🚩 Combat Role: Rally Leader vs. Far-Left Rally Joiner
✓ As Primary Rally Starter (Rally Lead):
Premier Generation 2 Archer hyper-carry (unlocked via Hall of Heroes) that replaces Saul in your primary march. Ideal for leading your own Bear Hunt rally with a Gen 2 ~10/20/70 (Infantry/Cavalry/Archer) formation.
🐻 As Rally Joiner (Far-Left 1st Slot):
Always use Marlin in your own primary rally or main PvP march so his full Archer Lethality gear and Expedition skills apply.

Mythic Archer Set (max Helmet & Boots first with Forgehammers and Dragon Gems for Archer Lethality/Attack) + Archer Governor Charms
