Archer
You have no crowd control to fall back on and no natural lifesteal, so once the horde closes in you must keep landing shots to outpace the damage coming back.

Legacy
Sylvara, Warden of the Whispering Boughs (Elf)
The elves heard the dungeon chewing at the roots of their eternal forest long before any human felt it, and Sylvara went below to silence it. Her arrows never missed, not even the final one, loosed in the instant the dark took her. Reborn in her legacy, you will see the kill before the enemy sees you.
