Howdy y'all, I am planning to quit my Outlaw and going back to my lvl 9x Sniper again. SO I was wondering would it be wise to use my top/bottom set that I have already on my Outlaw OR to buy a archer's overall that adds around 30 stats+? Also how much do 30stat+ archer overalls cost around? The top adds 15 STR The bottom adds 15 DEX Another thing is I have 64 base STR at the moment, Is that high/reasonable? Should I still stack my equips based on STR attributes? I understand maple warrior only affects your base stats...so by adding pure points into DEX would benefit more....? Do you guys AP wash away your EXTRA STR that is added from maple warrior? Also regarding AP washing... I understand that the archer class has a tiny bit less total HP than a gunslinger does... Did most of you BM's/MM's HP wash? Is it a necessity in higher levels(mostly referring to 4th job)? IF so how much AP washes did you use? Thank you for your help!

1) If you can wear the Top and Bottom, sure, go ahead. I would rather get an Overall though since it would probably be cheaper and add more Def. 2) Yes, base Dex would benefit you more than base Str would. 3) You don't want to rely on Maple Warrior to equip your weapon. Last I've heard, if you used Maple Warrior to help you equip any equipment, and Maple Warrior runs out, then you disconnect. If you get dispelled by a Boss, that'll be bad news. 4) No, you don't have to HP Wash. HP Washing just allows you to get to some spots earlier, like Skeles and Horned Tail. You have to HP Wash to get to Pink Bean though, but it'll require a lot .

1. that's a nice set of top+combo. i'd up my STR to 65 to round it up and not look for uneven numbers in equips then i'd say you're all set. but an overall would be cheaper (if you sell the top+bot combo) 2. base DEX benefits more. your STR is okay (if i have 60 base STR and i can use a shiner cross, i think you could get to wear a neschere) 3. nope. first because MW isn't a core bowman skill, meaning you would have to get someone to train with you who has max MW or it would have no sense at all. second, if MW runs out or u get dispelled, you D/C. 4. you can bloodbuild too. but if you don't want to meddle with HT/PB as of now, don't bother

Thanks for the replies, Though I am stuck now between whether I should HP wash or blood build? There is a current AP sale, 20k for 20 resets, so should I buy it for now? I calculated at my current level I am able to do around 16 resets, also if I do plan on washing.. will 20 resets be enough because I hear people saying either go big or go home?......lol By the way, Does anyone know roughly around how much a 120atk+ Xbow will cost? BIG thanks for your further inputs!
