Archers hone their eye and draw their first bowstrings under the watch of either the Wyrdguard rangers of Faelindral or the Steel Talons of Night Harbor, depending on where they set out.
Faelindral: The Wyrdguard’s Marksmen
New Archers starting in Faelindral report to Captain Keyaryn Thornshade, who puts recruits through their paces before trusting them with a bow of their own. See the full breakdown on the Archer Starter Quest (Faelindral) page.
Night Harbor: Steele’s Sharpshooters
Archers starting in Night Harbor instead answer to Fedamius Steele III, who sets recruits on the path to becoming the Steel Talons’ eyes and arrows. Full details on the Archer Starter Quest (Night Harbor) page.
Tips for New Archers
Both starter chains are solo-friendly and low risk, so there’s no wrong choice between zones early on — pick whichever starting city matches the character concept or race you’re playing. Either path sets you up with your first pieces of gear before you’re ready to head into the wider world of Eth-Ur.
