Using leather will grant you more rounded resists (Magic/Physical) as well as higher crit and evasion chances, you will also gain trip reduction. Each one of these armors has their own advantages and disadvantages. As a Dark Runner, you have two choices: Leather and Plate. This does not mean to say that it is our only option. I think it is fair to say that the majority of Dark Runners chose leather. I am not claiming to be the best Dark Runner, but I think I have a lot of knowledge and experience that I can bring to the table and I’d love to share it with all of you. I also explored the various styles of playing these classes. I spent a lot of time playing both classes, as well as a few others. I began playing ArcheAge some months ago on the other regions servers, and played on the Alpha server for a long time where I primarily focused on both DaggerSpell and Dark Runner classes. I have been playing games for over 20 years now from all genres. What this really means is that I have always been a player who strives to be the best at what they do, and where competition is involved, participate in it. I’ve been a “competitive” gamer for most of my life. This guide will attempt to inform you about playing the Dual-Wield Darkrunner, from both a build and stylistic point of view.

This class is traditionally played as a 2H in-your-face burst class however, I have put my own spin on it and mixed things up. The Dark runner class is a melee-assassin who uses high mobility, high damage and elusiveness to lock down his targets and kill them. Questions and discussion, let’s keep this civilized. I would however like to keep this thread for the guide and keep it constructive. This guide is based on my own experiences and opinions, nothing is the law, if you don’t agree with something I say or do, that’s perfectly fine. ArcheAge Dual Wield Dark Runner Guide by Vlare
