, I feel like Mark of Death needs to be on the Assassin for example just to make him more viable. I feel like it's a class defining trait. Give Hall Lightning Flask instead =p

because MP is full of people with robot-brains who played too much mass effect, and they can't comprehend doing anything that's not mathematically superior and are incapable of experiencing emotions

Warden you ****** love talking about mass effect on here and categorising and generalising everyone the same way don't you? I thought you made some decent threads a while back and now I just see your a massive ball bag :)

Because an Archer with Longbow of the Griffon can take out a room full of enemies faster than a  Hunter can complete one Hook and Grapple + Leaping Shot combo.

Going to keep this short , basicly the archer is way better then the hunter . Last weeks i have been playing with the same people in a group who all have good gear and everything dying allmosth instantly , so long shot is taking a big advantage in this role .Even with the perilous bosses the hunter has no way for doing more damage then the archer as the archer easy gets his 10-15k shots with mark of death and then in the meantime can spam his long shot  . 

Hunter is just pointless just like the alchemist...

Better? Not really, they're just different in terms of playstyle.

Hunter has better survivalbility. I think thats the biggest thing. If range fighters decide to target you archers are more then likely dead. Full draw can outshine the archer's long shot with grunnmans bow. Explosion on kill, crit on stealth, flanking, and no decrease in damage with full draw you can take out a whole mob of enemies almost instantly. Thats 3-5000 damage plus 75% of that is explosion damage to all nearby. There is punch by the maker but for some reason that bow doesnt work for me as well. There's the dying animation before exploding and by that time nearby enemies have already run off.

Just askin'. Also, why are there no Hunter guides in the DAMP resource thread?

 

I try my best, but can't keep up with all the threads here.

 

If you've seen someone post a helpful Hunter builder, definitely feel free to PM me or post it in my thread and I'd be happy to add it to the OP. :)

Archers have unrivaled damage. They kill everything fast. Groups, solo targets, bisses...


The Archer has long shot with piercing and Mark of Death. With the get cooldown when allies crit, archers spam powerful skills constantly.

Hunters best attack is full draw and its really slow to execute, doesnt kill multiple enemies, has a long cool down, etc. The hunter survives better, but its killing and setting up are so slow. On perilous, you want to kill many enemies quick because even the common enemy archers can one shot full hp players. Archers kill everything quick. My highest kill streaks on perilous are from an Archer just chaining long shots and exploding enemy chains.
