=Overview=
Windhawk PvM Guide I made based on my personal journey in MuhRO and community's advices as well. I hope this helps!

==Important Skills==
These are few of the skills that I find important. If you are interested in deeper explanation, I would like to recommend you to [[Wind Hawk|read more about Archer Branch Skills here.]]

===Archer===

|- style="height: 3em;"
| {{#skill:43}}Owl's Eye
| rowspan="2" |
These both skills are self-explanatory, incease your attack range and DEX per Level.
|- style="height: 3em;"
| {{#skill:44}}Vulture's Eye
|- style="height: 3em;"
| {{#skill:45|skill=Improve Concentration}}
| Incease your AGI and DEX by certain % amount. This skill is super helpful even at end game.
|- style="height: 3em;"
| {{#skill:46|skill=Double Strafe}}
| Good ''single-target'' skill for  beginning.
|- style="height: 3em;"
| {{#skill:47|skill=Arrow Shower}}
| Good ''AoE-skill'' (Area of Effect) which allow you hit multiple monsters at a time for the purpose of leveling.
|- style="height: 3em;"
| {{#skill:147|skill=Arrow Crafting}}
| Allowing you to create your own arrows from materials. We have custom Arrow Seller NPC in @go main, so no need to craft arrows by yourself. I usually only use this skill to make {{#item:1765|item=Immaterial Arrow}} cause they are not buyable on this NPC and has the highest ammoATK in the game.

===Sniper===
{| class="wikitable" style="width: 100%;"
|-
! style=" width: 15% "| Skill
! style=" width: 85% "| Note
|- style="height: 3em;"
| {{#skill:382}}
| Thanks to the rework, this transcendent Skill is our main skill until job change to Windhawk. It has +50 base CRIT from the skill. AoE-style skill, spam-able and do critical damage is the biggest advantage of it.
|- style="height: 3em;"
| {{#skill:383|skill=Wind Walker}}
| Increase Flee-Rate and Moving Speed to you and your party member, really helpful skill to move faster.
|- style="height: 3em;"
| {{#skill:380|skill=True Sight}}
| Huge boost to Hit, Damage, and Critical Rate. This skill is a must to be spammed when you are fighting anything.
|- style="height: 3em;"
| {{#skill:117|skill=Ankle Snare}}
| Immobilize monsters, if being stepped on. Increase your survivability, and make your Potion usage even lower, cause you can kill the monsters while they are unable to reach you.
|- style="height: 3em;"
| {{#skill:129|skill=Blitz Beat}}
| Allowing your falcon to attack. Usually helpful in cases where you have to kill monsters that only take "1" damage, cause ''Auto-''Blitz Beat gonna hit them multiple time, while you are auto attacking.

===Ranger===

| ''Single-target type'' skill that does '''NOT''' crit, but have 12 cells-range. '''NOT META.'''
|- style="height: 3em;"
| {{#skill:2247|skill=Camouflage}}
| Allowing you to stay "hidden" while moving and increasing your damage the longer you are in Camouflage. Really useful in places with no Boss / Demon / Insect Monsters.
|- style="height: 3em;"
| {{#skill:5002|skill=Unlimit}}
| One of your best skill. HUGE boost to your damage. Make sure to stay alive as long as possible.
|- style="height: 3em;"
| {{#skill:2241|skill=Warg Rider}}
| Coupled with Wind Walk, this skill will allow you to move super fast anywhere you want to go.
|- style="height: 3em;"
| {{#skill:2243|skill=Warg Strike}}
| Allowing your Warg to attack, and increase the damage too. Coupled with {{#skill:2245|skill=Tooth of Warg}}, it will boost the damage even higher.
|- style="height: 3em;"
| {{#skill:2248|skill=Trap Research}}
| Worth getting to at least Lv.1 to get the +220 SP bonus.

|The 4th's Job version of {{#skill:5002|skill=Unlimit}}. It allows your {{#skill:5330}} to crit and increases {{#skill:5334}} damage. If used properly without dying, you will have 100% {{#skill:5002|skill=Unlimit}} uptime by alternating between the two.

4.) Ping. How far are you to france? Low ping and high ping tend to have high spam rate, while medium (120~150ms) and very high ping (250ms+) will grant you terrible spam rate. If increasing ACDR doesn't give you higher spam rate, switch it out for damage. -->

This is the first choke point of being Windhawk. The transition towards Crescive Bolt will require you to have -1.0 FCT. {{#item:25067}} is mandatory to get that FCT reduction.

What I would like to point out about Windhawk is you might need to put more INT for faster VCT. Crescive Bolt and especially Gale Storm might need you to have higher VCT% in comparison to when you were just playing Sharp Shooting.

Feel free to tweak the status build as you like. This status build is what Stormus personally use.
----e.g. I put lower INT and give some to STR so I can carry more stuffs when farming without keeping teleporting back to town.

'''Traits (4th Job Status Build)'''

# POW 100 > CRT 100 > CON 35
# CON 100 > CRT 90 > POW 45
The most popular build so far is the first one, netting around 732m per Crescive Bolt meanwhile the 2nd Build is dealing 627m (-14,4% Damage) ''Tested by Meer.'' 

Despite Crescive Bolt scales on '''CON''', POW and CRT seem to be way more impactful towards its final damage than the CON.
==Equipments==
Despite having unlocked Crescive Bolt early on, most beginner Windhawk will probably never get to play this build until later on. Mainly cause this build requires you to have -'''1sec FCT and 50% ACDR'''.  Getting the -0.5sec FCT {{#item:25067}} is really easy now. So I suggest on buying that costume stone while slowly building the item down below.

Grace Set is way too good of a combo to break. This means if you have +11 Auto Leg A, but not having the Auto Armor / Engine Wing B, you gonna have a really terrible experience. This is caused by Grace Set giving good bonuses but only as a combo, if you break the combo, you will lose tons of damage and in the end switching to Automatic Set is actually a worse decision. I recently talked to a newbie who read this guide, and apparently as a field farmer he seemed to be fine farming with Grace Set for quite long. If you belong to this group of people who love to field farm instead of instance farming, I think you should just buy {{#item:25067}} and get the OSAD Bow + Ignis LT and after that try push straight to Episode 18 Quests and see if you can farm Gray Wolf Gears decently.

This part is actually kinda not recommended to make. It serves as a stepping stone before getting to the real end-game build. '''If you think you can skip some gears listed down below or using the lower grade version e.g. [D] instead of [C], without actually impacting your farming sessions, then feel free to skip.''' I personally used these gears to make my farming sessions smoother. If you don't need the extra damage, just save up for the next tier.
[[File:Grade Enhancing.png|thumb|Etherium spent to refine items from +0 to +10 from 17x attempts. Before the update on 27th July +9 > +10 = 18% compared to now 25%.]]
For those who never heard of [[Item Reform]] or [[Grade Enhancing]], feel free to read more on that topic.







The best way, I personally got advised, to refine your item from +0 to +10 during [[Grade Enhancing]] is just to raw refine with Etherium or Etheorodecon. This is cause '''''MuhRO actually have enhanced refinement rate compared to kRO''''' even using the normal ores. In average I spent 700 ores to refine an item form +0 to +10 only using Etherium. The table on the right side shows the ores spent from +0 > +10 before the update on 27th July (+9 > +10 = 18% chance compared to now after the update 25%). You can start using the hammer from +10 to +11. I still gonna keep repeating this, '''only grade your item if you really need the extra damage to farm your next items.''' This is cause by the time I'm writing this (21st July), my excel sheet indicates that I just spent 200m (Elunium, Etel Dust and refining cost) to refine an item from +0 to +10 (1018 Etherium spent). If in average we spend 700x (140m) to do a grading cycle, and on this section if you do all the grading it will be 10+ grading cycles to be done. That amount of zeny investment for items, that you will not use anymore at end game, seems kinda wasteful in my opinion. So '''''only grade the item if you really need the extra damage for your specific farming spot.'''''

|Tomb of Remorse is one of the end game instance. I suggest try farming the mobs for Minneas with alt windhawk chars and leave the instance without fighting the first MVP, if you are not geared enough to solo it. Clearing the whole instance + the quests with a 12 man party is also possible. You will need Minneas to enchant your helm.

Current best in slot gears for non-MVP user based on Episode 19. Some of you might not noticed it, but MuhRO by design  smoothens out the early gear progression. Farming these stuffs down below might be way more challenging than any part above, cause MuhRO tends to '''NOT''' smoothen the end game gearing part.

----{{#item:310701}}still somehow wins over {{#item:310706}}by 1~2% damage difference, but you are losing 16 CRIT Rate by doing so. ''Status: tested by me.''
----The damage gap between {{#item:490135}}and {{#item:490302}} is about 0.03% difference (Stellar Seal won). This is ignoring the last race/boss/normal enchant of the Varmundt Ring.

The test was done this way cause it would resemble the most scenario of farming something that is not related to your enchant. But if you get really good enchant on the Varmundt Ring, it will be way better to farm with it. (Tested by me, Stormus confirmed the same idea.)

|By the time I'm writing this guide 19th July 2023, MuhRO doesn't have Skill Queue. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8IaXq0LCKY This means your distance to the server MATTERS for your skill spam rate.]
#FPS. make sure to have 60fps or higher (by buying high refresh rate monitor)
# ACDR. Do you meet the required ACDR?
# ASPD. Do you have enough ASPD? e.g. 193 for Sharp Shooting
# Ping. How far are you to france?
#* Low ping (50ms) and high ping (200m) tend to have high spam rate.
#* Medium (120~150ms) and very high ping (250ms+) will grant you terrible spam rate.
#* If increasing ACDR doesn't give you higher spam rate, switch it out for damage.
