Sharpshooter — one of the six main classes in the game. Lance and Phyllis can become Sharpshooters. A Sharpshooter primarily deals physical damage with ranged attacks and long-range skills. Depending on gear and build, an SS can be either a damage dealer or a support for their guild. Can wield both a musket and a bow.

Pros and Cons of the Sharpshooter

Pros:

+ The longest attack range and the highest movement speed among all classes.

+ A bow Sharpshooter can deal damage from very long range, and with a musket they have very strong control: they can seal an enemy and weaken them, which makes the class indispensable in boss fights and PvP even with modest gear.

+ Usually gear and Gems for Sharpshooters are not very expensive, and even with average character stats and equipment an SS becomes quite good at farming, leveling, and PvP.

Cons:

- The lowest HP and Defense growth among all classes.

- Due to low survivability and lack of defensive skills, they can only rely on movement speed and careful play.

- To transition from a support role to a damage dealer, moderate investment in gear is required.

Leveling

Recommended leveling spots can be found on the Character Leveling page.

Which Attributes to Level

Classic Sharpshooter

The primary attribute a Sharpshooter should max out to 100 is Accuracy. As Accuracy increases, attack increases. Additional attributes to raise after Accuracy are Agility or Constitution. Agility increases attack speed and DPS, which is useful in PvP as well as during farming and leveling. Constitution slightly increases survivability, which can be helpful in PvP. If you need to reset stat points, you can buy stat reset potions in the item mall. The skill learning order differs depending on what the SS uses more often: musket or bow. At higher levels there are enough skill points to upgrade both musket and bow skills. Since after level 40 muskets are much easier to obtain than bows, it’s recommended that new players focus first on leveling musket skills.

Pure CON Sharpshooter

An alternative build is the “pure CON SS” — a marksman who primarily increases Constitution. Such a sharpshooter has a lot of HP and Defense but no damage against players or bosses, so a pure CON SS cannot level and farm solo, nor deal damage in PvP. It’s a very situational build whose main purpose is guild support: sealing bosses and enemy players in PvP.

Sharpshooter Equipment

Main Equipment

Up to level 45, a Sharpshooter can use gear from the Beginner’s Chest. After that, look for level 45+ gear that drops from Equipment Summon Scrolls. In equipment, prioritize bonuses to Accuracy and Agility first, then Constitution. Pay special attention to gloves: a good option is level 55+ gloves that give +9 Accuracy or more. Universal equipment can be found in Dusty Chests (Lv. 60) and 55-level Unseals. Level 60 chests drop weapons but do not drop bows. Among 55-level Unseals there are both weapons and a bow.

Additional Equipment

  • The most suitable fairy pet for a Sharpshooter is a 1st- or 2nd-generation pet with an Accuracy bonus. For a pure CON SS, pick a Constitution pet.
  • The most suitable stat for a hand pet is +3% Physical Attack. For a CON SS: +3% HP.
  • Any mount.
  • Rings. Among normal rings, the best for a marksman Sharpshooter are those that give Critical Chance. Among unique rings, the best are Rings with an Accuracy Gem. For a CON SS: Rings with a Constitution Gem.
  • Necklaces. Among normal necklaces, the best for a Sharpshooter is one that gives Physical Resistance. Among unique necklaces, the best is a necklace with an Accuracy Gem. For a CON SS: a necklace with a Constitution Gem.
