Archer Recommended Party Members

Party Member Reason for Recommending
FranFran Fran's default role--if the promotional images are to be believed--is as an archer. Fran is one character that doesn't stand out tremendously in all stats, yet she can fit into any job available, much like Vaan. A party isn't complete without a long-range expert that rains terror from afar, and Fran best suits that role, if no one else.
BalthierBalthier Based on the promotional images, Balthier should be a Machinist. However, that doesn't mean that he cannot be an Archer. Based on his stats, Balthier could slip effortlessly into another long-range role, and the Archer has some pretty nice weapons with good damage. Couple that with Balthier's affinity for inflicting combos and you've got a heavy-damaging long-ranged threat.
