Oracle Build Guide

From Archero 2 Wiki and Guides

Archero 2 Oracle Build will highlight best combination of Gear.pngGear, Runes.pngRunes, Rapid Fire.pngSkills for the Tracking based build that is focused on main weapon damage. It's part of Archero 2 Guides series, where you can find the rest of the guides on the game.

The oracle Build is based on using main weapon projectiles/beams paired with tracking eye+main weapon skills to deal damage to the enemies. It can function as both a short range or long range build making it very flexible and allowing you to choose many different dps booster skills. You can move closer to deal maximum damage if you have skills such as Corrosive Field.pngCorrosive Field, or as said you can keep distance which will allow you to be further away from the enemies and have easier time avoiding the incoming projectiles and damage.

Oracle Build Pros:

  • Arguably the best build for both early, mid and end game chapter/sky tower clearing
  • Great Long- and short- range damage
  • Distance from enemies that allows to avoid unnecessary damage
  • Allows for more time to read Bosses movement and attack patterns
  • High utilization of Combo bonuses for Echo Armor.pngEcho and Oracle Light Spear.pngOracle sets
  • Usage of the "Tracking Eye" skill leads to easier clearing of crowded enemies
  • Easy to use and learn

Oracle Build Cons:

  • Very reliant on Tracking Eye skill

Skills[edit source]

For the Oracle Build you would like to take most of the +ATK and +ATK SPD Rapid Fire.pngSkills that you come across. Focusing on extra projectiles is also a good idea since that synergises well with the Tracking Eye.pngTracking Eye skill which you are aiming to get.

If you have Tracking Eye.pngTracking Eye your projectiles will become homing projectiles and will try to follow the enemies. It makes Diagonal Arrows.pngDiagonal Arrows a great DPS enhancing source. If you use either the staff or spear main weapon or have the Energy Beam.pngEnergy Beam skill your shots will pierce enemies automatically. If you for example use the dragoon xbow/bow you will need the Piercing Arrow.pngPiercing Arrow skill for tracking eye to be more effective against larger crowds of enemies.

If you have a lot of Diagonal Arrows.pngDiagonal Arrows or the Backward Arrow.pngBackward Arrow skill, they may hit the wall. having the Bounce Arrow.pngBounce Arrow skill helps ensuring the attack always hits the enemy, even if it's in front of or far away from the player.

Energy Beam.pngEnergy Beam is great with this build, especially if you use a non-beam weapon. The main drawback that it will cause your attacks to have charge up. It can be mitigated by properly increasing ATK SPD or picking Weapon Enchantment.pngWeapon Enchantment. Weapon Enchantment.pngWeapon Enchantment is a debatable skill to pick though since it significantly lowers the ATK and ATK SPD, resulting in lower DPS, but it allows you to keep moving and shooting at the same time which can make it really valuable for harder Boss fights or chapters.

Gear[edit source]

You can use both Echo Armor.pngEcho and Oracle Light Spear.pngOracle sets for the Tracking Build Gear.pngGear.

Echo/Oracle sets will most likely yield the most crowd damage and will help massively in chapters and sky tower. It will also deal great boss damage, but if you have the Dragon Knight Crossbow.pngDragoon xbow/bow you can increase your single target damage even further by swapping it for staff/spear.

The Dragon Knight Crossbow.pngDragoon xbow/bow has superior target damage as opposed to oracle, but it can be problematic to defeat larger hordes of enemies as it does not have pierce built in. As said earlier, if you have the pierce skill the Dragon Knight Crossbow.pngDragoon xbow/bow can also deal good damage, but it will also lack the combo boosts which you get from oracle gear unless you use it with Echo Armor.pngEcho or Oracle Light Spear.pngOracle gear. That is why it is recommended to use spear/staff instead in PvE content as it will help a lot vs regular mobs and you dont need to open Dragoon chests.

As said for the weapon it's possible to go with either Beam Staff.pngBeam Staff/Oracle Light Spear.pngOracle Light Spear or Heroic Longbow.pngHeroic Longbow/Dragon Knight Crossbow.pngDragon Knight Crossbow. Staff will provide additional Combo based bonuses and add Beam attack from the start, while Arrow weapons will add a bit of extra DMG. Early on Dragon Knight Crossbow.pngDragon Knight Crossbow is a great option since it can be acquired from the Carnival.pngCarnival Event. Later on it will depend on your play style and pick of the gear.

Runes[edit source]
