I DO NOT recommend the quivers which have low damage but a haste bonus. From there keep upgrading throughout the lux shops. Then, buy a quiver from the otherworld lux shop. From 1-50, if you have the money buy a quiver from Quigley, mostly for the regeneration. Buy the best bows you can at higher levels and use the dragonlord bow when you have it.įor offhands, buy quivers at different level checkpoints. Buy an adamant bow if you have the money and go on from there. Stick to warden, meteoric and frozen meteoric bows from level 80 to 130. WEAPON & OFFHAND: Use whatever bow is best for you level. I would not recommend buying adamant, topaz or flint armour since it is expensive and not much better than warden gear.Īt higher levels, buy the armour which is best for your level. From 60 onwards, ALWAYS try to get warden gear, and then at level 80, try to get meteoric and then at 105 try to get frozen meteoric gear. Upgrade your armour as much as you can, try to get ancient gear from the shalemont trader and stonevale trader. Only recommended for farming.ĪRMOUR: For armour, just use what is available to you. Its damage is low and unreliable.Ĭamoflauge - : Not recommended since it is not a combat skill.Ĭonceal - : Definetly not recommended since it is a bad version of camoflauge which lasts less, even if it is for a group.īandage Wounds - : Since you have light heal which is a much higher heal, do not use this skill.ĭefensive Spikes - : Low damage and overall not very helpful.Įxplosive Arrow - : Low damage and the AOE could get more mobs than you want on you.
If you want to be more of a support ranger, use this.īarbed shot - : I strongly recommend NOT to use this skill. I would recommend EITHER using sharpen weapons OR steady aim for this build, not both.Įntangle + : Could be useful, but I think bolas is better for protecting yourself. Steady aim + : This is a nice skill to make your auto attacks and chance to hit higher, so your auto attacks do nice damage while you wait for your skills to reload. PERSONALLY I prefer steady aim, but I think it is fine to use either sharpen weapons OR steady aim in this build. Sharpen Weapons + : A nice skill to boost damage. I wouldn't highly recommend it for this build though. Upgrade it as much as you need to to keep it's effect able to effect around 10-15 levels higher than you are.ĭouble shot + : This skill is alright since you have points in strength, and even at level 1 can be used as a guaranteed auto attack. Helps damage (since you can keep longshotting) AND survivability. An amazing skill to keep your opponents at range and to keep being able to use longshot on them. I do not recommend levelling it up for this build since it relies on auto attacks which rely on strength.īolas ++ : A MUST USE SKILL. Rapid shot ++ : A good skill, I do not put any points in it but it is still a good skill at level 1 to allow a quick burst of auto attacks. High, consistent healing to keep you alive while fighting. Many rangers argue that its damage is too low, but when maxed and combined with high dex it provides high damage. Sharp shot ++ : This skill is also key for dex rangers. While you are using bolas this will provied constant high damage.
It provides massive damage, especially when its level is boosted with rings, and the pin is a nice addition. Longshot ++ : This skill is key for dex rangers. SKILLS IN ITALICS ARE JUST 'THE REST' WHICH I DON'T RECOMMEND USING, SO IF YOU DON'T LIKE READING, SKIP THOSE. SKILLS: ('+' means worth thinking about using, '++' means MUST use, '-' means not recommended.) So, as a summary for stats, VITALITY and FOCUS levels are your choice, but for this build put in tons of points in dexterity and the rest in strength. For vitality, you will not need too much, since a ranger has built in survivability skills, like bolas.
For focus, use as many points as you need, but don't waste too many it depends if you have regen items or not. Put in AS MANY POINTS AS YOU CAN in dexterity. So basically, have a little strength, enough to make your auto attacks do a decent amount of damage. This build is mainly a DEXTERITY-based, so for all of you strength rangers, this may not be the build for you. I believe my build allows the ranger ,which is commonly seen as an underpowered class, to inflict large amounts of damage while staying alive.
