Greetings from <Summoners War: Chronicles>.

 

New Monster, 5★ Magical Archer, has been added to the world of Chronicles after the Jun. 15th update.

 

We have received word that numerous Summoners are expressing considerable interest in the new Monster!

 

So, we have prepared a special guide to assist all Summoners in effectively using Magical Archer.

 

Please check the details below.

 


 

▌Power Up with CM Serena (Guide to Magical Archer)

 

1. Basic Info on Magical Archer

Magical Archer has a Weak Point DMG effect, which triggers various bonus effects during battle.

※ What is Weak Point DMG?

→ Weak Point DMG is triggered by chance based on the difference between Magical Archer’s Precision and target’s Evasion, and CRIT DMG does not occur.

When Weak Point DMG is triggered, the damage amplifies based on Magical Archer’s Precision.

- Magical Archer’s basic attack will trigger Double Shot upon Weak Point DMG. 

- Each attribute triggers different effects when applying Weak Point DMG.

 

2. Information on Fire/Water/Wind Magical Archer

① Powerful DPS “Fire Magical Archer”

- Awakened Name: Cassandra

- Main Keywords: #Weak Point DMG #Remove Beneficial Effect #Block Harmful Effect Removal #Block Beneficial Effect #ATK SPD UP

- Main Skills

[Basic Attack]: Attacks the target and uses Double Shot with a certain chance upon attacking the weak point.

* Double Shot: Quickly attacks the enemy 2 times. Drains a portion of the damage dealt upon attacking the weak point.

[Accurate Shot]: Attacks the enemy 3 times with burning arrows, and each hit has a certain chance to remove a beneficial effect.

[Hellfire Arrow]: Fires a hellfire arrow to attack the enemy and applies Block Harmful Effect Removal

Upon attacking the weak point, applies Block Beneficial Effect on the target and applies ATK SPD UP to itself.

 

▶ Serena’s Monster Tip: Since Magical Archer has Beneficial Effect Removal, Block Harmful Effect Removal, and Block Beneficial effect,

she is primarily used in PvP (Challenge Arena, Brawl Arena, Battlefield).

You can surprise your opponents by using her as a surprise card during the ban-pick phase in the Brawl Arena!

 

② The Best Archer of Oblivion “Water Magical Archer”'

- Awakened Name: Sharron

- Main Keywords: #Weak Point DMG #Recovery Received DOWN #Oblivion #DEF DOWN #ATK SPD UP

※ What is Oblivion?

→ It’s one of the CC effects. The target under the Oblivion effect will not be affected by passive effects.

E.g.) When 5★ Water Ifrit is under Oblivion, the power of spirits is not applied.

- Main Skills

[Basic Attack]: Attacks the target and uses Double Shot with a certain chance upon attacking the weak point.

* Double Shot: Quickly attacks the enemy 2 times. Drains a portion of the damage dealt upon attacking the weak point.

In addition, applies Block Harmful Effect Removal if the weak point attack target has over a certain LV of Undead.

[Accurate Shot]: Attacks the enemy 3 times with cold arrows, and each hit has a certain chance to apply Recovery Received DOWN.

[Hell Ice Arrow]: Fires a hell ice arrow to attack and apply Oblivion to the enemy.

Applies DEF DOWN upon attacking the weak point and applies ATK SPD UP to itself.

[Keenness - Passive]: When attacking a target with Recovery Received DOWN, replaces the effect with Undead. 

Applies Recovery Received DOWN with a certain chance if the target has Oblivion.

※ What is Undead?

→ When applied with Undead, HP cannot be recovered, and a portion of the recovery received will be taken as damage.

Undead can stack up to 10 levels. (DMG conversion ratio: 20/30/40/48/55/61/67/72/77/80%)

E.g.) If 100 recovery is applied when under Undead Lv. 2, it will be converted to 30 damage

 

▶ Serena’s Monster Tip: All effects, such as Recovery Received DOWN, Oblivion, and Undead are specialized toward PvP.

She can be used in both the defense deck and attack deck in Challenge Arena.

In Brawl Arena, she is a strong contender to be picked first as she has the ability to shut down Monsters that have powerful passive skills.

 

③ Powerful Survival Drain DPS! “Wind Magical Archer”

- Awakened Name: Ardella

- Main Keywords: #Weak Point DMG #DEF DOWN #Block Beneficial Effect #Drain #Unrevivable

- Main Skills

[Basic Attack]: Attacks the target and uses Double Shot with a certain chance upon attacking the weak point.

* Double Shot: Quickly attacks the enemy 2 times. Drains a portion of the damage dealt upon attacking the weak point.

[Accurate Shot]: Attacks the enemy 3 times with arrows that split the wind, and each hit has a certain chance to apply DEF DOWN.

[Lightning Arrow]: Fires a lightning arrow to attack the enemy and apply Block Beneficial Effect. Applies Drain to itself upon attacking the weak point.

[Keenness - Passive]: Applies Unrevivable to the target when Magical Archer attacks while having Drain.

 

▶ Serena’s Monster Tip: During PvP battles, she can neutralize the opponent’s revive skills and main beneficial skills (CRIT DMG UP, etc)  thanks to her Block Beneficial Effect and Unrevivable effects.

Furthermore, her Drain effect provides her with a certain level of survivability,

allowing her to sustain herself and consistently deal damage, showcasing high performance.

 

3. Development and Runes 

- Unlike other DPS Monsters, Magical Archer is a Monster that needs to maximize her Weak Point DMG.

- Thus, CRIT Rate and CRIT DMG are not as important for Magical Archer,

and ATK, ATK SPD, Precision, and HP are key.

- It is recommended to equip Fatal/Destroy Runes, to further enhance these advantages.

▶ Main Runes: Fatal Runes, Destroy Runes

▶ Main Properties: ATK(%), ATK SPD, Precision, HP(%)

* To ensure survivability, it’s recommended to use HP (%) as the main property in one of the 2nd, 4th, or 6th Runes.

* Since most skills are based on ATK, it is crucial to prioritize ATK(%).

* Following that, it is advisable to prioritize ATK SPD to repeatedly trigger Weak Point DMG through basic attacks.

* Precision can increase Weak Point DMG,

but it is recommended to maintain it at around 150% instead of going overboard.

 

※ Other Development Tips

- Runes can be improved not only through Enhancement but also through the use of Galaxy Stones and Spell Books.

* The properties of Galaxy Stones and Spell Books need to be compatible with Magical Archer.

- Galaxy Stones and Spell Books can be crafted via Profession, so remember to keep progressing your Profession.

- Galaxy Stones and Spell Books with unwanted properties can be combined,

so try combining them when you have a sufficient amount.


 

That's all for the tips on the Magic Archer.

 

We hope you find this guide helpful and continue to enhance your Magic Archer.

 

We will return with more useful tips next time.

 

Thank you.
