Archer

The World
"Archer" is the name given to an unnamed theoretical class in The World. Players carrying quivers and bows make an appearance in .hack//SIGN, apparently using the bow and arrow as a primary weapon, but the lack of archers in any other series seems to imply that this is a mistake. There is no class capable of archery in .hack//frägment, and Albireo, who has been playing since Fragment, makes no reference to an archer class. The Archers could be a product of hackers, or simply an oversight by the animators.

Archers make appearances in the following SIGN episodes:
 * Entanglement
 * Declaration
 * Phantom

In Legend of the Twilight the Cerulean Knights are also archers. Three fire arrows at the modified PC's tied to Kamui's slot machine.
 * The Solitary Knight

The World R:X
In .hack//Link, Kite's Xth Form wields a bow.

The World FORCE:ERA
