Wildscout

The Explorer and Archer

A ranged sharpshooter and wilderness tracker who breaks Darkness Points from a distance, moves swiftly through terrain, and always knows where the danger is before it arrives.

Overview

Wildscouts explore the wide world with courage and curiosity. They're sharpshooters, trackers, and swift adventurers who always know the way home. When corruption begins spreading through Talestria's forests and mountains, the Wildscout is often the first to find it — and with a steady eye and a magic-tipped arrow, the first to start breaking it apart.

Suggested Species Pairings

Rabbit — Rabbits are lightning-fast with high Swift; combining Rabbit's burst movement with Quick Step and Silent Range makes a Wildscout who is practically impossible to pin down at range.
Owl — An owl's Night Sight, Silent Wings, and Keen bonus turns the Wildscout into an aerial sniper who can scout corrupted areas (Star Echo + Trail Sense), attack from darkness, and never be found.
