What's the best way to take out an archer.

Obviously going straight for them is useless as they'll jsut keep shooting you.

I found blocking and jumping etc too slow as they not only shoot you when ur not blocking, but then they jump away.

And if there are two of more facing you, apart from running away, is there much you can do?

If you have two or more targeting you, then you should have an ally or two around. That means that two people are focusing on you, which allows your teamates to focus on someone else. One way to handle it is to place constant pressure on them for as long as possible. That means blocking/dodging, staying close and scaring them so they stick to you. That allows your team the chance to keep fighting the others without fear of arrow fire.

One of the better ways to hit archers when they are dting you is to do quick and unexpected jump attacks. Make sure they aren't obvious, and make sure to hit your target.

If it's just one archer, then quick blocks and random pattern movement are your best bet. Without the presence of bugging they are a rather easy target overall. Fighting an archer relies on quickness. Quick attacks, quick steps, quick blocks, etc. As you improve, you can often land special attacks against an attacking archer as well. That is an incredibly useful tool, especially if you are specialized in special attacks.

If you're anywhere near an archer, and they just shot an arrow, they will block for a short amount of time. Grip them for me.

NEVER jump to dodge, they will just shoot your landing.

Good point on the jump. I've been killed that way by a good archer, but crap ones don't even thnk of it.

lol yea, make them miss an arrow once or twice and then delay your swing so they have time to block it

then after that charge up your special and they'll try to block it xD
