[edit] Prospects
The Archer is a good base for the long-range side of your team, until you gain access to Gunners, or Snipers. They're an essential part of a balanced party.
The Hume archer can become a Hunter after learning 2 Archer A-abilities.
The Viera Archer can become a Sniper once 2 Archer A-abilities have been learnt. Also of note, the Concentrate support ability is perhaps the most useful one available to an offensively oriented viera, in collabaration with the Assassin's skills, it yields great effect.
[edit] Equippable Items
Archers can equip only the basic of clothing and hats; Viera archers can equip ribbons. They use basic 2-handed bows as a weapon, and as such do not use shields.
