Talk:Archer (Fate/stay night)

message: I’m planning on adding these two (Well, three) to the NP list, but I’ve hit a bit of a stump: I can’t find any information on the daggers’ origins and the only thing I’ve see about the shield is Arai’s mention of Hector (So I guess it was Achilles’ shield?). I could just plug them in there without the mythic information, but I’d like to be sure.
Also, once/if this is done I think it’d be proper to add them to Shirou’s article as well. Ephyon 16:27, 18 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've taken the liberty of expanding on these items, as well as noting that they are Noble Phantasms not inside of Gate of Babylon. K&B have had an expansion on their legend (it's a real legend, too), and I've added educated guesses as to the ranking of the various Noble Phantasms using the tabulated parameter table on arai's website. RA is C++, HRN is C+, and CALAD is D+. 169.237.238.251 21:10, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Here's a problem. Since all of Archer's Noble Phantasms are traces, we have inconsistencies with the other pages, id est, K&B, Caladblog, and Rho Aias are all one rank higher than what we have down here, but that isn't reflected in the tracing values. Furthermore, if we are to put down Caliburn, which can only be a B+ Noble Phantasm as traced by Shirou [Excalibur (A++) > Caliburn > God Hand (No damage for B or less), factoring in maximum trace of B++, it must be B+], how would we illustrate that? 169.237.238.251 00:51, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Is Archer literally Shirō? Or an alternate version of Shirō? I know what the article says. I just
find it confusing (if im interpreting the article correctly). -- 70.101.126.172 22:01, 29 August 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Identity 

message: Be so kind to excuse the title. There's a bit of a problem with the ability section:
Once a Noble Phantasm has been produced, Archer commonly uses traditional Tracing to alter the weapon into a black arrow. In some instances, Archer does not proceed to this extra step, provided the Noble Phantasm he produced is aerodynamic enough to be fired.
Actually, that's mostly ok, the problem is that Archer doesn't have THAT much preference for... well, archering. We know that Caladbolg and Hrunting are fired as arrows, but he's also using K&B and the Overedge (Which Nasu made canon) in melee just as much if not more.
What I'm saying is that even if the above statement is correct, Archer doesn't use the bow and the Broken Phantasms all that much, yet the present article makes it sound as if that were his standard battle strategy. Right now I don't have the will to reword it myself, but I just wanted to give a heads up because I eventually will if nobody else does. Ephyon 21:14, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

message: ::Does Archer have Caliburn? I'd imagine he would since he won the war with Saber and knows her identity; even if he can't use Avalon, at one point he *should* have seen Caliburn, so I would imagine it to be in the back of his mind somwhere. Should we post it here? Terek 03:38, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think we should. He probably knows how to trace it of course, but he never does. In theory, he should also have stuff like Gil's Gram, but they are, if anything, treated as random bullets for the gatling-style UBW. I think we should stick to what is actually seen, as if that weren't enough of a mess by itself. Ephyon 08:27, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
