Ya I saw that but...for this to be usefull you really need to specialize in spear and pick support skills that go well with it like entangle and defensive spikes.

i feel like I'm just too good at this game...someone slap me

Or bored ?


Also, unless you're planning on going "support" Later, why is your Str higher than your Dex? Most of your support skills are Dex based. Also, IMO, you should max both spear and bow. Some fights won't need the kind of support a ranger can give, but all fights will want more DPS.

well its a dps support hybrid, a lot like my melee support mage.

only one dps skill to max.

rest into support skills.

then a split between str and dex, balanced how i see fit to be the most effective at my given level i guess.

eventually i'll get a trident of the void and golden poison dagger.

Any this should out dps a bow since I only have rapid shot, and the spear damages are much better than bow and melee offhands add much more damage than quivers.

I LOVE THIS POST! lol , someone else smells what the rock is cookin! I just hit lvl 63 and feel like a powerhouse with my spear ranger. I occaisionally get the hater wispering me saying something along the lines of " hey noob, go get yourself a bow", well I'll see what level of mob they are killing and then In front of them I'll kill one thats two or three levels higher and wisp them back "hey noob, go get yourself a spear", lol (at least I think that is funny). Its definitely a specialized build, everything you do has to rotate on the fact that you use a spear, but it works. We are not range fighters, but melee fighters, its a different mind set. Its a different skill set, and a different set of gear....but we are still rangers. I believe we are the reason that entangle and spikes came out, because they really work well with spear rangers. I'm really glad that someone else has given it a try and loves it as much as I do. Gratz bro

If OTM ever (IMO) Fixes the stats and how they work with specific classes, and make the class itself more Dex based (i.e. our dmg coming from Dex, and not Str like everyone else, including Mages... ), I won't mind trying this build as well, tho I'd probably go for a more... Tank/Support role, like with Shield instead of an offhand.

There is no point to spear once you reach level 60 and can buy knucks.

2 reasons:

1. rapid
2. shot
