Archers are the equal to any melee fighter, especially if they're grand master of the short bow. A high level archer using Called Shot+Whirlwind attack with the Gesen Bow is a terror to behold. And being able to do it all in relative safety. few stand a chance even with a lone Archer w/Boots of Speed and Hide in Shadows. Sneak up, pelt them with arrows, then retreat, and repeat. But I suppose that's not much fun and Archers can be overwhelmed by masses of melee fighters, though they can defend themselves more than adaquetly. Again, it's just a matter of personal taste. Melee or Missle? the ultimate question.
