Good ranged class for PVE

[Häns]

Hi guys, I'm new in this game, and I don't have a whole lot o time to play, so I'm trying to realize a good class for me.

I've tried the Gunner (I'm lv29) and it's good. I did not find it GREAT, but I'm enjoyng it, most of the time..

The archer I've only tried to lv 10, and I hated the lack of mobility (I really think the attack animations should be swapped with the gunner... To fire that big cannon one should be standing, to hold that weapon backfire power)

I've read the sorcerer is nerfed, and did not try it, but I watched some videos and they look fun...

I'm looking for a ranged attack class, with mobility and some survivabilty (CC's, evasions...)

Thx for ur time

For ranged attack class with mobility, you pretty much stick with the gunner. Ranger has a lot of firepower, but not so much on mobility, at least early levels.I dont know about the sorcerer nerf, and i dont care really, i have one and i find it quite good and fun.
What really worked for me was actually the priest class, if you dont mind loosing on the damage department, it has all the survivability you need.

Gunner's the way to go, from what I hear.

I'm gonna try a Sorce, but gonna keep my Gunner

I would recommend you to use Gunner/Archer as PvE ranged class. Archer's have high mobility and good PvE and currently Gunner's are highly overpowered and with good gear can easily solo all dungeons.

i think only 2 of the gunners skills can be used without stopped and some you have to freeze for a couple seconds i wouldn't exactly call it a mobile class especially with only one dodge roll on a cooldown

on the brightside they pack a hell of a punch

Personally a big fan of archer. Gunner I thing is a tad OP having played one from 1-65, and not challenging enough, but fun. Archer does gain more mobility once you get glyphs that eliminate some of the movement restrictions on certain attacks. Sorcerer, not much mobility, but does nuclear damage at a distance by quarter game forward, just have to give it a chance. Been playing this game since late beta years ago and maxed every class 2x (some more), and still , the 2 classes I keep going back to over and over are my Warriors (for melee) and my archers for ranged. The fun of those 2 classes when I started was that their true potential unfolds as you play then more. Not having so much time to play, IMO is a plus, you get to savor the progress as opposed to hurrying it.

Yeah, I'm a big fan of archers too, played them on almost every MMO I've played till this day, and because of your answer I'm gonna give Tera Archer a chance too.. really thx!
