+1I certainly do not want mages or rogues or any class nerfed at all , I just think ranger was left a bit behind in this update , hopefully we can get it resolved now and not in update 5 :p

Re: Current State of Rangers
#73I agree with the first post and every one of eliminaters posts. I am currently a 165 ranger and still leveling. Lots of you say bolas is awesome and rangers can solo, but with no damage whats the point? We get outdpsed insanely by rogues and mages and its is really irritating me. I have been playing this game since version 1 and i have loved rangers, but slowly they have been getting worse and worse. Im also curious why admin wont respond to anything even though it is obviously a serious issue and something needs to be resolved. Untill rangers are better, i am putting all plat purchases on halt. I hope admin will read these posts and even rangers out with the rest of the growing classes.

Re: Current State of Rangers
#75Bullcrap. that "free" camo charm has to be maxed if you want it to work on high level enemies, meaning you end up pouring a crapload of points into it. theres nothing "free" about that.and rangers have a free camo charm as a skill as well.

Re: Current State of Rangers
#78Any Admins going to bother replying? I'd really like to see what you have to say about the various nerfs you have inflicted upon us rangers in this update while buffing up other classes. What are your motives? Do you hate rangers?
Re: Current State of Rangers
#79Not true... rangers were ahead of rogues if they had the right gear. They were also ahead of warriors and I think they still are ahead of rangers but don't quote me on that.Last update rangers were already the worst dps class and we complained about it, and now, its even made worse.
I hope something will change soon, because as said, rangers have some nice skills but only when they are maxed. A dps boost would be very very nice, and please make light heal heal its normal hp in PvP!

Re: Current State of Rangers
#80What game have you been playing Marco? A lack of balance.... I have about the best stuff you can get in the game for a ranger and i have Never hit for over 12k in 2 hits on any mob at my level are higher. Some of us don't even have a shot at attacking mobs before a mage completely destroys the mobs. Not that its abad thing when leveling:) but really you don't think mages need to be twicked a little?Mages didn't get any boost. Those 8k skill hits take a loong time to recharge so the DPS isn't that great. Also they probably have 50/35 points into it an 1000+ focus.
My mage gets out dps'd by rogues all the time now. Now I wonder how many of the beta testers *cough* avalon *couogh* were rogues?
Have you not been playing since update or something ? Mages are destroying every class with dps , it's not even close .
Now to the op , I couldn't agree more . I wouldn't even mind being a secondary dps if our support skills were good enough but sadly they are second rate . Sure sharpen weapons is decent but remember it's pierce damage so it is highly resisted it does not come close to poison weapon as far as total dps . I have not used steady much in live game but lasti had checked in beta it wasn't nerfed although I could certainly be wrong about that . Defensive spikes and sharpen weapons would be great support skills if rangers had assassins lure lol it's messed up that to be a great support toon we need another support toon to make it possible. In be tai also recommended rapid shot be made an aoe group skill , this would help tremendously with making rangers a better support player .
Currently there is a lack of balance between the classes , I have faith that otm will make adjustments .
What skills are mages using to destroy everyone in DPS?
I'm pretty sure none of the skills have a higher true dps than shards or firebolt...
