Ranger template

[Tiawhyn]

Hey guys. Recently got back from my 6 month holiday on Gaheris (us coop) and want to finally finish my ranger suit. I know there are a sh*tload of ranger temps flying around but this one has got stuff in it I already have. I'm pretty happy with it, only thing i regret is the low dex overcap with my bow out, and that I had to lower my matter resist to overcap hits so I don't take a hit while swapping bow for melee.

Sorry to bother you with another "lookie here at my temp" questions but would love to here recomendations or tips. Anyway here it is.

[Vodkafairy]

som is a must really, the proc is so incredibly strong its silly not to get

 

[Formia]

Agree , som is needed ^^^^^,

 

[walowalo]

might aswell post my template here instead of making new thread, just finished first make today so probably still something I missed and not quite done, should cover most resists very good except for matter and energy which I'll doubt many use as weaptype? problems are I couldn't work any +cd into template, just +9 stealth and no really toa-bonuses for melee :\

Doesn't the blade shadow vanish after you log? If so you need to wait at least 15 mins just to summon it from CTD :9

 

[Spamb0t]

who needs som-proc when u can stand inside a tower safe from all melee?!?!!???!! wooohoooooOOOO!!!!!

You don’t have to use the shade form proc, however i could recommend the Stealth Lore proc for rangers will come handy

 

[Raven]

not a bad template at all for an easy to get one, though you may want to look at changing the bow, there are a couple with 10 dex cap, though i imagine they are quite rare and or pricey. ofc you would lose the 3% archery bonuses.
I also agree SoM is a must on any soloer for both the proc and the stealth lore.

 

[censi]

I just done 3 templates.

first is blade melee template with capped str, con, hitcap, all the melee % up there and resists good to. has WH, SOM, malice main, ml10 off, battler 2hand. If your celt or shar and want all out melee this is the way to go, works for luri but imo aug str 3-4 needed. Ill send it you if you like. (purge 3 a must with blade temp though)

second template is GS and castas, SOM, no WH, Malice or battler 2hand. no bow. 25 dex 25 str 20 con 160 hitcap. It stretches the limits of what can be achived real nice template. Again for melee really but would work ok for 35 bow spec. Was getting annoyed at crappy damage V resist buffed targets. This has the disadvantage of assasins being resistent to the damage type and rival archers possibly having PD (although PD is becoming less used (AOM fotm))

3rd temp is duel heaters. WH, SOM, malice or battler 2hand. 20 str 20 dex 20 con 160 hits. nice resists and melee %. room for some tweekage if you insist on those 25 str/dex caps. This is prolly the best melee offense. The aim of the template is for you to be able to gun down assasin in melee without burning RA's. SOM (10 min dur) and WH (5 min dur) /use2's being active all times (one or other maybe both). imo its all about dick swinging with assasins thats important.

or you could go spirit main bladeshadow offhand. This is what I use now. Got some serious downsides but more often than not stealthers neglect spirit (or matter can be swapped in). Having to summin balde shadow from CTD is not an issue. Before you log just swap it in. Go take a dump and then finish logout. When you loggin next day its up in 5 mins.

All these templates neglect spirit matter and energy in the SC. (although the un SC'd parts still boost these rests up average of around 10-15.)

Will happily send them to you. imo melee is the most enjoyable spec for ranger.

possibly not the most effective generally in terms of ability to pull in RP's, but imo Bow is just shit. Mages love trading with archers at range, one they QC and go into unload mode you either run or steam in, running not always an option V pet classes. I just find it more effective to start on them in melee. V tanks bow damage sucks, blocks etc, and its nice to go toe to toe with melee classes and blast them down (be prepared to burn things to compete though)
