Thread: Dual wield ranger!

    ^ I don't think you can do better than this. There are no more melee feats. Going General is not an option...

    Stamina is not a problem - I don't remember drinking a lot of pots since sprint revamp. You can spam DS without any problems. On the other hand aggro will be even a smaller issue

    The worst thing to do is to play melee ranger as a first melee toon and get a wrong impression of AoC's melee.

    It's painfully boring playstyle for people who know what they're doing and just want teh lulz.

    yea... may be funny to join a t1 raid with a full t4 ranger with hidden equipment and crap vanity gear and make fun of some noobs, but nothing more than that....

    Well, when already standing next to boss in pve encounter use 1h to land upper/lower attacks before switching to deadly draw. Faster than shooting.

    hey - imo dual wield is must in certain situations as beigned ranger - first 2 additionall ccs - 8 sec root and kb/snare plus quite decent meele combo - i mean deft stabs 3 ofc

    so you never were hit by ds 3 for 800ish per hit? huh i was many Times, its really lethal combo - also i saw many rangers in game just playing s&s in pvp non stop but ofc best is to rotate and use as well bow/xbow plus ofc tigers 1h or t4 rangers 1h is must for extra combat rating on those combos from dex

    its always question of build but in past 1h combos were more usefull to proc marked target or simillar abilitites since they proced from all hits of combo now its just on proc per whole combo but still faster and when you are exp meele fighter you can get rid of disadvantage of running around other meeles you are fighting with ofc ranger got no second los check so its anyway ez to hit with ranged combos but as i said 1h combos are lethatl plus cripple 3 is just gozu

    yes im using all the time 1h&s combos on my ranger

    I made some tests a few months ago, with a hybrid build (Lethality in general), Tiger gear, Tiger sword and Hyrkanian dagger, and it went like ~1 200 on a strawman. That's decent for easy instances/raids, but definitely boring as you mainly cycle DS3 over and over.

    This is a little cleaner and has more utility.

    I find Immolation still works pretty well in PvP and PvE. Worth having. Given the Tiger sword, the boost to Dex from Survivalist gives you more damage output than Rending Strikes.

    And I've dropped the pointless aggro feats from Sharpshooter.

    i have to say that i have never tried anything like that, it was just something to try for fun, nothing serious...
    but indeed your build looks better!!

    just... if you want to try to go melee, get the t4 ranger sword!!
