By ‘stealth archer equivalent’ I mean the stereotypical easy/newbie or basic bitch way to play the game. It may be easy to pivot to and get stuck in a rut of playing that way.
I thought about this while playing Balatro. I kept trying to do creative combinations like Stone Joker and Marble Joker to see how far I could go with stone cards and pairs but pretty much always end up doing 8 Ball flushes.
This is one of the reasons why I like roguelikes, although I guess a re-spec feature in an RPG also allows this: You can just try all kinds of different builds.
I might play the stealth archer in one run. Then in the next run, I’ll play a tall-ass archer who gets seen from far away but also sees as far. And then I might get fed up with playing an archer, so I’ll play an ant whacking monsters with a zweihänder and a shield in the other hand pair.
