Thanks for your answer, have you tried to get ride of the crit nodes and take more dmg nodes, like increased elem dmg/phy dmg aswell, or more ev nodes (there's 2 good ev wheel nodes between ranger and shadow) or life or even trying to get max frenzy charge ?
If yes why did you choose to go for crit (34% is quite low even with the "Hits can't be evaded" due to the bow) ? Better overall dps, better gameplay .... ?! How does Point Blank goes with Rain of Arrow as, well, your projectiles are never at start of their movement i think (it may be wrong, i'm not sure, just logic would suggest that it's an indirect fire so your projectiles are never at start of their movement when reaching the target), does it work with the distance between you and the target like for a direct fire ? Thanks. |

" The nearby available ele dam/phy damage nodes are not worth the point investments to get there. Crit affects all damage equally. Evasion nodes are generally terrible as you need an insane amount to go up even 1% more. I believe I have taken every Life node worth taking without sacrificing damage as well. As it is I have 5.5k Life, more than enough for me to solo any 78 maps. I haven't done 79 maps yet cos I currently have no maps at all to even beginning farming ): For physical, crit and crit damage is the easiest and most convenient way to deal damage. Point Blank works with RoA like any other projectile, where the "movement" starts at your starting point and ends where the middle of the RoA shower lands. IGN : Ericaa

Thanks for sharing your great build but i just wonder why do you take point blank? Isn't range the strength of a ranger? So if I take point blank, my dps will be lower if shooting from far. And would recommend you to take the three life nodes besides pain attunement coz they r quite near to your skill tree i think. Thanks. ^^

" I take point blank as I play very aggressively. With Evasion and a good amount of Life, I can stand face to face with almost anything and deal extra damage and survive no problems. Take a look at some of my gameplay vids to get an idea of how I play :D The Life nodes near Pain Attunement would require a further 4 levels, and realistically a very tiny fraction will ever reach lvl 97 (currently 93) :) IGN : Ericaa

After reading many ranger builds, I have to say your build is the top 3 best build available now after patch especially in terms of price-performance ratio. It inspires my build too. Thanks. Keep up the good work. Cheers. ^^
