Sharpshooter

Only Lance and Phyllis can become Sharpshooters.

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

Sharpshooter Pros & Cons

Pros:

+ Highest damage in the game with a bow — and even higher with a gun.

+ Fastest farming class in the game.

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

+ Bow SS can deal damage from very long range, while gun SS has strong control: it can seal/lock down an enemy and weaken them, making it invaluable on bosses and in PvP even with weak gear.

+ Sharpshooter gear and gems are usually not very expensive. Even with mid-tier gear, SS becomes very strong for farming, leveling, and PvP.

Cons:

- Lowest HP and Defense growth among all classes.

- Due to low survivability and lack of defensive skills, SS relies mostly on movement speed and careful play.

Leveling

You can reach level 75 through the storyline questline. Grinding mobs to 75 is much slower compared to finishing the ~3-hour story line, which teaches mechanics and introduces NPCs tied to daily quests and life skills. From 75 to 80 you must level on Dragon Island or in the Mirage (EXP is gained only in these locations).

What Stats to Build

Classic Sharpshooter

The main stat for Sharpshooter is Accuracy — you should max it to 100. As Accuracy increases, your Attack increases as well. After Accuracy, invest into either Agility or Constitution.

- Agility increases Attack Speed and DPS — useful in PvP, farming, and leveling. - Constitution slightly increases survivability — useful in PvP.

If you need to reset stat points, you can buy stat reset potions in the Item Mall.

Skill order depends on what your SS uses more: musket or bow. At higher levels you have enough skill points to upgrade both musket and bow skills. Since after level 40 muskets are much easier to obtain than bows, new players are recommended to focus on musket skills first.

Pure CON Sharpshooter

An alternative build is a “pure CON SS” — a Sharpshooter who primarily invests into Constitution. This build has high HP and Defense, but very low damage versus players and bosses. Because of that, pure CON SS cannot level or farm solo, and does poor damage in PvP. This is a very situational build mainly used to support the guild: sealing bosses and enemy players in PvP.

Sharpshooter Gear

Core Gear

While completing the storyline, you will craft your own equipment via life skills. You receive Ancil gear (armor and weapon) that you will upgrade throughout the whole game.

Gems

Recommendations for forging gems and choosing gear:

# Slot	Budget Gem	Best Alternative	Tip	Priority
Ancil Weapon Lv45 / Lv55 / Lv65
Slot 1	Explosive Gem +15 ATK	Eye of Black Dragon +75 ATK	Weapon is your main source of Attack scaling (together with gloves) and % Attack Speed. Pick your main weapon (current meta is bow). Start refining weapon to 110% already from +9 (individual — watch how many gains you get per refine).	-
Slot 2	Cracked gem of striking +3 Accuracy	-	Very budget gem for Accuracy growth. Try to push it to at least Lv4 easily.	Highest
Slot 3	Water rock +2 Accuracy	-	Not budget, but provides stable Accuracy scaling. Make sure you’ve hit the ceiling with cheap options first.	High
Ancil Armor Lv45 / Lv55 / Lv65
Slot 1	Cracked gem of colossus	Soul of Black Dragon	Push Cracked gem of colossus up to Lv4 max, then try to swap to the very expensive Soul of Black Dragon.	Medium
Slot 2	Shining Gem	-	No real alternative. Defense gems don’t help much vs magic. CON does not give huge survivability gains for SS, so go for HP gems instead. You can always refine body — extra +2 PR never hurts. Increase HP at the same pace as you gain more Attack. In PvP even 10 HP can flip a fight.	-
Slot 3	Shark's Strengthening	-	Best HP gem. Not cheap, but worth it.	Medium
Boots of Apollo Boots Lv75 (RAR: Accuracy & Agility)
Slot 1	Fire rock	Heart of Black Dragon	Heart of Black Dragon is expensive even at Lv1. Consider Fire rock up to Lv3–4 (also not “cheap-cheap”). Try to find boots with the best RAR you can afford to avoid re-forging later — the stat value from tier upgrades can be massive.	Lower than Cracked gem of the wind. Agility = Attack Speed = your DPS.
Slot 2	Cracked gem of the wind	-	Great budget gem for Agility.	High
Slot 3	Gem of the wind	-	Not budget, but provides strong Attack Speed scaling. Farm/buy it after cheap options cap out.	Medium
Gloves of Apollo Gloves Lv75 (RAR: Accuracy)
Slot 1	Water rock +2 Accuracy	-	Not budget, but provides stable Accuracy scaling. Make sure you’ve capped cheap options first.	Medium
Slot 2	Cracked gem of striking	-	Best gem for Accuracy = damage.	High
Slot 3	Gem of striking (+5 Accuracy)	-	Not budget, but strong Accuracy scaling. Go for it after cheap options cap out.	High
Helmet Lv75 (Accuracy)
Slot 1	Red jade	-	HP is needed, but gem is expensive. Armor forge gives more stats; look at this slot only after you hit the armor forge ceiling.	Low–Medium
Slot 2	Yellow jade	-	No alternative. Extra Defense won’t hurt.	Low
Slot 3	Orange Jade	-	Best DPS gem in the game. Does not increase Double Shot damage, but massively boosts crit chance for killing players and mobs. Expensive.	High
Ring for Accuracy (Black Market Lv40 / Lv50 / Lv60) or Mermaid Tears +12 Crit DMG
Slot 1	Fiery Gem +10 ATK	-	Extra damage source. Choosing vs Mermaid Tears is personal — experienced players often run Mermaid Tears and later (with higher Orange Jade in helmet) swap to stats from .	High
Slot 2	Shining Gem	-	Cheap HP gem — exactly what you need.	High
Slot 3	Glowing Gem	-	Defense helps. No alternatives.	Low
Black Market Necklace Lv40 / Lv50 / Lv60
Slot 1	Broken gem of striking	-	Socket it when possible and upgrade its level over time.	Medium
Slot 2	Broken gem of the wind	-	Extra Attack Speed source.	Low
Slot 3	Small Shark's Strengthening	-	Extra HP is always nice.	Medium
Indigra's Shroud of Accuracy (Cloak)
Slot 1	Insight of Indigra	-	Take Attack where you can. If your GS is too low, don’t buy these — they’re weak compared to other gems.	Low
Slot 2	Elusiveness of Indigra	-	Agility, socket when possible.	Low
Slot 3	Resilience of Indigra	-	Constitution, socket when possible.	Low

Additional items & tips:

Item	Tip
Fairy Companion 2 gen	Fairy is your main stat source. For Sharpshooter it’s Accuracy. Level it first — with Possession active, stats are x2.
Riding mount	Level when possible. Move Speed is the #1 stat for Sharpshooter.
Regular Hand Pet or Rare Hand Pet	If possible, great convenience. A rare pet gives % stats. Best pick: +3% Attack.

Consumables

Consumables can boost your damage/survivability by up to ~50%. Don’t ignore them in PvP (and sometimes during farming):

Item	Effect	Tip	Priority
Crafting:
Flash Bomb Lv1	Stuns all enemy targets in radius for 1 sec. Does not work on special monsters and bosses.	Flash Bombs (flash) are everything.	High
Carrion Ball Lv1	Reduces enemy Physical Resistance by 2 and Defense by 3%.	Mandatory vs tanky Champions and other magic classes; also for boss kills.	High
Soul Detector Lv1	Detector works like “True Sight” (Cleric / Sorceress). Places an “eye” that detects invisible players in radius, but does not break invis.	Required vs Voyagers.	High
Radiation Lv1	Emitter deals damage and reveals nearby invisible enemies, applying a DoT that prevents invis. Can’t be dispelled. Scaling increases with Emitter level. Won’t apply if the target is already poisoned or under Voyager’s “Poison Dart”.	Also good to break invis near you. In mass PvP, tanky classes pop these in the enemy blob — SS usually can’t.	Low
Cooking:
Blessed Potion	Applies “Invincibility” for 5 seconds. You can’t take damage or receive effects. Cooldown 1 minute.	The most important item in the game — can flip PvP.	High
Ice Cream	Restores 450 HP.	Minimum for solid PvP sustain. Cake works for PvE.	High
Fruity Mix	Restores 550 HP.	Highest sustain, but can be expensive — great for portal closing.	Medium
Biscuit	Attack Power +250 for 10 minutes.	Minimum for a full raid duration.	High
Spring Roll	Attack Power +450 for 10 minutes.	Strongest ATK cook buff, but can be expensive — great for portal closing.	Medium
Savory Bubble Fish	HP +900, Physical Resistance +2 for 10 minutes.	Minimum for raid duration.	High
Prawn Dumpling	HP +3000, Physical Resistance +4 for 10 minutes.	Strongest tank cook buff, but can be expensive — great for portal closing.	Medium
Gyoza	Restores 15% HP. In Chaos mechanics restores 8% HP.	Can’t get better — but can be expensive.	Medium
Other:
Elixir of Lion	Increases Attack for 90 minutes. Does not stack with other elixirs.	Extra damage scaling.	High
lantern festival hurricane lamp	Increases Defense by 50 and Physical Resistance by 1 for 10 minutes.	Extra survivability.	High
Battle Array	Increases Attack by 75 and Attack Speed by 10 for 10 minutes.	ATK + AS — always useful.	High
Full Body Armor	Increases Defense by 70, HP and SP by 300 for 10 minutes.	Extra survivability.	High
Acceleration Potion	Increases Move Speed by 15% for 10 minutes.	Most important after Blessed Potion. Try to use with Weightless Potion for portal closing.	High

Class Gameplay

Sharpshooter is very afraid of “burst damage” from other classes due to low HP, so you must play carefully:

• Endgame SS in Snow War and Chaos usually means constant weapon swapping (bow ↔ gun) via the skill bar. So even a bow build should still have and at Lv10.
• Mistakes are not forgiven.
• Don’t forget about if you play bow.
• A clean combo with + can let you delete someone fast with + .
• Always keep your attack radius as far from the enemy as possible. Your advantage is range — use it and pump tons of physical damage when you’re safe.
• It’s relatively hard to play in small raid groups — you can get jumped and focused at any moment. SS shines the most in big raids.
• Players often meme others for weak forge and bow play. Sometimes it’s worth listening: if your GS is low compared to other DPS, the best team (guild) play can be running Gun with maxed and to help stronger players secure kills — do this until your own kills outweigh the gun’s utility.
• Using Flash Bomb Lv1 on yourself (outside Chaos and Snow War) can be a mistake. Pre-using it for a setup can be good.
