View Full Version : The 'Best' Archer Gear? - Lost Expedition

Alright, so with the new trading system on the horizon I figure people are now going to be on the hunt for the best-o-the-best (because that's what it's all about, right?) So I figure why not start a thread to help people look for stuff they either didn't know existed, or maybe have a few of and others might need.

Now I'm not saying this gear is by far the best, but it's the top of what I get from drops playing with a lvl 30 for the last week or so. And it will give a good jump off point for everyone to discuss and post their own pics.

I know this is probably going to be moot point once the new expansion comes out so all we can work with is the lost gear for now. So let's get posting...

I think the highest dps weapon for archers after the bow update is the Jewel Thief's Heavy Crossbow (used to be the frost king bow of evasion).
I've been looking around for the Jewel Thief's Heavy Crossbow but never got the loot. If anyone can share where they get theirs I would really appreciate it, thanks.

I Got my Jewel Theif's Heavy Crossbow about a week ado while farming... i got it in Dark Forest "The King's Forest" The Jewel Theif's Heavy Crossbow is really over-powered now, with the new update. For any Archer that is lvl 30, i highly reccommend getting one of these, probably the best Archer weapon in the game. (as of now)

I didn't know it drops in Dark Forest... that would be so much easier than finding one in Fantom Crypt. But what lvl is the Jewel Thief's bow you got? I am afraid it will drop the same bow but at a much lower lvl than 30.

Thanks for the tip. I've been farming at The King's Forest and finally got a Heavy Crossbow of Finesse (lvl30), so I guess farming for high lvl items are easier than I thought. I'll keep going until I find the Jewel bow.

Woot! I got my Jewel Thief's Heavy Crossbow after 5 mins after replying to this thread.
So I end up having 2 good crossbows: Heavy Crossbow of Finesse and Jewel Thief's Heavy Crossbow

I found they both sell at the same price, damage, and DPS on both are the same.
So I don't know why they have different color because one is not necessary better than the other.

Only differences are:
Heavy Crossbow of Finesse
6 Dex, 2% dodge, 2 armor

Jewel Thief's Heavy Crossbow
7 Dex, 2H/s, 2 armor

I found I like to use the Heavy Crossbow of Finesse when soloing because it is +dodge bow.
Don't really need health regen because my character is at 3h/s without bow already and archers don't get hit much.
If the Jewel Thief's Heavy Crossbow has both health + mana regen like the Jewel Thief's Ice Auto-Crossbow then that will be a different story.

Nathanyc seems to be using the Jewel Thief's Heavy Crossbow judging by the look of the bow and his DPS.
And seems like you have the Sniper's Battle Crossbow.
BTW, I think my setup is the same as yours, but I'm a birdman.
What are you guys wearing....is there any purple hats for archers around? Just curious.

Hello everyone, can someone tell me the helm that is the best for us? The armor is obvious ( i think) the Snipers bone tunic, the weapon can be Snipers battle crossbow or jewel thiefs heavy crossbow ( second looks really bad), but i dont know the hat that should be the besz for us.

Any recommendations about the items that I wrote? Are there better ones?

Unfortunately, I don't see any nice hats around and I believe there is no "end-game hat" for archers.
I think the best you can get is just yellow/orange items. But for me, I am wearing a white Penguine Snowcap of Evasion

Look closely at the numbers on the left side on these two hats,
I found that the +3 Dex on the Penguine Snowcap is equal and a tiny bit better than +1 dodge and 7 armor on the Theif's Penguin Snowcap. Because when you put them on, the +3 Dex not only made up for the +dodge and armor, but also +1 into Hit%... ya, difference is very small.

But the weird thing is when you select the other hat, it doesn't show Hit% -1, and shows Dodge+1 but the number is still 8, and Armor +0 :confused:

http://www.spacetimestudios.com/showthread.php?607-2-bugs-Preview-of-items-changes-from-Attributes-are-not-reflected.-Armour-is-buggy

Well firstly, the -1hit% is due to the hit% coming from +dex stats, not from the item itself.
So the same applies for the dodge.
Try un equipping both of them, aka no helmet, and see how the stats are.

nope.

A Pirate Penguin Snowcap should be better then that in terms of armour.

Well, I have a Jewel Theif's Ice Auto-Crossbow is nice and one of the best besides the Frost King Bow of Evasion before the update.
After the update, the heavy crossbows are better.
I'm not sure about frosty auto crossbow...never heard of that one.
