Welcome to Soulfist, an advanced class underneath the Martial Artist tree in Lost Ark . It's a highly mobile class that specializes in both melee and ranged attacks through the use of a glowing, powerful medall

The Scrapper has some decent damage output, as well as huge Stagger buffs for you and your party. This is a mechanic that lets you stagger bosses for potential big damage bursts - it's what makes the Scrapper a lot of fun to play. Here's our rundown and overview.

This class overview covers some basic class mechanics for the Sharpshooter, as well as a look at playstyles, Engravings, and a sample skill build. This is not designed as an advanced class guide, but rather as a "Here's an overview to help you decide whether you want to play the ranged warri

The Sharpshooter, like other Gunner classes, likes Crit damage, especially with the build above. At level 3, Keen Blunt Weapon provides a boost of 50% crit damage. That's massive.

Most importantly, the damage-enhancing support skills for the Bard and Paladin have the same effectiveness, so most groups don't care who you bring. Ultimately, pick what you find the most fun or who you think looks the coolest.

Another familiar Engraving, Cursed Doll provides a solid 16% attack power boost at the cost of reduced healing (25%) when you use potions and other items. The tradeoff is worth it.

As well as the ranged attacks and a couple of melee attacks, the Sharpshooter's identity skill is to summon a Hawk . It acts a bit like a pet and requires very little micromanagement. You've got two options: send it in to tickle the enemy, or make it self-destr

The Barrage Engraving works with your Barrage mode, resets the cooldowns of all Barrage skills when you kill an opponent. This also increases skill damage by +2% with a 25 max stack.

Which one do you take with the Artillerist? Overall, the Firepower Enhancement engraving sees more use for PvE leveling and endgame clearing. Not only is the incoming damage reduction great for difficult content, but the boost to your crit rate also helps you deal even more damage during your burst window.

The Scrapper is a big, punchy class with a lot of damage and utility - namely what we mentioned above, the Stagger buffs . Stagger is a mechanic in Lost Ark that allows players to knock down enemies and bosses. The Scrapper has this on the class' abilities as well as buffs for their teammates.

Stats aren't massively important during your first T1 Dungeons. You can clear a lot of content with a reliable gear set and enough AoE damage. However, to get speedy with your clearances, opt for a Crit focus for your stats. This is because of the Sharpshooter's general inclination toward Crit, especially with their skill Tripods we've listed above.

Welcome to the Sharpshooter, formerly known as Hawkeye on the Russian servers. This class specializes in long-range attacks with a variety of perfect-zone abilities and one or two melee cooldowns to utilize when you need to get up close and perso

In terms of PvE, the Soulfist relies heavily on the Awakening skills to deal damage. However, if you miss with this skill (which, by the way, is easier than you think), you're going to be waiting around doing tickle-level numbers of damage until your cooldown is refres

In terms of the Scrapper's gauge, she has two: a Yellow bar and a Green bar. Yellow skills boost the yellow bar, green boosts the green bar. These are Stamina and Shock skills. The skills do different things, usually determined by your Engravings. We will go into detail about this below.

So, should you play as the Artillerist? If you like big explosions and impactful abilities then this is the class for you. Honestly, the Artillerist just feels fun to play , and rather than just all show, the class stays relevant site into the majority of endgame content, even if the abilities can get a bit tricky to land on late-game bosses.

Bonus damage based on your amount of Shock meter when the ability is activated

This is a sample PvE build for the Scrapper, based on the Shock Engraving. There are also two options for the Awakening skills.

Both of these class Engravings require a specific build. That includes what other Engravings you run with the class. To keep it simple without diving too much into specific builds (we will have an advanced build guide for the Sharpshooter available at a later date), here's a sample set of recommended Engravings that can work on both class Engraving bui

Cone-shaped explosion, longer cooldown (+4s), and extra 100% damage to Challenge or lower enemies

Awakening Skill - Golden Eye. Both Engravings are viable, but Golden Eye often finds itself in Dungeon-clearing builds thanks to its massive AoE output. It's faster than Fenrir's Messenger, the other class Engraving, and doesn't need to be charged up. Instant hit for lots of damage. Can't really go wrong with it.
