Re: New Ranger Needs Advice
AA LINES PRED.
agil. int. str. take end ability in agil some debate on str vrs int end ability i have tried both and depends on your grp and raid setup. int end line seems to the majority.
AA RANGER
Take the focus line, poison line,and double attack line . The rest you can either spread between your roots or pathfinding or (god forbid) SOA
STATS
str,int ,agil is only for power pool. Some sta and wis.
CA cycle
There are some post here on this. It mostly a preference and depends on your bow. With 9 sec delay it aa then 2 cas then aa rinse repeat. You can however throw in a few. I use coverage i havent had much trouble using it, some however hate the spell, but it does help on stealth fire and sniper . Some will tell you sniper not worth it. Timed at the end of a fight ,with the mob low on hit points it has it uses.
GEAR
Non raid gear. There alot of gear and has been discussed in alot forums, but u want to mix range crit,range da,haste adornments ,same as before, str int dps mod haste. I carry a couple each of piece for resist, but again resist arnt a high priority as str and int and crit and da stuff. Trooper scale boots are nice. Some quest reward and merchant faction stuff is nice. Get faction in tarens grasp, get quest for earing of waste hunter, thugga neck from quest.
Last bit advice for raiding, carry arrows for what your going after. I currently use 2 , field and bodkin. Field on yellow and up mobs , (ie most raid zones ) bodkin on places like Pr. Raiding as ranger means one thing. Out dps the avg mages and scouts. Cause a good mage or a well played brigand ,swashy, gona be equel to you in rok. IMO. I personally dont top the parse in my guild in most raid zones with a sickass assassin, good warlock , awesome brigand, a very well played necro, so it depends on those around you. But i can and do hold my own. Enough to be wanted on raid anyway.
Have not yet raided VP, but close , so i have to let others tell you thier horror stories from there.
This has been discussed in length in these forums. I would like to however here about what some the top rangers are using for ca cycles. I has been a while and alot changes to spells have come about.
