Marksman

|
TheMarksman (Japanese:
The defining characteristic of Marskmen is their exceptionalaccuracy with their bows, since they tie with theTrueblade andAssassin for the highest maximumskill stat amongbeorc classes inRadiant Dawn. Between that skill stat and a natural bonus to theircritical rate, they also have an impressivecritical hit chance. Their other offensive stats are good, and their offensive prowess is improved further by gaining a boost to theirrange when fighting with ordinary bows, giving them the unique ability to attack up to three spaces away even if they are not wielding a longbow. However, they keep the standard vulnerability of bow-wielding units where, unless they are wielding acrossbow or theDouble Bow, they cannot attack at melee range at all and cannot respond if enemies attack them close-up in enemy phase.
