Thanks for the input and opnions guys ! I went full Dex and didn't do as near as much dmg as full auto ,I believe I'll continue to the path of a str Ranger

how can half of you even tell that a full str build is better for bossing, how can you tell you have enough attack? I have alot of attack and still use dex to boost it higher because its just not enough in my opinion and from my experience. boosting your attack over a damage that is 90% resisted is going to improve your dps. if you were to ask for my opinion i would say dont sacrifice damage once you have over 12k attack on lix. until then your high damage that misses is not helping you

For bossing at end game, I agree with Demon. More attack is always better than more strength. If you have more than 300-400 strength including gear boosts, full dex is more helpful than str.

For leveling though, 6k attack is enough to almost never miss so an auto build is better.

6k strength?

He means attack

my ranger atm is actually full dex but i dont use any of the crap ranger damage skills.

i do this because without the added dex i cant get high enough dex to do decent damage on EG bosses due to my ranger sadly lacking proteus braces atm because im saving for the rare top tiers


Do i still get kills?
occasionally yes i can get kills even with just dex although a majority of our kills go to Dem0n

brace swaps still work for him? Quickswap cdr gear had worked for my mage in the past, until I got a godly double attack brace for my warrior and it didn't work anymore. I pmed muldar about it and next day quickswaps also stopped working on mage lol

This is a different topic. I understand the whole gear swapping to reset cooldowns of dl skills. This is not resetting a cooldown, instead it uses a cooldown reduction item during casts and swaps to a different item in between skill casts

Hey BlackMamaba,

This was a intended change quite awhile back to deal with the item cool down breaking which was not an intended feature of the game.

More details from myself and Esq can be found here. viewtopic.php?f=6&t=79690&hilit=cooldown



cooldown items

I'm having an issue with a cooldown reduction item. My mage has a couple (dark firebolt skull, godly iceshards charm, royal necro firestorm brace, and a couple other skulls). When I equip one of those cdr items and cast the corresponding skill, you can see in the skill cooldown bar that it has been reduced by 20/25/30 percent. During the cooldown, if you swapped to a different item, you would keep the cooldown reduction effect. Same thing when you swap back to the original item; basically if you're clever and feel like it is worth the effort, you can use the effects of both items at the same time. This is useful when for instance I am freezing mobs as a lure mage, so that I can keep the useful focus and fire magic ability from a mord grim and still have a decreased cast time on freeze by timing by quickswaps and skill casts correctly.

If any of that doesn't make sense to you, I could record a video and email it to you to show how it works

So knowing how the reduction items work on my mage, I spent a great deal of my dkp points on a godly necro double attack bracelet for my warrior (reduces double cooldown by 30%). So as you could imagine, I was dismayed when this item did not work the same way. I would hotbar double attack brace, cast double attack skill, then swap to a different brace for melees in between. Up to this point everything works as expected; the cooldown was 30% shorter and when I swapped to the other brace it continued to decrease at the same point. But when I switched back to the necro brace the cooldown jumped back up 30%, negating the usual cooldown effect.

I tested a variety of things to try to find out what was going on; both toons were on the same device. I tested skulls braces and charms on mage for many skills, all worked fine. I changed device settings. I changed fashion. I tried different hotbar locations and pages. None of this worked. Regardless of what I tried, my cooldown swap method did not work for the double attack brace on warrior but it did work for every skill and item on mage.

Any idea why this may be?

Never got a reply after my second email. Makes sense, why would otm do something to improve dps? More dps-> quicker kills -> less plat ->less money

My double shot necro brace fast swaps fine
