Archers are adventurers who have trained all of their lives to utilize the bow. Their equipment is enhanced by magic to maximize efficiency and they possess the quickest draw in the Realm. The archer has a long-range attack with an ability that is a single concentrated powerful arrow. It is a good class for mowing down large groups of minions because its projectiles pierce through enemies and many of the bows fire multiple shots in different directions at once. [Click here](/wiki/class-guide-archer) for a guide on how to use the Archer effectively. **The Archer must be unlocked**: Reach level 5 with [Priest](/wiki/priest).
