Default Re: Range slot?

Man this one was really brutal to read...

You can use either, bows will get you more autoattack DPS overall and our two CAs that require a pouch are pretty weak. Some people just use whatever benefits their melee the most (i.e. VP pouch with melee crit). It's mostly a matter of preference, but if you're raiding zones that require max range and only care about dps, your best bet is a bow.

Also if you are going to keep asking questions like this, you don't have to make a new thread every time.

Default Re: Range slot?

easy said:

if u have to kite aoes or get knockbacked sometimes a bow is better cause u shoot boom 3-9k crit and go in melee again

if u have a long ranged fight, pouches do better cause they hit more often, believe it or not i tested it on milyex :D

i use atm a pouch cause mine hase int, more str but less hp then rigid scale bow and i dont use often ranged auto attack... basically never cause i stay in aoes with sta 4-4-8 and about 12-13k hp in raid + i stay at walls when knockback mobs like protectors realm are incoming

What is a better choice for a swashbuckler in the ranged slot?, a Bow or a throwing weapon? Please explain the pros and cons of both to me.

If there is a link to my question somewhere that goes over what I asked, please link it in this topic also.

I will continue to look for the answer to my question though.

Thank you.

That translation was amazing Oro.

Personally I use a pouch, being able to use my ranged snare attack is invaluable on a PvP server. If I were on a PvE server, I'd definitely look into a good bow. If you go with a pouch, try for one of the treasured pouches with like +50 to int and str.

I go with the Draconic Pouch of the Knight... 52 str 38 int HP/PWR it is a good pouch that allows you to use your CA's and gives you a good amount of STR and INT and it does a good amount of HP and PWR tacked on to it also..

Now the only bow that i will replace this pouch with is the True Shot Recurve. But that is still to come for me to get.

I prefer jousting with my dragonhawk, but when the VP changes go in I'll probably slap a 12 DPS adornment on my bandolier of flowing lava for the melee crit even though the 25 meter range is lame.
