Marksman

A Molok Marksman from Ignis realm.

The marksman is a class that has good defense and offence, but lacks support. They truly shine in PVP but are good in wars keeping the enemy at bay, and striking finishing moves on damaged foes. Their debuffs are also quite effective, since they are special, and tend to confuse the enemy. Marksmen have the same great evasion abilities of the hunter, but also have impressive damage dealing skills. With expanded range and increased accuracy they can pack a punch on unwary opponents that thought were at a safe distance. Marksmen that learn to handle their mana and locate weak targets in a battle, are fast, accurate and unforgiving.
