Description
Archer is a Stamina Warden Bow only PVE Build. We are utilizing the Warden’s unique nature and skills to create a pure ranged, Bow only build. A balanced and strong PVE Build, perfect for everyone that enjoys playing with the Bow as their main weapon.
Archer can complete almost every PVE content. For a Dual Wield/Bow Stamina Warden PVE Build you can take a look at Force of Nature.
If you are a new player, you can take a look at my Warden Beginner Guide.
If you are looking for a Solo PVE Build for Arenas like the Maelstrom Arena and Vateshran Hollows, take a look at my Stamina Warden Solo Build.
You can find more Builds in the Warden Builds page.
Armor Sets
Slimecraw is a great option to boost Critical Chance. Kjalnar’s Nightmare as alternative if you are not using the Harpooner’s Wading Kilt Mythic Item.
(Perfected)Arms of Relequen: Best in Slot Stamina DPS set in ESO at the moment.
Kinras’s Wrath: Great DPS Set. Briarheart and Tzogvin’s Warband are good alternatives.
Harpooner’s Wading Kilt: Boosts Critical Chance and Critical Damage when dealing Direct Damage. Great option for Bow, ranged builds.
Thunderous Volley/Perfected Thunderous Volley: Best option to complete sets that don’t have a bow of their own and to increase our AOE-DOT damage from Endless Hail.
