So....I know hawker builds from way back when. I used to give advice on them all the time. However, I'm noting something: Things have changed. So, now it's my turn to ask questions.

Firstly, which of these classes, if any, excells in PvP and/or soloing? It used to be Katar Raiders were far superior in PvP, and were good in parties for luring. Scouts were decent in PvP, but only because of their range. And, if I recall correctly, Scouts were the ones that were best at soloing, of the three.

Secondly, what the heck are the builds for each class now? I'm hearing something about SEN not mattering anymore? That used to be one of THE stats to have -- for criticals, of course!

Finally....are hawkers even sought after in parties anymore? I'm not finding any. Then again, I'm not finding any other people. I'm level 96 right now -- try to decide what route to take at 100, and I can't seem to find anyone. Where does someone my level usually train?

Thanks in advance,
Kittiz

Edit: I forgot to mention, I have played with and am familiar with all three types of hawkers -- Dual Raider, Katar Raider, and Scout.

You can PvP well with any of the 3. Katar probably still has a slight advantage over duals (of equal gear and skill level). Scout can be good depending on how well you handle it.

For soloing I'd pick duals since they have the aoe. But you should try your hardest to always be in a party because it greatly increases the rate at which you can exp. There is no exp loss (per kill) while being in a party.

Stats are basically the same as before except without all that crazy sen. Dex is your main stat for all 3. Duals give the same amount of priority to str as they do to dex. For PvP con will be very important as well. Refer to this thread to see what each stat does now. http://forums.warppo...er-stat-ratios/

Hawkers should be sought out in parties for luring purposes. In my mind the best lures are scouts and crossbow knights. After them would be raiders.

Sounds to me like Scout is the way to go, for solo (1 vs 1 soloing, that is), PvP, and luring in parties. I just recovered an account of mine with a Lv. 187 katar hawker on it, so I think I'll restat/reskill my Lv. 9x to Scout and see how that is, once I can afford a suitable bow. [: Thank you so much for your help, Guardian! <3
