Archers stand out of harm's way, raining arrows upon their foes from afar.
Description

The Archer Job class is available to Humes and Viera in Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift. Archers are well known for their long-range attacks via bow-wielding in combat. They are very useful units that allow you to inflict damage on the first turn. Their Focus ability prepares a powerful attack, while several other abilities inflict status effects upon enemies.

A useful ability against undead is Burial, which removes undead from battle entirely and thereby prevents their resurrection. An Archer works best with a strong melee unit acting as a protective shield to stop incoming enemies. By mastering three Archer A-abilities, Humes can become Hunters, while Viera can become Snipers with two Archer A-abilities.
