Just a reminder that this exists on both PC and Wiki:
https://gswiki.play.net/mediawiki/index.php/Guides_by_Whirlin:_Pure,_Archer,_and_War_Mages_Guide

I have updated it based on my evaluation of ELR... knowing that it's incomplete, I may update it more later upon new releases (Looking at you Esty). I've also included a lore section which justifies my recommendations.

I will advise training paths in this thread should there be any questions, or offer a slightly biased perspective on comparisons, should you need any.
I WILL NOT comment on Stat placements, as stat placements is an incredibly subjective practice based on your own prioritization on TP versus Growth.

I read Whirlin's guide and my cholesterol dropped significantly the very next day.

Lots of great info in Whirlin's mage guide. However the Voln symbol of mana info is wrong, cooldown is 5 min. not 3.

Yes, no where near wracking, but when you have lots of favor it can extend the hunt. Symbol of Recall and Symbol of dreams are very useful after a demise.

We've had Gm confirmation that 404 Disarm Enhancement helps with aiming ranged weapons. Do you still feel that 402 Presence helps as well?

402 was debunked by Estild, 404 was confirmed I believe.
