Ranger - Ranger builds list - Forum

Hello everyone, Quoting Bada_bing who manage many lists: I try to include only builds that have been played to ~ lvl 75-80 / played some mid-range maps (tier 7-10) to make sure the OP knows what he is talking about and avoid pure theorycrafts. A build should also contain more than just a linked tree + gear The other classes builds lists: Duelist builds list Marauder builds list Scion builds list Shadow builds list Templar builds list Witch builds list And here are some useful gem acronyms you will find in many of the guides below: LA: Lighting Arrow RoA: Rain of Arrow SA: Split Arrow TS: Tornado Shot AFD: Added Fire Damage BM: Blood Magic FA: Faster Attack PPAD: Physical Projectile Attack Damage SP: Slower Projectiles ICD: Increase Critical Damage ICS: Increase Critical Strikes PCoC: Power Charge on Critical LgoH: Life gained on Hit LL: Life Leech ML: Mana Leech LMP: Lesser Multiple Projectiles GMP: Greater Multiple Projectiles WED: Weapon Elemental Damage CwDT: Cast when Damage Taken EC: Enduring Cry IC: Immortal Call You can find old guides from previous leagues and/or major patches in second post.

Awesome idea, dude! A couple of the links are broken, but great start. Well done! :) I'd probably describe my CoC guide as "crit capped glass cannon mode" (well, as glass cannon as you can viably get for 75+ maps) with a guide for alternate set-ups to be tankier if needed. I'm not sure the best way to moosh that into a one line summary. XD	Posted by feyith#0081 on May 7, 2014, 10:31:14 AM Quote this Post
Fixed the 3 broken links and added that description to your guide. Ranger builds list: /917964 When two witches watch two watches, which witch watches which watch?

this is a great idea and very helpful for organization, as long as it stays on the front page type of thing. would be great to get stickied for each class discussion sub-forum. and hey look, my thread is on here! woot, ty muchly. its under melee builds, which my personal builds are but my initial post and focus is on a foundational focus through ranger start to make any build type viable and defensively strong. so if i may request to possibly add a description under the link such as, "Passive tree foundational layout for all ranger-starting builds." thanks again for the time and effort you put into this - hopefully it'll get recognized and properly merited by the forum mods	Posted by iRace82#5088 on May 7, 2014, 10:55:03 AM Quote this Post
Description added. That's the guide that made me lean toward evasion and acrobatics when I started my bow ranger ;) Ranger builds list: /917964 When two witches watch two watches, which witch watches which watch?

I think this was a great idea! However, i think more people will now want more recognition for their builds and stuff xD and may hassle you for the description of their guide. But if your good with that then its all good lol. edit: also From checking your profile i couldn't help but notice you out-leveled me! good show xD. IGN: Omjak "THIS WORLD... IS AN ILLUSION EXILE".

If you look at other classes builds lists, there's little to no description. And as I said in my 1st message, authors can leave a short description for their build(s), I'll add it(them). And yes, I've played quite a lot, and was lucky to get some good map sharing some times, which helped me tremendously, especially during 88 to 89. Not sure I will ever reach 90 :s.
