Starting a hunter ...

[Ranger]

may seem noob'ish, but ive heard many people say differant ways on how to use the starting 10 stat points ...

what do you think ?

10 str , 10 dex, 10 con ?? (ive heard its best to leave qui as its easily capped)

its going to be a norse - using spear/bow (bow mainly ofc)

thanks

15 dex, 5 con and 5 str sounds good to me

Yes do that, qui is very easy to cap (cap at 250, but every 1 point of qui after 250 is 1/2 the value of one point, so 252 would be effectively 251)

I thought every point above 10 distributed in a stat cost more than 1, as in 15, 5, 5 is not possible? I'm probably wrong, but play around with it xD

Would stick to your original Idea of 10 str / con / Dex. You will need and use both. Str effects your 2h Weapon Skill so as to make you do more Damage and Also your enemys will evade / parry / block you less. Dex is obviously very important as it acts for 50% of your 2h weapon damage and 100% of your bow damage. The Con you'll need to keep alive of course

Think if I could change my norse hunter i'd go 15 dex, 10 str. Hunters are all about damage (or kiting), if you toe to toe with someone you have got to dish out the damage cause you sure can't take it. That 10 points of con is worth no more than 40 hp's. Also it is much, much easier to get those 40 hp's on SCing than it is to find 10 str cap and 85 str.

But then it doesn't matter that much, I went 10/10/10 str/con/dex and my stat's look ok.

every point above 10 costs 2 instead of one 15+5+5 is possible since 15+5+5=25.

15 (the first 20points) 5+5 (the last 10)

Some people tell me str is useless, so dont bother, and some of you are saying that str is important for a hunter ..... some guy i spoke to said bow is 100% dex based, so str is not needed .... ?

so its either ....

10 str, 10 con and 10 dex

or

15 dex, 5 con, 5 str

or

15 dex, 10 con

or

15 dex , 10 str


lol, i spose i wont matter too much what i put my points in, but im just curious now

Bow is dex based, but these days its damn hard to kill anything solo without entering melle, hence 10 str is handy. Also unless you get lifter, youll find yourself limited in the amount of arrows u can carry if you go kobbie, not much of a problem for norse. IMO going 10str, 10 dex, 10 con is prudent for a good all rounder.
