RoK AA, What is the NOW the best setup?

Well most of you high end rangers have had plenty of time to parse this out during the beta and now over the first week and a half of release. What is the new spec?

Max crits, Poise, and Intoxication. Now there is a toss up between intoxication and perfectionist which I cant decide atm, but thats about the only thing changing there. EoF = Conservation, Extension, Double Arrow, where ever the fuck you feel like it.

The Spell crits in the int line are definitely worth it, but look at it from a broad perspective I think overall perfetionist would be a more viable end line ability. Right now with Auto Attack spacing, even with the 5 second reducer to snaring shot (It doesn't bring that much dps) the overall benefit of Perfectionist with the 15% bonus and time reducer to veiled fire, selection, and rain of arrows will probably be more worth it.

You'd probably have to find someone to really crunch the #'s to see which one is ultimately better, but I for one like any kind of recast reducer on our big spells.

Other thoughts?

Sorry sir, but Perfectionist only works for CAs with 2 mins or more recast (and not so for buffs), so only 2 CAs are affected by that: Sniper Arrow and Shower of Arrows.

lol.

hexus is right +snipers shot

Safana · 11-23-2007, 10:23 AM

Are you fucking kidding? Selection has 1min recast and Veiled Fire has 1min30 recast. So it IS NOT affected by Perfectionist, which says attack based combat arts with recast of 2min or more. So please delete your ranger now!

Wow. Safana is correct, it only effects Shower of Arrows and and Sniper Arrow. Way to fucking fail.

Exel1 · 11-23-2007, 06:30 PM

hm when i had perfectionist before i thought it effected veiled fire but i guess you are indeed right
