The Ultimate Archer Guide *With Progression* (Hypixel Skyblock)

Today we’re going to be talking about the archer guide and how to build the best set for you but before we start i just want to mention that i have a discord server so if you have any further questions about dungeons there’s a dedicated channel for it also if you

Do enjoy this video i’d really appreciate it if you hit that like button and if you want to see more skyblock videos hit the subscribe button i am doing a face reveal if we hit 30 000 subscribers before the end of the year alright let’s not waste any time

And start with the armor for the armor i will be mentioning multiple different armor setups depending on what point of the game you’re in the first armor strong dragon armor or superior dragon armor undungenized since you’re just getting into dungeons you’ll not be able to just use any dungeon set because it

Will require a certain catacomb level therefore you can use this to get started or of course any other non-dungeon armor as long as he can reach catacomb 2. and speaking of catacomb 2 the second armor set is 3-4 fierce rotten armor with titanic heavy chestplates which has a catacomb 2

Requirement this armor has an okay amount of damage and effective hp if you are just getting started the third armor set is skeleton master armor which has a catacomb 12 requirement what makes this armor helpful for archers is the full set bonus where it increases your arrow damage by 25

Which does not include the additional 5 percent from each piece the issue you might face with this armor though is surviving as it does not give a lot of effective hp in that case there’s also the full soldier armor which has a catacomb 9 requirement this one does not

Do that much damage but it does have better effective hp and could be helpful if you do not meet the skeleton master requirement the fourth armor set is zombie knight armor which has a catacomb 14 requirement this armor also gives good amount of strength and has a decent

Amount of effective hp for surviving early to mid game floors comparing this to the skeleton master it gives more effective hp but you do lose on that arrow damage that skeleton master provides the fifth armor set is 3 4 shadow assassin armor with either zombie knight chest plate skeleton master chest

Plate tier 9 perfect chest plate werewolf chest plate or zombie soldier chest plate for the chest plate it comes down to preference in terms of damage price and effective hp the zombie soldier perfect chest plate and werewolf chest plate are the tanky ones while the zombie knight and skeleton master are

For damage skeleton master here is less effective because there is no full set bonus but it is a lot cheaper right now compared to the zombie knight so a good alternative the sixth armor set is well obviously full shadow assassin armor the shadow assassin requires 45 completion and gives decently high damage and

Effect hp although the reason why i did not suggest shadow assassin chest plate in the previous set because for some the shadow assassin chest plate can be expensive to buy anyways something i want to mention though is that the golden or the diamond head is also an

Option but the shadow assassin helmet is better only for this set because the full set bonus is extremely good paired with the baby yeti until you reach catacomb 28 and that is because the bonus does not scale with your caracom level unlike the heads just keep in mind

That you will require to own the head for that specific floor or it will be useless therefore it can get expensive if you do a lot of floors just something to remember the seventh armor set is superior armor dungeonized this armor is worse than the shadow assassin in terms

Of damage but good amount of effective hp it’s not really recommended nowadays but i did want to just mention it just in case you want to consider it just keep in mind that this armor no longer has a catacomb requirement the eighth armor set is diamond head with necron

Armor which requires for seven completion the necron armor is part of the wither family that focuses on damage this armor is pretty much the best armor in terms of damage that you can get in dungeons really good and used by most end game players the final armor set is

Diamond head with frozen blaze armor you might be wondering if i mentioned the best armor why is this here well the famous debate of necron vs frozen blades is back there are a lot of pros and cons of using both sets and will take a whole video to just compare them but overall

Frozen blaze gives more effective hp and almost the same damage as necron but against mobs like withers necron’s effective hp is better because of the damage reduction from withers each piece it gives the reason why people are currently using it more is because of the bug that allows you to pet stack and

Gain a lot more damage i won’t be mentioning that because it is against the rules but it will get patched soon so don’t bother going for that for that reason my opinion is that the frozen blaze armor should only be considered if you are really high catacomb and master

Start it fully but you will get pet locked because blazepad is what makes it good and that’s it for the armor setup just remember that you’re not required to use exactly what i’m showing you you can experience and see what fits you best although i do want to mention a

Bonus armor piece to consider which is the maxo boots these boots are also from the wither family that focuses mainly on speed and requires 47 completion in terms of damage the necron boots will be better but since speed is somewhat annoying for clearing many players use max boots for its speed i would

Personally say it only uses at a higher stage in the game anyways what reforges and ultimate enchant should you use well for armory forges you put ancient and if you cannot afford that you can use fears for ultimate enchant you have two options legion and last stand legion

Increases your stats and last hand increases your defense by a percentage when you are below 40 health clearly the legion is better for berserkers but for those who are having surviving issues last hand works too plus with the recent last hand fix it actually works if

Legion 5 is too expensive legion 3 works fine ok so let’s move to pet now finding the best bets for you can be difficult but hopefully i’ll help you decide the first bet is skeleton the pet gives you crit damage and quick chance as base stats and increases your arrow damage by 20

Which is tripled while in dungeons you also gain a combo stack for every bow hit giving you 3 strength and maxes at 20 stacks all while your pet’s shooting arrows to mobs next to you with a 15 second cooldown overall this pet is very good especially for killing mini bosses

The second pet is wither skeleton this pet gives strength great damage crit chance intelligence and defense as base stats and has the ability to take less damage from skeletons and do more damage to wither mobs especially for the floor 7 bathroom this bet would be very helpful and gives you that additional

Damage reduction although in some instances the damage reduction from skeletons isn’t enough so you would need an effective hp pet compared to the skeleton pet skeleton pet is theoretically better for single hit damage but with a skeleton has better stats especially that damage reduction from skeletons the third pet is griffin

This pet is often used for the region it gives but also gives you a decent amount of damage plus you would not need the legendary one since the uncommon or rare has the region ability the fourth and fifth bet is baby yeti and blue whale baby yeti gives you strength and

Intelligence as base stats and has the ability to give you defense depending on your strength while blue whale gives you a good amount of hp and defense because of the ability that gives you 3 defense for every 20 health both are amazing effective hp pets but as an archer you

Will have a lot of strength so baby yeti is better however with the strength nerf that happened not all builds have insane amount of strength and there are some cases but not many where blue whale gives more effective hp the calculations are not hard so look at your setup and

Figure out what fits you best anyways the sixth and seventh bets are ender dragon and golden dragon both of these pets are clearly damaged pets but they are very expensive golden dragon has worse effective hp intelligence and speed compared to the ender dragon in dungeons but it does slightly more

Damage although enter dragon is cheaper than the golden dragon and better if you plan on doing the end content also keep in mind that you would need to keep a bill in your bank for the golden drank to be even considered and you will need to reforge your legendary and mythic

Talismans to be shaded that is because the golden dragon does not give you any good chance finally the last pet is blaze this pet gives you intelligence and defense as base stats and has the abilities to upgrade blaze armor stats up to 40 percent and double the effects of the

Hot potato books overall this is the pet you need if you’re going for a frozen blaze armor let’s move on to pet items there’s so many pet items and honestly it all comes down to preference but here are the ones i recommend spooky cupcake for additional 30 strength and 20 speed

Tiger plushie for 35 attack speed minus relic for increased bet stats by 33 percent and dwarf tertial shellmet for no knockback the minus relic might not be the best option since for one it’s very expensive and not that good and anyways most people end up using the shelmet because the knockback in

Dungeons is one of the most annoying things anyways let’s talk about the weapons now the weapons i’ll be mentioning are artisanal short bow machine gumbo hurricane bow ronin’s bow super undead bow spirit bow death bow last breath bone meringue juju short bow flower truth soul whip terminator and

Sila the first weapon is machine gun bow this bow is very underrated cheap and decent for early game floors on top of that it has the ability that rapidly shoots which can be helpful sometimes really good starter bow but requires catacomb 2 so if you are really new a

Good bow to use is the artisanal short bow this bow is not really a dungeon bow and cannot be dungenized but does a decent amount of damage and is really cheap the second bow is hurricane bow this bow is also an underrated bow for early game does more damage than machine

Gun and can shoot more hours at a time although a machine gun bow still has a good ability so having it on the side is definitely helpful if you are still in early game the third weapon is roonen’s bow this bow is very good as well for

Early and possibly mid game the ability it has where it shoots multiple arrows comes in hand for clearing too the fourth weapon is super undead bow it is the upgraded version of the undead bow and it does 100 damage to undead monsters but has a catacombs six-year requirement and is outclassed by other

Bows the fifth weapon is the spirit bow which has a floor 4 completion requirement this bow has a passive where it deals 2 percent more damage to undead mobs for every 1 missing hp which means if you are half hp you deal double the damage to undead mobs on top of that you

Can still use this bow when you’re dead so overall a decent mid game bow the sixth bow is the death bow this bow is the upgraded version of the super undead bow and has the same ability where it deals 100 more damage to undead mobs compared to the spirit bow it is better

In terms of damage against undead mobs but double the price the seventh weapon is last breath this weapon might be expensive but it’s very good for its ability where it reduces the defense of your target by 10 per hit maxing at 50 good secondary weapon for its ability

And damage the eighth weapon is bone meringue you probably heard about it but this weapon was nerfed a while ago which destroyed its price but i wanted to mention it because it’s still good single hit damage even more than juju but when it comes back it does no damage

In some situations it can be helpful for clearing but that is up to you you still can’t use multiple bones and also i want to add that it is helpful for stopping thorn in floor 4 boss room so that is a good use for it speaking of juju the

Next weapon is well juju shortbow this is now the most used weapon in the whole game because right now it is broken for its price it is really good for clearing and does really good damage for early end game players just keep in mind though that the bow shoots faster the

More attack speed you have which means you will need to reforge your talisman to something that includes attack speed the 10th and 11th weapons are flower truth and soul whip you might be wondering these are not bows how is this good for archers well the answer is

Simple they are mainly used for clearing if the ball you have is not good for that comparing both of those flyer tooth takes 10 of your max mana each time you use it which means even if you do have a lot of mana it doesn’t matter you’ll

Always run out of mana while clearing other than that it is still good however i prefer the soul whip because it deals a decent amount of damage requires no mana and can lie still while constantly spamming the ability there are other clearing weapons but these are the ones

I recommend the next weapon is terminator as many of you already know terminator is the best archer weapon but requires eman 7 to use especially in master mode this weapon is a must-have for archers as archers need to be the highest damaging player in the party

Finally the last weapon is psylo this is not really used as a damaging weapon but more of a secondary healing weapon since short bows do not give life steal healing can be an issue therefore having suspicious reforge on styla and using the wither shield ability

It heals you up anyways that sums up the weapons hopefully i was able to help you decide on which one to use now for its reforges for sylah go for suspicious reforge for terminator go for hasty for the crit chance and for damage go spiritual if you cannot get spiritual

Rapid can work too for the ultimate enchant on the other hand soul eater is the best but swarm also works as an alternative just keep in mind though that you can just use a solitar 3 if you cannot afford a solitar 5 so there is no

Need to go for swarm next up we have the helpful items the first and most important item is eye spray this weapon is expensive it’s actually really helpful for killing fast mobs like shadow assassins because it has an ability where it freezes mobs for 5 seconds giving you time to do as much

Damage as possible the second item is the wonderful tournament this one heals you for 170 hp per second for 7 seconds if it’s too expensive you can use the downgraded ones as well the third item is florid or ornate zombie sword the florence zombie sword is the upgraded

Version of the ornate sword and has a good healing ability where it heals you for 168 hp plus five percent of your total health the fourth item is plasma flux overflux or manaflux the plasma flux is the upgraded version of the overflux and they all give you more

Strength and increases your region the fifth item is gloomblock grimoire this item has an ability where it heals you for 40 with overflow mana personally this item is better than the florida zombie sword but it is quite expensive so if you find florida to be good enough

There is no need to upgrade just remember that it consumes a lot of slow flow over time and lowers your damage after you use it the sixth item is gyro wand this item has two abilities the left click ability creates a rift at the targeted locations eight blocks in

Radius and all mobs in the rift gets pulled to the center for 4 seconds the right click ability applies the aligned effect to 4 nearby players and yourself for 6 seconds what the line does is that it splits incoming damage evenly between all aligned players overall this item is

Very helpful for killing mini bosses and clearing rooms with its left click ability in addition very helpful and necessary for master mode 6 but of course mages won’t be in master mode unless you’re really high catacomb the seventh item is wither cloak sword this weapon is mostly used for its ability

Where it spawns a veil around you giving you immunity from all damage this is probably the most underrated ability in the game it is extremely helpful for blocking damage that you know is about to come for example when countering a shadow assassin in addition helpful for

Phase 3 of the floor 7 bathroom when jumping on the lava and that is it i hope you guys enjoyed this video this video took me a long time to make so i appreciate it if you hit that like button and if you want to see more skylake videos hit that subscribe button
