Black Desert Mobile's Archer class is now available alongside several log-in rewards to celebrate its arrival
The Archer is joined by the alternative subclass, Fletcher
Last week players were able to customise Black Desert Mobile's latest class, the Archer, in the game's extensive character creator. Now they'll be able to actually use the class in the game proper alongside the alternative subclass Fletcher.
Within the class selection screen, players will be able to choose between either the Archer's original Ascension or the Fletcher Awakening subclass. Though both of these characters wield bows in battle, their playstyles are quite distinct.
The Archer's main weapon is a crossbow that they've mounted on their arm for speed and agility purposes. This allows them to be one of Black Desert Mobile's fastest playing classes, so it's worth checking out if you enjoy speed. Meanwhile, a divine gauntlet called Ra'ghon provides the Archer with magical arrows that can inflict a lot of damage to enemies.
Alternatively, the Fletcher subclass makes use of a great bow as their main weapon. This shoots large divine piercers that cast fatal damage to enemies. The great bow is known in-game for its sizeable range and power, leading to the nickname, Watcher of the Battlefield.
To commemorate the arrival of both Fletcher and Archer, a plethora of login rewards are up for grabs. Among them will be a Level 60 Character Generator Coupon, a tier 5 Panda pet and an Abyssal accessory selection chest.
Finally, players can now equip weapons and gear without any limitations. Before the latest update, an Adventurer's Black Spirit level determined which weapons and gear could be equipped for certain characters. As this is no longer the case, players can enjoy more flexibility in the game.
Black Desert Mobile is available now over on the App Store and Google Play. It's a free-to-play game with in-app purchases.
