I'm thinking of playing SOA as an archer.
What race? What proficiency? ------------------ Where there are monsters and barbarians there will be Byronas fighting against them. |

The best archer is an ELF! 19 Dexterity == +3 THAC0 with missiles!
For my archer I picked: Short Bows: +++++ Halberd: + Later I picked up Two-Handed Sword, Two-Handed Weapon Style and Quarterstaff. But the important thing is the Short Bow. There are so many awesome short bows in SoA: Tungian Bow, Bow of Tacheron, and Gessen Bow, to name (and probably misspell) three. -- Nifft |

? Because of that one measly +1 THACO you want to sacrifice 9 Hp?
I dunno, but I rather just use a good old Human archer, besides the THACO can easily go below -20 with the right equipment. With -20 THACO, you will only miss when you score a critical miss. |

Thanks guys! I don't need anything else.
I'll start it as a half-elf. ------------------ Where there are monsters and barbarians there will be Byronas fighting against them. |
